[edit] Guidelines

Always cite your sources as fully as you possibly can! This is priority number one.
Use inline citations - a simple reference at the end of an article is not acceptable - take pride in your citations!
If you feel you need to include an unreferenced statement, place a {{fact}} tag after the statement and request a reference from someone in this project in the Shared references section.

[edit] Open Tasks

Create a project banner.

The entire article Colditz Castle has become very unwieldy and needs major revisions, see Talk:Colditz Castle
