Things To Do
Here are some tasks awaiting attention: Copyedit : Any articles with "attention needed" Infobox : Make Infoboxes for Robotics articles which need robotics standards Stubs : 213 stubs exist of which around 50% could be improved to Start-class Update : Begin tagging and assessing all related robotics articles with project banner, located on the Template page.

Welcome to WikiProject Robotics. Some Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Robotics and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please join the project, inquire on the viws page and see the to-do list below.
