Welcome to the WikiProject New Jersey on the English Wikipedia! We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to the State of New Jersey.
Issues concerning New Jersey related articles and topics are discussed on the main talk page.
Assessment
Article assessment focuses on quantifying the quality of Wikipedia's New Jersey related articles. The resulting article ratings are used within the project to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work. This system will be used in the future to select official A-Class articles. There are currently 119 articles that have not been assessed.
Article cleanup focuses on improving the overall quality of Wikipedia's New Jersey articles, and their compliance with the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia. The cleanup effort is meant to reduce the amount of unnecessary content and articles within the WikiProject New Jersey. It also aims to help in the progression of articles that require work to climb up the assessment scale. Articles in need of immediate attention (proposed deletions, AfDs, Good and Featured content reviews, requested moves, etc.) are listed as Article Alerts. Articles that have been tagged for maintenance can be found in the Cleanup listing.
Peer Review
There is a peer review page that users can use to nominate articles for which they wish to get feedback from other contributors so that they may become featured articles. Please do not nominate stubs or underdeveloped articles.
Several articles, lists and images relating to New Jersey and produced by WikiProject New Jersey contributors have achieved recognition as being some of the finest work on Wikipedia. The following have been honoured with inclusion among Wikipedia's Featured Articles, Featured Lists, Featured Pictures and Good Articles:

Lindsey40186 (talk·contribs) 23:59:00, 28 May 2022 (UTC) - I've nursed a few NJ articles but can certainly do more. Currently in Ocean County, but have knowledge of Mercer and Cape May as well. Central Jersey is real.[reply]

Rblaster15:18, 5 September 2006 (UTC) Thanks for the suggestion to join, Alan. This native New Jerseyan would love to add to info on the state, particularly radio and TV station lists/info; facts and figures; the odd article or two as needed.[reply]
MCWicoff22:56, 15 February 2007 (UTC) I'm looking forward to work on this project. I'm most interested in extinct New Jersey, the rails and ghost towns. Oh but the darned references![reply]
