Wikipedia:WikiProject Germany/Reference and navigation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Categorization (talk): refine and maintain categorization of Germany-related articles.
  • Refine and maintain the List of basic Germany topics, a key guide on Wikipedia to Germany as a subject. It serves as a table of contents, summary, and topic outline of coverage on the country Germany and is the most useful tool on Wikipedia for exploring and understanding fundamental material about Germany (and how it fits together) on Wikipedia. Its purpose is an important one: it simply enables readers to see at a glance how the subject of Germany is broken down, what the component topics are, and how they relate to each other - that is, how information on Germany is organized (here, and in the world-at-large). It is a site map and outline of knowledge that demystifies the subject known as "Germany". Because of its central role in the presentation of Wikipedia's coverage of this subject, it is very important to develop and maintain it to the highest level of quality: to help readers improve their conceptual awareness and understanding of Germany as well as find their way around this subject on Wikipedia. For examples of other pages in this set, see List of basic France topics, List of basic Thailand topics, List of basic Japan topics, List of basic Taiwan topics, and List of basic Iceland topics, all of which are currently completed to a higher level of quality than this page. In other words, it's getting its ass kicked: the List of basic Germany topics is incomplete, needs your editing contributions, and is especially in need of maps and pictures!
