Some Wikipedians have formed a project to improve organisation and standardised look and feel of articles related to the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.
New articles page contains articles that may be Tamil Nadu related. Please add this page your watchlist and monitor the articles.
Scope[edit]
The scope of this article fundamentally is loosely defined as all articles and sections relating to Tamil Nadu. Almost all of these will be (eventually) categorised under Category:Tamil Nadu and Category:India
Goals
- Creation of a generally standard look and feel for all Tamil Nadu-related articles.
- To produce as many Featured Articles as possible related to Tamil Nadu.
- To produce as many Good Articles as possible related to Tamil Nadu.
- To write as many Did you know articles as possible related to Tamil Nadu.
- Tamil Nadu-related Tourist Attractions to be given more importance and it should be improved with suitable images of the places, since these articles will be read by many from outside India.
- Those who read about Tamil Nadu should have the feeling that they should visit Tamil Nadu and India.
