[edit] Natural Wonders of Chad

This is a talk page? It says "Wikipedia talk:" but it sure doesn't look like a talk page... Anyway, I'm checking Wikipedia's coverage of Natural Wonders of the World and Chad is missing five articles:

Keep in mind that they may already exist under different names. If not, put them on your "to do" list. Happy editing! —Keenan Pepper 21:37, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maps

I just started a stub for Ade, Chad, a city which is frequently in the news about the Sudan conflict. It is a short stub and could use some expert expansion - population, a map showing where it is (I can help make the map if someone can show me where this town is).

I found what I needed on the Falling Rain Global Gazetteer and also created a locator template that can be used to make maps for other cities if they need them. Rmhermen 20:38, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aozou, Chad

Is this a city? It is on the CIA Factbook-derived map (Image:Cd-map small.png) and at Falling Rain Gazetteer (but with a strange entry for population) but is not on the List of cities in Chad. Rmhermen 16:04, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Absolutely yes. The city is small, but has played an enormous importance in modern Chadian history, as a war has been fought for its control and three bloody battles have been fought there. At the moment Aozou is only a redirect to Aozou strip, but the town exists and is capital of the subprefecture of Aozou, in the Tibesti Department.--Aldux 17:24, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Project directory

Hello. The WikiProject Council has recently updated the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory. This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you. B2T2 14:59, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Project banner

I changed the phrasing of the project banner, and added the flag to it, hoping to make it a bit more eye-catching. I hope no one minds. If they do, please feel free to change it back. Badbilltucker 16:27, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
