This is the page to deal with discussion and nominations for theU.S. Collaboration of the Month (USCOTM), previouslyU.S. Collaboration of the Week (USCOTW). The USCOTM is a collaborative effort led by participants to improve differentUnited States articles. In its initial incarnation (as USCOTW) from November 2005 until mid 2006, articles were selected every two weeks. From September 2006 until August 2007, articles were chosen on a more sporadic basis (around monthly) and saw a lot lower level of activity. The Collaboration became inactive at that time. As of January 2011, the Collaboration has been reactivated for a trial (after a slew of editors joined the wikiproject), to see if some articles might be improved collaboratively togood article orfeatured article level.
The idea is that new editors might work alongside more experienced editors and the overall coordination might result in some high profile or large articles being worked up that might have proven too arduous for one editor.
As of now, three previous collaborations,Washington, D.C.,Statue of Liberty,Music of the United States arefeatured articles, whileHistory of New Jersey, andMount Rushmore were promoted and subsequently delisted. Three additional articles have receivedgood article status, but have since been delisted; of these, one (George Washington) was again a collaboration and become a Good Article again.
