If you are new here, please take a moment to introduce yourself. I am Willscrlt, the guy who started this WikiProject task force. I was one of the first people to figure out a way to suppress automatic categorization in templates, and I was the first to document that process. Since then, I have received a lot of positive feedback from folks, and I am glad that the concept has been well-received. Unfortunately, category suppression still comes across as a bit confusing to some people, so I started the task force to help coordinate and focus the efforts of other interested Wikipedians in improving the process. I'd love for you to join me. Also, if you have questions about the process, feel free to ask them here. — Willscrlt ( “Talk” ) 12:01, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
But I am actually thinking that a slightly different name might be better. It's not just category suppression that we are discussing, but all things to do with automatic categorization and the suppression thereof. It broadens the WP scope a bit, and that's probably good. If so, then the WP name should probably be changed or tweaked. Any suggestions? Any other related topics that should be included? I don't want to tread on WP Templates, but if there are any other template-category related things that should be considered, it would be better to do so now than later. — Willscrlt ( “Talk” ) 02:37, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
The scope of this project seems ultra-limited even with the above proposed expansion. What about "WikiProject ParserFunctions" or something? – xeno talk 16:23, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
This WikiProject appears to be inactive, so I have tagged it as such. Feel free to revert if there is some active collaboration that I couldnt find. John Vandenberg ( chat) 00:23, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

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)
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 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.
