Do you have a Wikipedia project in mind that others might be interested in? If you're looking to recruit other Wikipedians, you can list your project here. If you want a page to coordinate your efforts, feel free to create a project subpage off of this one.

# Wikipedia Projects:

  Wikipedia NEWS: An effort to post pointers to newly added interesting articles. The intent is to allow individuals unable to keep up with the deluge (*yay*) of articles posted to Wikipedia, to still keep abreast of important developments and additions. Please help maintain this page.

  Historical anniversaries: A listing of notable births, deaths and events for every date. When writing an article, please link your dates and add items to that day where appropriate.

  Year in Review: A listing of each year, decade and century with important events that occurred for each date. When writing your article, please link your years to that year where appropriate.

  Biographical Listing: An attempt to list, alphabetically, all biographical articles in Wikipedia. If you write an article about a person, please add that person's name to the appropriate section.

  Countries of the world: The CIA? and [US Department of State]? have compiled a lot of information on various countries (available [here] and [here]; when there is no explicit copyright notice on the page you're viewing at their site, this information is in the public domain and so can be used here freely. Unfortunately each agency has missed certain fledgeling or Extinct countries, empires, etc., for example East Timor and Zaire, respectively, and so there are still conspicuous gaps.

  /Project Gutenberg Encyclopedia: Project Gutenberg has the first volumn of an old (1911) public domain encyclopedia online. Several Wikipedians are entering these articles into Wikipedia, but since they are so old, they'll need to be edited and updated. Click here for a list of these articles, and please help update them. For more information, see Britannica Public Domain.
