Editing Incubator escapee wiki:WikiProject Science (section)

==[[Image:Searchtool.svg|26px|Scope]] Scope and goals==
This [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|WikiProject]] aims primarily to coordinate the efforts of Wikipedians interested in '''[[science]]''' in an effort to '''improve popular science-related articles'''. It is motivated by the belief that a good scientific article should be both understandable by the "general public" and interesting to the scientifically inclined. This is important because many popular articles are about science, so contributing to them brings us the satisfaction that it will be appreciated by many.

The goals of this WikiProject are:
# To attract [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedians]] to this project and focus the effort for maximum efficiency
# To serve as a nexus and discussion area to build consensus on how to write good scientific articles.

===Plan of approach===
The approach is to start with the most popular scientific articles, then focus on the more specific ones. The most popular scientific articles are the ones that are most referenced by other articles (as [[Google]] does).

===Other science projects===
Additional science projects are listed at this directory page: [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory/Science|WikiProject Council: Directory&nbsp;–  Science]]. See the current [[Portal:Science|Science portal]] for examples of how science articles can be arranged topically and linked to and from related WikiProjects and [[Portal:Contents/Portals|Portals]]. [[Outline of scientific method|Outline of the scientific method]] is also a useful article.
