message: A new Newsletter directory has been created to replace the old, out-of-date one. If your WikiProject and its taskforces have newsletters (even inactive ones), or if you know of a missing newsletter (including from sister projects like WikiSpecies), please include it in the directory! The template can be a bit tricky, so if you need help, just post the newsletter on the template's talk page and someone will add it for you.

message: Pinging all active editors who have registered interest in the project. I think there's a great scope for the project here, if anyone wants to join me and start discussing a to-do list, starting at historical biographies and the current politics of Catalonia could make this project semi-active (or even active) again - I think these may be some of the more popular Catalan-related areas of coverage, and re-activating the project gives editors looking for info/help on these topics a defined area on WP that can support them! Let me know (comment below) if you're still interested in the WikiProject, and we'll take that inactive banner off :) Kingsif (talk) 15:27, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.
We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Hello, if you speak Occitan, or know it well enough to proofread a short excerpt, can you please have a look at this edit at Judaeo-Spanish?  This resulted in the following text, claiming to be in Occitan:Lo judeocastelhan es la lenga parlada pels jusieus sefarditas expulsats d’Espanha en 1492. Es una lenga venent del castelhan que 150 000 personas la parlan dins de comunautats en Israèl, Turquia, èx-Iogoslavia, Grècia, Marròc, Malhòrca, las Americas, entre fòrça autres luòcs.
If you can comment on this text excerpt at Talk:Judaeo-Spanish, or simply make any needed adjustments directly to the article, that would be great. Mathglot (talk) 02:08, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I do not speak or read Occitan, but that is definitely able to be read in Catalan. Which probably helps very little. Occitan is uncommon enough that the only dictionary I can find is from the Catalan government... I'm not sure if anyone here can help or suggest any resources you could find. Kingsif (talk) 02:26, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: , thanks. Yes, I know enough Catalan to be aware of that as well. But that isn't the problem; the problem is whether that is proper Occitan.  The article has the excerpt in Catalan, as well as in seven other languages (see this table). Pinging native speakers Lembeye and Aussie Oc, and fluent speakers Jfblanc and Capsot for assistance. P.S. Kingsif, if you know Asturian, Galician, or Mozarabic, those snippets could use a proofreader as well. Mathglot (talk) 03:11, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

text: I am Occitan speaker from Provençal dialect. I can assure you this is Occitan, Lengadocian dialect ("pels" being merging of "per los", "del" meaning "de lo" typical from Montpelhièr / Montpellier for example where in Provence it would have been "per lei" and "dau").

message: Hello  I've been working on a new home page for this WikiProject over in my draft space, my main goal being to make it all more coherent and lovely. I'm not making any radical changes and will be covering most of the content already on WikiProject Catalan-speaking countries. I'd welcome any feedback you may have down below. The draft is located at User:Bernat Tortajada/sandbox/WP:CATALAN. Bear in mind that it's still a work in progress! Bernat (talk) 22:34, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  New home page for the WikiProject 

message: I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
*John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.)
and turns it into something like
* John Smith "" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
It will work on a variety of links, including those from ,  and .
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

thread_title:  User script to detect unreliable sources 

message: A user has been repeteadly removing content from the article stating that it was bias. He also added other content at first without adding sources but it was from unrelated entities or entities stating the same exact things as SCC, in the end no new content or views. We have maintained a conversation but he insists in that the content he wants to remove is biased. The page is now locked and with the changes reverted prior to his edits until March 28. As I understand it, he is threatening to continue removing that content. Can't someone give some insight? He says that stating in the article that SCC says the same as Spanish nationalists regarding an alleged indoctrination in Catalonia school model is bias. For that sentence a reliable source is used to state that SCC denounces indoctrination into Catalan nationalism in Catalonia's school model  and another reliable source which states that Spanish nationalism attacks the Catalan school model saying that it is being used to foster separatist sentiments . The user says that stating SCC agrees with Spanish nationalists in that regard is bias. 95.17.250.138 (talk) 15:40, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end.

message: Hello, I was reading Andorra's page when I've noticed this statement:
"The Catalan Pyrenees were embryonic of the Catalan language at the end of the 11th century. Andorra was influenced by this language, which was adopted locally decades before it expanded to the rest of the Crown of Aragon" followed by this reference:.
Now, I've briefly read the reference but can't find a direct mention of Andorra actually adopting the language before the rest of the Crown of Aragon, am I missing some lines or does the source actually lack reference? If it is the latter case, does anyone know wheter the the statement is true at all? Thank you!  Sacesss (talk) 09:08, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
