Kylie unreleased tracks
as part of this wikipedia project I have tried to do a basic edit on this article and it had turned into an editing war. Can somebody please advise if I have done something incorrect in regards to this thanks Mikey01 08:19, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
- Your edit to the article stating that all these tracks have been released in some form was incorrect (hence the name), but I do agree with your view that the article is full of original research. All songs and commentary listed needs to be backed up by a citation from a reliable source such as ASCAP, etc. -- Underneath-it-All 20:32, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- I'm going to try to go through the article over the next week or so and clean it up a bit, adding sources, etc. Your help would be greatly appreciated. :) -- Underneath-it-All 20:37, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Shame Shame
Wat kind of wikiproject is this. After Kylie Minogue article, the most important article is Cant Get You Out Of My Head...and its not even GA...its was such a successful song..i think her most successful...and that article is decaying...shame!
And "Love At First Sight" is not even covered by this project it seems..or maybe it was "In your Eyes"...any one of them..SHAME! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.239.147.120 (talk) 09:57, 1 May 2008 (UTC) HAHA..guess wat...both are not covered under the project! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.239.147.120 (talk) 10:00, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Changes to the WP:1.0 assessment scheme
As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
- The new C-Class represents articles that are beyond the basic Start-Class, but which need additional references or cleanup to meet the standards for B-Class.
- The criteria for B-Class have been tightened up with the addition of a rubric, and are now more in line with the stricter standards already used at some projects.
- A-Class article reviews will now need more than one person, as described here.
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles.
Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

Wikipedia 0.7 articles have been selected for Kylie Minogue
Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.
We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations.
A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible.
We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks! For the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial team, SelectionBot 23:00, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
Inheritance of importance rating
Is there a way you could modify your talk page banner so that the importance of Kylie Minogue albums isn't given the same importance for WikiProject Albums as for this WikiProject? While all of her albums may be of high importance to this project, they are certainly not highly important albums in any other sense.
This could be fixed either by adding an extra parameter to the template {{WPKylie}}, or by taking out the inheritance altogether and adding the {{album |class= |importance= }} to the album talk pages. — Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 02:36, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Coordinators' working group
Hi! I'd like to draw your attention to the new WikiProject coordinators' working group, an effort to bring both official and unofficial WikiProject coordinators together so that the projects can more easily develop consensus and collaborate. This group has been created after discussion regarding possible changes to the A-Class review system, and that may be one of the first things discussed by interested coordinators.
All designated project coordinators are invited to join this working group. If your project hasn't formally designated any editors as coordinators, but you are someone who regularly deals with coordination tasks in the project, please feel free to join as well. — Delievered by §hepBot (Disable) on behalf of the WikiProject coordinators' working group at 05:48, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
Duplicated articles?
Are the following articles duplicates?
- Kylie's Remix Hits Volume 1 released in March 1989.
- Kylie's Remixes Volume 1 released in March 1989.
Someone more knowledgeable about Kylie's discography needs to sort out which should be deleted.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:39, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

WP 1.0 bot announcement
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects.

Request for comment on Biographies of living people
Hello Wikiproject! Currently there is a discussion which will decide whether wikipedia will delete 49,000 articles about a living person without references, here:
Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Biographies of living people
Since biographies of living people covers so many topics, many wikiproject topics will be effected.
The two opposing positions which have the most support is:
- supports the deletion of unreferenced articles about a living person, User:Jehochman
- opposes the deletion of unreferenced articles about a living person, except in limited circumstances, User:Collect
Comments are welcome. Keep in mind that by default, editor's comments are hidden. Simply press edit next to the section to add your comment.
Please keep in mind that at this point, it seems that editors support deleting unreferenced BLP articles if they are not sourced, so your project may want to source these articles as soon as possible. See the next, message, which may help.
Tools to help your project with unreferenced Biographies of living people
- List of cleanup articles for your project
If you don't already have this and are interested in creating a list of articles which need cleanup for your wikiproject see: Cleanup listings A list of examples is here

Kylie Minogue articles have been selected for the Wikipedia 0.8 release
Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles were selected based on their assessed importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.
We would like to ask you to review the Kylie Minogue articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.
We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!

