Wikibooks:WikiProject Languages

Scope
This WikiProject aims primarily to organize books in the area of language learning and to provide a platform for communication between editors of books related to language learning. Primarily it serves to create some kind of coherence between the main language learning books, but will also encompass those such as French For Football.

The goals of this WikiProject are to:
 * provide a standard "bare bones" format for language learning books
 * provide useful links for module writers
 * provide a location to discuss issues relating to this section of Wikibooks
 * provide community support for writing language learning texts.
