Wikipedia:WikiProject Months in the 1900s
- The following discussion is an archived proposal of the WikiProject below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the project's talk page (if created) or the WikiProject Council). No further edits should be made to this page.
The proposed WikiProject was created at Wikipedia:WikiProject Months in the 1900s. Created following this proposal; now inactive. Ajpolino (talk) 22:48, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Description
[edit]This WikiProject will be for month articles such as January 1900 in Category:Months in the 1900s, as well as the list of all existing month articles at List of months by year. This category currently has 671 pages and the goal is to increase this to 1200 pages, one for every month from January 1900 to December 1999. The months from January 1997 to December 1999 currently reside in Portal space per discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Years/Archive 11#Using archives of Portal:Current events for month articles, but sometime in the future, we can have those be in the article namespace again with more events and references to fill the missing days.

List of important pages and categories for this proposed group
- List of months by year (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- January 1900 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- Category:Months in the 1900s (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) (number of pages in the category: 671)
- List of WikiProjects currently on the talk pages of those articles
- Please invite these and any other similar groups to join the discussion about this proposal. See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory to find similar WikiProjects.
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Time (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Years (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Wikipedia:WikiProject History (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Why do you want to start a new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?
- I want a separate group because there are 671 month pages and WikiProject Time, WikiProject Years, WikiProject Lists, and WikiProject History include lots of articles such as 2014 in Afghanistan that would be irrelevant to this project, so the month articles should be separated out.
Support
[edit]Also, specify whether or not you would join the project.

Discussion
[edit]The scope of this WikiProject is far too limited, consider working within an existing project where you are more likely to find interested editors. Dysklyver 14:29, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
