Announcements
edit- WikiProject Video Games met one of its major milestones this quarter (at the end of May) by getting 10% of its articles to a quality of C-class or better. Kudos to all editors who helped make that possible! The new milestone goal is to bring 50% of the articles to Start-Class or better. Good luck!
- Samwalton9 has begun an ambitious project to clear the backlog from the WP:VG Request Board. Members wishing to join him in improving the responsiveness of this part of WP:VG can help by locating reliable sources or drafting new articles from those requested.
- Editor's Note: Would also like to note that the WikiProject reached a size of 400 members in the final days of last March since we failed to mention it last quarter's issue.
