Welcome to the Notable Ceramists Project Page, being complied by students of the senior Ceramics studios at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University (NSCAD University). Of course, everyone is welcome to contribute, particularly if you work/study/have expertise in Ceramics!

This project aims to create Wikipedia entries for significant artists working in Ceramics. A preliminary list has been compiled below. If the link is coloured red, then no page exists for the artist. Some artists have the notation (stub) next to their name: a page exists, but needs fleshing out.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. (If you are a NSCAD Ceramics student, please just drop by in person and see me for help.)

[edit] Categorization

I suggest assigning the pages you create to a category, such as:

Ceramists: The broadest category (place [[Category:Ceramists]] at the end of your page)
Potter: General category for ceramists who primarily create functional ware (use [[Potters]])
American Potter: Country-specific category for potters (use [[Category:American Potters]])
British Potters: (use [[Category:British Potters]])
Canadian Potters: (use [[Category:Canadian Potters]])
Japanese Potters: (use [[Category:Japanese Potters]] [[Category:Inactive WikiProjects]] [[Category:Inactive WikiProjects]])
