Hi For your info here is the actual text per the Commission


Todesfälle interpretiert werden, die in bisher vorliegenden Detailuntersuchungen genannte Größe liegt zwischen 15.000 und – maximal – 30.000 Todesfällen.

Diese Zahl wird auch durch die tschechoslowakischen Statistiken für die Jahre 1945 und 1946 bestätigt, die insgesamt 22.247 Todesfälle durch „Gewalt, Fremdeinwirkung und aus ungeklärter Ursache“ sowie Selbstmord (6.667) ausweist.
Dem nähert sich die in den genannten Suchkarteien addierte Zahl von nachweislich 18.889 Todesfällen, in der 3.411 nachgewiesene Selbstmorde enthalten sind. Selbst wenn man annimmt, daß die Datenüberlieferung Lücken aufweisen könnte, gelangt man durch eine Verdoppelung der Mindestzahl zu einer maximalen Anzahl von 30.000 Opfern

''The Right Stuff'' caught up with ], the recently elected Lead Coordinator of ]. MILHIST is considered by many to be one of the most successful projects in the English Misplaced Pages.

'''Q: Tell us a little about yourself.'''<br>
'''A''': I'm Dan, a Wikipedian since 2007, from North Carolina. I started out with an interest in history, robotics, style guidelines, and copyediting. These days, I'm the lead coordinator for the Military History Project and a reviewer of Featured Article Candidates. I've been an administrator and maintained ], a summary of policy changes, since 2008.

'''Q: What is your experience with WikiProjects?'''<br>
'''A''': I guess I'm most familiar with ] and ], and I'm trying to get up to speed at ]. I've probably talked with members of most of the wikiprojects at one time or another.

'''Q: What makes a WikiProject successful?'''<br>
'''A''': A lot of occasional contributors who think of the project as fun rather than work, a fair number of people willing to write or review articles, a small core of like-minded people who are dedicated to building and maintaining the project, and access to at least a few people who are familiar with reviewing standards and with Misplaced Pages policies and guidelines.

'''Q: Do you have any tips for increasing membership?'''<br>
'''A''': Aim for a consistent, helpful and professional image. Let people know what the project is doing and what they could be doing, but don't push.

If you've got a core group interested in building a wikiproject, it helps if they do more listening than talking at first ... find out what people are trying to do, and offer them help with whatever it is.

On October 7, WikiProject Conservatism was ] by member ]. He based his rationale on what he described as an undefinable scope, stating that the project is "at its root undesirable". Of the 40 participants in the discussion, some agreed that the scope was problematic; however, they felt it did not justify deletion of the project. A number of participants suggested moving the project to "WikiProject American conservatism". The overwhelming sentiment was expressed by ] who wrote: "A project is a group of people. This particular group does great work in their topic area why prevent them from doing this" In the end there was negligible opposition to the project and the result of the discussion was "Keep". The proceedings of the deletion discussion were picked up by '']'', calling the unfolding drama "the first MfD of its kind". ''The Signpost'' observed that attempting to delete an active project was unprecedented. The story itself became a source of controversy which played out at the ] section, and also at the {{Plainlink|url=http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=User_talk%3AJorgenev&action=historysubmit&diff=456469755&oldid=456159509|name=author's talk page}}.

Two days after the project was nominated, the ] was also ] as "too US-biased". There was no support for deletion amongst the 10 participants, with one suggestion to rename the portal.

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}. I am currently conducting a study on the dispute resolution processes on the English Misplaced Pages, in the hope that the results will help improve these processes in the future. Whether you have used dispute resolution a little or a lot, now we need to know about your experience. The survey takes around five minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released.
'''Please click to participate.'''<br>
Many thanks in advance for your comments and thoughts.

Hi - Noticed you had done a little fixing of vandalism in ] back in October. However, it turns out there was a lot more vandalism which hasn't been fixed until now - I just made changes to revert most of the October 4th vandal's work. When you see something out of place in an article, it's good to look at the history of the article and figure out when the last "good" edit of the article was so that all the vandalism can be removed at once before later constructive edits are made. At this point I think the article is in ok shape.--] (]) 21:26, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
