[edit] Article alerts
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

[edit] GA Sweeps invitation
This message is being sent to WikiProjects with GAs under their scope. Since August 2007, WikiProject Good Articles has been participating in GA sweeps. The process helps to ensure that articles that have passed a nomination before that date meet the GA criteria. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. Instead of reviewing by topic, editors can consider picking and choosing whichever articles they are interested in.
We are always looking for new members to assist with reviewing the remaining articles, and since this project has GAs under its scope, it would be beneficial if any of its members could review a few articles (perhaps your project's articles). Your project's members are likely to be more knowledgeable about your topic GAs then an outside reviewer. As a result, reviewing your project's articles would improve the quality of the review in ensuring that the article meets your project's concerns on sourcing, content, and guidelines. However, members can also review any other article in the worklist to ensure it meets the GA criteria.
If any members are interested, please visit the GA sweeps page for further details and instructions in initiating a review. If you'd like to join the process, please add your name to the running total page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles from the worklist or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. With ~1,300 articles left to review, we would appreciate any editors that could contribute in helping to uphold the quality of GAs. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

[edit] Valle de Chalco Solidaridad
I'm concerned about the redirect from Valle de Chalco Solidaridad to Xico. I lived in Valle de Chalco for approximately five years, and absolutely NO ONE refers to it as Xico. In fact, if you say you live in Xico, and unless you make it very clear that you live in the part of Valle de Chalco that is known as Xico, most Mexicans will assume you live in the town of Xico in the state of Veracruz. If you refer to the list of municipalities on the website of the Mexican Instituto Nacional de Estadistica y Geografica http://mapserver.inegi.org.mx/mgn2k/?s=geo&c=1223 you will, indeed, see Valle de Chalco listed as the municipality and Xico listed as the municipal seat. We don't have the exact equivalent of municipality and municipal seat, at least not in the U.S. But the closest concept would probably be something like the relationship of township to town. You will also note, in Spanish Wikipedia, that Valle de Chalco Solidaridad has its own article, with no redirect to Xico. I believe this redirect should be removed. By the way, once this error is corrected, I can add a little more information about Valle de Chalco, e.g. how and when it was split off from the municipality of Chalco. P.S. This is my first contribution to Wikipedia. I hope I am doing this correctly. Please let me know if I'm not! Escuincla (talk) 00:54, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
