WIKIPROJECT ESPIONAGE

WikiProject Espionage was formed on May 2, 2010 to better improve espionage-related articles on Wikipedia. It is our goal to help users of the site gain more knowledge about espionage and its history, as well as encourage community participation in editing articles on the topic of espionage. Through collaboration and team-work, we hope to play a part in improving articles within our scope, while also participating in community-wide reviews and collaborations with other WikiProjects on the website. It is our hope that this project is a net positive for the community.
