UnitedHealth Group

Hi, this is Jessica, I'm an employee at UnitedHealth Group and am here on behalf of the company. I will not edit articles myself because of this conflict of interest, but I have found a few ideas to clean up the UnitedHealth Group article infobox, which contains the incorrect chairman and links to products that are redirected back to the UnitedHealth Group page: Talk:UnitedHealth_Group#Infobox

Can editors please review this request?

There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Neopaganism in Minnesota#Requested move 24 March 2023 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. ❯❯❯ Raydann(Talk) 06:55, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Minnesota Magazine & Publishing Association

Does anyone have knowledge of the Minnesota Magazine & Publishing Association? The Internet Archive has a copy of the top page of their member directory from 2018. Somewhere the organization might have been changed to the Minnesota Media & Publishing Association. Both use the initialism MMPA, and one or the other let their domain expire at mmpa.net. I am still trying to find a working URL for a list of members which might be our only reliable overview of local news. This organization was mentioned in Media Tales by O'Meara and Keller (2007); who say they had 95 members statewide in 2006. Thank you. -SusanLesch (talk) 16:02, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved. Internet Archive had a copy from 2011 and 2013.[1] -SusanLesch (talk) 13:29, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mapping Prejudice

Greetings. I made a new stub for Mapping Prejudice. If anybody has time, there is a bit of text on its talk page that might help you get to DYK. -SusanLesch (talk) 18:42, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
