The Iraq WikiProject is a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to Iraq.

Our goals
  • To improve Wikipedia's coverage of Iraq by creating, expanding, and maintaining such articles.
  • To provide guidelines and recommendations for articles that describe all aspects of Iraq.
  • To help new Iraqi editors learn the ropes of Wikipedia.
  • To serve as the central point of discussion for issues related to Iraq in Wikipedia.
Our scope
The Iraq Wikiproject generally considers any article related to Iraq as a a valid topic.


[edit] Departments

[edit] Assessment

The Assessment department will focus on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's Iraq related articles. This will aid us in recognising excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.

[edit] Collaboration

The Iraq Collaboration of the Fortnight seeks to identify particular articles that would benefit from a significant collaborative effort. Every fortnight, a single article is selected as the focus, and the project attempts to improve it.

Any articles dealing with some aspect of Iraq are eligible, and everyone is invited to nominate articles and help improve it.

[edit] Outreach

The outreach department acts as the project's central point of coordination for recruiting new members and maintaining the interest of current participants. We aim to invite new Wikipedia contributors who recently edited a Iraq related article to join the project.

[edit] Photography

The photography department aims to provide a collection of high-quality photographs and images for use in Iraq articles. These may be self-taken or obtained with permission from online sources.
