NC wikiprojectHow many of you guys agree that NC is a bureaucratic nightmare? I looked at Charlotte then I looked at the metro area then my head started to rotate in confusion. I vuleenter my services and forgive my spelling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mazman34340 (talk • contribs) 02:17, 5 January 2008 (UTC) GoldsboroAnyone have any pictures of the city or area?--AgnosticPreachersKid (talk) 09:55, 28 January 2008 (UTC) Allen JoinesJust as a head's up, Allen Joines, the current mayor of Winston-Salem, is listed as an intensive care article. It could really use some help if someone can find the time. I just added a picture, but I won't be able to get to it until at least the summer.

Project North Carolina: Articles of unclear notabilityHello, there are currently 10 articles in the scope of this project which are tagged with notability concerns. I have listed them here. (Note: this listing is based on a database snapshot of 12 March 2008 and may be slightly outdated.) I would encourage members of this project to have a look at these articles, and see whether independent sources can be added, whether the articles can be merged into an article of larger scope, or possibly be deleted. Any help in cleaning up this backlog is appreciated. For further information, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Notability. If you have any questions, please leave a message on the Notability project page or on my personal talk page. (I'm not watching this page however.) Thanks! --B. Wolterding (talk) 16:55, 23 March 2008 (UTC) I have nominated this article for Featured Article Review. Please come and review it, and help it retain FA status!

Here's where you can write the rough draft: Wikipedia:WikiProject North Carolina/Newsroom/Newsletter/May 2008. Let me know when you finish. Thanks! - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 19:32, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Newsletter deliveredJust delivered our first newsletter for May 2008. I think we could get some more members for this project. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 21:34, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Opt-outPlease opt-out for me on the newsletter. It messes up my archiving. Thanks. Toddst1 (talk) 19:14, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Duke University FARDuke University 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. 152.2.128.80 (talk) 00:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC) June newsletterWho's going to write the June newsletter? - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 19:30, 25 May 2008 (UTC) I recently listed Cook Out (restaurant) for deletion only to get a flood of "keep"s from users asserting its notability without doing much in the way of providing sources. Although I did find one source, I think that the article would benefit from some TLC from North Carolinians. Anyone up for the job?

The CarolinasThere is a discussion going on about the The Carolinas article that could use some perspective from participants in this project.--Rtphokie (talk) 01:02, 8 June 2008 (UTC) Assistance Requested at AfCHi there, I'm working on the WP:AFC backlog and I came across this request: Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation/2008-06-15#Stokes.2C_Pitt_County.2C_North_Carolina. I can't tell if this is worth it's own article. Any advice/taking care of the article would be appreciated. I'm going to cross post this to Wikiproject Cities also. Thanks! CredoFromStart talk 14:38, 27 June 2008 (UTC) Articles flagged for cleanupCurrently, 633 of the articles assigned to this project, or 14.5%, are flagged for cleanup of some sort.

Wolterding (talk) 17:46, 3 July 2008 (UTC) Changes to the WP:1.0 assessment schemeAs you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles. Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

It is modeled on the list of seasons for the Applachian State Football team, which is a Featured List. You can check out what I have done so far here - User:Remember/SandboxUNC. Please feel free to collaborate with me on this user page. Just so you know, I don't want to move this list onto its own page until it is in good shape and can qualify for a DYK candidate. Any help you could give would be appreciated. Remember (talk) 15:03, 23 July 2008 (UTC) Wikipedia 0.7 articles have been selected for North CarolinaWikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7. We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations. A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible. We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks! For the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial team, SelectionBot 22:54, 15 September 2008 (UTC) WatchlistI have created a watchlist containing only articles tagged with a WikiProject North Carolina talk page template. This can be helpful for anyone wishing to keep an eye on recent changes for this project. You can find it here. --Andrew Kelly (talk) 07:38, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

If you are interested in the NHL, please consider helping us keep these article current. To sign up, go to this page and add your name beside the team or teams you wish to particpate in.

Hope to here back from you, GrszReview! 16:47, 20 October 2008 (UTC) I just added this article (couldn't believe it wasn't already there) and will be going this saturday oct 25 to get some images for a gallery. I could use a little help on the article. I'm better at facts and photography than smooth flowing articles. I have also worked on High Rock Lake, Abbotts Creek, Lexington, NC (just moved here from Greensboro) and other NC topics. Not sure if there is more I can do. Not a native, but moved to NC in 1992 and loved it enough to stay. PHARMBOY (TALK) 23:05, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
North Carolina articles needing geographic coordinates169 articles in Category:North Carolina articles missing geocoordinate data do not have geographic coordinates. Coords are useful for making the article appear on Google Maps & many other mapping services; and they allow our users to click through to see the article subject location on a map. There's a short guide to on how to add geocodes to articles ... it really is very easy to do. I hope you'll take some time to ensure that North Carolina is as well represented as it can be on wikipedia by fixing up the listed articles. thanks --Tagishsimon (talk) 00:36, 26 November 2008 (UTC) Request to take article off project
