Wikipedia talk:Collaborations

message: I have some concerns with creating overviews for each collaboration project.
#Large overlap with the collaborations template.
#The constant birth and death of collaborations would require near-constant editing and re-editing of this page.
#No other top-level overview page does this.  The page on WikiProjects doesn't attempt to overview every wikiproject--it would be a logistical nightmare.
#Doesn't add much to the wikipedian's experience: the name of the collaboration is usually enough to pique one's interest.
#Overloads this page's length, TOC, and general usefulness.  I think we should remain on-point with the most useful information about collaborations in general, and about setting up new collaborations.
*Understandable, it was just stated in the project page that the page was supposed to have that. It wouldn't require constant updating though, just the new collabs when this done.(Idea is to have inactive ,and active). Anyway, I'll go either way with this but for now I removed the text in the article refering to the overviews. Falphin 22:40, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

message: We could do with a lot of help from the numismatists on the board with improving the articles in this project, especially with photos. I can't provide photos, as I have to borrow a computer, which does not have a scanner or a digital camera attached. If you are a coin dealer, we'd like your assistance with catalogue references. - (Aidan Work 01:36, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Was just looking at the Collaboration templates' sections, and have no idea where WP:LGBT's Collaboration would go. Anyone know? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 18:55, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

message: To facilitate throughput to GA and FA, I'm trialling this; I've listed Standing Lists of large articles with substantial content which may be within striking distance of GA with varying amounts of work WRT formatting and copyediting. Some are already being worked on but I'm seeing if this increases collaboration. So far I've done this on WP mammals talk page and WP Birds collab pages. Be interesting to see if more of these come through cheers,  Cas Liber | talk  |  contribs 01:31, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Some editors have suggested that the collaboration template should not appear on the article page.  They have raised the matter at Wikipedia talk:Australian Collaboration of the Fortnight#ACOTF template  and also at Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Wikipedia:Australian Collaboration of the Fortnight .  At WP:ANI it was suggested that the issue be escalated more generally and it should not consider only the Australian collaboration but collaboration projects in general.  I note the issue was discussed above on this page  (Wikipedia talk:Collaborations#Where should the collaboration template go? butthe project page states at Wikipedia:Collaborations#Templates at the time of my writing this  General practice is to have the template marking the current collaboration at the top of the article in question while leaving the candidacy templates on the talk page. --Matilda talk 00:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This RfC should go at Wikipedia talk:Template namespace#Usage which is the guidline for template usage - it would overule the consensus of this page. Ryan Postlethwaite 01:00, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: RfC: Should the collaboration template appear on the article page

message: The conversation seems to have died down, so I have updated the page here in a manner I believe to be consistent with the decision:  The wording is not quite the same, as that wording doesn't fit here. --Scott Davis Talk 12:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
