Trying to get WikiProject Amateur Radio back on the air![edit]
Hi, I'm Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) and I'm currently doing my best to resurrect the amateur radio WikiProject. A lot of the articles need some serious work and so I'm trying to organize an article improvement drive in October. If you're interested check out the link to the drive and the project page. Right now everything is in the planning stages, trying to find people interested, articles to focus on, etc. So if you know anyone who would like to help out feel free to invite them! If you no longer interested in this project that's a-ok just remove yourself from the list on the project page and I'll never badger you again. 73! Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 00:05, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping, Dr_vulpes, and I'll help out as much as I can (although I'm busy as a Guild of Copy Editors coordinator). All the best, Miniapolis 22:43, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot, every little bit helps. I was honestly taken aback when I saw how much work some of the articles need. Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 22:58, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, I'm sure it's always hard to revive a WikiProject; you may want to ping WikiProject Radio. All the best, Miniapolis 23:05, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
