June 2026 GAN Backlog Drive notice
Hi there! Thanks for signing up for the June 2026 GAN backlog drive! We have noticed that you have made little to no reviews during the drive. We, the coordinators, would appreciate if you'd pick up at least one GAN to review until the end of the month! Thank you. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 12:17, 18 June 2026 (UTC)
The SPI
I will not be replying to deetailz anymore in the SPI, as I do not want the issues I raised to be derailed. Sohvyan (talk) 22:18, 19 June 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know—I agree that there's enough discussion and sufficient information there already. Apologies in advance if it takes me a while to process the SPI (as you can imagine, there's quite a bit to go through). Best, GoldRomean (talk) 22:32, 19 June 2026 (UTC)
