User:Sasuke Sarutobi/WikiProject Systems Renewal

Plan for reactivating WikiProject Systems.

Overview

 * Identify related and model WikiProjects
 * Archive and update the main project page using required sections
 * Establish a list of bots required for the project and required workflows
 * Establish which templates are required
 * Establish expected manual workflows
 * Contact key and active prior contributors

Model WikiProjects

 * WikiProject Medicine
 * WikiProject Military History
 * WikiProject Physics
 * WikiProject Spaceflight

''Are there any further statistics to highlight model WikiProjects? Are there analyses that would show e.g. Ω/ω vs. total article count?'' N.B. Declaring a particular WikiProject a 'model WikiProject' is not endorsement of any as 'better than all others', or lack of declaration a suggestion that another WikiProject is not as good; simply that, after looking at them, they do something in a way that I like.

Related WikiProjects

 * WikiProject Computing
 * WikiProject Mathematics
 * WikiProject Military History?
 * WikiProject Physics?
 * WikiProject Science
 * WikiProject Spaceflight?
 * WikiProject Systems Engineering Initiative (inactive)

Bots for project

 * Tagging:
 * New pages: AlexNewArtBot
 * Auto-assessment:
 * Cleanup listings: CleanupWorklistBot
 * Recognised content: JL-Bot/Project content
 * Deletion and review discussions: AAlertBot

Bot workflow

 * 1) Tag articles based on category
 * 2) Auto-assess tagged articles
 * 3) Generate and prioritise cleanup listings from assessed and auto-assessed articles

Project page

 * 1) Compare project page structure to model WikiProjects
 * 2) Investigate replacement templates for sub-sectioned pages
 * 3) Draft replacement page

Current sections
Announcements, Participants, 'How can I contribute?', To do list, Articles, Templates, Assessment, Clean up listing

Desired tabs & sections
Tabs: Main, Discussion, Assessment, Cleanup, Participants Sections: Introduction, Milestones, Related WikiProjects, Announcements, Templates, Under review, Assessment, ?

Showcase? - Are there any bots, templates, or categories that can update this automatically?

Rolling project overview

 * 1) Derive categories used for project;
 * 2) Set up AlexNewArtBot to tag articles (see User:AlexNewArtBot for more info);
 * 3) Manually run WP 1.0 bot to update list
 * 4) Calculate and display proportion using above figures and templates  and  (see WikiProject Spaceflight/Assessment for example iteration)

Initial aims

 * 1) All unassessed articles: http://tools.wmflabs.org/enwp10/cgi-bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&projecta=Systems&quality=Unassessed-Class
 * 2) All unknown-importance articles: http://tools.wmflabs.org/enwp10/cgi-bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&projecta=Systems&importance=Unknown-Class
 * 3) Choice of Top-importance B-class articles for GA improvement and promotion: http://tools.wmflabs.org/enwp10/cgi-bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&projecta=Systems&importance=Top-Class&quality=B-Class
 * 4) B-class assessment of Top-importance C-class articles: http://tools.wmflabs.org/enwp10/cgi-bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&projecta=Systems&importance=Top-Class&quality=C-Class

Longer-term aims
N.B: calculation required for current project position vs. model WikiProjects
 * Modelled from WikiProject Medicine


 * 1) n% of Top-Class articles at GA or above
 * 2) 50%? of High-Class articles at B or above
 * 3) 15%? of Mid-Class articles at B or above
 * 4) Less than n% of Low-Class articles as stubs

Are there any templates for tying these into WP 1.0 bot? - Use progression template (see WikiProject Military History for example implementation).

Milestones

 * Modelled from WikiProject Military history


 * 1) 10? featured articles
 * 2) 50? featured pictures
 * 3) 25? other featured content items
 * 4) 30? good articles
 * 5) 15%? of all articles rated B-class or better

User involvement tasks
''N.B: are there any bots or tools for this? For instance, this?'' The above has been superseded by the WikiProject directory created under WikiProject X — participant list here.
 * 1) Cross-reference participants for activity;
 * 2) Message all participants;
 * 3) Move participants inactive on Wikipedia to 'inactive participants' list.

''Which task forces would be recommended? Which task forces would participants want?''
 * 1) Assessment

"Departments" vs. "teams"

Fields

 * From documentation for WikiProject Systems banner

Priorities

 * B-class assessment:
 * Enterprise modelling — assessment complete, work required
 * Operations research - tagged for rewriting and merge of Management science into the article
 * Software engineering - tagged for merge of In-house software into the article
 * System - currently Start-class (former GA)
 * Systems theory - no hatnotes for page issues, but a few "citations needed" tags and no images


 * Upgrade to top-class
 * Enterprise modelling
 * Scientific visualization?
