WikiProject Patna is a project that was launched on 12 September 2008 by Be.human, aims primarily to create, fill out, build, edit, construct, and modify articles about Patna and Greater Patna Region. Patna is one of the oldest city of world and has many places of interest, significant events and interesting people that have helped form the unique character and style of the city.

As of 5 April 2024, there are 424 articles within the scope of WikiProject Patna, of which 10 are featured and 6 are good articles. This makes up 0.01% of the articles on Wikipedia, 0.09% of all featured articles and lists, and 0.02% of all good articles. Including non-article pages, such as talk pages, redirects, categories, etcetera, there are 1,298 pages in the project.

If you would like to join this project, we would love your help, so please add your name to the list below, and look at the to-do list for some suggestions on articles that you may be able to help with.

Coordinators?

The Coords keep the project pages on their watchlists, welcome new participants, maintain lists, keep the discussions tidy, on track, and on the right pages, and check for signatures and page links, and develop sub pages and templates as required, etc. - nothing much more than any expereinced project member can do. Coords offer their own suggestions and opinions in the normal way. Please post queries first on the WikiProject talk page. Do contact coordinators on their usertalk page if you have any unanswered queries or clarifications.

The scope of this article fundamentally is loosely defined as all articles and sections relating to Greater Patna Region/Patna Metropolitan Region(Sonpur, Maner, Danapur, Paliganj, Hajipur, Khagaul, Patna and Bihta) and Patna district. Almost all of these will be (eventually) categorised under Category:Patna, Category:Patna district, Category:Bihar and Category:India.

There are still lots of articles to be assessed and tagged! Check out the directory at the bottom if you want to help (Category:WikiProject Patna). See also: Template: ((WikiProject Patna)), below.

The parents of this WikiProject are WikiProject Cities, and WikiProject India whose relevance is somewhat limited vis-a-vis documenting a single very large city and the many communities within it.

At a state level, the parent of this project is WikiProject Bihar.

This WikiProject aims to help organize and contribute to the growing collection of articles about Patna.

This can be achieved by:

• Develop: Improve and maintain articles that are on the worklist, cleanup list, or requested on the project talk page.

• Coordinate:

• Tag all Patna-relevant articles with ((WikiProject Patna)), and assess and prioritize articles missing assessment or importance values.
• Categorize Patna related articles, including with stub tags and navigation boxes.

• Support: Invite more users to join with ((subst:WikiProject Patna invitation)) and assist them whenever possible.

Article to be created

• Saguna More
• Economy of Patna(currently a redirect)
• Mithapur Bus Stand
• Patna Market
• Urja Stadium
• Sabzibagh
• Digha-AIIMS Elevated Road
• Bailey Road Flyover (longest flyover in state)
• Jagjeevan Stadium
• Darbhanga House

Indic scripts in lead

There is community consensus that the lead sentence of an article should not contain any regional or Indic language script. It is suggested that IPA be used for help with pronunciation. For details, refer to this RfC: Native languages in lead.
