classification
Just a heads up: I converted the classification at Dravidian languages to a cladogram, but it had gotten messed up and I may have introduced new errors when I corrected the old ones. If anyone here knows the source used for that section, it might be worth double checking. Unless there's a new consensus in the lit? The classification should at least be more legible now. kwami (talk) 09:06, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * You removed a source (Encyclopædia Britannica) when you converted it into a cladogram. If you haven't already added it back, you can find it in the diff. Thanks for your work.--Joshua Issac (talk) 15:42, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Bharia
Not sure how active this project is...

Ethnologue lists "Bharia" as unclassified Dravidian. It's currently the language with the largest number of speakers (per E16) which we do not have an article on, or at least have merged into another language. But I'm having a hard time confirming it actually exists, rather than just being a name in the census data that Eth. picked up on and listed as unclassified because they had no source for classification. The Bharia are a "semi-Dravidian" tribe who were reported to speak Hindi, but that's as much as I can tell. They are also supposed to be northern Dravidian, so if that's real (rather than, say, northern Gondi) that would be potentially important for Dravidian as a whole. Anyone know? (They're not mentioned in Krishnamurti.) — kwami (talk) 04:03, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject X is live!


Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.
