Most articles within Category:Technology and its sub-categories are within our scope. There are several other projects with similar scopes, which we hope to work closely with.
Goals
To improve Wikipedia's coverage of technology by creating, expanding, and maintaining such articles.
To provide guidelines and recommendations for articles that describe all aspects of technology.
To serve as the central point of discussion for issues related to technology in Wikipedia.
WikiProject Technology has developed several structural features to help manage our work.
Coordinators are responsible for maintaining the administrative aspects of the project.
Departments host work on several specialized tasks, including article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, and offline publication.
Task forces are more informal groups for collaboration on specific topics within history.
The entire subject and Wikipedia's coverage of it is intended to be summarized in the Outline of technology and its branch outlines. These are in turn part of Wikipedia's outline system which is one of Wikipedia's main contents systems. If Wikipedia has an article or article section about those topics, please add links to them. Is the structure of the outline (sections and indents) representative of the subject? Does the outline help understand the relationships between the topics presented in the best way possible?
The outline is a taxonomy of the subject, and also serves as a table of contents and navigation aid to browse Wikipedia's articles (and article sections) about the subject.
It is also a useful tool for the WikiProject to analyze, plan, develop, and revise technology-related material. It is a hub from which to organize technological topics.
It was built as a "reverse outline", a structural model of an existing work, which in addition to being a summary of the work, can reveal the gaps and other weaknesses for revision purposes.
Smog tower - Needs images, information on the technologies used and effectiveness evaluation
Metal Detector - Numerous issues, lack of information on modern applications (eg security screening), and a talk page plagued by inactivity and forum-like discussion.
Organization
Coordinators
The project coordinators are generally responsible for maintaining all of the procedural and administrative aspects of the project and serve as the designated points-of-contact for procedural issues. They are not, however, endowed with any special executive powers.
The Collaboration department serves to improve articles that have been assessed by the assessment department by assigning large groups of editors to improve those articles. Help can be requested for an article you are working on or you have found abandoned. A list of open tasks can also be found here
The Sources department helps to find and evaluate reliable sources on technology topics, including by maintaining a custom search engine to make it easier to find and expand technology articles.
