Open tasks
- Adding the {{WikiProject Switzerland}} project banner to the talk pages of all articles that fall directly within the scope of this project.
- don't push the banner on articles that happen to be in some subcategory of Category:Switzerland but are already in perfectly competent hands of a more pertinent project. If we wanted to tag all articles in the category we could use a bot.
- Adding the articles to the Wikipedia:WikiProject Switzerland/Articles list by category.
- Checking the recent changes list to note improvements, other changes, or vandalism to articles.
- Expand and illustrate the over 1000 stubs about mountains (see List of mountains in Switzerland), place links to them in other related articles.

Articles needing attention
- Geography of Switzerland - I've expanded this article, but it could still use some attention (Climate, Land Use and Environment are all still short)Tobyc75 (talk) 05:36, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- Early Modern Switzerland
- Switzerland in the Napoleonic era
- Switzerland as a federal state
- Modern history of Switzerland
- Swiss (people) (merge somewhere?)
- Swiss folklore - extremely stubby, consult Category:Swiss folklore (and Fasnacht), and de:Kategorie:Feste und Brauchtum (Schweiz).
- Music of Switzerland
- Economy of Switzerland (has an 'unreferenced' tag)
- Canton of Basel — I've just expanded this article quite a bit, but I'm not sure that all of the information in the period 1501–1798 is actually about the canton, rather than the adjacent Bishopric of Basel; could someone take a look, please? Once you have, please remove {{expert-subject}}. Thanks! — OwenBlacker (Talk) 18:02, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
- Georg Fischer (Swiss company) please expand 10:48, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
