;Other areas where you can help

Assessment requests: Some open Requests for assessment need to be answered. To see new assessment requests as they come in, you can [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Germany/Assessment&action=watch watchlist] the assessment page.
More task forces and subprojects: As this WikiProject covers a very large topic area, it is helpful to add more task forces that focus on specific aspects of Germany. Currently, we have a Mainz task force, a Munich subproject and some joint task forces with other WikiProjects. Any project member is invited to start a new task force. Suggestions for possible topics:
Transportation in Germany
German politics (the political system of Germany and the biographies of its politicians)
German Democratic Republic

Be creative! If you have an idea, just suggest it on the project talk page (don't forget to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Germany&action=watch watchlist it]).

;Project news

Criteria for B-Class status: The assessment criteria for B-Class have been changed. {{WikiProject Germany}} template now has 5 switches, B-Class-1 through B-Class-5 that correspond to 5 easily checked criteria that an article should meet to be assessed as B-Class. The advantage of this system is that now there is a clear boundary between Start-Class and B-Class articles. Authors of articles that were assessed as Start-Class now get more direct feedback what they should improve to attain a B-Class rating.

All of our B-Class, Start-Class and Stub-Class articles now need to be checked whether they meet any of the B-Class criteria. This is a major effort, and we need your help! If you want to help, but don't know how, please post at the project talkpage.

Cities and municipalities task force

A task force dedicated to creating and improving articles on all German cities and municipalities has been started and is looking for help.

Stavanger

Thanks for pointing it out to me. I forgot. there's individual tags in the text that address the outstanding issues. takk. Michellecrisp 11:20, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

: Happy to review. Lykke til Michellecrisp 11:27, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Takk

Takk for message. Nice to see others agree. I am bewildered when people don't understand/respect the international nature of Wikipedia, anyone can edit. Some things I put on tags on which is totally part of Wikipedia policy. Michellecrisp 12:28, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

: Takk for message. Yes you are right, outside scrutiny/review is good for Wikipedia. A key thing is if it's easy to understand for someone not familiar with the subject. And WP:CITE places the onus for statements to be citated. I think it is irrelevant where people come from, Wikipedia is international by nature, I have no problem with overseas people editing Australian articles. Michellecrisp 06:42, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Inappropriate behavior issue

I note the last time he was warned was 20 July. I assume these attacks have continued afterwards?

Do inform me if any more attacks take place.

Your [[User:AmiDaniel/VandalProof|VandalProof]] Application

Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Eivind. As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank again for your interest in VandalProof. ^∆ 22:36, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
