New member
Hello everyone I am a new member! I have a lot of experience in music professionally on many subjects and I also have a lot of advice on projects as well, which leads me to the below statements.

This project is in danger and I aim to revive it! So I ask all members who are still active to comment here. The list of members is very long for a semi-active project. Yikes! --Xavier (talk) 13:55, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not actually on the list for this project, but I do contribute, and am a member of the Christian metal project. I'll go ahead and add my name to the list.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me   &#124;  See what I have done  ) 15:16, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, is it acceptable to clear away user names from the list if an editor has been inactive for years?-- 3family6 ( Talk to me   &#124;  See what I have done  ) 15:18, 5 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes it is, but let's wait about 30 days before any changes to the list are made to give members time that might still be active. I have started the full discussion here.

The project Bot
I have already removed the bot code that was archiving this page.

The current project bot seems out of date in terms of syntax. I vote for the Bot to be archived and replaced with a new one. Since I know all the necessary steps to creating one I do not mind making one. On the other hand, the need for a bot seems quite unnecessary. What are your thoughts? --Xavier (talk) 16:02, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Shortcuts updated
I have updated the shortcuts! The project is underway!--Xavier (talk) 02:14, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

Userbox revamped
I have been working on the userbox and have finally got it looking more presentable. There was a lot of improper and outdated syntax. --Xavier (talk) 17:17, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Band member timeline standards discussion at WikiProject Musicians
I wanted everyone here to know about the current discussion happening at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Musicians  that may put an end to all of the edit warring and inconsistency surround band member timelines. — DLManiac (talk) 06:52, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
