Shortcuts

This project looks at topics relating to ecology.

Scope

Articles relating to the study of species in a natural environment.

For articles and categories on the effect of humans on the environment see Wikipedia:WikiProject Environment.

Topics

Purpose

  1. The management of Wikipedia pages relating to ecology
  2. Aid Wikipedia in becoming a useful and reliable source of information for these topics
  3. Promotion of the availability of these topics on Wikipedia,
  4. Encouragement of others to use and build pages on these topics
  5. Promote an awareness of the natural world

Things you can do (Open Tasks)

WikiProject

  • Contribute to the discussion to guide the direction and process of this project, or ask questions
  • Add more tasks to these lists
  • Add your name to the list of participants

Assessment

A project template has been created which will allow us to assess articles. Type {{Ecology}} on talk pages to use it.

Pages needing attention

Wikipedia:Pages needing attention listings are no longer being updated. For by-topic listings of articles that need attention, see:

To flag an article for attention, add a cleanup template to the article or talk page. See Wikipedia:Template index/Cleanup for a listing. All previously listed articles have either been fixed or tagged.

See also the page history of Wikipedia:Votes for rewrite which ran from May 2002-June 2003 then was redirected to here.

Articles nominated for deletion

Further information: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ecology

Scientific Peer Review

Peer review at this project is no longer active and scientific articles should be directed to the general Wikipedia peer review. Reviews of articles that were completed are archived here.

Comments

As noted at Talk:Environmental chemistry please do any work in consensus with other editors. Removing large sections leaving bare headings is not the right way to proceed.  Velella  Velella Talk   08:50, 12 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A refereed journal on Wikiversity

I think I posted this on an archived discussion and will look for a better place to post--Guy vandegrift (talk) 09:49, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

According to this survey, the prime disincentive against making scholarly contributions to Wikipedia is that it will not advance careers. Wikiversity:First Journal of Science will be a peer-reviewed journal that should alleviate this problem for recent college graduates who are not expected to have published in the established scholarly journals.

The word "First" in the title is intended to suggest that we need more journals like this. The Wikiversity:First Journal of Science was patterned after the Wikiversity Journal of Medicine, but will have a somewhat more informal flavor, consistent with this new journal's intent to focus on teaching at the undergraduate college level. Wikiversity:First Journal of Science will attribute with bylines that list usernames only, in contrast with the use of real names by the Wikiversity Journal of Medicine

Another unique feature of Wikiversity:First Journal of Science is that edited versions of Wikipedia articles are welcome, and are presented as Wikipedia articles on the Wikiversity journal via permalinks to the history of Wikipedia articles. This is currently accomplished in a rather awkward fashion, by moving the Wikipedia article into the editor's user space, and after proper attribution, deleting all that extraneous prose that Wikipedia articles tend to acquire. An example of this shown in one of the three "pseudo-articles" that were used to create a mockup issue. Of the three "pseudo-articles" in this mockup, I consider only one to be suitable for publication. It is Wikipedia's Introduction to quantum mechanics. Note how the logo was inserted into the "pseudo-accepted" version without permission of the article's current editors. In other words, all of Wikipedia's 5 million articles are candidates for publication in this journal, and in a manner of speaking, have already effectively submitted their manuscripts to Wikiversity:First Journal of Science for review--Guy vandegrift (talk) 05:24, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Templates

  • Template:Biological interaction-footer — {{Biological interaction-footer}}
    A navigational template to be affixed to the bottom of selected articles.
  • Template:Ecology — {{Ecology}}
    This is meant to be affixed to the talk page of articles that fall within the scope of this WikiProject.

Missing articles

Please add any articles here, including missing articles linked from any of the topics or categories above. The goal is to have no broken links from articles on sustainability, environment, or ecology.

This list is indiscriminate. If there are sepecific items on this list you are interested in, add them to the approriate area in Requested articles (probably /science)

Other missing articles
