== US Mountain West online meeting November 14 ==
== Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad GA Sweeps: On Hold ==


<!-- Wikimedia US Mountain West online meeting 08/08/2023 -->
I have reviewed [[Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad]] for GA Sweeps to determine if it still qualifies as a Good Article. In reviewing the article I have found several issues, which I have detailed '''[[Talk:Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad/GA1|here]]'''. Since the article falls under the scope of this project, I figured you would be interested in contributing to further improve the article. Please comment there to help the article maintain its GA status. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Hello! This WikiProject aligns closely with the work of the '''GLAM-Wiki initiative''' ('''G'''alleries, '''L'''ibraries, '''A'''rchives, and '''M'''useums), a global community of volunteers who assist cultural institutions with sharing resources with Wikimedia. '''[[wp:GLAM/US|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!

[[File:1rightarrow.png|15px]]'''Are you interested in helping with current or future GLAM projects? Join→ [[Wikipedia:GLAM/US/Connect#Online Volunteers|Online Volunteers]]'''<br>

* I am planning on bringing [[List of municipalities in Wyoming]] to featured list status. I've completed the table, but I am wondering if anybody knows more than I do about the legal frameworks of municipalities (incorporation details, local government powers, etc..). If anybody is willing to help beef up the lead with that content, I believe the list can be nominated for featured list. Thanks in advance.

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.

Portals are being redesigned.

The new design features are being applied to existing portals.


{| style="float:right;margin:0 0 0 2em;padding=0;"
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{tl|Transclude lead excerpt}}.

Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Portals#Specific_portal_maintainers|here]]''', noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.

On April 8th, 2018, an [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/RfC: Ending the system of portals|RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace]]. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.
