This is a cool WikiProject, so thank you to the project members and to the interviewer! Seeing the readership stats for each day is fascinating - it makes sense that each page would spike once a year, but it had just never occurred to me before. It makes me wonder what uses Wikipedia has for readers that are less obvious to us as editors. Ganesha811 (talk) 20:17, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This sounds like a very interesting Wikiproject that I did not know even existed! I've already added a cited birth and death entry to 2 articles from a bio article I created. Ciridae (talk) 11:28, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Great to see people working here. I don't know how to exactly describe the topic area but these kind of "list of miscellaneous things" articles like days of the year, articles on numbers up to 100, articles on "2002 in Canada" and so on have such low-quality standards that develop from, I guess, lots of people thinking it's fine just to add one entry without a citation because none of the entries have citations. I'm glad to see a dedicated effort to improving one specific area as much as you can with the people you have. March 13, to pick one example you've marked as "up to citation standard", is exactly what it should look like. — Bilorv (talk) 19:41, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not to denigrate this project or it's accomplishments -- practically every Wikipedia article could benefit from better sourcing -- but I always assumed that certain articles didn't need sourcing. The ones I am thinking of would be list articles like the various days of the week, or the calendar years, since these all reference articles where this information should be present. -- llywrch (talk) 18:38, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
