[edit] Standardization

• Moving articles to the proper titles, see Article Naming Standards
• Adding the infobox to articles, especially those using the old subst'd stat sheet (which should no longer be used).

[edit] Adopt an article

Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.

[edit] Article Naming Standards

The article name shall be Ride Name. If the name conflicts with another existing ride, than it shall be called Ride Name (Silver Dollar City).
