Wikipedia:WikiProject Countering systemic bias/open tasks

This page is currently inactive and is retained for historical reference. Either the page is no longer relevant or consensus on its purpose has become unclear. To revive discussion, seek broader input via a forum such as the village pump.

These are the open tasks for the Wikiproject Countering systemic bias. Articles are listed thematically, and then by the type of assistance requested. An article stub for a feminist author would thus be found under the "Requests for expansion" section under Women's Studies.

Themes are divided into four stages: non-existent, stubby, identifiably flawed and satisfactory. "Requested articles" are pages that are entirely missing from Wikipedia. A little bit of research on the web is normally enough to write a stub. Be sure to move the list entry to the relevant section once you are done. Articles that are stubby, or otherwise lacking in content, may be found under "Requests for expansion". If something in particular is missing, such as a university article with a long list of alumni but little historical background, be sure to say so when you enter it. "Requests for review" is for articles that are of decent length but need more attention. A need for a copyedit or for a fact check by a knowledgeable reader are appropriate reasons to ask for review.

Once an article has passed through the various stages of this process it may be placed under the Satisfactory section. Satisfactory articles are well-rounded, long enough to cover the topic in reasonable detail, and lack any major flaws. They are not expected to be perfect.

This open tasks list is intended to be a complement to the various Wikipedia features such as Cleanup, Requests for expansion, Pages needing attention and peer review, and you are encouraged to add articles from this list to those pages. Many articles on this page may also be good candidates for Collaboration of the week or the Article improvement drive. If you find a particularly good article in a CSB-related area, by all means nominate it as a Featured Article candidate.

If you feel an article is neglected due to systemic bias, feel free to add it to an appropriate section or even to start a new section below. Sections describing perceived biases that do not include articles are placed at the bottom of the page. If no articles are placed within the section within a month, it will be assumed that the objection is not actionable and the section will be removed.
