Welcome to WikiProject Islands. Some Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving
Wikipedia's coverage of Islands and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please
join the project, inquire on the
talk page and see the
to-do list below.
Goals
To improve or create articles for the betterment of Wikipedia's coverage of
Islands.
Guidelines
This project is dedicated to improving the quality of writing and the amount of information for all island and island-related articles on Wikipedia. This includes:
Article coordination, organization and collaborations
Article creation, expansion and maintenance
Article categorization
Maintaining objectivity and neutral point-of-view in island-related articles
Assess : Locate and tag all relevant article talk pages with the project's banner: {{WikiProject Islands|class=|importance=}}. Remember to properly assess all articles, using the project's
quality-scale. Assess the backlog of unassessed articles in
Category:Unassessed Islands articles.
Infobox : If an article needs it, add {{Infobox islands}}, filling in the relevant information.
Please feel free to list your new Islands-related articles here (newer articles at the top, please). Any new articles that have an interesting or unusual fact in them, are at least over 1,500 characters, don't have any dispute templates on them, and cite their sources, should be suggested for the
Did you know? box on the Wikipedia
Main Page.
I recently created
Omfori Island. There wasn't loads of information about it but if you need to edit anything, please feel free.

I recently created:
Populated islands of the Great Lakes. The article lists islands with a population of more than about 100. And I decided to include islands of the great lakes region, and not just ones that are strictly located in one of the Great Lakes. I provided brief descriptions for each island, along with references, and a link to each island's main article. Please let me know if I missed any populated islands on the list.
