Greetings from the [[WP:GOCE|Guild of Copy Editors]] [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2012|March 2012 Backlog elimination drive]]! Here's the mid-drive newsletter.</br>

'''Participation''':

We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2012#Participants|Join us]]!

'''Progress report''':

Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far.

'''Special thanks''':

Special thanks to [[User:Stfg|Stfg]], who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers.

Your drive coordinators – [[User:Diannaa|Dianna]] ([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]]), [[User:Stfg|Stfg]] ([[User talk:Stfg|talk]]), and [[User:Dank|Dank]] ([[User talk:Dank|talk]])<center><p><small>To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Mailing List|our mailing list]].</small></center>
