This map displays the distribution of Good and Featured articles that are geographically-specific. It can be added to and modified at: Wikipedia:WikiProject Dorset/Map

{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Dorset/Map}}

If you feel any articles in the scope of WikiProject Dorset, meet the criteria for either [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_is_a_good_article%3F GA Status] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_criteria FA Status] then leave a message here with a link to the talk page. As a project we will review the article and award a status as per our assessment criteria.

Put any articles here that are very important (usually High or Top) to Dorset and require some significant work. Leave a brief summary of why you have included it and the quality status (does not have to be an assessment by this Project).

1. Update Dorset settlement articles with 2011 census data http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/guide-method/census/2011/index.html. Please prioritise featured and good articles.

This section contains templates used by or applicable to the project. Note that new stub templates should be proposed before creation at WP:WSS/P

{{WikiProject Dorset|category=no}}

All entries of Dorset towns and villages should have the above template placed on their talk pages. A list of categories whose articles should be tagged is available at :Category:Dorset. Sometimes, you will see a UK geography WikiProject template already there; in these cases, add our template after theirs. You can add the template using the following code:

{{WikiProject Dorset|class=|importance=}}

See WikiProject Dorset for further examples and details of the suggestions parameter.
