Wikipedia:WikiProject Russia/Physical geography of Russia task force

Physical geography of Russia

Welcome to the Physical geography of Russia task force!

Scope

edit

The scope of this task force includes all articles related to the physical geography of Russia, widely construed. Major subtopics include Russia's topography, climate, biodiversity, exploration of Russia and Russian explorers.

Goals

edit
  • Improving the coverage of Russia's physical geography on Wikipedia
  • The following line should be inserted onto the talk page of an article to place it within WP:RUSSIA scope, with appropriate assessment parameters:
{{WikiProject Russia|class=|importance=}}
For articles within the scope of this task force, also set the "physgeo" parameter to "yes":
{{WikiProject Russia|class=|importance=|physgeo=yes}}
  • When assessing a page with WP:RUSSIA template, consider also adding templates of other wikiprojects. This may attract more editors to the page.
  • Adding new tasks to the to-do list
  • Increasing participation

  • Ledoyom (deal with tags)
  • Mount Elbrus (add more images, clean-up)
  • Khibiny Mountains (add more images)
  • Lovozero Massif (add more images)
  • Lvinaya Past
  • Mendeleyeva (consider move)
  • Suullar Myraan (deal with tags)
  • Vysokaya
  • Yablonoi Mountains and Kontalaksky Golets have contradictory information: the infobox on the former says that the range's high point is the latter, with an elevation of 2519 meters; however, the infobox on the latter says that its elevation is 1706 meters. Following the provided coordinate links and choosing the Google Maps Terrain option suggests that the 1706 claim is correct; however, I have known Google Maps' Terrain data to be wrong before. Someone who knows more than me should figure out the truth and edit accordingly.
