WikiProject Ohio
Scope
WikiProject Ohio was formed to unify and coordinate all things Ohio-related on Wikipedia and help to maintain The Ohio Portal. Some project goals are to help list and categorize Ohio-related articles, develop quality standards for articles and build templates that help users browse the dozens of articles that fall under this project's watch. Our aim is to create articles on Ohio's cities, counties, geography, transportation, culture, and history. The project's participants intend to expand Wikipedia's resources on Ohio in a fair and accurate manner. This project will also provide a place for Ohioans and other editors to share information and resources. Here editors can ask for help with certain articles and bring otherwise overseen articles and problems to the attention of other editors.
