;Other areas where you can help
*'''Assessment requests''': Some open '''[[WP:GER/A#Requests for assessment|Requests for assessment]]''' need to be answered. To see new assessment requests as they come in, you can '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Germany/Assessment&action=watch watchlist]''' the assessment page.
*'''More task forces and subprojects''': As this WikiProject covers a very large topic area, it is helpful to add more task forces that focus on specific aspects of Germany. Currently, we have a [[WP:GER/MZ|Mainz task force]], a [[WP:MUC|Munich subproject]] and some joint task forces with other WikiProjects. Any project member is invited to start a new task force. Suggestions for possible topics:
**Transportation in Germany
**German politics (the political system of Germany and the biographies of its politicians)
**German Democratic Republic
Be creative! If you have an idea, just suggest it on the [[WT:GER|project talk page]] (don't forget to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Germany&action=watch watchlist it]).
*'''Categorization''': Uncategorized Germany stubs need to be '''[[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Germany#An_invitation_to_categorize_uncategorized_Germany-related_stubs|categorized]]'''

;Project news
*'''Criteria for B-Class status''': The '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Germany/Assessment|assessment criteria]]''' for B-Class have been changed. {{[[Template:WikiProject Germany|WikiProject Germany]]}} template now has 5 switches, <tt>B-Class-1</tt> through <tt>B-Class-5</tt> that correspond to 5 easily checked criteria that an article should meet to be assessed as B-Class. The advantage of this system is that now there is a clear boundary between Start-Class and B-Class articles. Authors of articles that were assessed as Start-Class now get more direct feedback what they should improve to attain a B-Class rating.
 
All of our [[:Category:B-class Germany articles|B-Class]], [[:Category:Start-class Germany articles|Start-Class]] and [[:Category:Stub-class Germany articles|Stub-Class articles]] now need to be checked whether they meet any of the B-Class criteria. This is a major effort, and we need your help! If you want to help, but don't know how, please post at the [[WT:GER|project talkpage]].
*'''Cities and municipalities task force'''
A '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Germany/Cities|task force]]''' dedicated to creating and improving articles on all German cities and municipalities has been started and is looking for help.
