Capitalization

This article is titled WikiProject, but variously uses that capitalization and "Wikiproject", with the lede suggesting that the former is correct. Usage in sources appears to be mixed. I would think "WikiProject" would be correct, especially since it's so dominant here. And we invented WikiProjects, didn't we? --BDD (talk) 13:54, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Enwiki WikiProject data

I have just removed all the data about the enWP's WikiProjects and their role in article assessment. This article is supposed to be about wikiprojects in general, giving such excessive information about their usage on a specific wiki is just inappropriate. Besides, the data is already duplicated across the articles on Wikipedia and English Wikipedia. 103.6.159.86 (talk) 07:05, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Short description

The

Can wiki save the world?

Could wiki produce a page for collaboration? Just a button people can click to denote support after viewing. People can pitch ideas and see the amount of people who could donate time or fund raise. If this is a feature already then please put the link. I will check tomorrow at same time. Thank you. 67.14.193.70 (talk) 04:40, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Medicine

This article is heavily focused on

WikiProject Medicine. Perhaps there's enough content and sourcing specifically about WikiProject Medicine to justify forking out a separate entry? Thoughts? ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:49, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply

I think so, yeah. Manny Manatee (talk) 17:39, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProjects

How do you find out what wikiprojects there are? Manny Manatee (talk) 17:38, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Manny Manatee You may find Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory helpful. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:41, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request

I suggest adding the following sentence to

medical volunteering.[1]
". I am suggesting this through COI as the reference I suggest is my own work. I believe it is the most recent and relevant work to make this statement.

  Needs discussion  

  • In March 2023, the section covering Wikiproject Medicine was proposed to be forked to its own article. Shortly after this move was completed, a merger discussion then ensued, with the result being the information was placed back into this article. However, the result of that discussion was 2 supports (to merge), 1 delete, and one which prevaricated between support and delete. Figuratively taken this may indicate a tie. IMO, it signals that editor consensus was mixed at best as to whether the section should remain.
  • Seeing the consensus as possibly being mixed gives me pause in adding additional information to a section one editor from the discussion labeled as "naval gazing". To that end, it is requested that the proposing editor here discuss this addition with (at least) the editors involved in the earlier forking and merge discussions, as well as any other local editors who may be interested in this topic, in order to see if this information should be added to the article.
