Parentage
The parents of this WikiProject are WikiProject Cities, and WikiProject India whose relevance is somewhat limited vis-a-vis documenting a single very large city and the many communities within it.
At a state level, the parent of this project is WikiProject Uttar Pradesh.
This WikiProject aims to help organize and contribute to the growing collection of articles about Lucknow.
This can be achieved by:
- Develop: Improve and maintain articles that are on the worklist, cleanup list, or requested on the project talk page.
- Coordinate:
- Tag all Lucknow-relevant articles with {{WikiProject Lucknow}}, and assess and prioritize articles missing assessment or importance values.
- Categorize Lucknow related articles, including with stub tags and navigation boxes.
- Support: Invite more users to join with {{subst:WikiProject Lucknow invitation}} and assist them whenever possible.
Manual of Style
Indic scripts in lead
There is community consensus that the lead sentence of an article should not contain any regional or Indic language script. It is suggested that IPA be used for help with pronunciation. For details, refer to this RfC: Native languages in lead.
