 | This WikiProject is defunct. Consider looking for related projects such as WikiProject Wikipedia for help or ask at the Teahouse. If you feel this project may be worth reviving, please discuss with related projects first. Feel free to change this tag if the parameters were changed in error. All discussions, development, maintenance of, and other related matters concerning the Manual of Style (MoS) are conducted exclusively on the respective talk pages of individual MoS guidelines. This project was initially established with the intention of creating an MoS noticeboard. However, the proposals for such a noticeboard have either been declined or not reached consensus on the Village Pump, as MoS already functions as the designated noticeboard for MoS-related discussions. |
WikiProject Manual of Style is was a project whose mission is to coordinate the multiple pages which form the Manual of Style guidelines. The content of those pages is not determined here, but principally at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style.
Scope
edit| Manual of Style (MoS) |
|---|
The Wikipedia Manual of Style is a key guideline for writing Wikipedia articles. Its provisions are now spread across many different pages, and coordinating it has become a challenging task. The purpose of this WikiProject is to address this challenge.
Goals
- To promote the coordination and rationalisation of the Manual of Style pages, in particular by identifying discrepancies between them, overlap in their scopes, and improvements that can be made to their structure and wording.
- To develop guidelines for the acceptance of new pages into the Manual of Style, and to serve as a forum where consensus may be gained for such acceptance.
- To provide a forum to discuss issues that involve more than one Manual of Style page, and other issues related to the Manual of Style and naming conventions, including their role and status in Wikipedia.
This WikiProject aims to be as inclusive as possible: anyone can be involved, and all contributions are welcome. It is important that the WikiProject reflect the consensus of editors of all Manual of Style pages. Where editors at different pages disagree, the project aims to facilitate discussion rather than impose solutions. This page is a project, not a guideline, and so it can only help to organise communication between editors; it cannot change guidelines.
