AURD Progress Indicator

Item		Required	Notes	Completion Status
	WP:ACCESS shield updates	Article Audits	Usage of small text in infoboxes to denotes shield meanings (eg. (M1) or (National Highway 1)) In intersection/interchange lists, normal sized text can be used, eg Roe Highway (State Route 3)	Partial
	AUshielding	Remove of direct image links	Use {{AUshield}} instead. Also need to remove all shield images from article prose, per WP:NOICONS Status: Complete other than in some junction lists.	Near Complete
	Infobox changes	Minor modifications	Infoboxes should be formatted per preferred usage guidelines. This includes: Remove of "large shields" at top; Adding roadway type and state/s; {{Plainlist}}-ing junction lists (and also including route numbers as text); Removing incorrect use of bold text. See the usage guidelines for more information.	Near Complete
	Missing junction lists	New junction lists	Format per MOS:RJL and WP:AURD/RJL. See WP:AURD/R for templates to use. For a worklist, see Category:WikiProject Australian Roads articles without a road junction list (337 articles)	Started
	Jermboy27 sockpuppet edits	Revert Jermboy27 sockpuppet edits	Revert or improve recent unconstructive edits made by sockpuppet accounts of blocked user Jermboy27 (including Thent and Thegwh), such as edits in List of road routes in Queensland and List of road routes in New South Wales. Full list of recent sockpuppet accounts are listed in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jermboy27	Completed 23 November 2022
	Commons or Local	Decide the correct place for shield images	There are many files indicate Australian road shields and signs on both Wikimedia Commons (c:Category:Diagrams of route signs of Australia and c:Category:Diagrams of road signs of Australia) and English Wikipedia (Category:Diagrams of Australian highway markers), and nearly 70% of them are duplicated, question is that whether these images are below Threshold of originality (TOO) in Australia, although they are below TOO in the United States, as all files on Commons must be either public domain or free licensed, in both United States and Australia, or otherwise they must be kept locally under fair use conditions. This matter is currently discussing at WT:AURD#Deletion requests for Australian road signs on Commons.	Started

When a task is completed, please delete within two weeks.

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 Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.
