This page is within the scope of WikiProject Belarus, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of Belarus on Wikipedia.

This project would aim to clean up and collect articles related to Belarus, with a minimum of conflict, like the stated goals at the Law Enforcement WikiProject. This is a thorny area, but there are projects for hotspots like Sudan and Iraq, so we can accomplish this if there are dedicated folks of all stripes willing to work together.
Other than the items I have listed on the front, I have no idea what the quality level is for most articles. Stub should be very obvious, since they will be tagged with the stub-notice. I am not sure what else can be done for right now, but I thank all that have come aboard. User:Zscout370(Return Fire)04:39, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Indiscriminate tagging
Please do not tag articles that have nothing to do with Belarus as such. Several purely Russian articles on my watchlist have been tagged. This projectcruft is pointless, especially as you clearly lack the rescources to do anything with these articles. Johnbod04:40, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
As I said before, everything that is in Category:Belarus is getting touched by the template in a automatic process. I am not sure how long it will take before it finishes, but I kindly ask for the bot to finish before we figure out what to keep and what to remove.

It seems to be a very remote connection between Belarus and the Crown Heights riot. The driver of the car was a member of Chabad, and Chabad's first leader (several hundred years ago) was from Belarus.... Edstat11:50, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
If we're wanting to keep it neutral, shouldn't red and green be avoided, like the green for the background shading? Chris19:24, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
It is just the combo of red and green people do not like, just like a combo of red and white is not good. Green, all by itself, is no big deal. But I can toy around with the box more. User:Zscout370(Return Fire)19:29, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
My apologies if I'm offending anyone, but when I think of Belarus, green comes to mind. Just like when I think Ukraine, yellow comes to mind...etc. To me it seems like red and white is almost out of the question, that's like painting the Ukrainian Userbox orange...
Also, all project members are welcome to work on the Portal itself. It is pretty dormant, so we can fix it up so we can hopefully get the portal to Featured status. User:Zscout370(Return Fire)21:52, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Yeah. Now, we should work on it now, but I will need some time to see what sections should be made. We should look at the "featured portals" for nations and see what they did. User:Zscout370(Return Fire)05:38, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
I don't know, I presume that this police officer was a relative of his, or else he wouldn't be so committed. Take a look at his edit history, it seems like all his edits are dedicated to this person. But quite frankly, I cannot understand why Fodient doesn't get the point. Regards, Bogdanщо?03:41, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
I remember reading the story of the fallen police officer, but I do not know the reason why the user is doing it. I would even go as far as suggesting that we should not go to DRV about this, since there was no flaw in the deletion process. I also notified the ANI that we were contacted about remaking the article and that we have rejected those offers. User:Zscout370(Return Fire)04:43, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
FAR for Belarusian Republican Youth Union
Belarusian Republican Youth Union has been nominated for a featured article review. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to featured quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, articles are moved onto the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Remove" the article from featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Reviewers' concerns are here. – Ilse@01:24, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
May I enquire as to why the Talk:Chernobyl page has been incorporated within this project? The Chernobyl article itself does not seem to be incorporated, and the city has got nothing to do with Belarus whatsoever: it does not have bonds with the Chernobyl nuclear disaster except for the name of the nuclear power station (situated 22 kilometers away from the city) and the fact that it happened in the raion of which Chernobyl was the capital. The Chernobyl article is merely about the city in the Ukraine on which Belarus has got no options. Eddyspeeder (talk) 02:26, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
