WP:Hornbook -- a new law-related task force for the J.D. curriculum

Hi Talk2chun,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

Each casebook will have a subpage.

Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.

I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.

2. If you're a law student,

Email http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.

(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)

3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Thank you

Hi @Talk2chun: thank you for your kind response to Shobit.dalal, and my apologies for my inadequate reponse just above. I am new to the teahouse and like the positive vibes. I'll be trying to help editors as best I can, hopefully a few times a week... and appreciate your example. Let me know if I can improve! Thanks again, -Darouet (talk) 19:54, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Darouet: thank you kindly for your message. I love the positive vibe at the Teahouse as well, which is why I love trying to answer as many questions as I can. Your response was, in my opinion, in no way inadequate. In fact, you rightly pointed to WP:BLPN as another avenue, which I completely missed. I must admit that I myself am a relative newbie, with only around 100 edits under my belt. I think your assistance at the Teahouse, especially given your experience as an editor, would benefit new editors (like me) greatly, and I would love to see you around there more often.--talk2Chun^{(talk) (contributions)} 22:10, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
