Welcome to the Language and literature of Russia task force!
Scope
|
The scope of this task force includes all articles related to the languages and literature of Russia, widely construed. Major subtopics include...
Goals
- Improving the coverage of Russia's languages and literature on Wikipedia
- The following line should be inserted onto the talk page of an article to place it within WP:RUSSIA scope, with appropriate assessment parameters:

- For articles within the scope of this task force, also set the "lit" parameter to "yes":
{{WikiProject Russia|class=|importance=|lit=yes}}
- When assessing a page with WP:RUSSIA template, consider also adding templates of other wikiprojects. This may attract more editors to the page.
- Adding new tasks to the to-do list
- Increasing participation
