A key part of having an active, effective group is increasing the member size. Here's some information on inviting members.
The entire member list can be found here.
How to find users to invite
[edit]- Look for members who have contributed to European history-related topics.
- Check the history log to see what sort of contributions users have made.
- Go to talk pages. Users who comment on talk pages are more likely to be significant contributors. You can confirm this by checking their list of contributions.
- Browse similar projects, notice boards, and portals. Examples include WP:MILHIST and WikiProject Russian History.
How to invite
[edit]Once you've found the member you wish to invite, add the following tag to his or her talk page.
It will look like this:
 | You have been invited to join the WikiProject European history, a collaborative effort focused on improving Wikipedia's coverage of the history of Europe. If you'd like to join, just add your name to the member list. Thanks for reading! |
It's best to add a personal note, such as mentioning an article he or she has contributed to significantly. Make sure you sign your name at the end (~~~~).
Remember to sign this as well.
Good luck!
