Feel free to share those cookies with me, and have a glass of milk to wash it down!

Thanks for the warm welcome, FourPaws! I'll look into the links you provided and the projects you suggested. This has a pretty steep learning curve, but hopefully you'll see me around more in the future! Ahkei (talk) 15:10, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Guild of Copy Editors c/e drive

Hi Ahkei, welcome to Wikipedia and the Guild of Copy Editors (GOCE). I'm a GOCE coordinator and I noticed you removed your sub-section at our current copy-edit drive. Regarding your edit summary, drives aren't just for GOCE Requests; you can claim credit for any extensive c/e you've done during the event, and a 50% word-count bonus for copy-editing articles from the oldest months in our backlog. Feel free to restore your subsection if you wish; thanks for your interest in the GOCE. Good luck and cheers, Baffle☿gab 23:34, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Reliable sources

Your effort to provide a source for the Robin White entry on December 10 is commendable, but please be sure that your sources are reliable. That particular source is clearly WP:USERG. "The Trading Card Database is an archive of trading cards and all things trading card related. It is maintained via crowdsourcing whereby visitors like yourself pitch in to add items..."
