Below listed are the selections for the United States Collaboration of the Month and how they were improved.
In February 2011, WikiProject United States relaunched the United States Wikipedians' Collaboration. Rather than a weekly collaboration it was decided to extend the time period to monthly, allowing more editors to participate and more time to expand the articles.
