వికీపీడియా:WikiProject Templates
A group of Wikipedians has formed this WikiProject to better manage Wikipedia's myriad templates. This page and all subpages of this page contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the project's talk page and see the to-do list there.
