May 2007 edition of the WikiProject Germany newsletter

[edit]
The Germany WikiProject Newsletter
Issue I - May 2007
From the editor

This is the first issue of WikiProject Germany's newsletter. The newsletter is intended to help all members of the project to keep up with new developments and coordinate new collaborative efforts.

Other areas where you can help
  • Assessment requests: Some open Requests for assessment need to be answered. To see new assessment requests as they come in, you can watchlist the assessment page.
  • More task forces and subprojects: As this WikiProject covers a very large topic area, it is helpful to add more task forces that focus on specific aspects of Germany. Currently, we have a Mainz task force, a Munich subproject and some joint task forces with other WikiProjects. Any project member is invited to start a new task force. Suggestions for possible topics:
    • Transportation in Germany
    • German politics (the political system of Germany and the biographies of its politicians)
    • German Democratic Republic

Be creative! If you have an idea, just suggest it on the project talk page (don't forget to watchlist it).

  • Categorization: Uncategorized Germany stubs need to be categorized
Project news
  • Criteria for B-Class status: The assessment criteria for B-Class have been changed. {{WikiProject Germany}} template now has 5 switches, B-Class-1 through B-Class-5 that correspond to 5 easily checked criteria that an article should meet to be assessed as B-Class. The advantage of this system is that now there is a clear boundary between Start-Class and B-Class articles. Authors of articles that were assessed as Start-Class now get more direct feedback what they should improve to attain a B-Class rating.

All of our B-Class, Start-Class and Stub-Class articles now need to be checked whether they meet any of the B-Class criteria. This is a major effort, and we need your help! If you want to help, but don't know how, please post at the project talkpage.

  • Cities and municipalities task force

A task force dedicated to creating and improving articles on all German cities and municipalities has been started and is looking for help.

This newsletter was delivered by Kusma using AWB to all members of WikiProject Germany. If you do not want to receive this newsletter in the future, please leave a note at the talk page of the Outreach department so we can come up with a better spamlist solution. Thank you, Kusma 11:48, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Friedrich Kellner

[edit]

I wonder if you might have the time and the interest to look at the Friedrich Kellner article. I believe you would enjoy reading about him and his WWII diary, which has been exhibited in museums in America and Germany, and soon in Sweden. The article is in the B-class , but I have been working on it extensively, and I hope it is now worthy of an A-class, or at least to be nominated to A-class. I hope you can look at it and make a judgment. This article has a sister-article, My Opposition, which has been designated an A-class. It also has a separate article about the movie, My Opposition: the Diaries of Friedrich Kellner, which has no designation. Friedrich Kellner's family was originally from Arnstadt (Thuringia), by the way, then moved to Mainz, then to Laubach (Hesse). I am the grandson of Friedrich Kellner, and the English translator of his diary. I am a former professor, retired now. I greatly appreciate advice and help with these articles. Thanks, Scott Rskellner 15:35, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The task force dedicated to creating and improving articles on all German cities and municipalities is happy to announce that there are now (at least) stub articles for all municipalities of Germany. Now the task force is looking for help in fleshing these out a little bit. The current phase of activity for the task force is to copy in infoboxes from the articles in German Wikipedia. If you want to help, even just for a few articles, look at the instructions and links here

  • Article Assessment:

There are now way over 26.000 articles tagged as part of our Wikiproject and many still need either an importance or a quality assessment. Also there are many more out there that do need to be tagged like approx 8000 municipalities. If you would like to help take a browse through Articles needing Importance assessment or Articles needing a basic quality assessment.

Need help in the German Wikipedia

[edit]

Hello Bundesamt!

I looked you up specifically because your listed under the German Wiki contributors and you seem to be part of the German Wiki project (by which I presume that you want to clean up the German Wiki). I'm struggling with the article "Nordic Walking" in the German Wiki. I'd also like to mention that with the help of Barek I managed to fix the English article to a more or less proper version then it used to be. In the German article there's a lot of unreferenced material, material that is historically incorrect etc. I brought out everything I think is wrong in the article's discussion page, where I also uploaded the translated version of the English Wiki article. My first try on editing was reversed, the reason being "Babelfish-accident" or something like that (no clue what it means), but I do understand, I might have been a might hasty. I simply over-edited the whole page last time... :D (Can't rush with these things) My point being, I was encouraged to discuss again, but there seems to be no discussion going on, so hopefully by directing more prying eyes I will attract some attention. I will paste this same message to two other editors listed in the German Wiki contributors.

Thanking you in advance, KMuuli (talk) 14:05, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:29, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:41, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
