Wikipedia:WikiProject Texas A&M/New

Howdy! Welcome to WikiProject Texas A&M. This project formed from a group of Aggie Wikipedians who worked to promote the Texas A&M University article to Featured Article status. Successful at this task, we felt that the best way to coordinate improvements to Texas A&M Articles was to form a WikiProject. Wikiproject Texas A&M has made significant progress on Texas A&M pages. We have:
 * Organized all Texas A&M articles with a ranking system both of importance and quality of articles. Assessment
 * Brought the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band, the History of Texas A&M University, Aggie Bonfire, and Lawrence Sullivan Ross articles to featured article status.
 * Two of our FA's have have become featured articles of the week. Aggie bonfire, and the band.
 * Grown to 20 members. Participants

Goals
Our goals are to:
 * Maintain and improve the quality of Texas A&M-related articles
 * Get Texas A&M to Featured Topic status.
 * Represent Texas A&M in a classy and clean way
