Wikipedia:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places



Welcome to the National Register of Historic Places WikiProject. We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of listings on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. This project was formed on October 17, 2006.

Project information
The project covers all articles about U.S. National Register of Historic Places listings in the English language Wikipedia. We try to improve Wikipedia's coverage of these listings by creating new articles or by improving existing ones. For questions about common practices, guidelines, and useful resources, newcomers (or even long-time veterans) may make use of our FAQ section, our resources section, or our style guide for NRHP articles.

Resources
Note:There is a consensus against using this tool to repetitively generate stubs without enhancing them to a "pretty good" standard. Also note that this database occasionally contains errors, so editors should verify the output of the tool.
 * Frequently asked questions – A list of the most frequently asked questions in this project.
 * Resources – Includes many nationwide and state-specific resources for developing articles.
 * Style guide – Guidelines for creating new articles.
 * Assessment – Guidelines for assessing the quality and importance of articles under this project's scope.
 * Maintenance guide – documentation on how to perform routine tasks within the project's scope.
 * Elkman automated tool – Generates the Infobox NRHP template and some categories for articles, using information from the National Register database.
