Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Christian music. WikiProject Christian Music is a project, created to help assemble editors interested in Christian music. The aim of this project is to standardize and improve articles related to Christian music and its sub-genres, as well as to create missing articles.

WikiProject Christian music is designed to improve:

  • Articles and lists about Christian music, Christian music artists, etc.
  • Biographies of Christian artists and groups.
  • The "standard" of Christian music articles.

This page contain their suggestions on Christian music article templates.
