WP:GOCE Requests edit

Thank you for submitting requests for copy editing to the Guild of Copy Editors. I have removed two of your requests, because we have a limit of two simultaneous requests per editor. Once your first two requests are completed, you are welcome to submit two more. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:15, 17 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Rocky edit

Hello:

The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Rocky has been completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Before you submit this for review for GA status there are sections and specific statements that are not cited These will need to be checked and citations added to the article. Also, it is generally unnecessary for there to be citations in the article's lede unless a statement might be controversial or contentious. All the information in the lede needs to be included and cited in the main body of the article. This also needs to be done so the two citations in the lede can be removed.

Regards,

@Magical Blas: I've now had time to run the Wikipedia tool Earwig's Copyvio Detector. https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&oldid=1029991124&action=compare&url=https%3A%2F%2Finterpretersacademy.com%2Fdlgfau%2Frocky-oscar-wins

You'll see when you check the link that large sections of the article are copied from one source. These need to be rewritten before you submit it for revieew..

The reason for your request ("This is a Good Article, but it needs to be referenced, updated and corrected") is beyond the scope of a copyedit. You should bring up your concerns on the article's talk page or open a GAR. All the best, Miniapolis 22:50, 2 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
