    Join the project and add {{User WikiProject Schools}} to your talk page. Place the project banner {{WikiProject Schools}} on the talk pages of all articles within the scope of the project. Read the pages at Wikipedia:Schools for the current discussions on school policy.

    • The WikiProject Schools pages will help you to make excellent school articles. The project covers all articles about schools, school districts, and related articles such as school, as well as institutions that use collegeoracademy as part of their name, but are actually primary or secondary schools. It also includes further education schools and sixth form colleges, and vocational and job schools that do not award recognised degrees in their own right.[1]

    Project goals

    [edit]

    This project aims to improve the quality of school-related articles. Articles within the scope of this project should become far more substantial than stubs, and ultimately match the quality of featured articles.

    By their nature, school articles are often targets for vandalism and promotional claims. Editors are asked to be as helpful as possible in removing irrelevant, inappropriate, or unsourced content.

    Article guidelines and notability

    [edit]

    Guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines demonstrate what school articles should contain, and provide a recommended common page structure. These guidelines offer advice that editors are encouraged to follow.

    Article grading

    [edit]

    School articles are graded for quality based on the Assessment scale and for importance using the Release Version Criteria scale. For further information, visit the Assessment department.

    Potential featured article candidates

    [edit]

    This section notes school articles that can be recommended as a feature article. That is an article that is particularly well-written and complete. Please list an article that is close to this criteria so that everyone can edit away to bring it up to featured article quality and submit it for consideration as a featured article.

    Potential good article candidates

    [edit]

    This section notes school articles that can be recommended as a good article. That is an article that is particularly well-written and complete but may lack the length or breadth to be a featured article. Please list an article that is close to this criteria so that everyone can edit away to bring it up to good article quality and submit it for consideration as a good article.

    Templates

    [edit]

    Use templates to further spread recognition of this project and create more consistent messages. They are explained and illustrated on our templates page. There's also a small one you might like to add to your own user page.

    Infobox templates

    [edit]

    For full instructions on the use of infoboxes for schools, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines#Infobox.

    The list of all available school-related infobox templates is in: Category:Education infobox templates

    Please be sure to use the correct infoboxes. Some English speaking countries have specific templates that provide parameters for the data points appropriate for their schools.


    Footnotes:

    1. ^ Elementary/primary and U.K. prep schools do not normally meet the notability requirements for their own Wikipedia article and will generally be merged by an experienced editor to their respective school district (in the U.S.) or locality page.
  • ^ Most junior high/middle (U.S.) and prep (U.K.) schools (or other lower secondary schools) do not meet the notability requirements for their own Wikipedia article and will generally be merged by an experienced editor to their respective school district (in the U.S.) or locality page.

    1. ^ Recognised degrees are generally bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees. This project includes polytechnics and vocational colleges that do not award degrees or which are affiliated to universities who issue the degree on their behalf. Colleges, universities, and other organisations that are authorised to issue their own degrees are covered by WikiProject Higher education.
