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.

Request for information on WP1.0 web tool
Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Dutch municipalities → WP:WikiProject Netherlands/Taskforce Municipalities – I suggest that this inactive subproject of WikiProject Netherlands be moved underneath WPNetherlands as a task force. This project already uses the WPNetherlands project banner, it doesn't need to sit as a separate project. -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 11:50, 25 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. &#8212;CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 14:00, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * NOTE this would be similar to how inactive TV show projects frequently get merged into WPTelevision as taskforces -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 11:53, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support. We have far too many moribund micro-topical wikiprojects and need to merge more of them as taskforce/workgroup pages into broader projects that are more active.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  09:48, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Relister's note: According to WikiProject Council/Guide/Task forces, ample time is to be given for participants in a less-active group to object. Since such a conversion would be largely irreversible due to the bureaucracy involved, I'm willing to give this one more time for discussion. &#8212;CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 13:36, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: According to above guide it should be moved to a format of Wikipedia:WikiProject Parent/name task force, which is consistent with task force nomenclature of all other task forces. So I suggest it be moved to WikiProject Netherlands/Dutch municipalities task force instead. &#8212;CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 07:37, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
 * That is acceptable to me, I am the nominator -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 10:53, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Support. Per SMcCandlish. --Wolbo (talk) 13:58, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

Conversion cleanup post-merger
Thanks IP64 for the nomination and 511KeV for the closure. I would like anyone watching this page to know that I hope to be doing all the post-merger cleanup work as required within today. When I'm done, I'll post an update here. If I miss something that I should've done but forgot, please feel free to ping me in this section. Thanks! &#8212;CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 14:24, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Completed post-merger cleanup. &#8212;CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 10:37, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
