[edit] About us

WikiProject Pharmacology coordinates the development of Wikipedia articles relating to drugs and pharmacology.

[edit] Announcements

[edit] Goals

  • Categorize and tag all articles within the scope of WikiProject Pharmacology.
    • Insert {{WikiProject Pharmacology|class=|importance=}} on every Pharmacology-related article's talk page you can find.
  • Assess the quality and importance of each article as it relates to this project.
  • Create msg boxes for Drug and each category (the drug msg-box will contain all categories, and specific categories' msg-boxes will contain links to actual articles of specific drugs, with possible sub-categorization).
  • Remove inconsistencies in related articles and expand all stubs under the scope of the project.

[edit] How you can help

Looking for something to do?

[edit] Improve articles

[edit] Categorize the many Pharmacology-related articles

  • Label articles of interest to the project by putting the {{WikiProject Pharmacology}} template on the talk pages of all articles of interest to pharmacy and pharmacology.
  • Categories:
  • Categorize drug articles by adding them to the appropriate categories.

[edit] Direct our focus

  • Join in discussing proposals, so that we can take our ideas off the drawing board and put them into action. Go there, choose a proposal, read it and add your two cents!
  • The Pharmacology Portal always needs to be maintained!

[edit] Improve the project itself

  • Help to develop the Drugbox and drug navigational templates. Drug information boxes can be included in each Wikipedia article about a particular drug.
  • Assist in public relations and outreach by recruiting editors interested in pharmacology to contribute to Wikipedia.
