Here are things new participants in WikiProject Louisville are encouraged to do:

  1. Especially Encouraged: Become acquainted with our project's goal and scope, as well as our list of tasks.
  2. Optional: Add yourself to the List of WikiProject Louisville participants below.
  3. Optional: If you have added yourself to our list of project participants, you may add {{WPLouisville-Participant}} (banner) or {{User WPLouisville}} (userbox) to your user page. Participants who use the banner will see all project alerts. Examples are below.
  4. Optional: Place WP:WikiProject Louisville on your watchlist, so you can keep track of new project developments and discussion. It may be useful to watch some of the project's subpages as well.
  5. Optional: Introduce yourself on our project's talk page.

  • Potentially receiving special communications from our project, such as newsletters and major alerts.
  • Displaying our really cool project banner on your user page or user talk page.

  1. Listed participants must have a Wikipedia account.
  2. Participants are sorted in alphabetical order. If a participant provides their last name as a separate word in their username, they are sorted using that.
  3. Wikipedia editors who have been indefinitely blocked, or have quit Wikipedia, or have been inactive (no edits done) in over 5 years, will be removed from the list. However, they are very welcome to re-list themselves if they return to Wikipedia.
