Line 1: {{short description\|Sub-project of WikiProject Molecular Biology}} Some [[Wikipedian]]s have formed a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject\|project]] to better organize information in articles related to '''Molecular and Cellular Biology'''. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the [[{{NAMESPACE}} talk:{{PAGENAME}}\|talk page]] and see the [[Wikipedia:to-do list\|to-do list]] there. {{MolBioHeader/Taskforce \|about = ~~For more information on WikiProjects, please see [[Wikipedia:WikiProjects]] and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices]].~~ ===Scope=== ~~[[Image:Calvin-cycle2.png\|thumb\|right\|400px\|'''Featured Molecular and Cellular Biology Illustration'''. Image:Calvin-cycle2.png by [[User:Adenosine]]]]~~ This [[WP:WikiProject\|project]] aims to improve and organise articles related to [[Molecular biology\|molecular]] and [[Cell biology\|cell biology]] on Wikipedia. If you would like to help, feel free to add yourself to the [[WP:WikiProject Molecular and Cell Biology/Participants\|list of participants]], drop by our [[WT:MCB\|discussion page]] or just look over the [[#How you can help the project\|How you can help]] section below. ~~==Title==~~ ~~'''WikiProject on Molecular and Cellular Biology'''~~ ==~~Scope~~=Goals=== Collect and organize the wealth of information in [[Biological database\|databases]] and academic journals on genomes, proteomes and biological functions to ensure that it is accessible to both researchers and laypeople <br/> ~~<!-- The SCOPE of your project is its most important attribute.~~ Improve articles to [https://tools.wmflabs.org/enwp10/cgi-bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&projecta=MCB&quality=FA-Class featured article] status, especially [[WP:Vital_articles#Science_.28192_articles.29\|vital articles]], with a particular focus on subjects that are discussed at the primary and secondary school level <br/> ~~This is where you tell people precisely what is is you are doing and why.~~ Create a standard system for presenting the information about the proteins and cells that are discussed in Wikipedia articles ~~This is where BOLDNESS is proven. -->~~ This project aims to improve coverage of [[Molecular biology\|molecular]] and [[Cell biology\|cell biology]] at wikipedia. A major problem facing biology is organizing the vast amount of information that has been and continues to be collected about genomes, proteomes and cell function. Can wiki tools make a significant contribution to solving this problem? Can wikipedia provide an entry point for the world to the wealth of biological data that is currently hidden in obscure databases and journal articles? \|links= As a first step for this project, we can create a standardized system for presenting information about [[protein]]s and [[gene]]s within wikipedia. A logical place to start is with a system for categorization of proteins, start here: [[Whole proteome analysis]]. (see also: [[EC number]], [[Talk:Protein#Separate page for protein nomenclatures?\|protein nomenclature talk]], [[Talk:Protein#List of Proteins\|talk about protein lists]], [[Talk:List of proteins]] and [[Talk:Ion channel\|discussion about a specific class of non-enzyme proteins]]).

For proteins, functional categories are probably best and that is what is emphasized at [[Whole proteome analysis]]. Body section ---------------> {{col-begin}} {{col-break}} == How the project can help you == We can continue to develop the template for [[#Protein info box\|protein information boxes]]. Protein information boxes can be included in each wikipedia article about a particular protein. Eventually, there should also be an information box about [[List of distinct cell types in the adult human body\|cell types]]. <div style="float:left; width:100px; text-align:center; margin-left: 1.1em; margin-right: 1.1em;"> ~~==Similar WikiProjects==~~ [[File:Speechbubbles icon.svg\|50px\|link=WT:MCB\|alt=Discuss]]<br/> The [[Wikipedia:List of WikiProjects\|list of active projects]] has sections for both [[Wikipedia:List of WikiProjects#Biology\|Biology]] and [[Wikipedia:List of WikiProjects#Health sciences\|Health sciences]], but the most relevant seems to be the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Clinical medicine\|Medicine Project]] listed at the [[Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Biology\|Biology Portal]] and the [[Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Medicine\|Medicine Portal]].

