[edit] Goals

WikiProject CCM has some broad goals and ambitions that it desires to achieve. Please don't edit the list; rather, propose your new ideas here and discuss them here.

[edit] List of goals

These are the list of goals so far. If you want to add more, see the below.

  1. To make a standard for articles relating to Contemporary Christian music This will be achieved using the musician structure guidline.
  2. Integrate {{infobox musical artist 2}} into pages on artists and bands This infobox is administered by WikiProject Musicians. To see the latest discussion and changes to the infobox, see their proposal page.

[edit] Discuss goals

Please discuss the goals here. In order to keep this section short, please move inactive sections to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject/Archives/Goals/1. If you aren't sure, you might be safe just leaving it there. When you are adding a new heading here, use the third headline, as in ===A descriptive heading===.

[edit] Square Peg Alliance

I am a fan of several of the members of the Square Peg Alliance, a group of 13 Christian musicians who are cross-promoting one another's work. Many of them do not have pages at all, and those that do could use a lot of work. Feel free to hop on over to Square Peg Alliance and help me out with the work I've already begun over there. Thanks!

[edit] Tasks

You may simply add petty and trivial tasks, which may seem laborous, below. But, these are the things that helps you get barnstars and recognition (as well as increase your edit count :-).)

[edit] List of list

Below is the list of WikProject CCM tasks.

  • Start adding references and citations to CCM articles.

[edit] Project Directory

Hello. The WikiProject Council is currently in the process of developing a master directory of the existing WikiProjects to replace and update the existing Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory. These WikiProjects are of vital importance in helping wikipedia achieve its goal of becoming truly encyclopedic. Please review the following pages:

  • User:Badbilltucker/Culture Directory,
  • User:Badbilltucker/Culture Directory 2,
  • User:Badbilltucker/Philosophy and religion Directory,
  • User:Badbilltucker/Sports Directory,
  • User:Badbilltucker/Geographical Directory,
  • User:Badbilltucker/Geographical Directory/United States, (note: This page will be retitled to more accurately reflect its contents)
  • User:Badbilltucker/History and society directory, and
  • User:Badbilltucker/Science directory

and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope to have the existing directory replaced by the updated and corrected version of the directory above by November 1. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.

Sorry if you tried to update it before, and the corrections were gone. I have now put the new draft in the old directory pages, so the links should work better. My apologies for any confusion this may have caused you. B2T2 00:21, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Peer Review of The W's

The W's is going through the Wikipedia:Peer review process. Please leave comments and suggestions at Wikipedia:Peer review/The W's. Dan, the CowMan 20:51, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] {{WPBiography}}

Please use {{WPBiography}} on the talk pages of articles about people. This is important because this template comes with an important notice about the Wikipedia policy related to Biographies of living persons and can be quite helpful because it also provides a parameter for rating the quality of the article and for requesting that a template be added to the article. A list of the parameters, and a brief description of them can be found at Template:WPBiography#Usage. --Tim4christ17 talk 01:27, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Need help from this wikiproject

Hello. I generally stay away from music articles on Wikipedia, but I've gotten myself involved with an article about a CCM band from Canada that I am absolutely convinced meets Wikipedia's notablility guidelines. However, the article about that band has been repeatedly deleted as non-notable. I had an admin move it to my userspace where the article's creator and I have been working on it. I'd like it to be in as good a shape as possible before I take it to deletion review, but I don't want to let the AFD lie in its grave for too long, especially since the closing admin currently has several other contested decisions at DRV.

I was wondering if someone from this wikiproject who is familiar with the Canadian Contemporary Christian Music scene would take a look at User:ONUnicorn/Critical Mass and give us a hand. Thanks. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs) 20:50, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
