WikiProject Religious texts aims primarily to organise and condense the series of articles on religious texts. It is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please add yourself to the members list.

The scope of this project is all articles in the Category:Religious texts. Specifically, this project hopes to deal with all articles which relate or are a religious text.

• (1) We will assist in the assessment of articles in the field of religious texts, particularly those articles which have not yet been assessed.
• (2) We will assist in getting articles featured
• (3) We will assist in getting articles upgraded to good status
• (4) We will do what is on the to do section below

• Add all articles within the direct scope of this project to the Wikipedia:WikiProject Religious texts/watchlist list by category.
• Check recent changes for recent changes to these articles.
• Provide assessments listed under "Requesting an assessment", following the project standards.
• Improve current GA-class and A-class articles to FA standards so they may pass a featured article review.
• Improve B-class or A-class articles to GA standards that have not passed a GA review.

• Create article for Sefer Chasidim.
