This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in theWP 1.0 assessment system. OnSaturday, January 23, 2010, theWP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project'ssummary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at theWP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl(CBM · talk)03:13, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by theWikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles wereselected based on their assessed importance and quality, then articleversions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of theWikiTrust algorithm.
We would like to ask you to review theDravidian civilizations articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us atWikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject'sarticles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID atWikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.
We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such asOne Laptop per Child andWikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, withyour WikiProject's feedback!

Recently, I saw the movieVanaja, which is made with a deep respect and concern for the preservation of rural culture in Andhra Pradesh. I sent mail to the director, MrRajnesh Domalpalli, and he answered very nicely. He was excited about this WikiProject. He offered to release pictures that would be of use to us, and wrote further "[WP:DRAVCIV] must be a wonderful effort. I'd be happy to help them in any way I can, and give them whatever they need." Since part of what I enjoyed about this movie was the excellent photography, I'm grateful for this offer. But since I'm not an expert, I would appreciate if some participants could look at the movie website (in particular[1],[2],[3], and[4] - or better yet, watch the movie itself, as it is even possible to obtain pictures that haven't been posted yet) and point out any pictures that would help our coverage on Dravidian civilization. From the image descriptions, I came up with the following list of articles that could be improved or created with the pictures and descriptions. Of course, you're the experts, so it's up to you to decide which of these make sense, and you probably (hopefully) will have some other ideas:

Thai Pongal is currently tagged for needing more references, and according to the rules atWikipedia:Selected anniversaries, must be omitted from the Main Page onJanuary 15, 2012, unless the issue can be addressed. There are a little over 12 days to go, so hopefully that gives editors enough to time to take care of this. Thanks!howcheng{chat}20:06, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi everyone. March is Women's History Month and I'm hoping a few folks here at WP:Dravidian civilization will have interest in putting on events (on and off wiki) related to women's roles in within Dravidian society. We've created an event page on English Wikipedia (please translate!) and I hope you'll find the inspiration to participate. These events can take place off wiki, like edit-a-thons, or on wiki, such as themes and translations. Please visit the page here:WikiWomen's History Month. Thanks for your consideration and I look forward to seeing events take place!SarahStierch (talk)19:10, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Pleasereview the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on mytalk page. Thank you for your time!(Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.)Harej (talk)22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is thatWikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested,check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page toWikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.
Portals are being redesigned.
The new design features are being applied to existing portals.
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template{{Transclude lead excerpt}}.
The discussion about this can be foundhere.
Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project membershere, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.
On April 8th, 2018, anRfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.
Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.
So far, 84 editors have joined.
If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see thenewsletter archive.
If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on theWikiProject's talk page.
Thank you. —The Transhumanist 07:35, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of theWP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting theweb tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.
We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions atthis Google form where you can leave your response.Walkerma (talk)04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
