Need help with completing assessments

[edit]

WikiProject Indiana currently has 250 articles that are still not yet assessed with a rating. Can anyone reading this help with the effort to knock these out? Thanks! Stefen 𝕋ower's got the power!!1! GabGruntwerk 20:56, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

To follow up, I've done 74 so far and we're up to 99% assessed. Still could use some help, with 176 pages left to assess. Stefen 𝕋ower's got the power!!1! GabGruntwerk 08:43, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
99.5% now assessed with 100 pages left to go. Stefen 𝕋ower's got the power!!1! GabGruntwerk 22:33, 28 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
99.8% now assessed with 40 pages left to go. Stefen 𝕋ower's got the power!!1! GabGruntwerk 20:55, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Done 100% of WP Indiana articles are now assessed for quality. Thanks to anyone who helped along the way. In a related bucket, we have nearly 3,500 articles not assessed for project importance. See Category:Unknown-importance Indiana articles. Stefen 𝕋ower's got the power!!1! GabGruntwerk 05:42, 30 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
To follow up, I have also recently gone through and set initial project importance for articles where this wasn't set already. Stefen 𝕋ower HuddleHandiwerk 04:20, 23 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

In case you haven't found out already, the Wikipedia community has decided to remove or replace Archive.today (and related) archive links used in citations within the Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:archive.today guidance for details. To help with this endeavor, we have two project reports that show where these links are within our project:

Please let me know if you have any questions. Cheers! Stefen 𝕋ower HuddleHandiwerk 05:55, 7 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Project members are invited to participate in the Destubathon of the Americas, a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to $2680 in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:06, 14 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Project updates and fixes (through May 16, 2026)

[edit]

Here's the latest updates and fixes I have completed for WikiProject Indiana:

  • Revised the intro to link to the new leaderboard (see next) and our project's recognized content.
  • New reports (click on each to learn more):
  • Note: I have additional project cleanups and reorganizations in mind (I mentioned some in an earlier post), but I haven't been able to schedule time for them yet.

I hope you enjoy the updates. Please let me know if you have any questions or ideas for other improvements. the Stefen 𝕋ower 03:08, 17 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]
