Balkan Latinity WikiProject

Hello, I've been thinking for a while of an idea for a new and certainly needed WikiProject. The Aromanians/Vlachs, Megleno-Romanians/Meglenites and Istro-Romanians/Ćiribirci are poorly known peoples in the Balkans, the only ones that are Romance-speaking apart of the Romanians. Tagging pages related to these with WikiProject templates can turn problematic, see this talk page for example [1], saturated with 7 different templates. I was thus thinking that giving them their own WikiProject could increase organization on Wikipedia about info on these peoples and increase their representation in the project, perhaps even attracting members of these groups into working at Wikipedia. The project could be split into three task forces for each of the three.

If you're interested, please ping me here or message me on my talk page. Expressing your interest in the existence of such a project is enough, you will not be compromised or pressured into working in a topic area you might lose interest to soon. After (if) I recruit enough support, I will start a formal proposal and ping you there. Regards, Super Ψ Dro 20:51, 27 May 2022 (UTC)

@Super DromaeosaurusI'm still brand new at attempting to edit anything here, but I'm happy to help if I can. I can help with cleaning up some of the Greek language pages, so they're to the standard you'd expect to see on Wikipedia and not "my papou forgot what century it was & is ranting at the wall" Vialitsa (talk) 11:16, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Vialitsa, any help is welcome. For now, you can support this project by voting for its creation here [2]. Once it is created it will be easier to give more aims and directions to members of the project. Super Ψ Dro 11:22, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Oh perfect, I'm getting up to speed with the contributor standards & how to navigate! Vialitsa (talk) 12:36, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Thought on categories Eastern Orthodoxy /Far-right/ Iron guard

Currently [Category:Iron Guard] is treated as a subset of [Category:Eastern Orthodoxy and far-right politics]. This maybe somehow confusing when dealing with the odd Catholic member of the Iron Guard... I would have maybe created [Category:Romanian Orthodox Church and Iron Guard] as an intersection of two distinct sets: [Category:Iron Guard] and [Category:Eastern Orthodoxy and far-right politics]. It's not that big a deal... just a thought... Plinul cel tanar (talk) 08:00, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Could be a bit excessive and specific in my opinion. I think a better option could be to also include a Catholic and far-right politics category if there is any. Super Ψ Dro 16:27, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

It might be too specific, granted... On the other hand the the category would have a main article (Relationship between the Romanian Orthodox Church and the Iron Guard) and, potentially, on the long term, dozens of articles given the huge number of clergymen to have been active in the organization. As wikipedia taxonomy stands now, any [Iron Guard] article is automatically in a subset of [Eastern Orthodoxy and far-right politics] including the one about the Greek-Catholic Ion Gavrilă Ogoranu.

Radu Dan Constantinescu

Radu Dan Constantinescu was created for pay. It seems like the topic is non-notable, but I think it would be better if someone could check local sources, including offline work and clean-up it a bit. Thank you. 74.15.64.107 (talk) 23:01, 19 January 2023 (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.
