[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] Rewrite of List of Washington & Jefferson College people

I am currently rewriting List of Washington & Jefferson College people, and I want to make sure I have a decent table format that would pass FL, if that ever is a possibility. I'd hate to do all the work and then have to re-code the table, so can someone check out my sandbox version at User:Jwilkinsen Jr/sandbox? --Jwilkinsen Jr (talk) 04:57, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Reference question for lists

I'm new to lists, but I'm thinking about bringing List of matrices to FL status. I do have some experience in creating good and featured content, but only with articles, not with lists so far. Is it necessary to give a reference for every row in the list? Jakob.scholbach (talk) 15:28, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] List for deletion
