I added the counterpart, so we now have:

Editing

FYI, Andrew Merriam Apm is a Portland based person who has joined the project. Initially he'll be helping me edit the articles. So I just wanted to give you a heads up so you're not surprised. Ray

Hola, (thanks for the intro Ray) you've probably noticed my edits to your pages. I'm still getting the hang of the site and fine-tuning my own vision of how the content should look aesthetically. I'll try and explain any major edits so we can all be on the same page with where the article/site is going. Hopefully, in the near future we'll have a more concrete idea of how a page should generally look to make everyone's work easier. With that said I don't want to be stepping on your toes and please feel free to edit my edits!Andrew Merriam

Batch 4

Thanks for consolidating those names into a more manageable chunk, but I think you missed some of them? Ray

super, thx for keeping us organized! Ray

Recent Batch

I think you do some really good, consistent work and appreciate how reliable you are. Going forward I would like to encourage you to keep a few things in mind:

1. Please do not copy articles verbatim from the source used. Re-wording, or re-structuring the flow to focus in on the parts most important to the ICANN community really helps distinguish us from our sources.

2. Try to keep links consistent. Link all ICANN related acronyms and link them throughout the entire article.

3. Take a moment to re-read the articles you've written. Again, you generally do a top-notch job but sometimes I feel like you may just not notice very simple grammar and formatting mistakes that a re-reading would help eliminate.

If there are any of these articles that you remember were copied verbatim from the source I'd love for you to take the time and try to work on putting the material into your own words. Thanks so much. We appreciate your help, and your great work and dedication mean we'll keep looking to work with you and improve the results. Be well, Andrew

New Example Section

In the community portal you will a section labeled "great people articles"; I've compiled an example of a great person article from each one of our writers, including you. Take a minute to reflect on why I chose this as your top work, the edits that have been made to it since you completed it; and please take a look at the other writers' articles, it may inspire you and help you make formatting and content decisions in the future. I certainly felt that I learned more just meticulously going through the articles. Again, thanks for all the good work- and keep us updated on your move to possible full-time employment. Be well, Andrew
