Community

I went ahead and took the liberty of starting Category:Community in accordance with the Wikipedia:Be bold guideline. I feel that this action is responsible and logical. I placed Category:Sociology on the new category page to make it a subcategory of sociology. In turn, I'm placing Category:Community building under the new community category. See Wikipedia:Categorization for the guidelines I used.

All this is to facilitate the building and maintenance of Portal:Community (not to be confused with the Wikipedia:Community Portal) which is supposed (not imposed) to be a comprehensive reference section about community and community-related topics.

As far as Community building within m:The Wikipedia Community goes, much has been done and said. The current Community Portal, Village pump and the Meta-Wikipedia are sufficient vehicles for Wikipedia internal processes. The Wikipedia:WikiProject_Community is an effort to at least pull community-related articles and topics into a centralized reference for the reading public through our new Portal. Please feel free to join the project and help build Portal:Community, edit articles, re-categorize things and join discussions as you see fit. See Community of practice.

If you have a passion and knack for building community as I do, please take a look at Wikipedia:Esperanza if you haven't already. Thanks for your participation. -- CQ 22:58, 29 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
