New articles

Please feel free to include in this WikiProject any New Mexico-related articles that you create or find. To include an article in this project, put {{WikiProject New Mexico|class=|importance=}} at the top of the article's talk page. The article will appear in the next update of our quality log. New articles that have an interesting or unusual fact in them should be suggested for the Did you know? box on the Main Page. Please also put new articles into a New Mexico category. If you cannot decide which one, use our main category: put [[Category:New Mexico]] at the bottom of the article, just above any links to other language Wikipedia.

Articles needing attention

Assessment

Rates articles for both quality and importance to this project. Assessment is not peer review (see below), but a quick rating of the article and (where warranted) brief comments on how to improve the article. -->

• Carlsbad, New Mexico

In-project peer review

Peer review of articles for areas for improvement, performed by this project rather than Wikipedia-wide; good for both a first take on Start-class articles, and for focused improvement efforts before Good Article and Featured Article review. In contrast to Wikipedia-wide peer review, which focuses on Wikipedia standards, in-project peer review typically focuses on the quality of the article from a topical standpoint; both are equally valuable but very different review processes. In contrast to assessment, peer review is a detailed review.
