[edit] About WikiProject Wine
Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Wine. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please add your name to the list of participants below, see the Open Tasks list, or just dig in and start editing.
This WikiProject aims to compile thorough and accurate information on different vineyards, wineries and varieties of wines, including but not limited to their qualities, origins, and uses.

- EngineerScotty 04:55, 20 August 2006 (UTC). I'm still a beer drinker at heart (beer has the distinct advantage of not costing USD $30--or orders of magnitude more--for a good bottle), but there's a lot of grapes to harvest on this subject. I'll focus mainly on Oregon wine, but probably (definitely) will have lots of suggestions. And since I probably couldn't distinguish a bottle of Grand cru Burgundy from two buck chuck without reading at the bottle :), I'll bring a different (and possibly) skeptical perspective to the party.

Please list deletions, other than AfDs and MfDs in the appropriate section below.
[edit] Articles proposed for merging
Could the category Category:Wineries by country (with 18 countries) include the pages in Category:Wine producers which only has 4 countries, and seems to be a duplicate category as some (all?) are Wineries? Hugo999 (talk) 12:45, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
- Shouldn't that be the other way round? A winery is specific type of wine producer. I wouldn't object to merging both categories into wine producers. ~Amatulić (talk) 23:13, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Articles to translate from other Wikis
[edit] Volunteer translators
- Catalan: User:MIckStephenson - Probably not much call for it, but I could use the practice!
- Danish: User:Nwinther - I don't dabble around too much on danish wikipedia, but I'll gladly chip in when needed.
- French:
- User:Mroconnell - You should send me requests without hesitation and I'll do what I can.
- User:scyrene - I have a degree in French, and will happily translate any articles sent to me. I will have a go at Portuguese and Catalan too (Spanish and Italian at a push), but defer to other users' expertise which no doubt exceeds my own.
- User:Gotox
- User:Tomas_e
- Hungarian: User:Balazs.varadi - Again, might not be of huge interest, but I am ready to pitch in.
- Italian:
- User:LAMM707 - Hope I can be of help.
- User:Ian Spackman - no expert in the language or in the wine, but there are billions of articles to translate and I offer my services as the first of the millions of collaboraters LAMM707 will need! Now you can do me a good turn in advance of those translations. The weekend after next I shall be in the Val Cordera, just north of Lake Como. What should I make absolutely sure of drinking?
- User:alphac Who better than an Italian from Asti could help in adding info to the Italian wines? :-D
- User:Charleenmerced
- User:MIckStephenson - happy to act as backup here
- BodegasAmbite - Willing and eager to translate articles from Spanish into English :)
