Sub-Articles Merge

All regional articles in the {{Current events article}} template need to be merged. Everything is a very short article that is not updated frequently. They may be merged into a single page entitled Current regional events or current national events. Then, as with current events in Malaysian and Singaporean articles, we may be able to use flags to help show the countries where the current events occurred:

• Multiple events occur.

Just a suggestion. However, because there are now too many unnecessary articles. joturn e r 02:23, May 1st, 2006 (UTC)

I do not agree about combining everything. However I agree with the current event page in an area, that is for southeast asia, Msia sg thai etc in Southeast Asia; for europe, africa, east asia, southeast etc. In this way, it focuses on a region. __earth ^(talk) 02:38, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

I also disagree. Recent events in Australia and New Zealand are updated about three times a week on average; I saw 12 stories in April 2006 in Australia and New Zealand and 16 in March 2006 in Australia and New Zealand. There has been no story in May, but this is the first day of every month. I do not mind the current inactive event pages (if inactive means there may be no updates for a month) removed from the {{Current events article}} template so they remain archived if new and sharp maintainers come together to restart them. Merging multiple pages can also help. If we extend the pages of Australia and New Zealand to cover all Oceania, then a dozen or more stories covered by the Portal: Oceania each month will be added to that page. But I suggest that a few months ago (in Talk: Current events in Australia and New Zealand, and no one answered.-gadfium 03:26, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Maybe the continent will work better? Maybe "America", "Europe", "Africa", "Asia", and "Oceania"? joturn e r 04:00, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Continent is good but for continents like Asia, I think it's better to divide into sub-region. Again, I will support the current Singapore Malaysia and Thailand event page to the latest events in Southeast Asia. I would oppose attempts to integrate Singaporean Malaysia into one large Asian page. __earth ^(talk) 05:09, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

What will be considered an adequate level of activity? Is this measured in posts per month, or maybe also in the number of regular contributors? -gadfium 05:32, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm also against any merge of active event pages. Recent events in Australia and New Zealand form the basis for the "Year in Australia/New Zealand" series.-- cj | talk 09:43, May 3, 2006 (UTC)

I also oppose the proposed merger. This merger proposal needs to be considered at a more detailed level. For example, combining current events with current events in Hong Kong and Macao can help both groups, but other groups, such as current events in Australia and New Zealand seem to reach critical mass. Jonathan O'Donnell 19:49, May 24, 2006 (UTC)

It will not work. There are many, many examples of recent events that are very significant for a particular country's inhabitants but residents of neighboring countries have never heard of it. Local politics, local celebrities, etc. Often known locally only. If a regional page is created, they should be next to not a country page. - Curps 04:51, May 5, 2006 (UTC)

I think this idea should be considered, although it needs a little effort (hu) to update all the last monthly articles to conform to this standard. joturn e r 01:40, April 6, 2006 (UTC)

This will be very easy actually, given that all Jan2003-Dec2005 is templated, it's just a matter of rearranging the template transclusions - easy for humans or bots. I agree with GT that we should go for the natural order rather than back down. Pcb21 Pete 10:33, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Completed for 2003 until now. Pcb21 Pete 08:52, April 7, 2006 (UTC)

Wow; I did not realize it would be that fast. joturn e r 10:30, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

2002 is done so everything is done. Thanks again Pete! GT 05:35, April 26, 2006 (UTC)

I speak too fast. Deaths in March 2006, et al all had the same problem, as well as the list of deaths on every monthly page. Argh. GT 06:10, April 26, 2006 (UTC)

Yuck! You're right at the bottom of the page, but we want to re-organize things, we want to avoid multiple list issues, especially when multiple lists are on separate pages. Pcb21 Pete 07:19, April 26, 2006 (UTC)

Merge the sub-articles

• Unnecessary sub-article incorporation (eg recent events in Africa) goes back to the main current event article (suggested by Pcb21)

Accept context

• Make sure the appropriate event accepts the context by Wikipedia: How Current events page works

International interests

• Make sure an interesting international news item includes

Delete template

• Eliminate daily article templates as seen in almost all months between 2003 and 2005 (ie all days between 1 January 2005 and 31 January 2005 "templated" to January 2005)

If you see (for example) February 16 and February 2006, you see a lot of overlap, which occurred on February 16, 2006. This information is created, sourced, corrected, and updated (or not) separately, unavoidable with the result that some events big is only listed by month of day or by month of year. And then there are the years like 2006. For example, February 16th list no events at all for 2006, list 2006 one event for February 16 (Kobe Airport opened), and February 2006 had ten events for February 16th, but not Kobe's opening. If that is the most important event of that date, then February 2006 is completely inactive. But if that is less important than the other ten listed in February 2006, then 2006 has a strange choice. And I am pretty sure that some of the events of February 16, 2006 are more important than many of those listed on February 16 for other years.

