WP Volcanoes
Hello. If you haven't noticed, I've started a structural reorganization of WikiProject Volcanoes. So far, I've beutified the head page and moved a lot of the stuff to subpages of the project, so as not to bulk the main page. As an active member of the project, this is just a notice about what's going on. Comments go on the talk page. Happy holidays, Res Mar 14:08, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of 2010 New Mexico earthquake

Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns.

This article should be deleted. I don't think it passes Wikipedia Notability requirements. If every little earthquake had its own article there would be millions of them. I could see maybe an article called: "Earthquakes in New Mexico". And this one listed on that page, as well as the top earthquakes in NM history, but I can't see a separate article, it is a waste. Besides, what if there was a really big one later, this is also not a good way to name an article before 2010 has ended. You need to create quality articles, not quantity. Thank you for your time. > Best O Fortuna (talk) 04:34, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Crescent City, California Micropolitan Statistical Area
The MICROPOLITAN Statistical Area (which is the entirety of Del Norte County) is NOT the same as a Metro population. There is no such designation for Crescent City or anywhere in the region. It is misleading to list a Metro population for CC: It is incorrect. Norcalal (talk) 05:17, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2012 Contest
Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require assessment, that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.

As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.

If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from Part One of the Assessment Guide. Part Two of the Guide will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.

You can sign up on the Tag & Assess page. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Art Deco, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fox Theatre (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!
