Welcome to WikiProject Belgium! This group hopes to

  • improve articles related to Belgium.
  • create missing articles on various fields (history, geography, culture, music, people, organisations, etc.
  • If this project gains sufficient critical mass, the talk page could be an efficient way of contacting other Belgians (e.g. for local meetings).

The central place to talk about this project is this page's discussion page.

The parent of this project is WikiProject Countries.

We are always looking for interested members!


Article creation drive

  • You can add links in the normal Wikipedia way (using [[ and ]]), or you can use the
    ill2
    templates (that put these handy links to the wikipedias in other languages behind the article title).
  • Anyone can bold articles that they consider high priority!
  • If you translate an article, first read Wikipedia:Translation#Instructions.
  • A bluelinked "striked" title (like this) means that the article has been checked for spelling and grammar. Please check articles that haven't been striked yet.


Stub sorting

  • Please use the most specific stub tag possible.
  • WP:WSS/P
    before creation. Otherwise, these may need to be renamed, modified, or deleted, because they may mess up the hierarchy of stub types.

Some high-profile articles related to Belgium that have been repeatedly vandalised (the typical insert-a-not-so-funny-joke vandalism).
