[edit] Participants Participants

Dear Participants: It is time to start working on the Wikipedia Project Colombia. But this time it has to be for real. There are still many articles that need to be created and articles that need to be improved. Also it could be a good idea to link articles to the spanish version of wikipedia. As of now there are different aspects of the project that need to be addressed.

  1. We have to priorytize the different aspects that can be written about.
  2. The Portal needs to be improved.
  3. All participants that can spend quality time on the project are encouraged to find better pictures.
  4. It is difficult to find wikipedians that can fully speak english and that can provide information about Colombia, therefore it will be good if we can link good wikipedians from the spanish wikipedia.

It will help us determine which articles deserve and require the most attention from our members. (Don't know how to assess?)
  • Improve articles on the worklist to get more GA and A class articles.
  • Please gather information related to Colombia and create new stubs
  • Help standarize articles related to geo categories. For instance all the colombian rivers, mountains and cities articles should look the same. There are WikiProjects related to these so abide by their guidelines for now. help them categorize
  • {{WPBiography}}
  • {{mountain}}
  • {{river}}
  • {{WPCities}}
  • {{WikiProject Universities}}
  • {{Ethnic groups}}
  • {{WikiProject Beauty Pageants}} (el pais de los reinados)
  • Every single information related to Colombia is valuable, please try making it as acurate as possible.

  • Translate articles from the spanish version with appropiate citations and references.
