    inproject: keyword for search within WP US and its subprojects

    [edit]

    In case you missed it, you can now do searches within wikiprojects.The documentation however isn't currently clear for how to use this within WP United States.

    • If you want to search within the entirety of WP US, use the keyword inproject:"United States"
    • If you want to search within a subproject of WP US, use the keyword inproject:"United States/WikiProject {projectname}"
      • Example: inproject:"United States/WikiProject Louisville" will do searches within WikiProject Louisville

    This was made available in January, but I just discovered it and didn't see it mentioned in this discussion's archives. Enjoy. Stefen 𝕋owers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 00:51, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    WikiProject Nevada

    [edit]

    I noticed that {{WikiProject Nevada}} is marked as an inactive project. Any thoughts on at least making it a subproject of this one, like many of the other states that don't have their own project, and do something that will be similar to, say, {{WikiProject Arkansas}}, where it's a wrapper of the US project banner? Nevada ("NV" and "NV-importance") parameters would have to be added to the US project banner, but I don't know everything else that may be involved to accomplish this. Thanks. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 15:08, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Support, and I think it should be done with other inactive/defunct projects. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:20, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Which way this goes isn't concerning to me, but I'd note there was a message on its talk page last July asking for the NV project to be reactivated. Stefen 𝕋owers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 17:46, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Abner Vance

    [edit]

    Hey I am working on this biography about this man named Draft:Abner Vance, I stumbled upon him when researching the Draft:Hatfield family. Abner Vance might be of interest to y'all because he appears to be the ancestor to JD Vance.


    Right now, I haven't found any sources to confirm this connection yet. But I believe JD Vance did claim to be related to Abner Vance and I have stumbled upon many other sources that stated Abner and his descendants are related to other notable people in American history.

    Would anyone like to work on this biography? Or work on the genealogy of the current Vice President of the United States. CycoMa2 (talk) 15:41, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I know I have commented this before in the past. It’s just I am getting really tired writing all these biographies by myself.
    I literally had to drive to historical societies by myself to get access to many sources for these articles. CycoMa2 (talk) 15:50, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Houses of Representatives

    [edit]

    Just in the past 15 minutes, I've come across at least two separate articles about US state legislators, who were filed in Category:21st-century members of the United States House of Representatives, despite never having served in that body, instead of "21st-century members of [Appropriate State Legislature]".

    If I stumbled across two by pure chance without even actively looking for that, then there are undoubtedly others as well, but since I'm a Canadian who couldn't name more than a small handful of US Representatives if I tried, I'm not the guy who could actively take on the job of finding any others. So is there anybody with more expertise on that subject who'd be willing and able to take on a check to make sure that everybody who's in that category actually belongs there? Thanks.

    There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Elon Musk–Donald Trump feud#Requested move 6 June 2025 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. RodRabelo7 (talk) 10:29, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    As far as I can tell, the (currently semi-active) Indiana wikiproject has been included in WP United States since 2011, yet {{WikiProject Indiana}} hasn't been deprecated like other WP US-included state banners. Also, the front page of the wikiproject directs editors to use the {{WikiProject United States}} banner while its Assessments page shows the old banner. I would proceed with correcting these things, but I wanted to post here first to see if I was missing something. Is this project permitted to use either banner for some reason, or was as I suspect, the transition to WP US not ever fully completed? Stefen 𝕋owers among the rest!
