[edit] The Military history WikiProject Newsletter: Issue XII - February 2007

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter Issue XII - February 2007
Project news The new consolidated review department—combining the existing project peer review and A-Class review with a listing of project articles undergoing various external featured content candidacies and reviews—is now operational. Two new templates have been introduced: {{Infobox Firearm Cartridge}}, a primary infobox for use with firearm cartridges and artillery shells. {{Command structure}}, an auxiliary infobox designed for use with {{Infobox Military Unit}}. An effort is being made to have task forces maintain annotated bibliographies for their topic areas; several task forces have already begun to construct them. The project reached two important milestones this month: 500 active members and 30,000 articles in the assessment system. A military version of Wikipe-tan has been created; a new userbox featuring one of the images is available for interested project members.	From the coordinators The third project coordinator elections have now concluded. Seven coordinators have been selected to serve for the next six months: Carom (talk • contribs) FayssalF (talk • contribs) Kirill Lokshin (talk • contribs) Kyriakos (talk • contribs) LordAmeth (talk • contribs) Petercorless (talk • contribs) Wandalstouring (talk • contribs) Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to all of the candidates who put themselves forward for this responsibility, and to the retiring coordinators for all of their efforts to improve the project! Kirill Lokshin, Lead Coordinator
Current proposals and discussions {{Infobox National Military}} is being developed to replace the old {{Military}} template; comments on the draft version are welcome. A proposal to introduce a category tree for military campaigns, as well as a number of associated classification guidelines, is being discussed; comments would be very appreciated.

[edit] The Novels WikiProject Newsletter: Issue X - March 2007

The Novels WikiProject Newsletter Issue X - March 2007
Project news We are on the cusp of having 9000 novel and other narrative prose articles tagged as part of the project. With this volume of articles, we need all the editorial help we can get. Now there are three Task Forces ("Short story", "Science Fiction" & "Crime") - see below Member news The project has currently 214 members, 8 joined & 1 leavers since the last newsletter at the start of February 2007 Other news The Assessment department has managed to assess (in some form) nearly all the main articles. The emphasis will now change to identifying needed article improvement, however keeping a watch on newly tagged articles with a view to properly assess those. A new Peer review department has kicked off with one of my early articles as a starting point. Please do give it a look, start reviewing and suggest other articles that you believe could benefit from another pair of eyes. The Children and Young Adult Literature portal was created by User:KGV, go take a look. Auto list news Currently stalled - if anyone has the means to help out here with re-generation of these list - please do! Current debates The End of Fair Use? is notification of a serious debate going on across WikiPedia. Another possible problem hasn't really got going as a debate but maybe should have. It highlights a need to put in content to articles that asserts "notability" and gives proper referencing to articles. Task Forces Short story task force is about short stories and short story collections. Crime task force is about Crime, Detective & Mystery novels, novellas, novelettes & short stories. Science fiction task force is about Science fiction novels, novellas, novelettes & short stories. Project volunteers Volunteers needed - if any members feel able to take on project tasks such as leading Task Forces, editing this Newsletter, monitoring and maintaining the Announcements template, heading up Outreach activity, managing Collaboration or Assessment activity or anything else you believe needs special attention, please let us know.	From the Members Welcome to the tenth issue of the Novels WikiProject's newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do. We would encourage all members to get more involved and if you are wondering what with, please ask. Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk), Initiating Editor Collaboration of the Month This months Collaboration has been selected by popular vote and it is Adam Bede. Newsletter challenge Last months A Taste for Death challenge was met by the user Barbara Osgood (talk • contribs) with a brief stub .... again this could still handle some development. The first person to start the article is mentioned in the next newsletter. This month's article is Ivan Turgenev's - On the Eve.

[edit] Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Occupation of Latvia

This arbitration case has closed and the final decision is available at the link above. The parties identified in the decision as having acted poorly in the dispute regarding Occupation of Latvia 1940-1945 are admonished to avoid such behavior in the future. That article is placed on probation, and any editor may be banned from it, or from other reasonably related pages, by an uninvolved administrator for disruptive edits, including, but not limited to, edit warring, inciviilty, and original research. The Arbitration Committee reserves the right to appoint one or more mentors at any time, and the right to review the situation in one year, if appropriate. The parties are strongly encouraged to enter into a mediation arrangement regarding any article-content issues that may still be outstanding. If the article is not substantially improved by continued editing, the Arbitration Committee may impose editing restrictions on users whose editing is counterproductive or disruptive. This notice is given by a Clerk on behalf of the Arbitration Committee. Newyorkbrad 23:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: AlexPU's block

Hi, just so you're informed, if a blocked user uses his talk page for further attacks during the block duration, it can be locked until the block expires, which is a fairly standard practice. -- Grafikm ^(AutoGRAF) 13:57, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I wasn't completely sure about the blocking policy. As for his personal attacks, I don't think he should be making them, either. Hopefully he'll learn soon. — Alex ^(T|C|E) 01:14, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Soviet invasion POVed?

Dear Grafikm, if you agree with Irpen that this article is POVed, perhaps you can explain in detail what is POVed? Irpen, unfortunatly, although arguing for months about POV in this article, still failed to present any sources or details about the POV (other than the general 'Polish propaganda' line). Since in the past you've helped us resolve such issues, perhaps you could do so here?-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  15:56, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter Issue XIII - March 2007
Project news The project's scope has been updated to include depictions of military history in cultural media. The Spanish military history task force has been created. The project now has a publication department, which will work on producing collections of military history articles for offline publication. There is now a list of military-related deletion nominations available. Two new sets of guidelines have been introduced: Guidelines for classifying military conflicts and categorizing campaigns Expanded guidelines for citation styles and requesting citations Two new templates are now available: {{Infobox National Military}}, a primary infobox for use on articles about an entire nation's military establishment. {{Service record}}, an auxiliary infobox for documenting a military unit's or ship's service history. The old requested articles page and the automation department have been discontinued.	Current proposals and discussions The new project award structure is nearing completion; a draft currently is up for comment. A proposal for replacing the project's collaboration with a contest scheme is being discussed. Sign-ups for several potential task forces are open; all interested members are encouraged to list themselves! An automated system for locating new articles is currently being tested.
