Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Spirituality. 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 inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

[edit] Tasks

Spirituality WikiProject and Portal Here are some Spirituality related tasks you can do: Requests: Nature-centered spirituality, More... NPOV: Barbara Brennan, Immortality, List of people considered to be deities, Omnipotence, Otherkin, Rajneesh, Spiritual abuse, Sufism, Tattva, Tattva vision, Transtheism, More... Wikify: Nominate an article, More... Attention/Cleanup/Copyedit: Brahma KWS Org, Cosmogony, Enlightenment (concept), Great Awakening, Guru, Hesychasts, Koan, Maria Lionza, Mantra, Meaning of life, Revivalism, Spiritual being, Spiritualism, Tithe, Vegan organic gardening, More...

[edit] Adopt an article

Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.

[edit] "Spirituality" navigation bar

If you're interested in adding a "Spirituality" navigation bar to the top of every wikipage, you can do so with just a few simple steps. Of course, you can modify the links to customize the bar to include just about any wikipage. — Richard_RDF^talk 20:00, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

• Create a page called "User:<YourUserName>/monobook.js"
• Copy and save the "hidden" text you will find when you edit this section. (Copying from the display page seems to include unwanted breaks or other characters.)
• Refresh the page, e.g., <Ctrl>F5, or whatever for your browser, to see the changes
• Nav away!

Thanks Richard! Could you link to an example? Geir 08:19, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
