WP 1.0 bot announcement
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. &mdash; Carl (CBM · talk) 03:19, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

FYI, several maps of former countries have come up for deletion, see Files for deletion/2010 July 4 — 76.66.195.196 (talk) 03:39, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks like these are all maps that have been replaced in the articles. They've all been listed by SchuminWeb as orphaned; that does indeed appear to be the case, as far as I can see. — OwenBlacker (Talk) 12:22, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Former country articles have been selected for the Wikipedia 0.8 release
Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles were selected based on their assessed importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.

We would like to ask you to review the Former country articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (&diams;) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Sunday, November 14th.

We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of November, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!

If you have already provided feedback, we deeply appreciate it. For the Wikipedia 1.0 editorial team, SelectionBot 16:32, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Empire of Brazil
I've been re-writing Empire of Brazil for almost 2 years now. This is how the article looked before: I'd like to hear opinions, suggestions, criticism, etc. in its talk page. Thank you very much, --Lecen (talk) 18:41, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Dacia
Hi, WikiProject Dacia is looking for supporters, editors and collaborators for creating and better organizing information in articles related to Dacia and the history of Daco-Getae. If interested, PLEASE provide your support on the proposal page. I think Dacia should also be added to the list of former countries. Thanks!!--Codrinb (talk) 03:05, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
