Coeur d'Alene War, Spokane War, or Palouse War?

The article now titled Coeur d'Alene War was originally titled Spokane-Coeur d'Alene-Paloos War which is a "SYNTH" title; please see name discussion at Talk:Coeur_d'Alene_War#Moved_reversed. We're trying to come up with the "most correct" name for this war, which goes by all three of those names. Input from someone from one of those three nations or familiar with the history of the region would be greatly appreciated.Skookum1 (talk) 18:38, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Discussion to remove the Automatically assessed logic from the WikiProject United States template

Greetings, there is a discussion regarding removal of the logic used to populate Automatically assessed article categories from Template:WikiProject United States. Most of the categories (over 220 Wikipedia wide) were deleted in February 2013 because they were empty. These categories were previously populated by a bot that hasn't run since 2011 and the categories aren't used. Removal of this uneeded/unused logic will greatly reduce the size and complexity of the WikiProject United States template. Any comments or questions are encouraged here. Kumioko (talk) 18:53, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Lest there is any confusion for people who don't speak the same language, the words "logic used to populate Automatically assessed article categories" refer to the feature that was supposed to allow this WikiProject's template to "inherit" class and importance ratings from other WikiProjects. Kumioko says that there are no longer any bots performing the function that formerly copied those ratings. --Orlady (talk) 23:43, 31 August 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Washington/Eastern Washington task force → Wikipedia:WikiProject Inland Northwest task force – Howpper (talk) 07:18, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

I am proposing an expansion of this WikiProject to include North Idaho since the Inland Northwest as a whole has more of a distinct identity than Eastern Washington alone. ~~The task force would also be upgraded to a full Sub-project (like WikiProject Okanagan and WikiProject Seattle)~~. The working title is "Inland Northwest task force". Does anybody have any objections or thoughts on the matter? Howpper (talk) 07:15, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

Why does this need to be a WikiProject? The last comment on this talk page was in 2014. Also, if I'm not mistaken, creating a WikiProject should go through Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals and not by just simply renaming the task force. --Gonnym (talk) 08:39, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

@Gonnym: I will retract my "proposal" to make it into a full WikiProject since this isn't the proper way to do so and it should be done in a separate process. Are there any objections or thoughts on Expanding the task force to cover North Idaho? Howpper (talk) 05:14, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
