[edit] Banner

Please hold of using a banner until we can get the Germanybanner to include a munich parameter. Agathoclea 07:52, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] stubs up for deletion

This is notification that most of the stubs listed on the project page are up for deletion at WP:SFD. Please join in the discussion. Thank you. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 15:35, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gallery

  1. Why do we really need a restriction like "...that have GNU Free Documentation License" - why are pic limited to a specific license? I think there is no need for that. Scriberius 14:42, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  2. Why do we need a gallery? We have http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Munich with a good categorisation and quite a lot of media files. -- Scriberius 14:42, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

This is to help collecting photo resources. Eventually, I think it should go over there. Kingjeff 18:12, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template merge?

As all the articles that belong to WikiProject Munich also belong to WikiProject Germany, I suggest to merge the templates so every talk page only needs to have one. This would not need to affect the operations of this project at all, only the talk page banner. I have just created a Mainz task force for the Germany project and have created a system of importance and quality categories for it that parallels that of the Germany project. For Mainz, it works simply by setting Mainz=yes and MainzImp=something in the {{WikiProject Germany}} template. You can see at Talk:Willigis or Talk:Georg Forster what the result looks like. If you are interested, I can add such a switch for Munich (say, Munich=yes and MunichImp=something) and provide a link to this project, just like it works for the New York City Subway project within the Trains project (see Talk:New York City Subway for an example of their templates). I think merging the templates could lead to closer cooperation between the Germany and Munich projects and less work for everyone. Kusma (討論) 20:07, 23 November 2006 (UTC)


I like the the main WikiProject Munich banner as is. Can we do this with the stub templates? Kingjeff 20:19, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't quite understand what you mean. A switch of type Munich=yes in the Germany stub templates and a corresponding category would essentially be the same as a Munich stub subtype, and would probably be opposed and not maintained by the stub sorters. However, Category:Stub-class Munich articles gives you essentially the same info. In the future, I hope the toolserver will work again, and then it will become easy to see the intersection of categories again (like to see what is in Category:Munich stubs and Category:Germany structure stubs at the same time) and so the information corresponding to a potentially "too small" stub type will be readily accessible. However, the toolserver people have been promising that the toolswerver will be back soon for a couple of months now :-/ Happy editing, Kusma (討論) 20:46, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
I have merged the templates. Hope it all works, it not, please complain :-) Two examples are at Talk:Grünwalder Stadion and Talk:Munich. It should fit with the existing categories without any change, just using the Munich=yes and MunichImp=Top switches of the Germany project template. Kusma (討論) 22:41, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Or, to be more exact, I have provided WP Munich functionality in the WP Germany template so it is no longer strictly necessary to have two templates. Another advantage of having one template only is that you won't have to adapt improvements from the Germany template, but they'll work for you automagically. Kusma (討論) 22:43, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lets get the ball rolling in here

Here are some things you can work on. You can pick some articles to do from

  1. Stub-class Munich articles,
  2. Start-class Munich articles or
  3. the translation request page.

A lot of these pages don't have a lot in them and need a start.

If anyone knows any users in Wikipedia who might be interested in this project, you can send them a {{WP Munich Invitation}}. 22:03, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, it looks like a couple people have been able to help in translating a couple articles. Thanks to Boson for doing a real translation. He brought Dachau from a stub into a credible article. Maybe someone can check it out for grammer etc. Anyone willing to help out translating can go here. If you know anyone can help translate, plese put this {{WP Munich Invitation}} on there page Kingjeff 00:06, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Shortcut

WP:MUC now redirects to the project page. Kusma (討論) 16:10, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry about the log

The 7 December changes here were caused by an edit to the project template that I didn't notice. It should be fixed now, and the bot should add the articles to the list again during its next run. Kusma (討論) 15:06, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
