WikiProject Limnology and Oceanography is a group of editors who aim to improve the reliability and accuracy of Wikipedia pages relating to the study of inland waters and marine environments. If you would like to contribute, please add yourself as a participant in the project, inquire on the talk page, and see the to-do list, below.

Scope[edit]

This WikiProject is a collaboration to improve articles relating to inland waters and marine environments, including the study of lakes, ponds, reservoirs, streams, rivers, wetlands, groundwater, estuaries, and oceans. We strive for a diverse editor base and aquatic science topics to help combat common biases in Wikipedia.

Goals[edit]

Improve articles within the scope of the project through verifiable and objective editing.

Article quality goals

10 featured articles: 30% complete
30 good articles: 70% complete

Grants[edit]

Our WikiMedia-funded pilot program will foster a natural synergy among scientists, educators, and motivated learners that will increase quality aquatic-related information on Wikipedia. The pilot program is designed to train students to distill primary resources and add aquatic-related content to Wikipedia, an exercise that will improve writing skills and enhance engagement with classroom subject matter. The program will function similarly to a scientific journal, where a subject matter editor (coordinator) finds reviewers (professional aquatic scientists from WP L&O) to help improve content that was contributed by the authors (students participating in our pilot program). We aim to pilot this in 20 undergraduate classrooms and we are still looking for interested instructors - reach out to Jayzlimno if interested.

Review and assessment[edit]

Assessment[edit]

Main page: Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment

Adopted from WikiProject Molecular and Cell Biology statistics page.

The standard system on wikipedia is for each article to be assigned two grades: one for completeness and another for significance. These grades as assigned to articles by adding and/or updating the {{Wikiproject Limnology and Oceanography|class= |importance= }} template on that article's talk page. If you have improved an article, you may adjust the entry in the template yourself, or you may simply put a remark in the talk page that improvements have been done.
