Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/March 2011 backlog reduction drive

Welcome to the Military history WikiProject's March 2011 backlog reduction drive (aka Milhist March Madness)!

About the drive
The backlog reduction drive is a one-month effort to reduce the backlog of military history articles needing attention. These articles have been flagged as needing particular types of improvement to achieve B-Class status; by reducing the backlog, the drive will simultaneously help the project achieve its 10% B-Class milestone target.

The drive starts at 00:00 UTC on March 1 and runs through 23:59 UTC on March 31.

Scoring
You will receive points for each article you improve, based on the category in which it is listed. If an article is listed in more than one category, you can submit it multiple times, once for each category of improvement you make.

Awards
As a token of our appreciation for your efforts, the coordinators will be presenting service awards and barnstars based on the number of articles you improve. The awards are cumulative; for example, earning 1000 points entitles you to one-, two-, and three-stripe service awards, plus the WikiChevrons and the Tireless Contributor Barnstar.

The coordinators will post awards to your talk page within a few days of the end of the drive. If you'd like yours earlier, please ask one of the coordinators.
