Project revamp
Hey there, I have reworked this project page, and plan on getting some serious work done on Kevin Smith - our flagship article. Anyone looking to help, feel free to join the project on the main page, thanks Skeletor2112 (talk) 10:31, 14 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Looking at all of the Smith-related articles, it actually may be better to change the name of this project to WikiProject Kevin Smith - as there are a lot of things that aren't actually part of the VA universe, or are not produced under VA Productions. Any thoughts? Skeletor2112 (talk) 12:52, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Are we inactive? We need to get this up and going again. --JpGrB 20:14, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Doing some cleanup work
I'm currently working on Jay and Silent Bob. It's been on the cleanup list since July of 2006. In any case, it has a new opening section, and I have an outline on the talk page. Any re-reads would be helpful, as well as, any critique. Thanks meatclerk (talk) 06:16, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
 * If there's anything I can help with, just let me know. --JpGrB 06:39, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

View Askew Productions reformatting.
I personally think we should reformat this article to more closely resemble an article such as Apatow Productions. As of now, this just seems like a collection of info. I've proposed this at that talk page too, and if there are no objections, I'll start with 24 hours. --HELLØ   ŦHERE 02:53, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I've reworked it, hope no one minds. --HELLØ    ŦHERE 20:29, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Askew statistics
I noticed we don't have a table in the statistics section. Does anyone have any experience with or know how to create bots? Maybe we should have an article quality log, kind of like The Simpson WikiProject's, so we can know how all the project's related articles are coming along and which ones need work (most of ours do, actually).

Redesigning the Project Page
I've been working on a new project page in my sandbox here. The Seinfeld and Simpsons WikiProject formats were the two biggest influences on the page. If everyone likes it, I'll make the changes permanent. If you have any suggestions, let me know. WikiGuy86 (talk) 22:13, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks good to me. Nice job.  --TreyGeek (talk) 00:39, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, since there's been no complaints, I'm officially changing the project page. WikiGuy86 (talk) 06:51, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Banky Edwards
Banky Edwards is up for deletion. I've added links to sources on the AfD, if anyone can clean-up the article and add sourcing it may help. -- Banj e b oi   21:18, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Holden McNeil
I recreated a entry for Holden McNeil, who I think definitely deserves one, but I am requesting some help from y'all in expanding it. Thanks. jer the linear (talk) 02:05, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Buddy Christ Imagery - What are the copyrights, if any, on "Buddy Christ"?
I'm curious as to the copyright restictions on "Buddy Christ" as imagery? For instance, if I have a religious spoof app that I'd like to make a similar visual "buddy christ" a mascot for without ever actually using the name "Buddy Christ". Would that infringe on a copyright?

Request for comment on Biographies of living people
Hello Wikiproject! Currently there is a discussion which will decide whether wikipedia will delete 49,000 articles about a living person without references, here:

Requests for comment/Biographies of living people

Since biographies of living people covers so many topics, nearly all wikiproject topics will be effected.

The two opposing positions which have the most support is:
 * 1) supports the deletion of unreferenced articles about a living person, User:Jehochman
 * 2) opposes the deletion of unreferenced articles about a living person, except in limited circumstances, User:Collect

Comments are welcome. Keep in mind that by default, editor's comments are hidden. Simply press edit next to the section to add your comment.

Please keep in mind that at this point, it seems that editors support deleting unreferenced BLP articles if they are not sourced, so your project may want to source these articles as soon as possible. See the next, message, which may help.

Tools to help your project with unreferenced Biographies of living people
If you don't already have this and are interested in creating a list of articles which need cleanup for your wikiproject see: Cleanup listings A list of examples is here
 * List of cleanup articles for your project

If you are interested in moving unreferenced blp articles to a special "incubation page", contact me, User talk:Ikip
 * Moving unreferenced blp articles to a special "incubation pages"

If you are interested in watchlisting all of the unreferenced articles once you install Cleanup_listings, contact me, User talk:Ikip
 * Watchlisting all unreferenced articles

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) 22:48, 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.
