[edit] Effort of the Month

Constitution of Estonia - the Constitution of Estonia has 168 articles. I have started it, but I need some help. It's a massive undertaking. To help me, use this source. Thanks! Srose (talk) 14:30, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

It's DONE!!! Thank you to everyone who helped out. :) If anyone else has an article that they need help on, please feel free to post it here. Srose (talk) 13:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

For the month of October, we will be working on the main article for our project: Estonia, of course! It's my hope, and the hope of several others, that the article on Estonia will one day be a Featured Article. To find out about suggestions, please visit WP:FA, specifically the section titled, "What is a Featured Article?", as it contains guidelines. Take a look at other Featured Articles. Maybe (and quite probably) we'll only reach GA status within a month, but FA status isn't out of reach by a long shot. Srose (talk) 16:52, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

• Anyone who can get their hands on the 9 October issue of Time Magazine should: it contains a multiple-page analysis of the Estonian economy. Srose (talk) 16:52, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
