message: At the moment I am wondering how many members are active and regularly visiting this page, so therefore I am calling a role. If you wish to continue helping out with this project please put the word here in bold next to your name. Anyone who does not do this will be moved to the inactive members list. Thankyou very much. --Mollsmolyneux 11:13, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Members Role call

message: Would there be much scope for a Dad's Army missing episodes article, akin to Doctor Who missing episodes? The return of two season two episodes a few years ago has brought the issues to widespread attention and an article could explain (if people know enough about the subjects):
*Why all 80 episodes weren't retained on the original broadcast masters
*Why some episodes were never lost
*Why one, and only one, of the colour episodes now only exists in black and white
*How episodes were recovered from overseas (are they all PAL copies?) and elsewhere
*Any problems with the episodes remaining (e.g. edits to the only copies, signficant tape damage, problems that had to be overcome for the DVD releases which appear to have had restoration work done on them)
A lot of this is covered in various places and aluded to in some articles but a single page may be good for this. But before I make an attempt to put a skeleton together what does everyone else think? Timrollpickering 20:38, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I think it is time to translate some of the articles on Dad's Army into other languages. Please if you think this the right way to go then leave your vote below, then if it all adds up I will start creating pages for it.

thread_title: Translation

message: I've just joined today, but am a great fan of Dad's Army. I've added to the David Croft article and also have a book I bought recently, the story of Dads army, which had episode summaries for every episode, which I will attempt to get done at some point (half term and all :)). Is there anywhere where I can put useful links for other members to use?

message: Hello. The WikiProject Council is currently in the process of developing a master directory of the existing WikiProjects to replace and update the existing Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory.  These WikiProjects are of vital importance in helping wikipedia achieve its goal of becoming truly encyclopedic. Please review the following pages: 
*User:Badbilltucker/Culture Directory, 
*User:Badbilltucker/Culture Directory 2, 
*User:Badbilltucker/Philosophy and religion Directory, 
*User:Badbilltucker/Sports Directory, 
*User:Badbilltucker/Geographical Directory, 
*User:Badbilltucker/Geographical Directory/United States, (note: This page will be retitled to more accurately reflect its contents)
*User:Badbilltucker/History and society directory, and
*User:Badbilltucker/Science directory
and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory.
The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. 
It is my hope to have the existing directory replaced by the updated and corrected version of the directory above by November 1. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.

replies: text: Sorry if you tried to update it before, and the corrections were gone. I have now put the new draft in the old directory pages, so the links should work better. My apologies for any confusion this may have caused you. B2T2 00:39, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I think banners are now on every single page that requires it, unless of course the lists I looked at were incomplete. A few minor character pages might not have them either. Please point out to me if I've messed something up. Thanks RHB 00:00, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I went through all the episodes yesterday, all have the dads army template at the bottom of them and the project banner on the talk page. Should actors have the project banner on their talk pages? All TV episode articles have synopsis', so all thats left are plots for the rest. RHB 15:30, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi, sorry, um I don't know really - I suppose if the actors have had pages written because they were in Dad's Army then it is technically part of the project. It's up to you really. Bob talk 12:54, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Excellent Wikiproject! I have noticed there is a contradiction between the facts given in Sergeant Arthur Wilson and Robert Dorning about who were Jimmy Perry's first choices to play Mainwaring and Wilson. I have marked them both as needing citation. William Avery 21:37, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 16:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
