Football Manager 2013 Editor And Resource Archiver-CPY
As Sandy said, the Ima Hogg collaboration was amazing, and there were at least a dozen editors involved. When I've seen these large-scale collaborations work best, it's usually been within a defined time frame, with one person acting as sort of a project manager (in the case of Ima Hogg, that was Sandy) who coordinated the tasks, another acting as chief writer, and everyone else pitching in where they could - copyediting, research, images, MOS, analyzing and tracking the remaining deficiencies, and gently arguing with the uninformed who show up. I think this is the only possible way to get some of these larger and more controversial articles to FA status. As penance for the stream of low-level Texas history articles I keep sending through FAC, I desperately want to see Catholic Church become an FA; the talk page environment is finally mostly conducive to this, and Truthkeeper88 and I have been reading scholarly works until our eyes are crossing, but it's too big a task for the two of us alone. We could use 4-8 more editors who are willing to research and/or take our notes and turn them into prose, help determine appropriate summary style and ensure we stay away from undue weight, be vigilant about NPOV, look at images/captions, and help educate some of the regulars on the talk page on WP policies and FA standards. In general, I'd love to see an FAC regular collaboration of the quarter that focuses on the bigger articles, even if my pet projects aren't included.
