Existing members: All of the content from the old page layout has now been reorganised. The templates can be found in the template directory, other resources have been moved around the page. Feedback and suggestions are welcome on the talk page. Please review the members list and add your own personal comments if you wish, stating your reason for participating in the project and so forth. Goals The project aims primarily to: Create and improve articles whose content has connection with the country of Faroe Islands, its history, geography and culture. Other goals include: The creation and maintenance of templates linking together relevant Faroe Islands articles. New articles This section lists recently created articles within the scope of the project. Remember to nominate the best new articles here so Wikipedia can highlight them on the main page.
