Drop by and see the new colour scheme which corresponds the the provincial colours. The assessment department provides quality ratings to articles via the talk page. At the current moment the assessment department combines the communities project with the province on the Canada talk page bannerr. There is a request out to make an assessment table from the parent talk page banner or if a new banner is advised. The challenge has been met! User:CBM figured out the coding necessary! A number of various editors and administrators puttered at applying the code, and it works!! Thank you very much.

• C class assessment is the newest addition for articles which need more TLC before being assessed as B class such as citations or wiki clean up. The article is more useful than a start class article, but isn't quite as rounded as a B class article.

• A class articles will need more than one reviewer for reaching A class article criteria.

What's New?: The new articles are now being identified by a robot, and new members are being invited. At Wikipedia:WikiProject Saskatchewan/New articles for instance is a new list List of company towns. Saskatchewan company towns could be added to this list as well.

There is now discussion to identify such articles via robot similar to Australia's notice board, to enable a better canvassing of deletion tags on articles. Should there also be discussion started for a robot notification of Saskatchewan articles for deletion? A new proposal by Wolterding encompassing Article alerts would identify tagged as well as promoted articles to give a rolling new view of articles moving forwards as well as articles in need of TLC.
