The scope of this task force includes all articles related to the law of Russia and politics of Russia, widely construed, but mostly limited to the period since 1991 (the subjects related to the earlier periods also may be included, if they have especial significance for modern politics). Major subtopics include Russia's government system, political parties and elections, international relations, legal history and law enforcement.

• Improving the coverage of Russia's politics and law on Wikipedia
• The following line should be inserted onto the talk page of an article to place it within WP:RUSSIA scope, with appropriate assessment parameters:

{{WikiProject Russia|class=|importance=}}

For articles within the scope of this task force, also set the "pol" parameter to "yes":

{{WikiProject Russia|class=|importance=|pol=yes}}

• When assessing a page with WP:RUSSIA template, consider also adding templates of other wikiprojects. This may attract more editors to the page.

• Adding new tasks to the to-do list
• Increasing participation