This includes existing short articles about specific proteins and new stubs (see [[#Stub templates]]) for other proteins that are currently only mentioned in other wikipedia articles. '''Note on finding existing articles about proteins and mentioned proteins''': search wikipedia for "protein"; many proteins are mentioned in this sort of context: "the protein X", "a protein called Y" etc. On 8/30/05 I ([[User:JWSchmidt]]) went through the first 50 Google hits for "protein" in wikipedia, placing some [[#Stub templates\|stub templates]] (see below) and adding to [[List of proteins]]. '''See also''': [[Wikipedia:Requested articles/Natural Sciences#Proteins\|requested protein articles]]. '''Note''': many enzymes can be found in the wikipedia [[:Category:Enzymes\|enzymes category]]. :You may <span class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WP:WikiProject_Molecular_Biology/Molecular_and_Cell_Biology/Participants&veaction=edit add yourself]</span> and your interests to this manually-updated [[WP:WikiProject_Molecular_Biology/Molecular_and_Cell_Biology/Participants\|members list]] in alphabetical order. # expand stubs [[:Category: Molecular and cellular biology stubs\|Molecular and cellular biology stubs]]<BR>It seems a reasonable goal to have each wikipedia article that is about a particular protein include a paragraph that expands on each item in the corresponding protein information box. In other words, the protein information box can serve as a standard-format summary of many of the key topics in the full article. :There is also an automatically-updated list of [[WP:WikiProject_Directory/Description/WikiProject_Molecular_and_Cell_Biology#Active_WikiProject_Participants\|currently active participants]].<br> ~~# As protein information boxes are added to pages about specific proteins, be sure to add them to the [[List of proteins]].~~ You're also welcome to add the userbox <code>{{tl\|User MCB}}</code> to your userpage. ~~# There are also pages dealing with protein structural domains such as [[Homeobox]]. Maybe there should be an optional infobox template just for protein structural domains.~~ # '''Images'''. The [[Homeobox]] article is a good example of a page that contains an image that is for non-commercial use. The [[Oxytocin]] article contains a similar image that may also be a problem. I suggest that all such images that were derived from images that were archived at the PDB website (and were covered by their non-commercial uses disclaimer) be replaced by molecular model images generated by wikipedia users themselves from the raw structural data in the Protein Data Base. The image to the right is an example of such an image. The [[Protein Data Bank]] says, "The contents of PDB are in the public ___domain. Online and printed resources are welcome to include PDB data and images from the Structure Explorer pages, as long as they are not for sale as commercial items themselves, and their corresponding citations are included." ([http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/citing.html source]) Also see: [[:Category:Protein images]]. ~~#Protein-containing macromolecular complexes like [[ribosome]] should also be organized.~~ #Make sure that all articles about proteins are placed in the [[:Category:Proteins\|Proteins category]] or lower level categories that are subcategories of the '''Proteins category'''.

When the number of these articles is low that's not a problem but if this standart table is to be used for all the compounds produced by the cell - tens of hundreds if not thousands, then that's a major headache. So i learned about the templates and created format style II, which design by the way looks similar to the one used for the chemical element's "info table". Now if i need to make any change all i need to do is to change the appropriate template and that will affect all the articles that use it. Certainly, Style II is not in its final edition, more changes will be added to it to suit both the biologists and the chemists, as i would realy, hmmm dislike, if the info table contains chemical data only and lacks any biological one - the info for the melting and boiling points, or for any of the solid properties (i'm going to add these later) don't really "heat the soup" for the biologists, we also need stuff like - [[Hydrogen bond\|H-bond]] donor count. ~~About "EINECS", i added it b/c it was already in the info, i didn't know what it ment. If it is not used anymore then i'll stop using it too.~~ I didn't write the code that adds the article's name on the top of the table b/c having a table named "Creatine" in an article called "Creatine" is redundant. But if you insist i will add it and here is the exmple of the power of the templates - i will change the template [[Template:NatOrganicBox_header\|<nowiki>{{NatOrganicBox_header}}</nowiki>]] and all the articles that use it will be affected.
