This
WikiProject aims to organize, improve the quality, and provide accurate information in an established, community-driven, Wikipedia standard for the province of
British Columbia,
Canada, and its related articles. The importance of these articles for new users, research, education, and the pursuit of accumulated knowledge will be accomplished through our efforts in providing a consistent format and standard to our articles. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to participate, please follow the instruction on the
Member's Page.

Johnstone Strait gives a link to map/sat images that is a reasonable alternative. See {{
coord}} for more information. Also consider adding link to BC Government place name database using {{
BCGNIS}} template.
Add BCProject template to articles within project scope. Use {{WikiProject Canada|bc=yes|class=Stub|importance=low}} following the
assessment guidelines (importance = low, mid, high or top, class = stub, start, b, ga, a or fa). Here are some of the many BC categories (drill to sub and parent categories as well) where you can look for untagged articles and articles to expand:
