Wikipedia:WikiProject United States

Welcome to WikiProject United States on the English Wikipedia! We are a project dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to the United States, with an emphasis on subjects with regional and national significance. This project was formed to coordinate the development of United States related articles and help maintain the United States Portal. Some project goals are to help list and categorize United States related articles, develop quality standards for articles and build templates that help users browse the articles that fall under this project. This project also provides a place for Wikipedians to share information and resources regarding improvements to United States related articles. Here, editors can ask for help with certain articles and bring otherwise overlooked articles and problems to the attention of other editors. For more information of the role of WikiProjects, check out WikiProject guidelines.

Note: There are more than 100 Wikiprojects relating to United States topics. See the Wikiproject Embassy tab for links to statistics for those projects. For the Assessment statistics for the projects currently supported directly by WikiProject United States go to Quality and importance tables.
