The proposed WikiProject was not created

Description
Document the culture and heritage of Bogor, West Java, Indonesia; we will endeavor to invite the world and our local community to participate in stewarding the documentation and contribute. Pages will be published in Indonesian and English language with efforts to make translations available in Dutch, German, French, Russian, Chinese and Japanese. Alex Rollin (talk) 07:02, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Our subject matter will begin with the documentation of major historical sites, buildings, and geography and we will work closely with WikiProject Indonesia to make better connections between the city to extend into culture schools, government, and transport.

WikiProject Indonesia - A very well organized project that includes a great deal of resources. We do of course consider ourselves a sub-project of this wonderful effort.

There are a number of pages that serve as our inspiration. We're taking a focused look at heritage, but, we'll need to start with our city and move on from there.

A new group for our local community is helpful because a lot of research is required and we have plans to involve several hundred people in the project. We'll build strong ties to the WikiProject Indonesia and we'll help each other.

 * Support with the condition you look very closely at how task forces work - you are probably best advised to see how WP:MILHIST runs its task forces - I suspect a project level is aiming too high in view of the limited scope. The Indonesian project has a very mixed history over the last five years, and the dropping off of editors and the skewed or bias of where the edits and work is happening in the project might be an indication of what to expect.  Best of luck in your endeavours whatever happens  SatuSuro 00:09, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
