Every week an Indian Collaboration of the Week will be picked using this page. The goal of each collaboration is to take an undeveloped or underdeveloped India-related topic and improve it over the course of the week, ideally to the level of a featured article. At the end of each week, the topic with the most support votes will be selected for collaboration.
The over-arching aim of this project is to improve Wikipedia's content about India and also to give users a focus and an opportunity to collaboratively edit content and to give us all something to be proud of.
The current collaboration of the week is Air India.

[edit] How it works:
Any registered wikipedian can nominate an article and can vote for the nominated articles. Voting also indicates interest in contributing during the weekly collaboration cycle. Every Sunday, the votes are tallied, and the winner will be promoted for a week to potential contributors.
[edit] Nomination criteria
- Please nominate only one article at a time.
- Please only nominate India-related articles that you feel need improvement. If articles close to FA-status need improvement, please request a peer review at the India WikiProject.
- Please ensure that the article exists atleast as a stub. If you are making a request for a non-existent article, please do it at Wikipedia:Notice board for India-related topics/Requested articles.
- Giving good reasons will help others in supporting your nomination.
- Select articles that interest a wider community of editors rather than those that attract only a small number of people.

Please add only support votes. Opposing votes will not affect the result, as the winner is simply the one with the most support votes (see Approval voting).
