Welcome to WikiProject Genetics! This project aims to organize improvement and maintenance of genetics articles on Wikipedia. If you would like to help, feel free to add yourself to the list of participants. If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions for the project, please visit the project discussion page. [edit] Scope and goals - Classical genetics
- Genetic traits

[edit] Departments [edit] Assessment The assessment department coordinates article assessments for the project based on quality and project importance. The department collects statistics in cooperation with the Version 1.0 Editorial Team. Assessment requests for articles can be made here. To have an article reviewed, usually prior to gaining a higher-level assessment rating, please see the Peer review section below. [edit] FA-class review [edit] Collaboration Collaboration is conveyed through WikiProject Genetics/Collaboration of the Month [edit] Outreach and newsletter Newsletters are released as information warrants by WikiProject Genetics' Outreach Department (to be established) through cooperation with WikiProject Council/Newsletters. WikiProject Genetics current newsletter is May 2008. [edit] Peer review Genetics article peer review exposes articles to closer scrutiny from a broader group of editors, and is intended for high-quality articles that have already undergone extensive work, often as a way of preparing a featured article candidate. To request a peer review, please follow these instructions. [edit] Translation Requests for translation of genetics articles from foreign-language Wikipedias into English may be posted at Wikipedia:Translation. For translation of genetics articles in the opposite direction (from English to another language), see the translation how-to page. [edit] Task forces WikiProject Genetics does not have any task forces at present. [edit] Work groups/topic coordination WikiProject Genetics does not have any work groups at present. [edit] Project tools/resources [edit] Guidelines - Style guide and essays [edit] Templates [edit] Banners templates WikiProject Genetics' project banner is {{WikiProject Genetics}}. Please place at the top of an appropriate talk page. Placing the template on the talk page will help to direct editors to this WikiProject Genetics main page.
