[edit] Welcome!
Barev (or "Parev") and welcome to WikiProject Armenia, a WikiProject designed to make collaboration and improvement of articles related to Armenia and Armenians easier and more effective. This page and its subpages contain the suggestions of Wikipedians who are interested or have made substantial contributions to articles related to Armenia; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. Like the nation of Armenia itself, WikiProject Armenia is always growing. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there. For further information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProjects and Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices.
A separate subproject WikiProject WikiProject Karabakh is functioning under this project. Please join the WikiProject Karabakh and help us create more information on Artsakh
WikiProject Armenia came into being on March 28, 2006, when a group of Armenian Wikipedians realized that they had the opportunity to collaborate in a more organized and effective way on articles pertaining to Armenia and Armenians. However, participation is not only limited to Armenians; Wikipedians of all ethnic and racial backgrounds are more than welcome to participate.

[edit] Adopt an article
Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.
