Wikipedia:WikiProject University of Virginia

Welcome to WikiProject University of Virginia! This is a public forum for anyone to collaborate with others in developing Wikipedia articles related to the University of Virginia or to meet other Wikimedia enthusiasts at UVA for in-person wiki events and activities.

Everyone is welcome to join! The Wikipedia community maintains this project independently of UVA's administration in the usual wiki way.

Development of Wiki content related to UVA
This project invites everyone to develop Wikimedia content related to UVA. Anyone can tag the talk pages of relevant English Wikipedia articles with this WikiProject's support template. Tagging in this way will list a wiki article on this project's ranking box by importance and quality. In general, anyone developing the articles which are highest importance but lowest quality would have the most impact, but feel free to engage with Wikimedia projects however you like. Anyone should edit whatever interests them!

UVA community programs and events
Wiki editors organize programs and events in which people develop Wikipedia articles and related Wikimedia content. This project invites anyone who organizes a UVA-related event to list it here. In general, the community of wiki editors at UVA support any wiki event in Charlottesville.
