Welcome to WikiProject Civil Rights Movement. This has been formed as a collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of the Civil Rights Movement and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please add yourself as a participant in the project, inquire on the talk page, and see the to-do list, below. Do join us and contribute to the project's development. Thousands of people read our civil rights articles every day and editing one is a great way to improve Wikipedia.

- Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs)
- Mitchumch (talk · contribs) - I like to find existing and missing crm content on Wikipedia; add categories and WikiProject templates to articles; create and add navboxes, infoboxes, and sidebars to articles; fix a variety of glaring issues present in crm content; move crm content away from popular thought towards a summary of reliable sources.
- Randy Kryn (talk · contribs)
- Dicklyon (talk · contribs) – I am proud of the progress that the civil rights movement made, and ashamed of the lack of progress in more recent years. But on Wikipedia, I just want to help assure a neutral, correct, and professionally styled presentation of it.
