Note: I seriously messed up my archives in the past, so there are two editions of my talk page in one. Please do not edit my archives.

Prussia project
Thank you for the invitation. I am currently too busy to do any useful project space work, and I am less interested in Prussian history than in Catholic Germany, so I won't "join", but will be happy to assist with individual articles if I find the time. (I fondly remember translating a couple of articles to fill out all red links when Sanssouci was at WP:FAC in 2006; getting it back to FA status might be a good task for the future). I have put the project page on my watchlist and will notice if something is happening. Good luck with the project! —Kusma (t·c) 11:50, 16 November 2019 (UTC)

Prussia project
Thanks for the invitation. I have a bit of time to help. I see that you are coordinating. Do you have any small tasks you'd like to suggest for me?

(For what it's worth, I wrote a PhD dissertation having to do with the 19th-century history of Berlin and spent time in the Prussian archives in Potsdam. That, though, was more than 20 years ago. I continue to write and edit in English on historical topics outside of Wikipedia, and I maintain my knowledge of German through daily use of the language.)

I apologize for the 2 week hiadis, I was visiting germany and my conputer was broken during transportation. You can help translate prussia related articles from german, what i suggest is that you do it move fast and break things during translating and other non-german speakng comrades in WP:PRUSSIA can fix wikilinks and poor grammar. You can also help find sources for the niche topics in prussian history becuase of your previous experience in studying those bismarkian era sources. Good luck!

Thoughts on Prussia
Would you mind taking a look at my comments on the Talk page for Prussia? "Prussia" is a problematic concept, and I don't think that it can accurately be represented as a single "state", as I explain in my comments. I think the article titled "Prussia" should be an index article pointing to the different entities that have carried the name of "Prussia". The most important of these historically was the Kingdom of Prussia. If the project is to have an article aiming for featured article status, I think that should be Kingdom of Prussia, which was a clearly defined and historically crucial state. The reason for the wide recognition of the name "Prussia" is the historical prominence of that kingdom. I think that the conceptual ambiguity of the term "Prussia" leaves our article with that title open to criticism that would preclude it from being a feature article. Even if it is reorganized I suggest, it will at best be an ancillary article and probably not deserving of feature status. By contrast, the article "Kingdom of Prussia" would be a good candidate for that status with some improvement. Marco polo (talk) 22:51, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
