[edit] Scope

This WikiProject seeks to start small(ish) by focusing on the colors themselves and the article for color. We will then set our sights big and try to tackle the other color-related articles!

[edit] Goals

  1. Bring Color article to FA
  2. Organize colors into "major color" categories with fully fleshed out (no pun intended) articles
  3. Discover and improve all color-related articles (Category:Color, Web colors, X11 color names)
  4. Unify the presentation of all color articles and, where possible, all color-related articles
  5. Assist other projects with color advice as needed

  4. Strict limits on swatches.
  5. Pre-vetting of acceptable color sources.
  6. Excluding proprietary color spaces.
