Revival Process
I have submitted Revival Process for a peer review. I'm rather new to this. 1989 expulsion of Turks from Bulgaria is a shorter article that I intend to expand later that is a child of the Revival Process article with a summary-style reference. I think I should request review here so that the quality of the articles will go up. I do not intend to submit these for GA(N) anytime soon. Pietrus1 (talk) 02:56, 19 February 2026 (UTC)

Subject has died, and editing on the article has slowed down. A lot of the messiness of the article has been fixed, but a copy-edit would still be beneficial. Especially if this were to ever go for GAN. Harizotoh9 (talk) 01:47, 20 February 2026 (UTC)

Another old FA that I cleaned up recently. Would like a copyedit to be safe. Thank you. LittleJerry (talk) 20:40, 20 February 2026 (UTC)
USS Iowa turret explosion
2009 FA that has been neglected and forgotten about, and may run for TFA on the next anniversary of the event or on the 40th anniversary of the event. Given the article's immense age, a copy-edit focusing on formatting and grammar would be beneficial. Harizotoh9 (talk) 05:58, 21 February 2026 (UTC)

The article has gone through substantial improvements ever since I've requested a peer review, despite that I still notice that there's some subtle flaws in the writing that make it not concise enough to be nominated at GAN. Therefore, I would like to have a copyedit and hear other concerns. Thanks in advance. GumballNine1Nine (talk) 19:38, 25 February 2026 (UTC)
1923 season 2
I would like to take this to FAC. While the P-R has not received as many responses as I hoped, I would like to push this nomination through soon. Content additions feel largely complete to me, so bar some minor cleanup, this is my last stop before taking it there. Thank you, TheDoctorWho (talk) 07:35, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

Elliot Rodger
The article failed GAN after a lengthy two month that required a whole rewrite of the article. After all of the rewrites, the user who reviewed it then said that the article had "insurmountable issue[s] when it comes to neutrality and following WP:SS". The user stated it "would benefit from having much of the details of Rodger's upbringing placed into summary style. As it stands, the article delves too deeply into Rodger's details written in his manifesto" and "a vast proportion of the article is essentially Elliot Rodger's point of view, as written by him in his so-called "manifesto", with innumerable sources describing it, quoting from it, and analyzing it. Normally, this would trigger neutrality issues, as there is very little presented here to counter Rodger's dramaturgical pathos. As these passages have been reported on by RS's, a modicum of their inclusion ought to be permitted. That modicum could be attained if those mentions were efficiently summarized instead of described in great detail. By describing Elliot's POV in great detail with very little opposition described, the article appears to tilt in his favor (unintentionally)". I would like to renominate the article in the future but this editor stated the article doesn't meet WP:SS and WP:N. I would like if it followed that way.

- I don't think that the major issues with your article are going to be helped by a copy edit. I have read through much of the article and made several changes, but found what is there generally well expressed. To edit out the wealth of detail that it suffers from would take more than a usual copy editing, which should focus on spelling, diction, phrasing, coherence, and removing obvious redundancies. It would not be easy to summarize the various fits of jealousy and thrown soft drinks, without feeling that something critical is being taken out. Dhtwiki (talk) 06:09, 8 March 2026 (UTC)

I would like to prepare the article for GAN. Thank you for your work! Sricsi (talk) 16:41, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
Doing... I will inspect and prepare the article. Robloxguest3 (talk)
16:46, 12 March 2026 (UTC)- I think it is ready. I would heavily recommend double checking just in case, but I don't see anything glaring. No promises. Robloxguest3 (talk)
16:49, 12 March 2026 (UTC) There are a few weasel words, which I marked. However I don't have a lot time, perhaps get another user to finish? Robloxguest3 (talk)

Needs copyediting, has some messy grammar and quotations. Thanks! Robloxguest3 (talk)

The Kid Laroi
Highly visible BLP that has some issues with tone, organization, and generally odd prose. I did some small copy edits, but it would benefit from a more thorough review. Wracking talk! 04:48, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Suzette Quintanilla
Found some comments outside of Wikipedia concerning overly detailed information and could use a good dose of copy-editing. I did the expansion so I could be blinded and could use a second-eye to trim any and all unnecessary information as well as making sure the article remains neutral.

Large parts of the article appear to have been written from a fan's perspective. It could do with having any superlatives removed and grammar being improved. I will put it forward as a GAN once I have dealt with one sourcing issue and once it has been copy edited. TarnishedPathtalk 08:37, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- Ps, it's a relatively short article. TarnishedPathtalk 08:27, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

Back from an archived FAC. Looking for a copy edit of the rest of the article so it can be resubmitted eventually. Thanks in advance! RedShellMomentum 00:36, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

1986 Intercontinental Cup
This a GAN that I've been working on since a while. However something doesn't click to me and I don't know what it is. It's either the prose or the sources. Any feedback would be appreciated. Crispybeatle (talk) 23:43, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
