Welcome to the WikiProject Townsville!

Recent changes to articles falling under WikiProject Townsville.

Welcome to wikiproject Townsville. Townsville, Queensland, is Northern Australia's largest city (or the largest above the tropic of Capricorn in Australia) and some Wikipedians have decided to collaborate on this topic.

This wikiproject was created in August 2006. It comes under the scope of the larger WikiProject Australian places and WikiProject Queensland.

As Australia's 13th largest, and Northern Australia's largest city, our goal is to detail, expand and standardise the articles related to Townsville and The Former city of Thuringowa in Queensland.

Lists of articles within the scope of this project can be found at Category:WikiProject Townsville articles and Category:Townsville.

The parent WikiProject of this project is: WikiProject Queensland (a child of WikiProject Australia).
