CZ:Library and Information Science Workgroup

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.

Library and Information Science workgroup tasks

Suggestions for this page as recommended by Larry Sanger Still to do: (i) a welcome message aimed at new editors in your area, and perhaps (ii) a link to a version of Citizendium_Pilot:Recruitment_Letter adapted for your discipline. And whatever else seems helpful! (Wiki hackers may notice that several of the above items can be put into a template. We might want to use navigational templates...have at it...)

How you can help

Tasks outlined by Larry Sanger Launch list of top articles Right now, there is a partial list of high priority articles (see below). We need to transfer that into a different form, i.e., by placing "Category:Library and Information Workgroup (Top)" at the bottom of articles that are regarded as "high priority" for an area. Note, don't also mark an article you're tagging as "live" unless you've actually worked on it! Launch workgroup tagging of articles In addition to tagging top articles, whether live or not, we also need to tag live articles according to their likely managing workgroup. So, for instance, one might go to "Category:CZ_Live" and at the bottom of the "xyz" article put "[[Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup]]". This means that we think the biology workgroup will be the main group to manage this article. Note, the tag is *not* "[[Category:Library and Information Science]]"; that's because we're attaching the article to its *management*. Launch area management: deferred We should probably defer selection of discipline workgroup management until after more people have arrived. There may be so few of us that no formal organization is needed.

Proposed subgroups

The organisation we inherited from the Wikipedia portal is subdivided into disciplines within Library and Information Science, based on the portal, however, we do not have to follow such a format. We can move forward with subgroups that seem more natural, and I imagine some subgroups will include several related disciplines. We can discuss this more on the subgroups thread, in the Library and Information Science forum, as we reach a critical mass of editors and authors. Relevant lists and headers from Wikipedia are shown at the bottom of this section. List of Library and Information Science disciplines Template:Biology-footer

High priority articles

This list of articles was extracted from the CZ:High priority articles for pilot page. It is not complete but it can be used as a starting point for placing "[[Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup (Top)]]" taggs. We need to decide which of the articles below should be classified as "Top" and the remainder should be tagged with "[[Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup]]" taggs.
