Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Composers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To-do list for Wikipedia:WikiProject Composers:
  1. Bot/AWB run placing project banner on all articles with project categories?
  2. Redefine scope of project?

[edit] Banner due for updating?

The Composers talk page banner is the simplest of the classical music project banners. Unlike the other ones it does not produce a talk page category which can be used to produce a project article count, let alone be used for assessments. Is it time to update it - at least by adding the category function? Best. --Kleinzach 03:44, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Can we also now eliminate the Composers1 alternative banner (see project page) by making it into a redirect? --Kleinzach 02:53, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
As there have ben no objections I've removed Composers1. All articles that had this banner have been converted over to the standard version. --Kleinzach 06:53, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
I've now updated the Composers banner (based on Template:Wagner). This has created a new Category:WikiProject Composers articles. As of today we have 805 articles. (This tech stuff is not my forte so if anyone sees any problems please tell me!) --Kleinzach 05:25, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
I hope you don't mind my stepping in. But it would be really easy to get this project WP:1 compliant. I've done the same thing for WikiProject Ohio and could do it for you guys as well. Even if you decide not to go 1.0 you may be interested in {{WPBannerMeta}} which is very easy to setup. §hep¡Talk to me! 20:17, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
We've had problems with {{WPBannerMeta}} on another project hence I've avoided it here. As for WP:1 compliance. perhaps we can go into that later after the basic bot run? --Kleinzach 08:44, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Sure. Whenever you feel like it. §hep¡Talk to me! 14:12, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bot run to banner articles

At a very rough estimate, less than 20 percent of the articles on composers are now bannered. I propose we do a bot run to banner all articles, starting with Category:Classical composers and its subcats (Category:Ancient music composers, Category:Medieval composers etc.) which contain 4,000+ articles. --Kleinzach 02:21, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
