Wikipedia:WikiProject Manatee-Sarasota History

Welcome to WikiProject Manatee Sarasota History. Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of articles within the Manatee and Sarasota counties of Florida as well as the organization of information associated with the topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please add yourself as a participant in the project, inquire on the talk page, and see the to-do list, below.
