Wikipedia:WikiProject New Jersey/NJCOTW
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Jersey Collaboration of the Week is a collaborative effort to reduce the number of nonexistant New Jersey articles and to improve the quality of existing articles about New Jersey.
Remember that once something has "won" the vote for nomination, participants then need to commit to do their share of the actual work. In this manner we will be able to make a substantial dent in one of our holes by working collaboratively, sharing both the effort and the ideas that we can each contribute.
 |
The current NJ collaboration of the week is Geography of New Jersey. This is an effort by participants of WikiProject New Jersey to create and improve articles relating to New Jersey. Please help this effort by helping out on Geography of New Jersey. |
Please consider joining the effort; you do not have to be living in New Jersey to help.

Comments:
- Definitely a worthy article for creation. The New Jersey article is weak in describing the geography of New Jersey, and the prose is very weak and unexpansive. AndyZ 14:10, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] United States Congressional Delegations from New Jersey
- Nominated [March 8, 2006]; needs 4 votes by [March 22] (minimum 2 votes per week)
-renominated-
no time limit, as the wikiproject is being revitalized
Support:
Comments:
- For the House: only goes back to the 70th Congress; years are missing from the left column; districts across the top need to be wikified. Compare, e.g., to United States Congressional Delegations from New York
[edit] Kean family, Frelinghuysen family
- Nominated [March 9, 2006]; needs 2 votes by [March 16] (minimum 2 votes per week)
-renominated- no time limit, wikiproject is being revitalized.
Support: Alansohn 04:47, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Comments:
- Famous political families of NJ. If you go to the Frelinghuysen disambig page, you can see the start of an article already. One example of a completed article is Delano family. See here for a list of those public officials who comprise the Kean family, and a good reference start.
