User:Shannon1/California Waters Project

Current project: Kings, Kaweah, Tule and Kern Rivers + Feather River

This is the California Waters Project, which intends to improve the coverage on notable rivers, lakes and other fresh water resources in California to certain standards. Shannon1 has been working at this project for 15 years, 11 months and 7 days.

There are currently 193 articles covered by the project.

Top priority articles to FA class: 5.6% complete

High priority articles to GA class: 17.8% complete

All articles to B class or above: 23.3% complete

Upcoming projects

Sacramento River Mostly complete, but may need to be rewritten in some sections. 50% of links likely dead. Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta Should be ready for GAN after repairing dead links. California State Water Project Needs new map, and there are some gaps in data. History section needs a complete rewrite, it is kind of misleading currently. American River Needs a complete rewrite and expansion New Bullards Bar Dam Needs a complete rewrite and expansion Tulare Lake Needs expansion and more references
