Wikipedia:WikiProject Eastern Europe

An enlargeable map of Eastern Europe

This WikiProject was formed to foster better articles on Eastern Europe with a spirit of cooperation. See also our Assessment Department and The Noticeboard.

Goals edit

The goals of this project are to create, improve, and maintain articles relating to Eastern Europe, its history, people, geography, and culture. This includes the countries of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Georgia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, and Ukraine. It is understood that this project will in no way attempt to intervene in the scope of any specific national projects which may exist or come to exist for these individual countries.

Scope edit

The scope of this project is all articles which deal with the region, countries, people, and history of Eastern Europe. These articles should all be contained in the Category:Eastern Europe or one of its subcategories. Our project's specific focus will be those countries which are not already specifically covered by existing more focused projects, specifically Belarus and Moldova.
