Equestrian statue of Ferdinand Foch, London
Well, there's a stub. I hope it bears some resemblance to what you wanted/had in mind! I am rubbish with metadata, so that may need a good scrub. And I can't get the height to behave in the infobox. Or sort out Ref. 4. But it's a start that others can build on. Best regards. KJP1 (talk) 13:50, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Fantastic work! I especially like the detail about the French-style landscaping. Would any of the other grade I- and grade II*-listed sculptures interest you? Ham II (talk) 14:17, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, I rather liked that. One can always rely on Pevsner for a good quote. I'm particularly fond of his dig at Eric Bedford's St James Park bridge - "quite handsome, and good to look out from"! I'll certainly take a look at the others, but am rather in to AfC just at present. Best regards. KJP1 (talk) 14:22, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
 * What a gorgeous project, and project page, that is. Beautifully designed. And that Karl Marx's grave doesn't have an article is very tempting indeed! KJP1 (talk) 14:37, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Too tempting! KJP1 (talk) 13:21, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your work on these articles. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:01, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
 * My pleasure. I think there might actually be an FA in the Marx grave - there's a mass of material. One for the to-do list. KJP1 (talk) 19:07, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Good job we got that done in time. Journalists would have had to look elsewhere for the filling for their centenary reports! KJP1 (talk) 12:37, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

Precious three years!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

WikiProject X Newsletter • Issue 13
Newsletter • December 2018

This month: A general update.

The current status of the project is as follows:
 * Progress of the project has been generally delayed since September due to development issues (more bitrot than expected, some of the code just being genuinely confusing, etc) and personal injury (I suffered a concussion in October and was out of commission for almost two months as a result).
 * I currently expect to be putting out a proper call for CollaborationKit pilots in January/February, with estimated deployment in February/March if things don't go horribly wrong (they will, though, don't worry). As a part of that, I will properly update the page and send out announcement and reach out to all projects already signed up as pilots for WikiProject X in general, at which point those (still) interested can volunteer specifically to test the CollaborationKit extension.
 * WikiProject X/Pilots was originally created for the first WikiProject X prototype, and given this is where the project has since gone, it's only logical to continue to use it. While I haven't yet updated the page to properly reflect this:
 * If you want to add your project to this page now, feel free. Just bear in mind that more information what to actually expect will be added later/included in the announcement, because by then I will have a much better idea myself.
 * Until then, you can find me in my corner working on making the CollaborationKit code do what we want and not just what we told it, per the workboard.

Until next time,

Statue of John Betjeman
Morning Ham, hope you are well. Am thinking of doing the above, being a great admirer of the station, and more widely of JB's work to rehabilitate Victorian architecture. Now, as to title: I'm not aware of another statue, here or abroad. Thus, the first and simplest? Thoughts appreciated and Happy Christmas. KJP1 (talk) 07:00, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Statue of John Betjeman;
 * Statue of John Betjeman, St Pancras Station;
 * Statue of John Betjeman, London.


 * Betjeman's statue (I also don't know of any others than the one in St Pancras) is definitely a worthy subject for an article. I think the first and simplest title is best. Thanks for taking this on, and hope you've had a happy Christmas too! Ham II (talk) 08:51, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * And now done. Hope you like it. KJP1 (talk) 13:11, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
