Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities/Outreach/Newsletter April 2008

The WikiProject Universities Newsletter
Issue VIII (April 2008)

After years of work, there are no longer any unassessed university articles!! Try to keep it this way by always assessing an article when you add the {{WikiProject Universities}} template.
New university-related WikiProjects have been created: WikiProject Brigham Young University & WikiProject University of Pittsburgh.
The bot that normally updates our new cleanup lists is currently down.

A number of discussions are taking place on the project talk page. Come and participate!
A growing number of students' union articles are being nominated for deletion and the discussions are being listed on our deletion page.
A new discussion on the notability of separate articles for faculties/academic colleges.

Wrad was awarded the University Barnstar for creating WikiProject BYU. Keep up the great work!
Mlaffs was awarded the University Barnstar for being the first person in almost two years to completely update the Missing Colleges and Universities encyclopedia list. Thank you, thank you!
ElKevbo was awarded the University Barnstar for significantly improving several university-related articles. Thanks!
