Membership is open to all who are interested. Topics will cover an array of arts, ethnicities, languages, history, religions, and more. Since we may be here due to a specific passion in a particular art, religion, ethnicity, nationality, or language, we must bear in mind to maintain Wikipedia up to its academic standards.

  • Reddy and Reddy dynasty have historical material that may relate to this project. I don't know enough to be sure of that, but I have been trying to edit the articles since I found Reddy in the backlog of articles for wikifying. Both need work to make them more factual and keep POV stuff out. Please just ignore if they aren't relevant at all.Itsmejudith
  • All articles should have the {{WPDRAVCIV}} banner added to their talk pages and be added to the Wikipedia:WikiProject Dravidian civilizations/Articles page. By doing so editors can
