Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Congress/WikiList Workgroup

A Project Congress Workgroup to develop a compreshensive solution to the various lists maintained by the project.

Sometimes list articles get caught up in the AfD process due its status as a stub, but sometimes there are valid arguments to be made for changes to the current structure.

Since a change in the structure of one article will create a need to change from 49 to hundreds of other similar articles, this workgroup is being established to handle the question comprehensively, so that if hundreds of articles must be changed, they only have to be changed once.

This project page will be a source of resources, areas that need to be addressed, etc. The hard core discussion should take place on the talk page for this workgroup.
