When is it going to be started?? --Boguslav 17:44, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
Basicly anytime. We already have five users, and perhaps more will come... but let's just wait a little while longer 'till more users come and join. —dima/talk/ 17:51, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
  1. Also, while its good to have a WikiProject, this will likely duplicate the functions of the Ukrainian portal (in some ways), so we should be careful not to do that.. Browsing around portals, I came across the Kent portal, which links the portal and WikiProject together.. and keeps some things specific for portal and some for WikiProject, I would suggest doing that. —dima/talk/ 17:55, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
  2. Another thing, is that there is already a WikiProject Ukrainian subdivisions (although not too active, besides me :), so I think that we can probably somehow incorporate the two WikiProject Ukraine, and Ukraine subdivisions together. What do you guys think? —dima/talk/ 18:02, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
Dima, I like the idea of expansion of the existing project from its narrow scope, rather than reinventing the wheel. Would the members go for it? A nationwide project, rather than one for the geography alone, seems much better to me. Chris 23:23, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
I believe they will go for it. There was a proposal at the project's talk to transform it into a whole-country WikiProject some time ago, and no one besides me responded there, to which I agreed... And if we do that, we can move the current geo-wikiproject to a subpage, like Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Ukraine/Subdivisions, as there is some useful information on that page —dima/talk/ 23:31, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
And there are already six members besides you there, and five more here, let's make this happen! Chris 20:04, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, not all of them are active in the project, but let's start the project page. But as I stated above, we should watch so we won't duplicate the functions of Portal:Ukraine and its subpages... —dima/talk/ 02:54, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Featured Article Candidates.

Is Kiev concidered a featured article candidate? Shouldn't this be included somewhere in the project?...Please enlighten me, I'm new to Misplaced Pages. Bogdan 01:12, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
