[edit] Traditionalism task force

Hi! I've noticed that you're very active at creating and maintaining pages on traditionalist authors. Say: would you be interested in joining a "Traditionalism task force" if one were mounted? It could go under the umbrella of either the WikiProject Philosophy or the WikiProject Religion (I myself think it going under the Philosophy one is better, as all traditionalists, from Guénon onwards, deal primarily with philosophical matters and only secondarily with specific religious subjects).

The practical benefit would be allowing for a better organization of efforts concerning things such as: obtaining free photos to add to the biographies; standardizing biography formatting; prioritizing the (huge) list of articles that should be written, specially non-biographical ones; finding articles that would benefit from some good Traditionalist-based criticisms, as I did in the Spiritism one; and so on and so forth.

What do you think? -- alexgieg (talk) 02:40, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for replying. Since we're in agreement, later today or tomorrow I'll place a proposal on WP Philosophy for a task force to be formed. This could take some days, and once it's formed we can start organizing the work around it. But nothing prevents us from doing what we're already doing until then.

As for what I'm good at, I think currently it's more editing stuff: categorization, formatting clean up, reorganizing texts around some standard, adding infoboxes, these things. I'm still in the very start of my traditionalist studies, so I don't have much on what to base full fledged articles. On the other hand, this might actually be a good thing, as I could write articles on specific books by Guénon etc. as I went about reading them. In fact, I think I'll do just that. :-) -- alexgieg (talk) 17:17, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
