Wikipedia:WikiProject Fire Protection

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to fire protection systems. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject and Wikipedia:WikiProject/Best practices.

Adopt an article

[edit]

Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.

Stub templates

[edit]

This project has no dedicated stub template, however, the following are recommended:

  • {{company-stub}} for fire protection manufacturers
  • {{Tool-stub}} for other articles

These stub templates are not perfect fits, but perhaps in the future we will be able to get our own stub template.
