    • Green checkmarkY TRM was to suggest these fixes on September 5, 2021. On September 6, 2021, JPxG would read his suggestions. On September 7, 2021, JPxG would fix the article. TRM would receive a ping on September 7 alerting him to this fact and thanking him for the help in copyediting. JPxG planned, on September 8, to write his next article while keeping TRM's helpful advice in mind.
