Scope and Goals

We cover anything related to edit requests on the English Language Wikipedia

Currently, making edit requests is a technical process, something not ideal for new users, which are often the ones creating edit requests. Additionally, there is inconsistency in how edit requests are reviewed and under what circumstances an edit request should be declined. Our WikiProject aims to clear up these points of confusion and in general make the process of writing an edit request as easy as possible.

  • Reform the process of edit requests
  • Assist in making edit requests
  • Assist in responding to edit requests
