WikiProject Chicago was started on July 5, 2005, to coordinate work on the article Chicago. Some Wikipedians have adopted this as a project to coordinate work on articles related to the Chicago metropolitan area and the city of Chicago in the U.S. state of Illinois. This broader set of articles is now the project's main focus.
