Step 3: Expand stub articles.
Step 4: Do minor edits and improvements to all articles.
Step 5: Try to get all articles to Featured status.

[edit] Policy

Here are some very broad project policy we should try to maintain:

  • Everyone is welcome to voice their opinion without being put down.
  • Everyone is welcome to edit any of the WikiProjects pages. This is Wikipedia afterall.
  • If you are viewing/editing an article regarding a subject that's dear to you please maintain a neutral point of view and do not get upset if the article provides popular criticism of the subject.
  • Similar as above, please try to follow wikipedian policy. Wikipedian Help has many pages to help you understand rights from wrongs.