Navbox Consensus
Ok, We need to decide something. Should we put the single navbox only on the singles as the only navbox and the Kylie Minogue one on the other pages? A lot of articles do this, and I think that it's time we decide it for our articles. I Help, When I Can.[12] 04:50, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

EPs

So called "Promo Singles"
After doing some Kylie work, I have realized what Cprice1000 was talking about. The songs listed as promo singles that are by Kylie are wrongly listed. I haven't gone through all of them yet, but I have realized that a good portion of them were released commercially, meaning they qualify as being full fledged singles. Music videos have nothing to do with it. I will start making the required changes; speak now, or forever hold your peace. I Help, When I Can. [12] 04:50, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- Nevermind. In the end, "I Guess I Like It Like That" and "Secret (Take You Home)" were the only ones who qualified. I Help, When I Can. [12] 05:02, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Since I have failed to receive a reply on this, I have taken it here.
Secret should be considered an official single from Body Language, per definition of a promo single. I have already changed it on the article as well as fixed the chrono for "Slow" and "Red Blooded Woman" but I was wondering if everyone approved. I had left a note on the 'Secret' page for over a month and there was no opposition. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 22:45, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Umm... I love Kylie... but this article doesn't even meet WP:NSONGS as is. I think that that is the bigger issue as of now. You should focus on writing the article and verifying it, then we can deal with that issue. I Help, When I Can.[12] 23:51, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

OK, all I need now really, is a source for the Taiwan charts. Anyone? --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 01:53, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

- First place I looked, nothing :( I think maybe the charts weren't archived. Not even Australia archives their charts, cept for the main chart. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 02:03, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
- They archive their charts, but you will have to get them for a price (same as Billboard Magazine. See if there are any convenient sources. Also, I suggest you find better sources.

Kylie Minogue Main Page
I think the main page needs some reconstructing. For one, I noticed the other day that the information about her cancer is in it's own section. I don't think this is necessary, when there is a "life and career" section. I think that it can be easily put in there. ℥nding·start 03:49, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- I agree, but the version of the article with that as a separate section is the one that got FA, so, I'm unsure. I Help, When I Can. [12] 05:39, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think that would matter that much. The best bet would be merging them. It just makes much more sense, as I stated before. ℥nding·start 04:08, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
Chronology
Me and Cprice1000 also had another conversation and now I see the light on that issue too. From now on (if no one objects, of course) there will no longer be two strands of single chronology for Kylie. And the one strand will be arranged by the earliest release date, no other factors. Objections? I Help, When I Can. [12] 05:11, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- Support from me. No objection :) Novice7 | Talk 05:15, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Uncovered a Kylie Scam
While editing the singles discography page, I encountered something very interesting. It says that Kylie got (Insert so n so certification here) from the ARIA in (any year from 1987-1997). There's only one problem. The ARIA didn't give out certification awards until 1997, which is the reason why I couldn't find certificate records for Kylie, but I didn't put two and two together until now. How in the hell could she win an award that didn't even exist? Just because you get the sales to qualify for certification does not mean you are certified. I will soon take out the references to this. Speak if you have an explanation. I Help, When I Can. [12] 20:48, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- There is a book covering the certifications in Australia, right? That book might have information on this. Novice7 | Talk 03:54, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- I remember reading (I wish I remember where) that it was created in 1997, and then when I went through the article, all the official references started at 1997-; the other ones were fan sites. I'm not even sure if we have to dive into this issue any further. I Help, When I Can. [12] 04:13, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- ARIA does have older certifications, but doesnot cover on their online website. David Kent's book covers them in the charts. — Legolas (talk2me) 09:39, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Issue with "Kids"
Hello everyone. While editing the discography page, I encountered another "error turned knowledge" incident. To sum it up, it's like the Nicki Minaj Pink Friday "Check It Out" issue (look here if you need to be refreshed). Basically, "Kids" was released on Robbie's album. It did good, so it was put on her album. "Kids" was never actually released as a single from Light Years. I looked at a whole bunch of entries "Kids" made into reputable databases including the BPI Certificate Search (Search Kids, first result). They never list Parlophone (her label). Therefore, "Kids" should be delisted as a single from Light Years everywhere, and included with her featured tracks. Objections and discussion? I Help, When I Can. [12] 23:42, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
- Agreed. "Kids" is a Robbie Williams single, released by his label which features Kylie Minogue. Regardless of it appearing on her album only William's label promoted it and thus it is primarily his single. SIngles are often added to their featured artist' albums to boost sales. In Minogue's discog, it should appear under Singles 'As a featured artist'-- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 01:04, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- Duh. I thought that was the case untill I actually checked the articles. "Kids" should only be in the chronology, since it is a Minogue singles as well, but else where in templates, move it to the featured artist sections. — Legolas (talk2me) 09:37, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yes. Absolutely right :) Novice7 | Talk 09:51, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

