Welcome to WikiProject Canberra!
Some
Wikipedians have formed a
project to better organise information in articles related to Canberra and the Australian Capital Territory . This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the
talk page and see the
to-do list there.
Also visit the
Australian Wikipedians' noticeboard for collaboration on Australian articles in general.
