Goals and scope of WikiProject Engineering
[edit]Goals
[edit]- Improving Wikipedia's coverage of engineering by creating, expanding, and maintaining such articles.
- Providing guidelines and recommendations for articles within the scope of engineering.
- Serving as a point of discussions for issues related to engineering in general in Wikipedia.
- Helping to coordinate the work of related WikiProjects.
Scope
[edit]This project generally considers any article related to engineering to be within its scope. See branches of engineering and categorization for an outline of engineering in general.
Articles tagged with this WikiProject are listed in the category WikiProject engineering articles.
Resources and tools
[edit]- Main tool page: toolhub.wikimedia.org

A list of articles needing cleanup associated with this project is available. See also the tool's wiki page and the index of WikiProjects.
Help
[edit]New articles
[edit]New articles with an interesting or unusual fact, that are at least over 1,000 characters, don't have any dispute templates on them, and cite their sources, should be suggested for the Did you know? box on the Wikipedia Main Page.
Request articles at Wikipedia:Requested articles.
Peer review
[edit]Our peer review page conducts peer review of articles on request. The primary objective is to encourage better articles by having contributors who may not have worked on articles to examine them and provide ideas for further improvement.
The peer review process is flexible and can deal with articles of any quality.
Requested images
[edit]In the category requested images are articles with missing graphics and pictures. You're welcome to upload those images when available under a free license.
Assessment
[edit]The assessment page focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's engineering articles.
Assessments are performed via parameters in the {{Engineering}} project banner posted to an article's talk page.
Ratings go from stub over start to C and when almost perfect to B. Articles with a B rating can be nominated as good articles or featured articles. Both of those are not handled in this WikiProject.
Assessment for engineering articles can be requested on Wikipedia:WikiProject Engineering/Assessment#Requesting an assessment.
Articles in need of attention can be found in the category engineering articles needing attention.
Further questions
[edit]Add further requests and questions to the WikiProject talk page.
