The '''WikiProject China/Chinese cities workgroup''' aims primarily to standardize [[prefecture-level city]] and [[county-level city]] entries of the [[People's Republic of China]]. The 4 [[municipalities of China|municipalities of the PRC]] ([[Beijing]], [[Chongqing]], [[Shanghai]], [[Tianjin]]) are covered by the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject China/Chinese provinces workgroup|WikiProject China/Chinese provinces workgroup]]''', but due to their nature as cities, they will also follow some of the guidelines given here. This WikiProject is likely not going to cover [[Taiwan]], [[Macau]], and [[Hong Kong]] at this stage.

{{WikiProject China|cities=yes|category=no}}

(Note that in this example the notice has been classified as "Project", as it is assessed by namespace. This will not happen normally if the above code is used.)

===Infobox===
All settlements in China should use the standard infobox of {{tl|Infobox settlement}}.  This infobox provides a consistent look between the various types settlements in China and in the other articles of the wikipedia like [[Toronto]], [[Montreal]], [[Mexico City]], and [[Saigon]].  The default "settlement_type" is city, but it can be changed to reflect any type of settlement, like counties, towns, villages, etc.  {{tl|Infobox settlement}} also has a super imposable dot map feature that allows a map to be used with any settlement in China.  It also as a location map feature that will automatically place a dot on a map of China if the coordinates are known (see [[Kunshan]]). Other examples include [[Beijing]] (see below) and [[Shanghai]]
