Community bulletin board

This section is transcluded from Misplaced Pages:Community bulletin board. (edit | history)
How to add to the community bulletin board
The community bulletin board has 2 sections that can be used by Wikipedians for announcements: "Events and projects" and "WikiProject notices". In general, keep it concise (under 2 lines), refrain from fancy formatting, and new entries should be placed at the top of their section.
  • Before editing, make sure you are on Misplaced Pages:Community bulletin board, not Misplaced Pages:Community portal, where the board is transcluded.
  • Events and projects: In this section, only organized events, projects, and/or competitions should be listed. These are organized by how often they occur:
    • The Yearly section is for uncommon events, like events that only occur every year, once, or irregularly. The Monthly section is for events that occur each month, or are always ongoing.
  • WikiProject notices: In this section, any announcement, request for help or other notice from a WikiProject should be listed here.
    • Entries should be signed, and ordered from newest to oldest.
    • Entries are to be removed after a period of 6 months.

Welcome to the community bulletin board, which is a page used for announcements from WikiProjects and other groups. Included here are coordinated efforts, events, projects, and other general announcements.
