Wikipedia:Mexico Collaboration

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Shortcut: WP:MexC

Approximately every month a Mexico Collaboration will be picked using this page. This is a specific Mexico-related topic that could be greatly improved. The aim is to have a featured-standard article by the end of the month from widespread cooperative editing.

The project aims to fill gaps about Mexico in Wikipedia, to give users a focus, and to give us all something to be proud of. Anyone can nominate an article and can vote for the nominated articles. Around the 21st of the month, the votes are tallied, and the winner will be promoted for a month to potential contributors.

	The current Mexico Collaboration is Coat of Arms of Mexico.
	You can nominate an article you think needs improvement here.

Selecting the next collaboration

The next article will be selected on November 21, 2005.

Voting

Please vote in favor of as many candidates as you like; oppose votes have no effect (approval voting is used). Any registered user may vote for an article, provided that account's first edit occurred before the nomination. You do not have to have any special knowledge about Mexico to nominate or vote for an article. To vote for an article, simply edit the appropriate section and add # ~~~~. If you believe that a topic does not fall within the scope of this project, please mention your objections in the "Comments" section. Around the 21st of every month, the article currently with the most votes will be selected to be the new collaboration. In the case of a tie, the article nominated first will be selected. Articles not selected must receive at least two votes per week to remain in consideration. If a nomination fails to achieve sufficient votes, it may be renominated after at least two weeks. You may wish to see the archive of successful nominations.
