This page is undergoing a redesign following the consensus reached at WP:GEOBOT - the pages linked below are likely to be removed and replaced per the new procedures and sourcing requirements. It is recommended that you do not continue to edit these subpages, but begin contributing to discussion at the draft page for the new project/task force at User:John_Carter/GEOBOT_group.
This is the topmost page in the project to complete Wikipedia's coverage of populated places. A bot, User:FritzpollBot has been programmed to extract data from publically available/public domain sources and list it in the following format:
[[English name (article Title)]],original name,district, (district 2(optional),), country, longitude, latitude
The lists need human attention before being turned into articles. Navigate to a country using the links below, where there are further instructions.
Please consider tackling a page or a section and once the blue links have been dabbed or checked please leave a 
Done {{done}} at the top of the page or section that has been checked. If you come across places which have the same name within each province or district, please list them at Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Places/Problematic naming. Thankyou
(see also User:Fritzpoll/Geo categorical assessments) for categorical infrastructural changes that will prepare for these new articles.
See also Provincial templates by country for developments of subsivisional templates by country intended to connect many of these articles by district or province together.

[edit] Updates
- Processing is ongoing, and more links will appear as they are uploaded. The process will sort out Asia first, followed by Africa. Discussion will decide what needs to be done after that Fritzpoll (talk) 13:23, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- The rest of Cambodia, and more small countries will be added this evening (UTC). Currently bypassing china until I have put enough here for people to get on with, as China is particularly large! Fritzpoll (talk) 12:04, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
