Maybe remove the To-do-list

I haven't seen many other WikiProjects with Project todo-lists in template; to-do lists on article talk pages should ideally be focused on specific article improvements, see WP:Todo.

If kept, this template should mention todos from the article's perspective (to help editors develop new geography article) rather than from the WikiProject's perspective. e.g. listing a list of things every geography article should have (Infobox, map, photo), not listing WikiProject tasks DFlhb (talk) 09:16, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Cue sports has one. But you're right, they're not common. What seems to be done as an alternative is to include a to-do list on the main page for the WikiProject. Sometimes this is included directly in the main page (as with Wikipedia:WikiProject Biology#To do), sometimes as a subpage; this itself might either be linked from the main page (as with Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains/Todo or Wikipedia:WikiProject United States/To do) or transcluded into it (as with Wikipedia:WikiProject Food and drink). --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 09:07, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
