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) 03:21, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Milhist outreach at Wikimania 2010
This year's Wikimania takes place in Gdansk, Poland, over the weekend of 9-11 July (details). Would you be interested in attending and helping prepare a Milhist presentation, explaining how our project works for the benefit of other editors from other wikis? It is also a great opportunity to meet up with other Wikipedians and Milhisters, and explore the city itself a little. This will be of particular interest to Milhist members living within easy travelling distance of Poland, though it is bound to attract interest from others living further away. This is at early discussion stages at the moment but we only need five or six people to make it happen!

If you might be able to help, or attend, please sign up HERE.

Thanks,  Roger Davies  talk 09:17, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Reichskommissariat
I've got involved at Talk:Reichskommissariat over a suitable translation of "Reichskommissariat". Another editor proposes "Realm's Commissionerate" and, for several reasons, I disagree. Knowledgeable input would be highly desirable. Folks at 137 (talk) 09:26, 29 March 2010 (UTC)


 * As there's been little or no interest in this argument, I'm inclined to back off and let the other editor get away with "Realm's Commissionerate of Ukraine". Life's not long enough.... Wearily, Folks at 137 (talk) 08:03, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
