WikiProject COVID-19 aims to add to and build consensus for pages relating to COVID-19. They have so far discussed items listed below. Please discuss proposed improvements to them at the project talk page.
For infoboxes on the main articles of countries, use Wuhan, Hubei, China for the origin parameter. (March 2020)
"Social distancing" is generally preferred over "physical distancing". (April 2020, May 2020)
Page title
COVID-19 (full caps) is preferable in the body of all articles, and in the title of all articles/category pages/etc.(RM April 2020, including the main article itself, RM March 2021).
SARS-CoV-2 (exact capitalisation and punctuation) is the common name of the virus and should be used for the main article's title, as well as in the body of all articles, and in the title of all other articles/category pages/etc. (June 2022, overturning April 2020)
Map
There is no consensus about which color schemes to use, but they should be consistent within articles as much as possible. There is agreement that there should be six levels of shading, plus gray for areas with no instances or no data. (May 2020)
There is no consensus about whether the legend, the date, and other elements should appear in the map image itself. (May 2020)
For map legends, ranges should use fixed round numbers (as opposed to updating dynamically). There is no consensus on what base population to use for per capita maps. (May 2020)

Omer Benjakob (February 9, 2020). "On Wikipedia, a fight is raging over coronavirus disinformation". Wired (magazine). Retrieved February 9, 2020. Since its creation, the main article has undergone more than 6,500 edits by over 1,200 editors. So large was the deluge of facts and figures relating to the virus that less than two weeks after opening, the main article was forked off to create one devoted to listing the cases of "Wuhan coronavirus outbreak by country and territory." A few days later another article was opened, displaying a timeline of the outbreak.

The first five footnotes, a through e, under the "Timeline of first confirmed cases by country or territory" section are actually for the Vaccinations table in the "Statistics" section. These are showing up under the wrong table, and I'm not sure how to fix it. Thought I'd alert other people so someone more competent than me can figure it out.

These are in german, but I believe you can look for numbers in the articles to confirm this.
The current number in the wikipedia article is somewhat above 16.000, so this is now an incorrect number. The real
number should be 19.851 for Austria (at the least for today; evidently the number changes daily, but ~16.000 is now
clearly incorrect). 2A02:8388:1600:A200:3AD5:47FF:FE18:CC7F (talk) 06:43, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. COVID-19 pandemic by country and territory#Vaccinations wasn't displaying the notelist under the table. Jroberson108 (talk) 23:10, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
