Assessment for WP US

copied from User talk:Agathoclea

I thought that it was a failed project. There have been similar projects in India and Pakistan which were big success. To make this US project successful, we have got to convey the message about the project to members of WP US. Can we make a bot request for it or should we contact a bot operator for it?

Well even if you achieve 30% of tagged articles it will be a success. In fact you will never get to 100% I have tried that with WP:Germany - did a big cleanout - but the articles keep on coming. I have awb access, so I can spam members of the project. But the message has to be practical and needs to include links to relevant tools and pages to watchlist. EG if you get people to watchlist the log pages they get a regular reminder about the project tagging. And the more people you have taking a look at the logs the more vandalism on obscure articles gets caught. Start a subpage with the proposed message and I can add some input and we can ask at the main project page for some input before we spam it out. Waiting a day or two will not hurt.
