Of course, every entry on Wikipedia deserves attention. But some entries deserve tender loving attention.
If you come across a page that you think needs a lot of work, but have no idea how to approach it, list it here so that others can find it.
This page is very similar to the other pages like: Requested articles, Current events. However it is more utilitarian than those pages, being intended for the editorial community alone.
Articles that have good information, but need work for some reason
- Imprecise language - no longer in first person, but still needs work
- Alchemy - a great article, but written in an academic essay style
- poets - not only are the page titles messed up, very possibly the page itself should be redirected to listing of poets
- Black Sabbath - from the article: and someone else can write 1979 to date
- Military History - should probably be moved to Military history. Also this article is badly organized, but I don't know how to fix it.
- Asynchronous Transfer Mode - this article is nearly ready but needs final editing and checking
- Wends- general re-write and information needs
- Sigismund I Jagiello -- at present, this is just bad prosopography. Needs an infusion of context and coherence
- Cracow - has a lot of good info, but also has some claims that fall outside the NPOV.
- Symbionese Liberation Army - formation of group is there, and a link to Kathleen Soliah, but the middle is missing
- Irian Jaya - requires merging and NPOVing
- Martin Luther King Jr. - much more needs to be written, in more depth
- Holocene extinction event - more species are needed, and some help with NPOV, since I think the whole thing is tree-hugger bogosity
- Religious aspects of marriage - Larry wanted this article, but I doubt he wanted it quite like this. (Not so bad now that the original has been replaced.)
- Miyuki - may have violated copyright.
- Balloon - could use some more examples.
- PDP-11 - huh? this needs to be more easily understood
- Sugarhill Gang - needs reorganization
- Kashmir - long on bathic emotion, short on facts
- Isoroku Yamamoto - unfinished
- Fascism - needs watching for NPOV
- Thirteen years war - needs editing and clarification
Articles that seem to be nothing more than definitions
Wikipedia is not a dictionary, and an article which simply defines a word is useless. Sometimes, those articles can turn into bona fide encyclopedic treatments of a topic; sometimes they should just be deleted.
- organization -- trade organization -- hierarchy member -- immediate superior -- immediate subordinate -- subordinate -- rooted hierarchy -- hierarchical tree structure -- rooted hierarchical tree structure -- containment hierarchy (See talk)
See also Wikipedia utilities/find or fix a stub.
= Articles of dubious merit, accuracy and/or validity
- Masculism (NPOV problems) --
- Zarnowiec - translation problems + soem doubts about legality (need comment from someone who knows law)
