=Pages we're editing=

Below are six lists of the pages that have been identified for editing. The lists roughly coincide with the amount and type of work that we think each page needs, so that editors can more easily find something to work on that fits the amount of time/energy/inclination they have available. If you're very short on time, you might want to stop reading here and go straight to the group watchlist (at the bottom of the page). If you think an entry is on the wrong list, or after your work on the page the entry needs moving, please do so!

Bank of England pages to edit, create or expand
In order to avoid duplication, please insert your name next to the entry you are planning to edit (please remember to remove your name when you are done, so that other contributors take a look!).

When you think the page you have edited is at this point, please move the entry from here to the group watchlist below, and put the date in brackets after it (so we know how recently it was created/updated). Getting a page to this point is an achievement!

Feel free to add the page you worked on to the lists in the 'Welcome' tab under 'Outcomes' - please leave them on an appropriate list here too though!