So that goal might be possible to avoid the overlap of such duplication. That may mean embracing the wholesale template, as it did for January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2005. Using "& lt; noinclude & gt;... & lt;/noinclude & gt;" with the appropriate text, the risk is inevitable that this is taken for independent articles, as happened on June 1, 2003. Actually, they can stay in Template: space. Or maybe some new space is created for this purpose. Just an idea. Lambiam ^Talk 20:58, April 26, 2006 (UTC)

I never really liked the inclusion for 2003-2005. However, I do see inconsistencies between the articles of the year, month, and date. I think the Feb. 16 article is correct because it has nothing for 2006, but February 2006 is right in being comprehensive. The 2006 list of events for February 16, however, is not good. I believe the date article should contain the most important events of all time that date, the year article should contain the most important events of the year (and the most important events of each month), and the month's articles should be comprehensive that includes those events on page year and date and then some. joturn e r 04:15, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Ending monthly archive

I just realized something today that made me appear in the template. Because today is May 1st, the beginning of the month, Recent events only contain events for that day. If we use templates, it would be trivial to just leave the last few days of April on the page, or even just go all out to change the current events article into a page that always consists of templates from the last days (fixed numbers). Every night a person or bot can stick to a new day at the top and delete the oldest day. Furthermore the current monthly page will fill in as the day template the individual receives the entry during their attendance on the Current events page and there is no need to make any changes at the end of the month other than maybe switching the template's "Temporary list" on current events with existing in the new month, and such things. - GT 08:00, May 1st, 2006 (UTC)

I really like the idea; it does not really make sense that the current event page on April 30 is much longer than May 1 just because it's too late in the month. I added a notification on the current event talk page. joturn e r 03:54, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

I like the idea of ​​not only archiving all events early in the new month because the new moon leaves us without anything that happened yesterday. Robovski 00:47, May 6, 2006 (UTC)

Suggestions

It looks like you're interested in the current monthly event page and organizing things, but I also recommend working on a stub article. In particular, news related to Africa is often ignored. This would be good for collaboration, for example the 2006 Horn of Africa food crisis article. I did a little work there, when it was featured in "In the news", but it still needs major work. Some people work together to find more sources and details, and improve articles can go a long way. --Aude ( talk | contribs ) 02:11, April 6, 2006 (UTC)

Current events portal

There is a discussion about moving the Current events page to the portal namespace, Portal: Current events. The design changes on the current event page will be minimal, although open for discussion. To weigh (along with reasons for moving), see Wikipedia: Portal/Proposal # Portal: Current events. --Aude ( talk contribs ) 01:52, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Project Directory

Hello. The WikiProject Council is currently in the process of developing the master directory of existing WikiProjects to replace and update existing Wikipedia: WikiProject Council/Directory. WikiProjects is very important in helping wikipedia achieve its goal of being truly encyclopedic. Please review the following pages:

• User: Badbilltucker/Directory Culture,
• User: Badbilltucker/Directory Culture 2,
• User: Badbilltucker/Religious philosophy and directory,
• User: Badbilltucker/Directory Sports,
• User: Badbilltucker/Geographic Directory,
• User: Badbilltucker/Geographical Directory/United States, (note: This page will be re-heated to reflect its content more accurately)
• User: Badbilltucker/Public history and directory, and
• Users: Badbilltucker/Science directory

and make changes to the entry for your project that you want. There is also a portal directory, in User: B2T2/Portal, listing all existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portal or comment section of your entry in the directory. Three columns of assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for the use of both the project itself and for other projects. Having such a department will allow the project to more quickly and easily identify the most important articles and articles that most need improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project will benefit from the department that handles these things. It is my hope to have an existing directory replaced by an updated and improved version of the directory on November 1st. Please make whatever changes you want on the entry for your project before that. If you have any questions about this issue, please do not hesitate to contact me. thanks. B2T2 22:14, October 23, 2006 (UTC)

Sorry if you tried to update it before, and the correction has been lost. I have now moved the new draft in the old directory page, so the links should work better. I apologize for any confusion you may encounter. B2T2 14:01, October 24, 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia Day Awards

Hello, all. At first, I hope to try to do this as part of Esperanza's proposal for the award weekend ending on Wikipedia Day, January 15th. However, some people have once again proposed the entire Esperanza to be removed, so it may not work. It is the intention of the Appreciation of Evening proposal to set aside the time given when the various individuals who have made important and significant contributions to the encyclopedia will be recognized and respected. I believe that, with some effort, this can still be done. My proposal is, by luck, trying to set various WikiProjects and other wikipedia entities to take part in bigger celebrities from its contributors that will take place in January, probably starting January 15, 2007. I have created another new subpage for myself ( my weakness, I'm worried) at User talk: Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would really appreciate any indication of the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or helpful in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 17:41, December 29, 2006 (UTC)

ITN Reform

The "In The News" section on the main page is broken. While all other parts, such as Featured Articles, are updated daily, ITN gets two or three new news items a week. The same image of Fernando Lugo has been in ITN since April 20, almost two weeks. In addition, deaths such as Arthur C. Clarke did not reach the main page, or "local" interest items such as London mayor election. I think we need to make ITN more open and dynamic.

