WikiProject Stargate

 * First round: Contacted April 08, 2006. 8 articles suggested so far.
 * Second round: Contacted June 29, 2006, received request of clarification. 13 articles suggested.

As with Star Trek, a common criticism of our pages is that they start from a fictional rather than nonfictional point of view; however most agree that this is ridiculous considering the subject matter is inherently fictional. Nevertheless, an effort has been made to look at articles from a nonfictional perspective.

This list is made up of our most crucial articles, and our very best articles. Our project has hundreds more articles of varying quality and importance. Only the best are listed here.

WikiProject Star Trek

 * First round: Contacted October 4th 2005. Recontacted October 27th, 3 suggested so far. A common criticism is that these pages are more like fan sites or even "fancruft" than encyclopedic articles, but some are well-written and referenced. We will have to make that call at time of publication.

 * Greetings from the WikiProject Opera. I've been trying to get in contact via User:Shanel. We have some concerns about the bot-driven assessments of Biography/Musicians Project (the latter is a popular music project) and we'd prefer to be dealing with the team direct, however we are a small, highly specialized project and need your advice.
