Goals

edit

This taskforce aims to expand and improve articles regarding the individuals who have contributed to paleontology and better document their contributions, as well as fill in red links to scientists on other pages associated with WikiProject Paleontology.

Requested Articles

edit

Please review Wikipedia's notability requirements for scholars before requesting or creating articles. In short, the subject must have made major contributions to their field, as recognized by others. Simply publishing articles or naming species may not be sufficient to establish notability, and there may not be enough material to write a satisfying, complete biographical article.
