Illinois Digital Newspaper Collections
Hi. I've moved the list of newspapers you added to the Illinois Newspaper Project article to the talk page for the time being. I guess it would make a good list article but that should probably only be done after a few of the newspapers have had their own articles created. I've seen you've started some on AFC so hopefully that shouldn't be too long! Let me know if you need any help with this at all also! You do need a new username, however - this one is associated with the Illinois Digital Newspaper Collection (who I guess you work for?) and as such is in violation of our username policy. Once you've that set up give me a shout!  Nik the  stunned  09:00, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
