Grrr

Here's our reason to tag cats/templates/whatnot with the WikiProject banner :(—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 17:14, February 25, 2009 (UTC)

Hmm, so what to do about that? Do we start tagging cats, temps, etc? Of course by placing them in their own WP:RUSSIA cat? Is the banner already set up for this? What to do? Russavia ^Dialogue 16:44, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I thought you were out enjoying sunshine till April?

If we decide to go ahead and tag all those pages, we can start doing so whenever we please. The banner supports all assessment cats by default, although we will need to restore some of the assessment cats first, such as Category:Disambig-Class Russia articles, etc. I'll do that, and then we can tag all that auxiliary cruft as we encounter it (unless someone wants to make a project out of this). Someone also needs to go through the banners and replace all {{WPRUSSIA}}s with {{WikiProject Russia}}s. Do you think Alex would mind? :)—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:13, March 2, 2009 (UTC)

Hey, no, it was March, don't know why I wrote April. Anyway, I'm back. If you can do the assessment cats and that, it would be good. But why would we need to change WPRUSSIA for Wikiproject Russia, when they are redirects? Or am I missing something here? --Russavia ^Dialogue 16:19, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that the article alerts service can only watch one banner per project and does not support redirects. So, we can watch either articles marked with {{WPRUSSIA}} or articles marked with {{WikiProject Russia}}, but not both. Since there are many more articles tagged with the latter, it makes sense to swap the former for it. In all other respects, of course, the choice of the banner makes no difference; it's only the article alerts that are affected.

Welcome back, by the way. Hope you had a fun and relaxing wikibreak.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:23, March 2, 2009 (UTC)

OK, I will try to make changes as I come across them, and will start adding the banner to categories, templates, and even images, when I come across them. And thanks, the wikibreak although relaxing was hardly 'fun', unless you call building a 15,000 contact database 'fun' :) --Russavia ^Dialogue 12:05, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I am building a database of 190,000 Russian inhabited localities, and am having fun alright :) Of course, I am not set against a deadline of any sort—that would've taken some fun out of it for sure...—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 14:37, March 3, 2009 (UTC)

Maps

Thanks for the link. Whoever did this s/he's done a great job of collecting all those maps. I'll look more closely at them after I'll have returned from my vacation. Alæxis_¿question? 06:39, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New SO and Abkhaz articles I've started

I've recently started Foreign relations of South Ossetia and Foreign relations of Abkhazia articles. They are in need of improvement (new information) and watchful eyes (to deter vandalism and POV pushers). --Tocino 20:55, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. I've placed them on my watchlists, and will keep an eye on them. I'll try to add details in the future also, just working on other things at the moment. But if you need anything, let me know. Cheers --Russavia ^Dialogue 21:25, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Russian embassy in Belgrade

Hi. I think we (fellow Wikipedians in Belgrade) will meet tomorrow. My camera is not working these days but I will see if I can do something about making few shots or please somebody to do so. First three buildings are ok, they are in the down town. Fourth one is a little bit away, so we will see ... --JustUser (talk) 16:11, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