Request a comment about Biography of the living person

Hello Wikiproject! Currently there is a discussion that will decide whether wikipedia will remove 49,000 articles about people living without reference, here:

Wikipedia: Request for comment/Biography of the living

Since the biography of living people covers many topics, almost all topics of the project will be affected.

The two most supported opposites are:

1. support deletion of un-referenced articles about living people, User: Jehochman
2. oppose deletion of un-referenced articles about living people, except in limited circumstances Users: Collect

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

Please keep in mind that at this point, it seems that the editor supports removal of unreferenced BLP articles if they are not sourced, so your project may want to get this article as soon as possible. Check out the next message, which can help.

Current events Articles and Archives

At the end of each month, the current event page is currently moved to a monthly archive page (for example, March 2006). Over the years, the format of these monthly pages has been changed and changed several times. As a result, there is currently no standard on how this monthly page views. However, some standardization suggestions include:

• Order the date of the month in alphabetical order ahead (suggested by GT)
• Eliminate daily article templates as seen in almost all months between 2003 and 2005 (ie all days between 1 January 2005 and 31 January 2005 "templated" to January 2005)

On the main current event page, some plans include:

• Unnecessary sub-article incorporation (eg recent events in Africa) goes back to the main current event article (suggested by Pcb21)
• Ensure appropriate events accept context according to Wikipedia: How Current events page works

Whether in the archive or on the current page, destinations include:

• Make sure an interesting international news item includes

To discuss the above objectives, see the talk page.

Articles About Current Events

Another important goal for WikiProject is to expand articles on current events. Some potential project collaborations include:

• 2008 Russian submarine accident
• 2008 PÃÆ' Â © tion-Ville school collapsed
• Your article here

Depending on how quickly a decent number of editors join the project, we can fix any of the above articles immediately.

Year

One possible goal is to collaborate with WikiProject Years to work on standardizing current events on the page. Each year article (eg 2006) should only include important important events internationally. Perhaps a clearer standard can be developed in collaboration with WikiProject Years.

Comment on WikiProject X proposal

Hello! As you know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia are struggling to stay active once they are established. I believe there are many potential WikiProjects to facilitate cross-field collaboration, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will learn what makes WikiProjects successfully defend the editor 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 previous posting error If someone has moved my message to the talk page, feel free to delete this post.) Harej (talk) 22:47, October 1, 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject X is being displayed!

Hello all!

You may have received a message from me previously asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we focused on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProject: good, bad, or neutral. We're also looking for WikiProjects who may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participation easier and projects more manageable. If you or WikiProject you are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be prompted to change anything that goes against its wish. 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 Wikipedia: WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

WikiProject collaboration notifications from the WikiProject Portal

The reason I am contacting you is because there is one or more portals included in this subject, and the WikiProject Portal is currently doing a large drive to automate portals that might affect them.

Portal is being redesigned.

New design features are being applied to existing portals.

Currently, we are getting ready to skip the maintenance portal where the introductory section will be upgraded to no longer need subpages. Instead of the copied and pasted static quotes are self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusions, using the {{Transclude lead excerpt}} template.

Discussions about this can be found here .

A dedicated portal maintainer is encouraged to register as a member of the project here , noting the portal they are keeping, so that the portal is bypassed by the maintenance permissions. Currently, we are interested in improving the abandoned and abandoned portals. There will be opportunities for portals that are retained to participate in later, or portal managers can handle upgrades (portals they manage) personally at any time.

​​â € <â €

On April 8, 2018, the RfC proposal ("Request for comment") was created to remove all portals and namespace portals. On April 17th, the WikiProject Portal is rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12, RfC closed with the result to keep the portal, with a margin of about 2 to 1 to keep the portal.

There is an article in the current edition of Plang that interviewed project members about RfC and WikiProject Portals.

Since rebooting, WikiProject Portal has been busy building tools and components to update the portal.

So far, 84 editors have joined.

If you want to keep abreast of what's going on with the portal, check out the bulletin archive.

If you have any questions about what's going on with the portal or WikiProject Portal, please post it on the WikiProject talk page.
