Project:Wikiproject verify is a link to this article. The "Project:" namespace has been replaced by DwarfFortressWiki, so I don't think we need "wikiproject" in the page name.
Am I alone in this? Anyone else agree?

Well, on wikipedia, the Project: namespace is replaced with Wikipedia:, and there are lots of "Wikipedia:Wikiproject something" pages - though those are usually more related to subject areas (so for example if we had a group for maintaining all creature articles, or all skills/labors, or the FAQ) than something like this. I do agree that this shouldn't be "Wikiproject", but not for the same reason - more that it doesn't line up with what I think of a wikiproject as being than due to a problem with the term itself Random832 10:57, 11 December 2008 (EST)

Oh, ok. I didn't know that.
Still, it does seem simpler to name this Project:Verify instead of Project:Wikiproject verify. --Savok 15:16, 11 December 2008 (EST)
