Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject X is live!

Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

A new newsletter directory is out!

A new Newsletter directory has been created to replace the old, out-of-date one. If your WikiProject and its taskforces have newsletters (even inactive ones), or if you know of a missing newsletter (including from sister projects like WikiSpecies), please include it in the directory! The template can be a bit tricky, so if you need help, just post the newsletter on the template's talk page and someone will add it for you.

WikiProject Celtic history and culture vs. WikiProject Celts

I am wondering if this WikiProject should be combined with WikiProject Celts. I reactivated this project as I did not know about that, though it seems that one may have had a more active presence in the past. --- FULBERT (talk) 14:28, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Move Suggestion: WikiProject Celtic history and culture > WikiProject Gaulish history and culture

WikiProject Celtic history and culture has been dormant, and actually never appears to have actually started as there is little evidence since it was created that anything ever happened here. There also appears to be a lot of potential overlap between WikiProject Celtic history and culture and WikiProject Celts, with the latter having tagged articles and the former (this current one) not having even been set up.

As such, I propose moving this project to a more specific, unfilled niche where there is a need. As such, I propose moving this Project in order to keep its basic structure and allow for forwarding for anybody who may have searched for it before, into a more narrow focused group of Celts, namely those who were the continental Celtic peoples, the Gauls. To focus this undeveloped WikiProject, I propose moving this WikiProject to: WikiProject Gaulish history and culture.

Thoughts or suggestions will be appreciated. --FULBERT (talk) 12:52, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
