Welcome to WikiProject British crime.

Purpose

To organise and generally improve all pages relating to British crime. This would bring up to date a lot of media attention articles and some high-profile British crimes without pages.

Additionally, this would help to categorize the British crimes more effectively.

If you are in any way interested in starting or joining in this project, please add your name below.

Templates used by the project include:

  • {{tl|User WikiProject British crime}}, a userbox which can be added to member user pages as a shortcut to this project page.
  • {{tl|WP British crime}} (or {{tl|Uk-crime}}), a project banner which can be added to the top of the talk pages of related articles.
  • {{tl|WP British Crime Invitation}}, a formal invitation to members who contributed and/or are interested in British crime related subjects.
