This
WikiProject is an attempt to formulate a template for the
Frenchcommunes and to eventually create an article for each of the 36,782 communes.
Reason for a template is the lack of structure for most of the communes articles, which usually contain some loosely organised phrases. This WikiProject tries to suggest a structure for communes articles which would make them more structured, while also giving them a common look and feel.
This article is within the scope of WikiProject France, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of
France on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join
the discussion and see a list of open tasks.FranceWikipedia:WikiProject FranceTemplate:WikiProject FranceFrance articles
The code for that is: {{WikiProject France|commune=yes}}
If the above is now deprecated in favour of the new version, can we hope that someone will design code for a bot to replace the old one with the new version?

LizzieMack I've joined after the origianal project was complete. I'm now working on translating the commune's articles from French wikipedia so that they are no longer stubs.
GDuwen, Im working on some of this articles, so Im joining the project.
User:Buggie111, I've edited most of them on Simple, so I've decided to help out here. My goal: make one not so important (i.e. Y) a Start class article
Liam987 - I have been formatting external links to the
INSEE site with {{
INSEE}}, and changing descriptions like "[...]located in eastern
France" to "[...]located in eastern
MetropolitanFrance"
Sadenar40000 -Currently focusing on organizing the commune articles in proper expansion by translation from French Wikipedia categories, once that organization is done I intend to progressively work through said categories and translate the content of their paired French articles into English Wikipedia
See the
documentation for instructions how to use this template, and how to copy the info box from the corresponding commune on the French wikipedia. Don't forget to add the correct region/department categories and interwiki fr: tag to the article.
Other valuable examples of infobox can be found at the following articles:
Suggested reference article for discussion purposes:
Le Puy, Doubs
Naming
Commune articles should simply be named Commune unless this is ambiguous with an existing Wikipedia article. In that case, they should follow Commune, Département
All communes should belong to the category "Category:Communes of département". Further proposals are on the talk page.
Municipal and cantonal elections 2007 postponed to 2008
Note to editors: a law passed at the beginning of December 2005 has extended all current mayoral mandates to March 2008 (to avoid an "electoral traffic jam" in 2007).
