Growth/March 2020 inventory

The Growth team works on a project that eases newcomers' first steps. We are trying to understand what initiatives different wikis have to welcome newcomers, and which templates are commonly used for maintenance activities. You can help this project by checking if your wiki's pages are listed on Wikidata.

Please do not edit this page. Edit directly Wikidata.

If you have questions, please use the talk page.

Thank you for your help!
