Welcome to the Paintball WikiProject! We are a group of editors who have come together to cooperatively improve Wikipedia's coverage of the sport of paintball. Please feel free to join. If you have any questions, you can contact the Project's assistant coordinator, Maximilli, at his talk page.
Goals
The goals of WikiProject Paintball are simple. In general, they are...
- To improve the quality of the articles pertaining to paintball by creating, maintaining, expanding and polishing them;
- To centralize the efforts of paintballing Wikipedians to improve the category;
- To create an information base and reference base with which interested Wikipedians may maintain, create or improve paintball-related articles;
- To create a central paintball image, video and audio base with which interested Wikipedians may utilize the full resources of paintball multimedia to improve paintball articles;
- And finally, to exist as the focal point of paintball in Wikipedia as a whole.
Scope
WikiProject Paintball's scope is also simple - Wikipedia's category of paintball, and any other articles which may mention it.
Flagship articles
Currently, there are two articles which are of good enough quality to be considered flagship articles. These are...
However, there are many more articles in the category that are on the rise. The administration expects a number of articles to become flagship articles in short order.
Tasks
Please update this list as tasks are completed or required. This list will be monitored for errors.
Project focus
The current project focus is to bring the Paintball article up to FA status. Please see the discussion on its talk page. Listed below are a number of tasks which members have felt to be beneficial toward that cause.
- The images of the Paintball article need to be cleaned up. Ideally, only those images which are exemplary and are excellent illustrations of the sport should be included. New images should follow that guideline.
General tasks
- Articles
- The article Paintball tank could use a lot of cleanup. Please post on the article's talk page the things which you are currently working on so other members know to work on something else.
- The Paintball strategy article is in need of some basic cleanup.
- Article requests
- The speedball article needs to become more independent, and less about how it compares to woodsball.
- Please coordinate with the gun article department to create articles on popular paintball markers. Discuss on the talk page what articles should be included. A vote will be taken to determine the decision. Remember to include '[[Category:Paintball markers]]' on the new pages to automatically categorize them to the new paintball marker subcategory.
- Player position articles for woodsball and scenarioball player positions are needed. One should follow the example given by the article Paintball marksman.
- Please expand the Spyder Victor II article.
- Please expand the Inline Blowback article.
- Paintball article requests
- Image requests
Images are requested on the following topics:
- paintball guns
- player positions
- paintball combat (players in active games)
- internal workings of various paintball gun mechanisms
Please post all multimedia on the appropriate media pages. Image database 01
- Video requests
Videos are requested on the following topics:
- paintball combat
- paintball guns firing
- players clearly exercising their positions (i.e. a heavy weapons specialist firing a rocket launcher, a scout taking point, a marksman longballing an enemy position, et cetera). Please send these clips to Maximilli via e-mail at <dogsofwarpaintballplatoon@gmail.com> or the Video department head for review.
Please post all multimedia on the appropriate media pages.
- Other tasks and requests
Templates are required...
- for this page's 'infobox'
- for paintball stubs
- the WikiProject 'scope' template
