Welcome to WikiProject Ohio!
[edit]
Hi, and welcome to the WikiProject Ohio! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to Ohio.
A few features of the project that you might find helpful:
- The open task box contains most of the project's work. You can add it directly to your user page by including {{Ohiotasks}} on your user page.
- All important discussions take place on our project's main discussion page; you can also watch this page to keep up with discussions.
- The project has some departments, which handle article quality assessment and new page patrolling. These pages have slowed recently and are looking for extra eyes!
- We also have a taskforce on our over 1,000 townships at which can be found at WP:OHTWP.
- You might also be interested in placing our userbox {{User WikiProject OH}} on your user page.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me or any other member of the project, we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around!

Question about WikiProject South Carolina
[edit]Greetings, I noticed in the members list for WikiProject United States you mentioned having an interest in WikiProject South Carolina. I have been watching the WPSC project for a while and it doesn't appear to be very active and I had a proposition for the members to consider. I wanted to ask, do you think that the project would be interested in falling under WikiProject United States to some degree. I am not necessarily talking a full merger unless thats what they want but here is what I mean.
- The project would stay the way it is except for a couple things. I would like to replace {{WikiProject South Carolina}} with {{WikiProject United States}} and add WPSC to the list of Projects supported by WPUS. This would include replacing the WPSC template on the talk pages of the articles with WPUS/South Carolina (if you want to see an examply you camn look at Washington DC).
- I would also add it to the list of Projects supported by WPUS on the main WPUS landing page.
This would do a couple things that I think would benefit both projects.
- It would increase visibility of South Carolina and related articles to a much larger user base
- It would allow WPSC to more easily benefit from the Bots running for WPUS. This includes article alert bot that warns of Articles and Images for deletion or Promotion. This would ensure maximum visibility if an article relating to South Carolina was submitted for deletion or promotion.
- It would allow the South Carolina related articles to fall under the WPUS and South Carolina scope.
- It would somewhat reduce the maintenance required by consolidating the templates
- It would reduce the number of templates visibile on the articles
- In addition to the above, I typically cycle through all the articles in the WPUS scope every month or 2 fixing various things (sections, typos, persondata, categories, etc) and this would allow the South Carolina articles to fall under that much more easily.
Before I go shooting messages to all the members of the project please let me know what thuoghts or ideas you have about this and if the other members would be receptive to this. Thanks in advance. --Kumioko (talk) 16:09, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
New Years Message for WikiProject United States
[edit]With the first of what I hope will be monthly newsletters I again want to welcome you to the project and hope that as we all work together through the year we can expand the project, create missing articles and generally improve the pedia thought mutual cooperation and support. Now that we have a project and a solid pool of willing members I wanted to strike while the iron is hot and solicite help in doing a few things that I believe is a good next step in solidifiing the project. I have outlined a few suggestions where you can help with on the projects talk page. This includes but is not limited too updating Portal:United States, assessing the remaining US related articles that haven't been assessed, eliminating the Unrefernced BLP's and others. If you have other suggestions or are interested in doing other things feel free. I just wanted to offer a few suggestions were additional help is needed. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, comments or suggestions or you can always post something on the projects talk page. If you do not want to recieve a monthly message please put an * before your name on the members page.--Kumioko (talk) 05:08, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

2019 US Banknote Contest
[edit]
|
US Banknote Contest |
|
|---|---|---|
| November-December 2019 | ||
|
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here | ||
