== Hellas name ==

We should use the Hellas name for Wikipedia articles about our beloved country. The name Greece is not acceptable as it was used by conquerors and is not the name we the glorious Hellenes use. Please help to raise awareness about our preference to use the Hellas name internationally for our country and make Wikipedia use it.

Greek radio and television stations

New User:Trapezanidis 1453 has been creating a number of these, probably translating from Greek Wikipedia. It might be useful for someone from this project to assist him with infoboxes, cats, notability for broadcasters and English. I have left a note on his talk page suggesting the same. All the best: Rich Farmbrough17:35, 22 February 2015 (UTC).

There is limited information about Akovos, that I've been working on today. So, I thought I'd take a peak at the Greek article. There's some great historical information there - and I used Google translate to start to decode it - and I was hoping someone that spoke Greek / knows the Greek language could take a peak if my assumptions are correct for part of it. And, help with the few parts that I cannot begin to decipher.

The discussion is here and if someone has a bit of time, it would be great to expand the history section. There's some quite interesting information - it seems.--CaroleHenson (talk) 00:54, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cannabis in Greece needs improvement

We have a new article Cannabis in Greece, but it could really use improvement and expansion, especially from anyone who can read Greek sources. With a little polishing, it'd also be really useful to make a translated version for Greek Wikipedia since it's a topic of increasing interesting these days.

I could particularly use help refining and citing in what year did Greece first ban hashish and/or cannabis. I'm finding unreliable sources saying around 1920, or the end of WWI, but I'd like to find something from a scholarly source. Any Greek speakers here who can help?

One of your project's articles has been selected for improvement!

Hello,
Please note that Aeolian Islands, which is within this project's scope, has been selected as one of Today's articles for improvement. The article was scheduled to appear on Wikipedia's Community portal in the "Today's articles for improvement" section for one week, beginning today. Everyone is encouraged to collaborate to improve the article. Thanks, and happy editing!

I have pasted the 3 WIPO (6ter) protected Vergina Sun variants. These are protected national symbols of Greece (as of 1995).

Vergina Sun - Variation GR1

Vergina Sun - Variation GR2

Vergina Sun - Variation GR3

Thanks for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HistoryIsMyWingman (talkcontribs) 07:46, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
