Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/October 2015 backlog reduction drive

The Military history WikiProject's October-November 2015 backlog reduction drive has now concluded.

About the drive
The backlog reduction drive is a six-week effort to reduce the backlog of military history articles needing attention and military history articles with incomplete B-Class checklists. 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 15% B-Class milestone target. The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 15 October and runs through 23:59 UTC on 30 November.

A brief explanation of the B-Class criteria is available here, and more detailed information on meeting the criteria is available in this FAQ.

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. You will receive points for each category so long as it is assessed as meeting the B-class criteria for that category following your improvements. As such, once you have improved an article, it should be listed at WP:MHA for independent assessment. Please do not self assess articles you have improved (although it is acceptable to remove a photo request tag from the talk page once you have met the request).

To qualify for the points detailed above for the first four categories, you must have contributed to the article content within the scoring period. Points are also offered for articles that are removed from the fifth category by assessment action only (i.e. you complete an incomplete B class checklist) and the sixth category if you assess an article listed at WP:MHA or in the unassessed category (if an article meets both of these criteria, you may list it twice). In this regard, 5 points are offered per article you assess against the B-class criteria during the drive.

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 will not be cumulative, rather each participant will qualify for a single award based on the total number of points you accumulate.

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.

How to participate
To take part in the drive, please [ add your name] to the list of participants; the exact syntax will be displayed when you edit the section.

Then, in alphabetical order, please [ create a new worklist section for yourself]; as before, the exact syntax will be displayed when you edit the page.

Now you can begin working on articles in the categories listed above. For each article: If you fix an article that's listed in multiple categories, please list it separately under each applicable category.
 * 1) Fix the listed problem by editing the article or update the assessment checklist in the WPMILHIST tag on the article's talk page;
 * 2) If you have improved the content of the article, request assessment at WP:MHA once you have completed your improvements (not required for minor technical fixes such as adding a photograph - in this regard, just remove the photo request from the talkpage yourself); and
 * 3) List the article under the appropriate category in your worklist section.
