Construction is the use of stone, wood, and concrete to build houses and palaces. Ingenuity is at work. But suddenly you touch my heart, you do me good. I am happy and I say: "This is beautiful. That is Architecture. Art enters in..." Le Corbusier, Vers une architecture, 1923


Are you interested in architecture? Do you think it is important to impart knowledge about architecture? Then, we would like to invite you to help us in this project.

This project develops ideas about how we might organize data in articles about architecture. First and foremost, we simply invite you to write articles.These ideas are only suggestions that do not necessarily need to be followed, but these guidelines can be helpful if you do not know what to write or where to begin.

ScopeEdit

This WikiProject aims to:

  1. Thoroughly explore architecture, buildings, construction globally and historically.
  2. Improve articles about architecture, architects, buildings and construction.
  3. Provide a place to discuss common issues on architecture, buildings, construction related pages.
  4. Organise and categorise Category:Architecture
  5. Ensure all pages meet the standards of Wikipedia:Cite sources. See also WikiProject Fact and Reference Check.
  6. Develop standards and templates for architecture, buildings, construction related articles.
  7. Manage editing of the Template:Portal-inline

How to contributeEdit

Improve Outline of architectureEdit

The outline of architecture is a centralized navigation hub for the subject of architecture. It is intended to summarize the entire subject of architecture and Wikipedia's coverage of it. In turn, it is part of Wikipedia's outline system which is one of Wikipedia's contents systems.

Please look it over and fill-in missing topics and pictures. If Wikipedia has an article or article section about those topics, please add links to them.

While browsing the outline, please answer the following questions (and fix the outline as needed):

  1. What's missing? (Among other things: pictures! Showcase the best buildings!)
  2. Is the structure of the outline (sections and indents) representative of the subject?
  3. 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 intended to be 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 this WikiProject to analyze, plan, develop, and revise architectural articles. It is a hub from which to organize architecture-related topics.

It was built as a "reverse outline", a structural model of existing work, which in addition to being a summary of the work, can reveal the gaps and other weaknesses for revision purposes.

Using starter templatesEdit

The starter templates listed below can assist you by setting up standard headings and infoboxes in your article. To use them follow this procedure:

  1. Create a blank article having first considered the information above concerning naming conventions and relevance.
  2. Copy one of the following templates and use it to start the article:
    1. Architect template for articles about architects
    2. Modern building template for articles about buildings begun on or after 1900
    3. Historic building template for articles about buildings begun before 1900
  3. Save the article
  4. Edit the article again, and add the text for your article under the headings that are created.

InfoboxesEdit

The starter templates above are embedded with the following infoboxes than can be inserted separately into an article - this is not compulsory - often architecture articles are better first illustrated by other means:

Pages needing attentionEdit

Categories and articles for cleanup, expansion needed, expert attention, Wikification, neutrality in question and articles to be merged or split

Top-level articles that fail to provide an adequate overview of the subject. Most of these are hopelessly incomplete and / or unbalanced, and fail to provide even a competent guide to coverage of the subject elsewhere in Wikipedia. Wide-ranging expert knowledge and some research would be needed to get these to a decent standard.

Structural elements articles, relatively easy to put right and very much in need of attention:
