Organizations are entities (such as institutions or associations) that comprise many people and have a particular purpose. Those covered here include government agencies, intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, charities, non-profit groups, partnerships, and cooperatives, as well as secret societies, organized crime groups, and resistance movements operating illegally. Companies, governments, armed forces, and educational institutions are covered independently in other sublists.

This user-made vital articles sublist includes 460 organizations for which I personally believe the English Wikipedia should have corresponding profile articles. Articles are labeled based on their quality as outlined below.
