Workgroups are no longer used for group communications, but they still are used to group articles into fields of interest. Each article is assigned to 1-3 Workgroups via the article's Metadata.

The purpose of this Literature Workgroup is to co-ordinate and organise the work on, and improvement of, articles on Literature. If you'd like to join as an Author, please add yourself to Category:Literature Authors, introduce yourself on the Literature Workgroup Forum and start improving articles. If you think you have the expertise to be an Editor, take a look at the instructions on how to become an editor and then add yourself to Category: Literature Editors.

Literature Core Articles

These are the highest priority articles items for the Literature Workgroup, though they have not yet been finalized by a Workgroup editor. The listings are in rpl format, which not only displays the definition, but, if there is an article present (blue link), will give an indication of the level of development of the article (the little bar graph just to the left of the article name). If the article name is in black (also a link), the link points to a lemma article. Such lemma articles consist only of the bare definition - the article has yet to be written, and hence no bar graph indicating level of completeness is indicated for such articles.
