Is this a local wikiproject, something related to Wikis Love Monuments, or something else?

A composition of local wikiprojekt and WLM. It started with WLM but now its an collaboration between austrian wikipedians and the austrian "Bundesdenkmalamt" (~federal monuments office) planned for several years. Most of the people of Bundesdenkmalamt are not signed to wikipedia so a mailinglist would be great!

Hmm, I see. Well, here's the situation: local WikiProjects do not get mailing lists (we have a few hundred wikis and a lot of them have quite a few WikiProjects... we couldn't give one to every project and most wouldn't even use it), but large outreach partnerships/projects, especially ones that are chapter-sponsored, usually do get a Wikimedia mailing list.

Do you fit into the second category, the "chapter-sponsored outreach projects/partnerships"? If so, I'll create the list for you, probably something like "WikiDenkmal-AT" or "Monuments-AT" or just "Denkmal-AT" -- let me know which you like best. If you don't fit into that category, a Google Group would probably be better.

Does that make sense? :-) Sorry for the confusing process.

I think we fit the second category, our chapter is involved in many cases and our partnership includes several common projects with high scatter effect... I would prefer "Denkmal-AT". And: no problem, rules are rules ;)

Yes, the second category fits our goals. Denkmal-AT would be really fine

Make mailing list requests (new ML or rename) consistent: based on bug 30105 it looks like caseybrown wants these, add wikibugs to CC
