Template:WikiProject Technology sidebar
Welcome to the Technology WikiProject on the English Wikipedia! We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to technology. If you would like to join us, please feel free to add your name to the list of project members
- Goals
-
- To improve Wikipedia's coverage of technology by creating, expanding, and maintaining such articles.
- To provide guidelines and recommendations for articles that describe all aspects of technology.
- To serve as the central point of discussion for issues related to technology in Wikipedia.
- To maintain the technology portal and its sub-portals
- To answer queries about technology on the reference desk, especially the computing reference desk.
- Scope
- Most articles within Category:Technology and its sub-categories are within our scope. There are several other projects with similar scopes who we hope to work closely with.
- Structure
- WikiProject Technology has developed several structural features to help manage our work
- Coordinators are responsible for maintaining the administrative aspects of the project
- Departments host work on several specialized tasks, including article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, and offline publication.
- Task forces are more informal groups for collaboration on specific topics within history.

Work
Vital articles
These articles need to gain featured status as soon as possible:
- Technology (Comparison: Mathematics)
- List of basic technology topics (Comparison: List of basic geography topics)
- List of technology topics (Comparison: List of biology topics)
- Glossary of technology topics (Comparison: Glossary of philosophical isms)
- Technology index/List of technology articles (Comparison: List of mathematics articles)
Opentasks
Feel free to add any articles needing improvement you come across here:
- Draft:WAICY
- Technology - Needs cleanup
- Tank - Needs reorganising, good though
- Category:Wikipedia requested photographs of technology
- Agitated Nutsche Filter - has multiple maintenance tags (I hope this is the correct place to find an expert to sort this article out, thanks).
- HTTP handler - very short
- Cognitive computing
- neuromorphic computing
- Smog tower - Needs images, information on the technologies used and effectiveness evaluation
- Draft:Orbit Fab - very short, needs expansion
- Metal Detector - Numerous issues, lack of information on modern applications (eg security screening), and a talk page plagued by inactivity and forum-like discussion.
Organisation
Coordinators
The project coordinators are generally responsible for maintaining all of the procedural and administrative aspects of the project, and serve as the designated points-of-contact for procedural issues. They are not, however, endowed with any special executive powers.
Departments
Assessment
The Assessment department finds historical articles and rates them on the Quality scale.
Collaboration
The Collaboration department serves to improve articles that have been assessed by the assessment department by assigning large groups of editors to improve those articles. Help can be requested for an article you are working on or youhave found abandoned. A list of opentasks can also be found here
Review
The Review department carries out peer reviews on historical articles and nominates articles for good and featured status. It also carries out A-Class reviews on articles within our scope.
Outreach
The Outreach department acts as a central location for various member outreach work, including project newsletters, recruitment and welcoming banners, and other related initiatives.
