Saskatchewan articles of increase
Saskatoon John G. Diefenbaker International Airport has had joint editors expanding this article significantly. New topics have been started on Saskatchewan to improve the Geography of Saskatchewan main article so it may perchance run at GA again. Flora, Fauna, and Geology of Saskatchewan articles have been started. There is an article started for almost every highway listed at List of Saskatchewan provincial highways. Since the election, several electoral district articles have been updated with the current information which is fabulous and a large undertaking. The cities and towns of Saskatchewan have articles of representation. Redlinks for villages are disappearing from the List of communities in Saskatchewan. Hamlets, rural municipalities and Indian reserves, still need more help in regards to their red links. (BTW there is a discussion First Nations reserves v.s. Indian reserves naming)
