Issue XII - February 2007

Project news

The new consolidated review department—combining the existing project peer review and A-Class review with a listing of project articles undergoing various external featured content candidacies and reviews—is now operational.
Two new templates have been introduced:
- {{Infobox Firearm Cartridge}}, a primary infobox for use with firearm cartridges and artillery shells.
- {{Command structure}}, an auxiliary infobox designed for use with {{Infobox Military Unit}}.
An effort is being made to have task forces maintain annotated bibliographies for their topic areas; several task forces have already begun to construct them.
The project reached two important milestones this month: 500 active members and 30,000 articles in the assessment system.
A military version of Wikipe-tan has been created; a new userbox featuring one of the images is available for interested project members.

The third project coordinator elections have now concluded. Seven coordinators have been selected to serve for the next six months:

Current proposals and discussions

{{Infobox National Military}} is being developed to replace the old {{Military}} template; comments on the draft version are welcome.
A proposal to introduce a category tree for military campaigns, as well as a number of associated classification guidelines, is being discussed; comments would be very appreciated.
