The GA review process was particularly strict and demanding, and a good thing too, because it sets a benchmark for the quality to be targeted for other articles in the project, even if we do not intend to reach GA with them. Furthermore, and probably most important, this particular review clearly demonstrated what can be achieved with teamwork, and it puts the page on a par with biggies such as <a href="/wiki/Manchester" title="Manchester">Manchester</a>, one of the Wikipedia's flagship English settlement articles. Anyone can go ahead and create an article, and some articles have a major contributor, but it would have been impossible for Malvern to have been promoted without the extraordinary collaborative effort of a dedicated few, spread across three continents in very different time zones, and sometimes tripping over each other at all times of the day and night to get the article up to snuff. </p><p><br/> </p> <dl><dt>Recently founded</dt></dl> <p>Since the Worcs project was founded barely seven months ago on 8 June last year, in addition to the creation and maintenance of the project pages themselves. a lot of work has already been done by the Worcs project members, including the creation of stubs for most of the missing settlements in the county, creation and improvement work on Malvern Water, creation and expansion of articles on important schools and one or two biographies in the county, and general repetitive tasks such as keeping spam and vandalism at bay. </p><p><br/> </p> <dl><dt>Experts!</dt></dl> <p>All the members of the project have their own specialised fields of interest of course, such as French wine, schools, Lancashire, the Malverns, cricket, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, busses, castles, waterways, or Spike Milligan. However, they all have a common denominator somewhere that brings them together in Worcestershire.<br/> The Worcestershire project mainly concerns settlements. Perhaps after the success of Malvern, the immediate priority now is to improve the articles that really ought to be the flagships of the project, namely <a href="/wiki/Worcester" class="mw-disambig" title="Worcester">Worcester</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Worcestershire" title="Worcestershire">Worcestershire</a>. These two are, sadly, some of the articles in the worst state. They have been created long ago and expanded over time by a great many shingle-edit authors and IPs. </p><p><br/> </p> <dl><dt>So wotnow? (pun)</dt></dl> <p>A possible suggestion would be to take one of those rather shoddy pages, probably <a href="/wiki/Worcester" class="mw-disambig" title="Worcester">Worcester</a>, the county seat, or the project's eponymous article <a href="/wiki/Worcestershire" title="Worcestershire">Worcestershire</a> and do a Malvern job on it. Such a concerted piece of teamwork might even earn the project another major GA - and we now know it can be done! </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Meet_up" data-mw-thread-id="h-Meet_up"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Meet_up"></span>Meet up<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Meet_up"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Worcestershire/Newsletter&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Meet up"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>An attempt at a meet up failed last year - mainly either because some of the most active members of the project live in other countries, or the timing wasn't quite right.

It's generally agreed that the immediate priority now is to improve the articles that shiould be the flagships of the project, namely <a href="/wiki/Worcester,_England" title="Worcester, England">Worcester</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Worcestershire" title="Worcestershire">Worcestershire</a> which are some of the articles in the worst state. </p> <dl><dt>Meet up</dt></dl> <p>Kudpung has booked his flight from Asia and will be back in Malvern from 1 April for a month, and looks forward to meeting up with as many Wikipedians as possible, especially those who work on the Worcs project. </p> <dl><dt>NEWS</dt></dl> <p>Two major debates are raging on the 'pedia and we have been cautiously taking part. </p> <dl><dt><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BLP" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BLP">WP:BLP</a> (Biography of Living Persons)</dt></dl> <p>In for a shake up is an accumulation of nearly 50,000 totally unsourced articles that may end up on the cutting room floor after a period of grace. As a project, we can help by taking a look at those BLP in the county and doing what we can before the axe falls. </p> <dl><dt>citations</dt></dl> <p>A war almost broke out over citation formats, but a mature approach from Worcs project members prevented any physical injury. There, are only three basic rules for citations: 1. All articles must have them. 2. Consitency of format throughout an articles. 3. Changes to the format require a consensus.<br/> We are not obliged to use citation templates, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:LDR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:LDR">WP:LDR</a> might not be such a good idea while chunks of text and/or their references are being copied and pasted around related articles in the county.

If you think you would be able to cope with all the responsibility adminship involves, checkout <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:RfA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:RfA">WP:RfA</a> and nominate yourself. Nobody needs to have a high edit count or to be an expert in all areas, but being active, having a reasonable overview of the workings of the Wikipedia, and a decent level of maturity, are expected minima.
