GuildWiki:Projects

From GuildWiki

Projects are focused efforts to improve or maintain a specific section of the GuildWiki. You do not need to be member of a project to work on the GuildWiki, nor are project members required to meet any expectations—projects are simply organizational tools to bring order to an otherwise chaotic medium.

[edit] Creating a project

Anybody can create a project—just make a new article in the GuildWiki namespace titled with the name of your project. For instance, if you wanted to make a project to maintain mesmer skills, you would make the article GuildWiki:Mesmer skills project.

Projects should all include the following sections (preferably in this order):

• Description of project (at top of the page with no section header)
• Participants
• Related projects (if applicable; GuildWiki:Mesmer skills project would list GuildWiki:Monk skills project as related)
• Parent projects (if applicable; GuildWiki:Mesmer skills project would list GuildWiki:Skills project as its parent)
• Child projects (if applicable; GuildWiki:Skills project would list GuildWiki:Mesmer skills project as its child)

Any other information considered helpful for the project can be listed below these sections. The following information is typical:

• A stub template specific to articles that fall under the project
• Links to relevant style and formatting guidelines
• To-do lists
• Templates that might be useful to editors contributing to the project
• A userbox for members of the project

GuildWiki projects should be added to Category:Community projects.
