Welcome to WikiProject England
Join the discussion, ask questions, and share
The Wiki currently has 103,319 articles in English
Double Bus England.jpg

Scope[edit | edit source]

Articles about England and England research topics. Ideally a child WikiProject could be set-up for each English County which would focus on articles for county level resources and the parishes within each county. Until these are created these are within the scope of this project. Some articles cover both England and Wales and so would also fall within the scope of WikiProject Wales.

Child WikiProjects[edit | edit source]

Meetings
[edit | edit source]

A Project Meeting is held every other Wednesday afternoon at 2 p.m. MST.  Everyone is invited.  If you would like to work on the project, but aren't sure where to start, this is a good place to learn more about what is going on. 

  • Join the meeting here
  • The meeting number is 994 670 621
  • There is no password required
  • The system will call you, but should you need to dial in, the phone number is 1-855-537-4000 (U.S. Toll-Free)


For more information or questions, contact the Project Coordinator, Jane Colmenares, evancol@yahoo.com Evancol 15:06, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
