    Wikipedia:WikiProject Hillary Rodham Clinton

    Interested project members are welcome to join WikiProject Hillary Rodham Clinton, a collaborative effort to improve Wikipedia articles related to Hillary Rodham Clinton. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:21, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    @Another Believer:. I noticed you don't have a template or anything yet. Are you planning on creating a new template for that project or simply adding it as a supported project of WPUS. Let me know and I can help you implement whatever change you want. May I also suggest getting a list of articles together that should be included, you might also want to drop a note on WikiProject Feminism if you haven't already, there are likely some individuals such as Missvain that may be interested in this as well. I could see this being a good way of improving a lot of articles in in the next few months while her campaign is going on as well as allowing better visibility of vandals and manipulation. 96.255.237.170 (talk) 21:25, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    I was planning to start creating templates, article lists, banners, etc. over time, but was going to see what other project members might be interested in working on first. I would most certainly welcome any assistance re: WikiProject structure, templates, banners, etc. I also posted a note at WikiProject X inviting participants to use WP:HRC as a pilot for any new tools they may be working on, especially since this is a brand new project. I will be sure to notify WP:Feminism as well. Thanks for the suggestions! ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:57, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    No problem. Its about time to go night night where I am so I'll draft out the template tomorrow and post it tomorrow evening when I get home from work unless someone beats me to it. If you check out the Members tab of this project you'll see a couple bots listed that might be useful. Also, once the project is created there are only a couple bots left that can do WikiPrject anner tagging and that's Anomiebot by Anomie and Yobot by Magioladitis. One of them may be willing to do a run once you refine the list of articles...if needed. Like I said, worst case scenario, even if this project doesn't gain steam, it will be a good way to monitor the article set while the campaign is going on. I envision a lot of vandalism and shenanigans.96.255.237.170 (talk) 02:31, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    @Another Believer: sorry it took so long but I dropped the code for your Wikiproject template at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Hillary Rodham Clinton. I tried to create the template but it wouldn't let me as an IP. Its just a basic outline and there is a lot that could be added but that should be enough to get started. There are still a few pages that need to be created but the red links on the template should lead you there. Please let me know if you need anything else. At least until someone blocks me for being an IP. 96.255.237.170 (talk) 00:51, 16 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    Good luck to those involved in this endeavor, may I remind those participating of WP:NOTADVOCATE, WP:BALANCE, and WP:NEU.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 01:25, 16 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't think anyone is advocating doing something like that, but I do think this would be a good way to keep an eye on related articles. She has been affiliated with some controversial stuff so its bound to attract spammers, trolls and vandals not to mention the likely opposing politician. 96.255.237.170 (talk) 00:41, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    WikiProject Virginia

    Wikipedia:WikiProject_Virginia exists, but doesn't seem to be referenced on the Members list page for WP United States. What's the reason for this? -- Mysterious Gopher (talk), 22:13, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    From what I can tell, some US related projects opted to use...or continue to use, their own WikiProject banner. Others such as Texas, Utah and Washington opted to use the one for WikiProject United States. It appears the Members list is the same. The ones on the members list here are the ones that use the WPUS banner. Since WikiProject Virginia doesn't, they have their own members list. I hope that helps.

    John Coleman

    Need someone to check John Coleman (news weathercaster), usually it is long term disrupted by socks of Sonic2030. Discussion can be found here. I find it clearer that the American Meteorological Society's position on global warming has no bearing on John Coleman's position on the issue and keeping this sentence at the end of this section makes the article appear polemical, as said by one other editor before.

    Main article needed to prevent deletion of the Template:2010s controversial killings of African Americans

    As the nom in the TfD at Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2015_May_3 noted, without a main article, it is difficult to prove this is not a NPOV OR. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:58, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    why does the united states have all the terrirories it has now?

    Well, the theory is that it got all the land just to harvest poop. Which I believe is true. As my teacher found it out himself. Does anyone else have the same thoughts?
