Hi Members, You rarely hear from me on this list, but... I was the Chief Copy Editor for Nupedia. Since part of validation process is copy editing, and I have seen few comments on this subject, I added my first thoughts on this subject to Mediawiki's page on article validation...please see the Copy Edit section (6.6) of the Article Validation page at: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Article_validation#Copyediting I think this is important, because I see copy editing as different from other types of article validation. I would appreciate feedback, either to this list or to the article validation page. Thank you, As Ever, Ruth Ifcher
