Goals
  • To provide guidelines and recommendations for articles that describe all aspects of Taxation.
  • To improve Wikipedia's coverage of Taxation by creating, expanding, and maintaining such articles.
  • To serve as the central point of discussion for issues related to Taxation articles in Wikipedia.

The broad objective of the Taxation Wikiproject is to expand the coverage and content of articles related to taxes. More specifically, we need to have more taxation related Good articles and Featured articles.

Scope

Departments

Assessment

The assessment department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's taxation articles. The article ratings are used within the project itself to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.

The ratings are done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the {{WikiProject Taxation}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in a set of categories that serves as the basis for an automatically generated worklist.

Collaboration

The project's Collaboration of the Month seeks to identify particular articles that would benefit from a significant collaborative effort. Every month, a single article is selected as the focus, and the project attempts to improve it, potentially to featured article standards. The current collaboration article is Tax, tariff and trade.

Any taxation articles (except for current featured articles and featured article candidates) are eligible, and everyone is invited to nominate articles.

Peer review

The peer review department conducts peer reviews of articles on request; this helps to obtain ideas for further improvement by having contributors who may not have previously worked on particular articles examine them. Project members are invited to submit articles to the department in lieu of using the generic peer review process.

Translation

The translation department of the Taxation WikiProject aims to utilize high-quality non-English material related to taxation for the goals of the project. This includes both translating articles from and to other-language Wikipedias as well as assisting contributors with non-English sources.
