Wikipedia:WikiProject Aztec/Goals
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The primary motivation in establishing this WikiProject is to provide interested editors with a central forum to discuss issues and ideas for improvement, and avoid having to disperse such discussion across multiple talk pages (note, however, that discussion on relevant talk pages is of course still encouraged, particularly where major changes are being considered; the Project's workspace is intended to complement, and not replace, editor best practices).
With this in mind, the proposed goals of this WikiProject may be stated as follows:
- improve and maintain Aztec-related articles: fact checking, prose checking, expanding, citation and referencing, NPOVing, bringing up to Good article or Featured article status;
- expand wikipedia coverage of Aztec-related articles: identify gaps, check for completeness of coverage, start new articles, expand entries on little-known or neglected, but still notable, subjects;
- apply sensible organisational structure to articles: Within articles, similar articles can have a similar structure, coverage and presentation. Across articles, maintaining categories, lists and links so related articles are easier to locate;
- ensure consistency of information and terminology across articles: where similar facts and data are cited or mentioned in several different articles, they should as far as possible be consistent and not contradict. Terminology and the orthography used for names and places should be consistently applied;
- propose and establish guidelines for editing: produce materials to assist others in understanding any guidelines or standards;
- develop tools and resources for others to use in article production: such as, templates, navboxes, infoboxes, 'what to include' checklists, diagrams, base maps, image catalogues, useful and commonly used references;
- facilitate coordination and collaboration: between Projects and editors, establish priorities, where possible avoid duplication of effort, apply WP:AGF, WP:CIVIL, WP:CON, WP:NPA, and others.
