Hello WikiProject North Carolina members! A few of us at the The Newsroom Team decided to get together and re-energize the project, through these newsletters. This newsletter is hopefully the first of many to come. We want this project to be active in creating and expanding articles related to our state. If you're a current or former resident of the state, we hope that you will help spread the knowledge of how much there is to learn about North Carolina.
A great way to expand new articles is by keeping track of the new articles list. Please add any new NC-related articles or older ones you come across that have not been tagged with the project banner. When you notice an article has been added to the list, read over it and check for citations, grammatical errors, and spelling. If you've written a NC-related article in the past 5 days, read the requirements for Did you know... and add your article to the DYK nomination list. It might be chosen for the Main Page!
If you see a new member added to the project list, a great idea would be to leave them a welcome message on their talk page. Show them we notice new members and that we want them to become active participants.
If you have any questions in regards to the project, feel free to contact someone from The Newsroom Team. Thanks for all of your hard work and happy editing!
Thanks for your recent edits to the above article! Since creating that article in December, I've tried to constantly improve its content, but I'm a terrible copy editor, especially for my own material (I see the forest and forget that it's made of trees with that stuff). Any help you can lend is appreciated. Since I see youre in WP:MILHIST, I'd like to invite you to comment on my current A-class review at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Fort Dobbs (North Carolina). My goal is to go for FAC if I can get it past A-class intact. Also, I see that you, like me, are an NC attorney -- it's nice to meet a fellow member of the bar on here. Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you, too. Thanks for doing the Fort Dobbs piece. The French and Indian War is an underappreciated part of American history, and I had no idea about the NC connection.Johnboddie (talk) 15:12, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
