This week's cleanup: Demographics of Dallas, Texas. Article rotates in 1:9:1 at 24:00 14 December 2006 (UST).




Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to the city of Dallas in the U.S. state of Texas.

This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

  • Add {{WikiProject Dallas|class=|importance=|subproject=}} (plus grading) to all articles in Category:Dallas, Texas
    • Added 13 drumguy8800 C T 04:43, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Gotten to like 80-something.. with comments. There are a bunch of templates rendering poorly at Dallas stubs because of an error in implementation.. the template calls read |class=stub instead of |class=Stub. Trying to fix them all. drumguy8800 C T 12:26, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
    • We have over 200 articles now! Similar projects have upwards of 1000.. we have a ways to go :D. (I think their project scope is much larger though.. as in metropolitan areas instead of singular cities. The discussion on whether or not WP Dallas should expand its "borders" is located here.

  • Most articles in Category:Dallas, Texas need to be placed into more specific categories or more specific categories need to be made for them. For instance, if an article about a neighborhood has [[Category:Dallas, Texas]] at the bottom, you should replace it with [[Category:Dallas, Texas neighborhoods]].
  • An attempt at creating a very well organized list for List of neighborhoods in Dallas, Texas is currently being worked on at List of neighborhoods in Dallas, Texas/sandbox. If you'd like to go there and work on it or improve the {{Neighborhood list}} (which currently is a hardly modified copy of {{Episode list}}), the help would be greatly appreciated!
  • Check the education subproject for a list of school articles that need improving and a set of detailed instructions on how to improve them.
  • See Category:Dallas articles needing expert attention.
