Colonia del Sacramento

Hello, I've done a major rewrite of Colonia del Sacramento today to expand it beyond stub-class. Please take a look at it and re-assess. JGHowes talk - 17:19, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

I looked at it today and I think there surely are some improvements. I upgraded its class up from stub. I feel like it still needs significant work to go higher. I started some comments on that page. Neagley (talk) 00:42, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Currently, 734 articles are assigned to this project, of which 117, or 15.9%, are flagged for cleanup of some sort. (Data as of 14 July 2008.) Are you interested in finding out more? I am offering to generate cleanup to-do lists on a project or work group level. See User:B. Wolterding/Cleanup listings for details. More than 150 projects and work groups have already subscribed, and adding a subscription for yours is easy - just place the following template on your project page:

Proposal for a 200-WikiProject contest

A proposal has been posted for a contest between all 200 country WikiProjects. We're looking for judges, coordinators, ideas, and feedback.

The Transhumanist 00:39, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I came upon these pages today and did a bit of cleanup, but I'm not sure if they follow Wikipedia naming conventions. momoricks 03:49, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

The above article is being re-assessed as part of the GA Sweeps project The re-assessment has been placed on hold. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass; otherwise it will fail. See Talk:1930 FIFA World Cup for things needing to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:19, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

WikiProject cleanup listing

I have created together with Smallman12q a toolserver tool that shows a weekly-updated list of cleanup categories for WikiProjects, that can be used as a replacement for WolterBot and this WikiProject is among those that are already included (because it is a member of Category:WolterBot cleanup listing subscriptions). See the tool's wiki page, this project's listing in one big table or by categories and the index of WikiProjects. Svick (talk) 20:08, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

cyber warfare

someone, most likely paid by a certain government is editing the articles on CANDOMBE in a very bad way. its...it is some sort of fake appropreiation of culture. it is very dangerous.

are you guys onto this? the article on candombe implies that it is argentine! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.227.158.153 (talk) 09:33, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Step one: take it easy. The only problem I see is that not enough Uruguayans participate in the English Wikipedia. The nature of Wikipedia is such that wrongs can be discussed in an appropriate way (not by throwing around accusations or hinting to conspiracies by governments etc, but by learning the rules and being a "wikipedian", so to say). In this way anyone may correct the mistakes or inaccuracies. But this takes "reliable sources" also called "citations" or "references", which means that everything we write has to be based on some notable book or reliable web-source. The validity or reliability of sources can be disputed, but if there are reliable sources stating different things (one says "Candombe is only Uruguayan" the other "Candombe is also Argentinian", then we here MUST write "Source A claims this, while source B claims that". This is the way here. The more one knows the rules and policies of wikipedia, the more one can correct mistakes in the best possible way. If you do not know how to edit wikipedia properly or correct the mistakes, you may ask for help, but then of cource it depends on who you will find. Hoverfish Talk 11:25, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Uruguayan football

I notice that this project has been pretty quiet of late. Just looking to see if there would be any interest in working on football articles? Category:Uruguay national football team templates has a few templates with red links that probably deserve articles. Any thoughts? Hack (talk) 00:58, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Uruguayan Topics Template: Culture

In the row devoted to Culture there is a link to Sport and next to that Rugby in parenthesis. Why does Rugby have a special link in this template? Football plays a much more prominent role in Uruguayan culture but doesn't have it's own link in this template so why does Rugby?

Note: I have cross-posted the above message on the Template Talk page, but thought I'd place it here where it might get more notice. I will refrain from making any edit because I am not a member of the Uruguayan Wikiproject. --SargentIV (talk) 03:40, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Census 2011

The Census 2011 of the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica has not yet reached its final numbers. The official site of the INE states in its FAQ that "The presentation of the preliminary results will be ready in December 2011. The final results, information, commentaries, projections, Marco Muestral, metadata & microdata, will be posted on the first semester of 2012.": INE FAQ, see question "¿Cuándo van a estar listos los resultados?". Please do not update the population and other censal data until the final results are posted. If projected results are given by local authorities, please post them as such (ie, as official projections of the given authority) separately from the INE data and offer a reference to the posted projections.

