Shortcut: WP:INET

Welcome to the Internet WikiProject, a collaboration area and group of editors dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Internet.

(For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject and the Guide to WikiProjects).

Goals

1. Document the Internet's common protocols and popular technology.
2. Maintain and develop related categories

Scope

1. The Internet as a whole, its history, current use, future, structure, technology, etc.
2. Popular culture is excluded, and belongs in a separate project, as do computer networks other than the internet. Some overlap is expected with the latter, however - especially in Category:Internet standards.

[edit] Open tasks

edit · history · watch · refresh  To-do list for Wikipedia:WikiProject Internet:

Here are some tasks you can do: Requests: Flag Internet articles (ie. IETF-published protocols) with {{WikiProject Internet}}. That'd be the easiest place to start. Expand: Create initial cats and templates per Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Guide/WikiProject#Initial_setup and get recruiting. Other: Request bot flag {{Internet-stub}} articles with {{WikiProject Internet}} template and auto-assess article class?

• Suggest that Internet studies be added to the project. --ZimZalaBim ^talk 21:16, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

• It appears that Wikipedia needs an article on the new Internet2 Network to replace the Abilene Network article, which would now be part of the history of the Internet2 Network, at least according to the information at the Internet2 Network Upgrade blog. The Information in the Internet2 article also appears to be obsolete. I'm no IT expert so please excuse this request if I've misinterpreted this info!—Blanchette (talk) 04:37, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