"Chiggy Wiggy" issues.
Ok, I need a expert on the Indian Singles Chart. The article says that it was a promo single, yet it topped the Indian Singles Chart.
- Need a citation of it reaching the top of the chart.
- Need someone to confirm if promo singles can chart or not.
Need all this info for the discography article. I Help, When I Can. [12] 02:32, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- As far as I know, there are no official singles chart in India (I come from India). And I'm pretty sure the single cover is fanmade. The article has just one reliable source. I think it should be merged with the main soundtrack article. Novice7 | Talk 03:51, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Lack of notability and stubs
The Kylie articles are awful compared to some of her competitors. Now, I don't mean to compete with the Madonna articles or even Britney's, but they can all be vastly improved. Of course, Kylie's page is perfect, but most of her songs and albums are really bad. I'll start work on them today, but I will need much more help to get them to what Kylie deserves. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 20:07, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
- My mission right now are the articles of top importance (discogs, lists of tours, etc.). I understand what you mean, and thats what I am trying to do. That's why I tried to revived the project, and thanks to the help of you, Unique, Novice, and many others, it is succeeding. I Help, When I Can. [12] 23:53, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yes. I mean Fever. It is definitely one of the most important articles, being her most successful album, yet, it is rather small. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 00:21, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
Expanded Can't Get You Out of My Head. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 00:13, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
- And on that note, I want to try and get it to GA. I really think Kylie's most successful song deserves GA status. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 00:19, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
No Hope List
On Cprice's topic (above), that made me think of something. In WPKylie, we need to officially divide the articles that can be improved, and the ones that completely fail WP:N & WP:V. For the ones that fail, I think that we should find out if the limited info can be included elsewhere, or if it is bogus and needs to go straight to WP:AfD. Opinions? I Help, When I Can.

Replacing charts on discography
I think that I should replace the US Dance chart in place of the Norwegian chart in the discography, and the Billboard Hot 100 in additional notes. Why? Kylie has a dance chart entry for 90% of her catalog, while she has 9 songs that charted there, in total. Objections? I Help, When I Can. [12] 00:20, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- I did a mock up of what it would look like here. Well? I Help, When I Can. [12] 02:40, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
I've seen this in many other artist discographies where they were not very successful in the US, but I might prefer that US dance be replaced with US. She has had several, but no more than that, chart entries on the Hot 100 (I also mean including entries on the Bubbling Under as 102, etc.) and it is really a lot more important to her career than a US dance chart entry, which makes up almost no sales at all. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 02:50, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- Well, it is good, but the notes could be moved down to a separate section above References (maybe titled "Notes"). What do you guys say? Also, I was asked to remove the notes on my list, when it was going through a FL process. Novice7 | Talk 06:09, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- Even though she has had songs chart on the US Dance, I don't think it's necessarily needed. I think Cprice has a good idea, but I don't know. I think it's fine the way it is right now. ℥nding·start 12:11, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- Now that I've come to think of it, yeah, Dance chart is not needed. I say we go with Cprice on that. Novice7 | Talk 13:07, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't think I posted this before. WP:USCHART; component charts have been included in some of the most famed featured discographies, including Mariah Carey, Madonna, MIA, Taylor Swift and many more. I Help, When I Can. [12] 23:59, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
- But, I thought a component chart should not be included without a main chart. In that case, we need both US and US Dance? Novice7 | Talk 04:12, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
- ... ... ... I guess. If I find the cites for all of the other charts, I will drop this issue, but if I don't I will switch out and replace with the US charts. I Help, When I Can. [12] 20:49, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

