[edit] Wales-related stub markers (templates)

Consider tagging very short Wales-related articles, with a designated stub tag. For general Wales stubs, write this {{Wales-stub}} at the bottom of the article. (All such articles are listed in Cat:Wales stubs)

Note that for some areas of Wales like Pembrokeshire there are subcategories which should be used instead.

[edit] Wales-related WikiProjects

[edit] New Proposed Wales Project

There is now a new proposed WikiProject to deal explicitly and exclusively with Wales at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals#Wales. Anyone who would be interested in joining should indicate as much there, to let people know whether there is enough interest in such a project to formally create it. Thank you for your attention.
