Hello! This WikiProject aligns closely with the work of the GLAM-Wiki initiative (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums), a global community of volunteers who assist cultural institutions with sharing resources with Wikimedia. GLAM-Wiki US is a new community initiative focused on organizing cultural collaborations within the United States. GLAM organizations are diverse and span numerous topics, from libraries and art museums to science centers and historic sites. We currently have a backlog of interested institutions- and we need your help!

Are you interested in helping with current or future GLAM projects? Join→ Online Volunteers

We hope you'll join the growing GLAM-Wiki community in the US. Thank you!

United Negro College Fund?

The United Negro College Fund was tagged as of interest to WikiProject Virginia. The only apparent connection between the UNCF and Virginia is that Virginia Union University is a UNCF member institution. This seemed very tenuous, so I removed the tag. Please feel free to revert me if I've overlooked something. If so, it may be a good idea to expand the article to include the Virginia connection to avoid future confusion. --BDD (talk) 20:05, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Weird. I think the article was added to WPVA because it's in Category:Fairfax County, Virginia, but I can't tell why it would be in that category. It's clearly located in Washington DC. Without more, I think you were right to remove it from the project.--Mojo Hand (talk) 02:11, 5 March 2015 (UTC)
BDD, from 1994 until recently the UNCF was headquartered in Fairfax County. The organization moved to the Shaw neighborhood in Washington, D.C. I agree, the project tag should be removed since the UNCF no longer calls Virginia home. APK whisper in my ear 18:17, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

"Spanish-Indian Wars"

The article on Blacksburg, Virginia mentions "the Spanish-Indian Wars" in connection with its early history. There is no such article in WP and hardly any occurrence of the phrase in article text or on the Web at large. I've described the problem on the Talk page, which is the appropriate place for discussion. To discuss this, please {{Ping}} me. --Thnidu (talk) 04:04, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
