Wikipedia:WikiProject Newspapers/Needs Infobox
Add an infobox to the following pages while doing minor updates and improvements. Creators of new pages are encouraged to leave the infobox task to others to do, putting their new page in the list when it is ready for an infobox. This makes sure we are getting multiple eyes on each page, and provides an opportunity for newbies to burnish their credentials.
How to Add a Newspaper Infobox
[edit]Add an infobox to existing newspaper pages. We encourage new editors to cut their teeth by adding infoboxes to existing pages, rather than creating new ones.
We also encourage people creating new pages to leave the infobox for someone else to do if possible, putting a link to the page here after creation. This should supply a steady stream of introductory opportunities to new project members to get familiar with editing and Wikipedia culture before moving on to creating new pages.
While adding infobox, also do basic grammar and citation checks if possible.

Pages to do
[edit]These pages need an infobox. Add an infobox and deal with any page issues. When you have added the infobox remove the page from the list here and add it to Wikipedia:WikiProject Newspapers/Infobox Added. (Eventually we'll get a bot to track this)
Quicker Edits
[edit]We put pages here we think will be easier to add an info box to because of the available information already on the page. Be advised that "quicker edits" may mean a half hour vs. an hour and a half. Ideally, as you add the infobox you should also review the page for errors and improve/extend the page if you see an opportunity to do so.

Infobox with cease date?
[edit]These sites require you verify that the paper is defunct (even though it may be in the USPNL). Still add the infobox with the cease date, and improve the page as needed. Knowing which papers have ceased publication is important as there are sometimes online imposters. In some cases the name is close to another name of a live paper -- provided a disambiguation link may be merited.
