[edit] Wikipedia Anti-war project, push to get a featured article b4 Xmass
February 15, 2003 anti-war protest, an article which is part of the WikiProject Anti-war of which you are listed as a member, has been recently rated A-class by the Version 1.0 Editorial team (see here) This means that it is considered to be of good quality. The Anti-war project has yet to achieve a featured article but with a little pushing I feel we could get this article up to FA standards. To this end I have put the article up for peer review, if you could help make this a brilliant article that would be much appreciated. Please give your comments at Wikipedia:Peer review/February 15, 2003 anti-war protest or on the article's talk page. Fingers crossed for a FA before Xmass.--JK the unwise 13:05, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Philosophy Edit
I like your addition: "Early Greek philosophers frequently concentrated their efforts on finding the one unifying thing that everything reduces down to.", but is there a way to write this more concisely and without using the word "thing" -- I know it's hard to define, but using "everything", "anything", and other forms of "thing" is not perfectly professional, and we're going for feature status. :) But I do like the addition, as it makes the paragraph flow better. --Michael (talk) 21:45, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Thought about using 'arche' but I am not so sure that would be any more clear. --Valve 21:48, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Given the material and largely atomistic (eg. Democritus, Leucippus) inclinations of the early Greek Ionian Philosophers, the term 'thing' works insofar as it refers to a 'material object'. --Valve 21:57, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Wikiproject anti-war, Article improvement drive
February 15, 2003 anti-war protest an article from the WikiProject Anti-war, which you are listed as a member of, has been nominated for the Article Improvement Drive (by me 
).
It is an article about a day of much importance both to the history of the anti-war movement and to general discussion of the Iraq war. With a little work from experienced editors it could gain FA status. If you would like to see it improved please vote for it at Make "February 15, 2003 anti-war protest" the subject of an Article Improvement Drive--JK the unwise 13:21, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
