What's the most user-friendly way of doing this? Is there anything we need that Mediawiki doesn't already offer? Your replies, please! [[User:Samsara|Samsara]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Samsara|talk]]&nbsp;<small>•</small>&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Samsara|contribs]]) 15:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

:Um... I don't know how we could tell that. Unless I'm missing something, this is still at the "How exactly will this work?" stage. -[[User:Amarkov|Amarkov]] <small>^{[[User_talk:Amarkov|blah]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/User:Amarkov|edits]]}</small> 05:34, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

== Question.... ==

Would this project also involve something like a template for creating new articles under a specific category, something like they've done over at the aviation portal? They've got a boilerplate text template that's just subst in, this way all the articles follow the same approximate layout. [[User:NDCompuGeek|NDCompuGeek]] 12:11, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

:The idea here is to help with old articles which are bloated, not create new ones. I think. -[[User:Amarkov|Amarkov]] <small>^{[[User_talk:Amarkov|blah]]}_{[[Special:Contributions/User:Amarkov|edits]]}</small> 15:38, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

:Yes, like you said, most WikiProjects already have their own format that you are encouraged (although not obliged) to follow (some of the better articles seem to have a different structure from the rest, but it can help in the initial stages of an article). You should probably shop around for the WikiProject that does the thing you want, or start your own.
