[edit] New articles
[edit] Project
- Slavishly following the latest Wikipedia fad, User:Matt Crypto created a Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Cryptography, one potential "start page" for cryptography on the Wikipedia, somewhat similar in style to the Wikipedia Main Page. Amongst other things, the page includes a crypto featured article, a "Did you know" section and a some news items in cryptography.
- On Talk:Steganography, there is a long-standing challenge to see if anyone can discover an easter egg hidden in an image on Wikipedia. This month, Tim Chambers provided a hint: "It's in Ppeak-s.jpg. That was a few years ago, and I've forgotten exactly how I did it. But I know it was some package I found via Google. I did not encrypt the message. Discovery of the package (and the hidden message) is left as an exercise for the reader. <>< tbc 05:48, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)"

This month, three users have added themselves to the Cryptography WikiProject list:

- User:ArnoldReinhold — not so new, of course ;-)
- User:Vesta (Levi), who notes that he is "CS also, computer security-related, can also make images and diagrams."
