A hillbilly girl correcting grammar?—now this puzzles me. Rintrah 14:43, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Oh, and by the way, I checked your "User contributions" and noticed you mostly participated in copyediting. There is a band of editors dedicated to this task called the League of Copyeditors; you are welcome to enlist. Rintrah 14:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank you Rintrah
Thank you for your welcome - and your advice and tips. It is all greatly appreciated, while I learn how I can best help out the Wikipedia project. I may join in the copyediting project, but for now am just trying to get some experience using the system.
And - I was born a hillbilly and remain a hillbilly from West Virginia, US, but at this point I am an overeducated professor (of geography) hillbilly. Go figure.

:You're welcome. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask.
:I do wonder, if hillbillies can become overeducated professors, can bogans too? The world is full of possibilities. Rintrah 15:20, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello
I have seen you editing Mansehra District, have you ever been to Mansehra, Batagram and around? Anyway very impressive. Take care. Haider 22:18, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
: Highly appreciated for checking grammer and spellings mistakes etc. Haider 22:32, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
:Haider -
:Thanks! No, I have not been there - but would love to go, and hope to one day. (Because of that, I hope you can help me catch any mistakes made from ignorance in my editing.) I'm a geography professor in the US, and love to learn about interesting places all over the world. Hillbillygirl 11:38, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Help with [[Shahbag]]
The article is inching towards an FA status and is being reviewed for a second time by peers. But, it still needs much copyedit (especially with citation template and dating web citations). A wholesomely coherent style of English and a completely cohesive flow of the article is mightily required at this point. I have also tagged the article for sopyedit, and have posted a request with Wikipedia:WikiProject League of Copyeditors. Please, help. Aditya Kabir 16:12, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Aditya Kabir - I'm on it, but a bit slow - things are busy right now. Hillbillygirl 13:24, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Shahbag is an FAC now. Care to take a look? Cheers. Aditya Kabir 15:29, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
[[Ananthabhadram]] needs copy edit
Please, could you take a look at the article Ananthabhadram? It needs quite some copy editing job. In case you are interested, do not begin before 10 June. I am making some improvements to the article. I hope to get the article to a GA status and eventually to an FA status. Aditya Kabir 08:25, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Gone to review
I have put myself for an editor review at Wikipedia:Editor review/Aditya Kabir. Check. Aditya Kabir 05:08, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

|Greetings from the League of Copyeditors. Your name is listed on our members page, but we are unsure how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the League's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the League, please follow the instructions at the members page to add your name to the active members list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarise yourself with the new requests system, which has replaced the old /proofreading subpage. As the old system is now deprecated, the main efforts of the League should be to clear the substantial backlog which still exists there. |

Wikipedia Education Program Fall 2012
Hi, Hillbillygirl!
I saw on your userpage that you're a professor at a midwestern university, and I thought you might be interested in participating in the Wikipedia Education Program for the coming term. If you're still teaching a class and would like your students to edit Wikipedia as an assignment, please email me at jmathewson@wikimedia.org to talk more about the program! Thanks!
