Some Wikipedians have formed a project to improve the organisation and quality of articles related to the Hindustani language and all allied languages/dialects, either to itself or to one of its registers, Hindi or Urdu. The project is a direct child of the Indian Wikiproject; however, both Pakistanis and Indians are welcome to join this project, provided they understand or want to understand the relationships among the concerned languages linguistically and not ideologically.

If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.
