Wikipedia:Meetup/DC 26/To-do list

Hi! Welcome to the Fine Art Edit-a-Thon! We have a great list of articles that need creation or improvement in relation to art history. We hope you find something of interest, and we look forward to sharing your work on Twitter, and with library and museum staff who have contributed resources.

And if you're not interested in writing articles, we encourage you to organize images, clean up, crop and then insert them into articles in any language that is deemed worthy! See the entire collection of images here: '''Images from the Archives of American Art on Commons.

We're also interested in developing notability guidelines for 2-D, 3-D and public art. This can perhaps be discussed.

Content related to the Archives of American Art's Federal Art Project images
Alphabetical by first word or name.

This is a very lengthy list, but perhaps you'll find something that appeals to you, and you can bookmark this list and come back to it!
