Scope
editHere are the very general steps this project plans to take to achieve its purpose:
- Step 1: Identify all Punk music and Punk culture related articles.
- Step 2: Tag all articles properly and organize them in proper categories.
- Step 3: Expand stub articles.
- Step 4: Do minor edits and improvements to all articles.
- Step 5: Try to get all articles to Featured status.
Policy
editHere are some very broad project policy we should try to maintain:
- Everyone is welcome to voice their opinion without being put down.
- Everyone is welcome to edit any of the WikiProjects pages. This is Wikipedia afterall.
- If you are viewing/editing an article regarding a subject that's dear to you please maintain a neutral point of view and do not get upset if the article provides popular criticism of the subject.
- Similar as above, please try to follow wikipedian policy. Wikipedian Help has many pages to help you understand rights from wrongs.
