Hi. I guess this is just the beginning, right ? Aren't we supposed to clean up our whole corpus ? JeromeDelacroix

We are, and I think we'll get there. More people are signing up now, I'm happy to say, and as we expand the set of Checklisted Articles, I think it's going to become increasingly clear how useful this whole effort is--so I think people will jump in. We might not be able to do most of the work in the space of a few days, the way we did with The Big Speedydelete, but we'll eventually get there. It's OK if it's not instant. --Larry Sanger 15:46, 17 March 2007 (CDT)

I'll get to work on my articles this evening.

Sorry ya'll, I haven't had much time this past week to work on the articles I was going to clean up, but tonight I should be able to.

Cheers to you all!

What about the new articles that are being made in the sections that are finished?

So after a section of articles gets "cleaned-up," what is the system for monitoring the new articles that get made and making sure they have big clean up tags as well? -Tom Kelly (Talk) 12:15, 22 April 2007 (CDT)

There is no such system, but it shouldn't be hard for someone to make a script or a database search that will find article pages with >n characters and no {{checklist on the talk page. The hope is that someone will run that script on a regular basis and post the results. --Larry Sanger 12:57, 22 April 2007 (CDT)
