Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to felidae and all varieties of cats. 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 add your name to the list of active members below. Scope This project deals with the creation and editing of articles related to cats, including both real and fictional cats. We shall also include within the scope of this project those articles which have a direct and significant impact upon all members of the family felidae, including such things as feline diseases and welfare. Departments - Assessment - This department monitors the quality of articles and indicates the relative importance of articles to this project. It is very useful in determining which articles are most in need of further attention and which are not.
- Peer review - This department provides editors with (comparatively) quick responses to their questions regarding the quality of specific articles.
- Gallery - a collection of some of our best and most honored images.
- Outreach - This department will be engaged in informing our members of the projects' activities and in trying to recruit new members.
- Collaboration - Still in the development stage, this department will allow us to concentrate our efforts on improving important articles to this project.
 Portal:Cats - Maintain featured status. Open Tasks If you do happen to have some free time on your hands, we would greatly appreciate if you can improve any of the articles which haven't yet reached good article status. Also, the Simple English Wikipedia could use some help on expanding their cat breed articles. In almost all cases on wikipedia, particularly articles which are less than good article status, we can always use additional references and reference citations for any information in any articles. The following articles, among others, are counted as being of high importance to this project, and any development of them would be greatly appreciated.
Regular cleanup You can also review the list of recent changes at recent changes to monitor for vandalism or to see if any article has been changed enough to change its current level of assessment. Requested articles Requested Mergers Article Alerts Recognized content We want everyone to know that the Portal:Cats is now officially recognized as a Wikipedia:Featured portal. We hope everyone will continue to contribute to the project's articles to help ensure that this portal can remain one of the best in wikipedia. Featured Articles Featured Pictures A collection of this project's nominated and winning pictures can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Cats/Gallery. Peer review/Featured article candidates (FAC) Good articles Did You Know (DYK) The following articles have been featured on the Main page in the Did you know section: Formerly recognized content Former featured articles Former good articles Cat breeds Structure There currently exists an article entitled List of cat breeds, which enumerates the various recognized breeds. The article on each breed shall include the following information: - a breed infobox(see below).
- lead section: introduction, general information about the breed, brief history, description.
- history: traditional/historical info. modern breed development etc.
- breed description: physical appearance, coat types, colors, temperament etc.
- health: known medical issues etc
- more?
Templates Cat breed articles The cat infobox on the right is generated by {{Infobox Catbreed}}. Documentation is contained on the template page. Note that some articles still use a non-templated infobox, which can be recognized by its thick gray borders. The template allows for the inclusion of a picture and caption, common names, nicknames, country of origin and links to breed standards of major registries. Other smaller organizations with separate breed standards can be included in "Others" if appropriate. Articles about non domestic felines should use Template:Taxobox. Talk page This banner {{WikiProject Cats|class=|importance=}} is for placement in the talk pages of cat-related articles.  | This article is within the scope of WikiProject Cats. This project provides a central approach to Cat-related subjects on Wikipedia.
Please participate by editing the article, and help us assess and improve articles to good and 1.0 standards, or visit the wikiproject page for more details. | |  ??? | This article has not yet received a rating on the project's quality scale. | | ??? | This article has not yet received a rating on the project's importance scale. | | | - Photos
You can add this template {{reqphoto|cats}} in the talk page of articles needing photos. The article is automatically added to the requested photographs of cats category. User page You can add {{user WikiProject Cats}} to your userpage if you choose to join this project.  | This user is a member of WikiProject Cats. |
;Barnstars Many projects have barnstars specifically designed for their projects. At this point this project does not. We are now however considering proposals for barnstar designs at Wikipedia:Barnstar and award proposals#WikiProject Cats. Please feel free to make any suggestions or indicate your opinion of the existing proposals, for this project's barnstar proposals and any others that might interest you, there. I hope that we can have one accepted and available for giving out to the appropriate editors shortly.
