The Blue Puppy
Coaster, thanks for nesting the tables at Blue's Clues. It just was passed to GA-status! I have a question: do you honestly think that the article fits in the Dogs Category? I mean, my kids and I love Blue (insert barking sound effect here), but I'm sure you know (it's late, forgive my sillyness) that Blue is not a real dog. Now, Steve and Joe--they're real (I think), but not Blue. Let me know what you think. --Figureskatingfan (talk) 07:06, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Articles and Assessment
We hit a milestone in January with our first GA-class article, Speed Monster! This shows just how easy it is improve articles by including references and increasing readability. Collaboration has got off to a good start, with the first chosen article, Arrow Dynamics, improving enough to reach B-class. The following articles reached GA-class or B-class quality during January: |

Article Improvement Drive
This month's Article Improvement Drive: Roller coaster
Why not start at the top?! The main article is already at B class and, with a little help, isn't too far away from GA class. Please see the collaboration page for further information. Any suggestions for March's Article Improvement Drive can be brought up on the talk page, so if there's a particular article you feel could benefit from more input then feel free to suggest it. |

...and finally... Once again, thanks for reading! As always suggestions and offers of help are much appreciated. |

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:WikiProject Dog breed members, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
