Wikipedia:WikiProject Buddhism

[edit] 

WikiProject Buddhism is a group of people dedicated to improving Buddhism-related contents in Wikipedia. This page contains only suggestions: things to give you focus and to get you going and you should not feel obligated in the least to follow them. If you don't know what to write or where to begin, following the guidelines below may be helpful.

[edit] 

• December 23, 2008: Hi everyone. I have implemented Turnkey presentation of WikiProject page (more details on the talk page). While this may not be perfectly done as yet, I hope it will encourage more efficient WikiProject operation in the future! All information that previously appeared on this page is archived at this page; much should probably be integrated here. Please help to make the operations of this project as smooth and efficient as possible! /Ninly (talk)
