Need Help Writing & Checking Already Written Summaries

I have been working on Draft:List of attacks on the United States for several weeks, and I have a lot of summaries already written, but still a lot to write. The lead is still incomplete, but it is on the docket to do at the very end (to help clearly define the scope and such). The scope will eventually be any attack or overall campaign (like the Gettysburg campaign) which is against the U.S.. Large scope, I know, but my vision for the article will make it extremely good and extremely useful.

Anyway, if anyone wants to help me write some summaries (1942 to 2025) or do some accuracy and grammatical checks on the already written summaries (1776 to 1941), feel free to help out. I started it in November 2024, so probably only a couple more months of work to do on it to get it ready for mainspace. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 01:55, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

New seal for Drug Enforcement Administration

DEA has announced a new seal for the agency; see DEA Unveils New Seal to Reflect Mission and Renewed Commitment. The current seal shown on the article is located at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Seal_of_the_United_States_Drug_Enforcement_Administration.svg and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Seal_of_the_United_States_Drug_Enforcement_Administration.svg.

I'm not sure what the process is for changing the image, but I wanted to bring this to the project's attention. Thanks. Puzzledvegetable^{Is it teatime already?} 00:42, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

From what I understand, this is a formulaic structure used across US municipality articles. I don't really see the problem with it spelled out like this, given it directly reflects the census data in a consistent fashion across articles. Remsense ‥ 论 07:17, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The states list is messed up

On the list of states, some states are missing and others do not use the flag map format. Please fix!!! FlagNerd1010101 (talk) 21:02, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@FlagNerd1010101 Which article are you talking about? You can list its title. Thanks, JackFromWisconsin (talk | contribs) 04:51, 8 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject:United States, and if you go down, you will see the list of WikiProject states. To recap, some are missing, and others do not have the flag map format. 199.66.15.1 (talk) 04:25, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There's no guarantee that there are enough editors interested enough to run a WikiProject for every state, and each WikiProject is able to choose its own decorative imagery within reasonable bounds. CMD (talk) 07:05, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think there are wikiprojects for each state, they just haven't been listed (ex: the Minnesota WikiProject) FlagNerd1010101 (talk) 01:51, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If they are active, as it seems Minnesota is, perhaps drop a note there and ask if they want to be listed here? CMD (talk) 04:00, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
