Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities/Outreach/Newsletter March 2008

The WikiProject Universities Newsletter
Issue VII (March 2008)

Consensus has finally been reached (after over 5 months) regarding our Article Guidelines. These guidelines should now pave way for future featured articles and more standardization!
Thanks to SatyrTN, his bot SatyrBot is creating a daily To do list that includes all of our articles that need cleanup, to be wikified, etc. Check out the full list there or the randomized short list.
SatyrBot will also be auto-assessing our stub articles to dwindle down the number of unassessed articles.

GreenJoe has proposed the creation of WikiProject Students' unions. Discussions have taken place on the Student Affairs Task Force talk page and the WikiProject Council proposals page.
A continued discussion regarding the optional and required fields of Infobox University is taking place on its talk page.

The current University Collaborations of the Fortnight are:
Editor Nominated Topic	Kennesaw State University
B-Class Improvement Drive	Columbia University
Start/Stub Improvement Drive	Chulalongkorn University
Every fortnight three higher education-related topics, stubs, or red linked articles are chosen for you to improve. Be bold! This COTF is organized by Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities. (Nominate future collaborations or see past collaborations.) This WP:UNI/COTF is effective: Mar 28, 2008 ~ Apr 10, 2008.
