As the Scouting WikiProject has been formed since early January 2006, we've had many great improvements made in this area of Wiki and I want to personally thank everyone for their help. We don't always agree on things, but we keep moving forward. YIS, Rlevse22:09, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Note From Wootking
I enjoy using wikipedia very much, and every project I do has Wikipedia at the top of the bibliography. Thank you for the warm welcome, Johntex, it makes me feel appreciated.

¿Qué onda carnal? I see you have added your name to the list of participants of WikiProject Mexican-Americans/Chicanos. Let me be the first to say "¡Bienvenido!" Feel free to add articles you begin to the list of articles covered by the project, or to begin any of the red-linked articles in the tasks section. If you have any questions or just want to chat, ask away on the project talkpage or hit me on my talkpage. Some areas in which we are currently deficient are women's history and other women's issues, Pre-Chicano Movement history, and topics from outside of California. If you can help in any of these areas, it would be greatly appreciated.
We have also set ourselves the long-term goal of raising the Chicano Movement article to featured status, if that topic is of interest to you.
I notice that you are a fairly new user. Here is one small tip: You may want to consider moving your userboxes to your userpage and reserving your talkpage for interactions with other members of the community. You are free to do as you please with your own pages, but mixing userpage and talkpage content is generally discouraged.
I look forward to seeing yur contributions to the project. We have a special barnstar for project members, if it is any incentive. Thanks for your interest and your contributions to the 'pedia, --Rockero22:58, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi thank you for joining the WikiProject. There is still plenty of scope for influencing
things and making your contribution count. We are about establishing standards
for the various Archaeology based articles and writing articles that
meet our own and others high standards, and to improve Wikipedia's diet of articles
on this wonderful discipline. Don't for get our {{User WikiProject Archaeology}} userbox. If you have any questions, do ask. Please be very welcome. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk)08:22, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Welcome to WP:WPEE! We hope you have an enjoyable time editing articles related to EastEnders! Please read WP:WPEE for guidelines etc.
I have noticed that you have joined many, many WikiProjects recently. Are you intending on actually helping out in our project or do you just want the user box? (I've also noticed you haven't edited any EastEnders-related articles...) Trampikey18:50, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Apple Corps v. Apple Computer. A case brought by Apple Corps against Apple Computer, regarding possible infringement of a previous agreement between the two parties in respect of distribution of music, was heard in a London High Court. The story made Wikipedia's front page due to a nomination by our own Kingboyk. The story had an amusing second wave in the news and on Wikipedia; be sure to read the article on Guy Goma if you missed it!
Project News
The Beatles article has been approved for inclusion in Wikipedia Version 0.5, making it one of the first 20 articles to be selected and the first in the Music category.
Eleven new articles have been listed in the Project Log since 1 May.
The hottest Project page this month has been Policy Talk, where some lively discussion has taken place regarding the (perennial) question of the capitalisation of the letter T in "The Beatles". After seeking the comments of Wikipedian third parties unrelated to the project, the proponents and opponents concluded that the current naming policy was correct. The discussion had the added bonus of bringing in some new members.
Project member (and "co-instigator" of The Beatles Project) Lar was made an Administrator. Project member Kingboyk (the other guilty party) has been awarded a Music Barnstar for his contributions, including his work within The Beatles Project, and has also stewarded the KLF article to Featured Article status this month. Sometimes-contributor ZincOrbie has also been awarded a Barnstar for his work on the Badfinger article. Congratulations to all!
The Beatles have been in the real world news recently, but work on The Beatles Project continues as before. This newsletter keeps you up-to-date with what has been happening with the project and, perhaps more importantly, what needs to be done (see the "Issue of the Month" above and the "To Do List" below-left).
If you've just joined, add your name to the Participants section of Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy!
Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 003 – July 2006). All and any contributions are welcome. Just let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or start editing!
As the project is currently just starting, our more experienced editors are working on the project infrastructure, classifying articles, and listing/assessing red links. Your assistance is welcome. If you would prefer to just edit - and why wouldn't you? - we have a choice selection of red links to turn blue and articles to clean! Now let's get busy.
Project: Add {{WPBeatles}} to the talk pages of all Beatles-related articles. Send a newsletter to members, canvas for new members, and coordinate tasks. Enter articles classed as stubs into this list (under To Expand) and also list articles needing cleaning and other work here.
If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list and add your achievement to the project log.
Want to help on next month's newsletter? Don't want to receive these in future? Don't want it subst'd next time? - It's all here
