Wikipedia:WikiProject Socialism

Hello there! Some Wikipedians have formed a Project to better organize information in articles related to the socialist movement and history. It attempts to coordinate collaborative writing efforts, organize and create standards for making good articles. It endeavours to create a good reference for socialism in un-bias terms. If you want to join, simply help out and add your name to the Participants. Scope WikiProject Socialism seeks to improve Wikipedia's articles on all aspects of socialism. This includes coverage of the different socialist philosophies and alternatives, as well as socialist political action, parties and candidates worldwide. It also seeks to improve wikipedia articles on political and economic subjects that are sorely lacking in analysis of how government policies negatively effect society, using reliably sourced material from socialist-oriented academics and experts, as well as relevant material published in mainstream sources. Tasks Please refer to the talk page for discussions regarding major projects. Click here and here for a list of recent changes to Socialist-related pages. Achieve better categorization of socialist-related articles Get more socialist-related articles to GA and FA status Get reliable sources were needed on any socialist related article Create a "Socialist Reliable Sources" page similar to this one or this one.
