{{WikiProject status|sc1=WP: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.

Canberra is Australia's capital city and has many places of interest, significant events and interesting people that have helped form the unique character and style of the city. The project has also been expanded to cover the rest of the Australian Capital Territory.
