Assessment - Musicboxes - Topics

WikiProject World music's second phase of development will attempt to meet the following goals. These goals are thus far only proposed, and may be changed at any time.

Our goals could be divided into the following areas:

  • Expanding stubs
  • Writing new articles
  • Getting articles to featured status
