[edit] About the Pub task force

Some Wikipedians have formed a task force to better organize information in articles related to pubs and drinking establishments within WikiProject Beer. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians.

[edit] Scope

This task force aims to be a complete resource on pubs and drinking establishments. In general, the scope of this project is to find and improve every pub and drinking establishment article on Wikipedia to the point where they serve as an authoritative and highly regarded guide to all readers. There is some overlap with our sister WikiProject Bartending, creating opportunities for collaboration.

[edit] Structure

Work within the existing category structure, seeking improvements and amendments as needed.

[edit] Community forums

A community forum has been established to help manage common goals of the associated Food and Drink WikiProjects. A general forum can be found here.

Goal specific forums

• Guidelines forum - This forum has been set up for the various Food and Drink projects to develop a set of Manual of Style guidelines for use in articles under the auspices of all the related Food and Drink WikiProjects and task forces. This would be similar to the MoS guidelines for biographies or legal articles.

• Restaurant notability guidelines discussion - This guideline is intended to extend WP:CORP, in no way to replace its purpose, in regard to restaurants. It is also not intended to replace, supplant, or otherwise alter the standard notability requirements.

The reason this extension of the notability requirements is necessary is that there is a constant inflow of pages for restaurants that do not have, or have a very tenuous, notability.

[edit] Article information

[edit] Merge Proposals

Be bold as per the merge guideline and merge small articles into parent articles if you feel it's appropriate. If you are wrong it's a couple of clicks to put things right! No sweat. If you are unsure, list it here or get a second opinion.

[edit] Deletion Proposals

Please list any articles or categories listed for deletion here so that they may be discussed.
