[edit] Statistics

1. Bring our identified core topic articles (about 160) up to an agreed standard of quality. This work is coordinated through the COTF.
2. Add a further list of "key topics" which includes many more specific subjects (important historical figures, etc.), as discussed here.
3. Integrate suitable featured articles and the key quality articles identified by our contacts with WikiProjects into the core or key lists.
4. Organize the articles in a coherent way, and identify any significant missing topics or articles needing urgent review. Integrate articles with suitable support material (lists, etc.).
5. Identify any possible publication problems, agree on suitable publishers, pricing, media.
6. Issue a final list of articles for publication. Ideally these would be reviewed by subject experts, and validated versions identified before publication and publish, on DVD, CD, paper or some combination.

[edit] Strategy consensus

State names

All 31 Mexican states are located at (e.g.) [[Statename]]. See earlier discussion at Talk:States of Mexico.

City names

When disambiguation is not required, city articles go at their natural location: e.g, Hermosillo, Coatzacoalcos. If disambiguation with another city (Mexican or foreign) is needed, use the "comma, state" format: Nogales, Sonora, Nogales, Veracruz, Nogales, Arizona. If a state and a city share a name, use the "comma, state" location for the city and the undisambiguated location for the state. e.g., Veracruz, Veracruz (the city) and Veracruz (the state). For ease of linking, most of the conceivable redirects are already in place: Aguascalientes (state), San Luis Potosí (city), etc.
