Most articles within
Category:Technology and its sub-categories are within our scope. There are
several other projects with similar scopes, which we hope to work closely with.
Goals
To improve Wikipedia's coverage of technology by creating, expanding, and maintaining such articles.
To provide guidelines and recommendations for articles that describe all aspects of technology.
To serve as the central point of discussion for issues related to technology in Wikipedia.
WikiProject Technology has developed several structural features to help manage our work
Coordinators are responsible for maintaining the administrative aspects of the project
Departments host work on several specialized tasks, including article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, and offline publication.
Task forces are more informal groups for collaboration on specific topics within history.
While analyzing the outline, please answer the following questions (and fix the outline as needed):
What's missing?
Is the structure of the outline (sections and indents) representative of the subject?
Does the outline help understand the relationships between the topics presented in the best way possible?
The overall purpose of the outline is to help readers comprehend the subject by showing what belongs to it, and within the subject what belongs to what.
The outline is a taxonomy of the subject, and also serves as a table of contents and navigation aid to browse Wikipedia's articles (and article sections) about the subject.
It is also a useful tool for the WikiProject to analyze, plan, develop, and revise technology-related material. It is a hub from which to organize technological topics.
It was built as a "
reverse outline", a
structural model of an existing work, which in addition to being a summary of the work, can reveal the gaps and other weaknesses for revision purposes.

Organization
Coordinators
The
project coordinators are generally responsible for maintaining all of the procedural and administrative aspects of the project and serve as the designated points-of-contact for procedural issues. They are not, however, endowed with any special executive powers.
The Collaboration department serves to improve articles that have been assessed by the
assessment department by assigning large groups of editors to improve those articles. Help can be requested for an article you are working on or you have found abandoned. A list of open tasks can also be found here
The Review department carries out
peer reviews on historical articles and nominates articles for
good and
featured status. It also carries out
A-Class reviews on articles within our scope.