The article Aphrodite (song) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- After checking official/reliable sources, I have found that the song in this article is not being released. This means that it will not chart, failing music notability guidelines.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. I Help, When I Can. [12] 00:26, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

It's OK, but I Guess I Like It Like That is really a promo single: source here. --AmyMirka (talk) 01:30, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Importance Scale
Here is the new importance scale. Learn it. Live it. Love it. Or debate it below.
Importance | Criteria | Example |
---|---|---|
Top | Subject is extremely important, even crucial, to the topic "Kylie Minogue". Think of articles that a "Kylie Minogue Encyclopedia" could not do without. Usually reserved for articles that encompass major Minogue topics. | Kylie Minogue |
High | Subject is extremely notable, but not crucial, to the topic "Kylie Minogue". Importance level is usually saved for albums. | Impossible Princess |
Mid | Subject is somewhat notable. Covers a topic that has a strong but not vital role in the history of Kylie Minogue. Additional, but not crucial, to the topic "Kylie Minogue". Importance level is usually saved for singles. | 2 Hearts |
Low | Subject is not particularly notable and is not required knowledge for a broad understanding of Kylie Minogue. May only be included to cover a specific part of a notable article. Tours are usually included in this importance level, covering aspects of promotion in album articles. | KylieX2008 |
??? | Any article which has not yet been assessed on the importance scale. |

- The notability guideline for music releases is basically it has to have charted on a major country chart, has to have received a lot of buzz, and/or it has to have been covered substantially over the years.

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
WikiProject X is live!
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

WikiConfererence Australia 2015 - Save the date 3-5 October 2015
Our first Australian conference for Wikipedians/Wikimedians will be held 3-5 October 2015. Organised by Wikimedia Australia, there will be a 2-day conference (Saturday 3 October and Sunday 4 October) with an optional 3rd day (Monday 5 October) for specialist topics (unconference discussions, training sessions, etc). The venue is the State Library of Queensland in Brisbane. So put those dates in your diary! Note: Monday is a public holiday is some states but not others. Read about it here: WikiConference Australia 2015
As part of that page, there are now sections for you to:
- indicate your interest in possibly attending the conference (this is not a binding commitment, of course)
- add suggestions for topics to include in the conference: what you would like to hear/discuss (again, there is no commit to you presenting/organising that topic, although it’s great if you are willing to do so), or indicate your enthusiasm for any existing topic on the list by adding a note of support underneath it
It would really help our planning if you could let us know about possible attendance and the kind of topics that would make you want to come. If you don’t want to express your views on-wiki, please email me at kerry.raymond@wikimedia.org.au or committee@wikimedia.org.au
We are hoping to have travel subsidies available to assist active Australasian Wikipedians to attend the conference, although we are not currently in a position to provide details, but be assured we are doing everything we can to make it possible for active Australian Wikipedians to come to the conference. Kerry (talk) 00:19, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- Folks, just letting you know we will not be proceeding with Wikiconference Australia 2015 originally proposed for 3-5 October 2015. Thanks to those of you who expressed your support. You are free to attend the football finals instead :-) Kerry (talk) 08:10, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject
The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.
Portals are being redesigned.
The new design features are being applied to existing portals.
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.
The discussion about this can be found here.
Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.
Background
On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.
Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.
So far, 84 editors have joined.
If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.
If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.
Thank you. — The Transhumanist 07:44, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Publishing sales chart for 'Magic'
Hello, I am new to wikipedia so please excuse me if I don't use this correctly. I would like to suggest adding to the Charts section of the page on Kylie Minogue's single "Magic" (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Magic_(Kylie_Minogue_song)) a column on the Sales Chart. My edit was removed with this explanation: The Sales Chart is a component Chart of the Singles one. Since it already charted there, there's no need to include it. I believe that in the era of streaming, it is significant to show that Kylie's song did chart well in the sales chart (no. 5), an information which cannot be known from her low overall UK singles chart (no. 75 top position).

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.
Message sent by User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome here.
