Wikipedia:WikiProject Neopaganism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Timemaster (talk | contribs) at 14:09, 3 March 2006 (Stubs needing love: added Diana L. Paxson - stub; also needs mentioning of Neopaganism).

Welcome to the Neopaganism WikiProject, dedicated to expanding, organizing, verifying, and NPOVing articles related to neopagan religions. If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to add your name to the list below!

Goals of the Project

  1. Through discussion and consensus, determine a standard for the capitalization and hyphenation of "neopagan(ism)" and "pagan(ism)" in articles and apply it consistently. Also, determine what circumstances call for the use of "pagan" vs. "neopagan".
  2. Find source citations for all of the information presented in Wicca and Neopaganism.
  3. Expand Wikipedia's coverage of notable Wiccan traditions, people, and practices. Populate Category:Wiccan traditions.
  4. Expand Wikipedia's coverage of polytheistic reconstructionist traditions. Integrate coverage of the various Germanic movements with other discussion of reconstructionist polytheism. Fill in gaps at Neopaganism#Reconstructionist.
  5. Where necessary, rewrite neopaganism-related articles, especially those related to ethnic traditions widely practiced outside the US and/or in non-English-speaking countries, to represent a more global view.
  6. Verify information in "X in Neopaganism" or "Neopagan views of x" sections of articles on other topics, citing sources and making sure that the information is consistent with that presented in Neopaganism (after that article has been verified, of course!).
  7. Eventually, bring Neopaganism and Wicca to Featured Article status.