Animated flag

I have open a deletion request for File:Banderauruguaya.gif, which has a bogus licence and an earlier source. I have already replaced it with File:Flag of Uruguay.svg at the project pages that used it, so that Commonsdelinker does not leave an ugly wave of red links when it's closed. Something similar should be done at the Wikipedia in Spanish, if anyone wants to prevent that from happening there Cambalachero (talk) 20:31, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

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) 22:48, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject X is live!

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.

Hi P64, this project has very few active editors. I did what I could to help you out in that article. However, Antonio Frasconi should belong also to WP Argentina, WP USA and WP Visual arts. I am sure you can get further help from one of them. Hoverfish Talk 00:34, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Penfold pillar boxes

In 1879 Uruguay imported a batch of cast iron hexagonal pillar boxes from England, almost certainly from Cochrane & Co of Dudley, Worcestershire. It is claimed that there were nine of them and that as many as six survive. Most are painted bright yellow, and they form a minor icon of Uruguayan history. In 1993 Correo Uruguayo commemorated these early post boxes with a set of stamps in various denominations. Wikimedia has no images of either the pillar boxes or the stamps commemorating them. There are photos of these Uruguayan pillar boxes elsewhere online, but all that I have found seem to be copyright "all rights reserved".

Please will a Wikipedian in or visiting Uruguay take photographs of one or more of these pillar boxes and donate them to Wikimedia? And please will any Wikipedian philatelist with any of the stamps commemorating them take photographs and donate them to Wikimedia too? The photos would enhance the articles "Pillar box" and "Postage stamps and postal history of Uruguay".

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Latin America/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Latin American content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 350 articles in just six days. If you would like to see this happening for Latin America, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Latin America, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thankyou.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:22, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

The article Uruguayan punk has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

A vs. an

@PurpleLand and Ser Amantio di Nicolao: Is there a convention on whether to use "a Uruguayan person" or "an Uruguayan person"? I've now been corrected both ways. Wiktionary lists "YOOR-uh-gway" as the first pronunciation for English over the closer-to-original-Spanish pronunciation "OOH-ruh-gway". I could see arguments either way, but we should be consistent. Nick Number (talk) 21:52, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

Whatever y'all decide, I have no objection. I've simply never thought of it as the former, and I don't think I've heard that pronunciation used much at all. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 22:08, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
As the Uruguay article itself prefers the consonant-sound pronunciation, I'm leaning toward "a". But I will defer to members of the project if there's disagreement. Nick Number (talk) 04:08, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
@Nick Number and Ser Amantio di Nicolao: - thanks for asking. The correct way is "a Uruguayan", since Uruguay is pronounced "YOOR-uh-gway". See the Cambridge Dictionary here. Regards, --PurpleLand (talk) 16:41, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.

Portals are being redesigned.

The new design features are being applied to existing portals.

At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.

The discussion about this can be found here.

Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.

Background

On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.

There's an article in the current edition of the Signpost interviewing project members about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.

Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.

So far, 84 editors have joined.

If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.

If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.

Thank you.    — The Transhumanist   07:59, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Request for information on WP1.0 web tool

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you?

Please, I ask you for reading and reviewing the article 2019 Latin American protests, because it was inserted false information, pretending that Uruguay is part of the "Latin American spring". Uruguay shouldn't be there.
I thank you very much for your intervention. I am concerned about the encyclopedic quality and the truthfulness of this article. In my opinion, sadly, facts have not been taken into account (please, see Talk section).
I thank you very much for your intervention to eliminate Uruguay, a country that was improperly included in that article, a country, by the way, not included in the article about the Latin American Spring, and neither in the article of esWikipedia Protestas latinoamericanas 2019-2020. Just because the truth is that Uruguay is not part of that list.
Regards,

Conventions

A significant number of pages use American-English spellings as opposed to the British-English proposed in the Conventions section of the project page. Would it be possible to remove this convention as reconciling these differences would not be feasible considering the handful of members that this project has ---EngineeringEditor (talk) 15:34, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

It's been about a month and a half, I went ahead and removed the sentence on British English standardization from the project's conventions, as rectifying these issues would be difficult if not impossible. --EngineeringEditor (talk) 19:51, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
I wonder why British English was chosen as the standard for Uruguay-related articles. I'm not against it, so do the proposed change if you feel it helps the articles in any way. Onwa (talk) 22:29, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Women in Green's 5th Edit-a-thon

Hello WikiProject Uruguay:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!
