Wikipedia:WikiProject Ontario/Kawartha Lakes

Welcome to the Kawartha Lakes task force of WikiProject Canada, WikiProject Ontario, and WikiProject Canadian communities.

Scope



 * Kawartha Lakes is a city within the south-central portion of the Canadian province of Ontario. It was known as Victoria County prior to municipal restructuring in 2001. The scope of this project includes everything within the geographical borders of the city, including its lakes, numbered roads, villages, ghost towns/abandoned post offices, geographical features, etc.

Todo items for members of Kawartha Lakes task force

 * Tag related articles.
 * Find editors who have shown interest in this subject and ask them to take a look here.
 * Identify articles for creation
 * Identify articles for improvement
 * Review importance and quality of existing articles
 * Interlink the specific articles with the wide-scoped articles (Especially Kawartha Lakes and Victoria County, Ontario)
 * Remove Redirects from Communities within City of Kawartha Lakes that are redirected to Townships and City of Kawartha Lakes, as this is causing havoc in other parts of the internet which are basing their platforms on Wikipedia. i.e. Businesses and organizations in Cameron, Ontario cannot list their accurate addresses on Facebook.
