Wikipedia:WikiProject Corruption

Welcome to WikiProject Corruption. Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Corruption, Anti-corruption, 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 to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list, below.

Goals
The anti corruption domain of articles do not align to a common standard and are generally of low quality. The goal of this project is to standardise articles relating to anti-corruption and corruption with the aim of bringing central articles up to good article quality.

 * Forms of corruption, e.g.
 * Bribery, such as Hush money
 * Kickback_(bribery)
 * Sweetheart deals
 * White-collar crime e.g.
 * Such as money laundering, tax evasion, and embezzlement
 * Investigations e.g.
 * Whistleblowing and whistleblowers
 * Data leaks, such as the Panama Papers case or the FinCEN Files
 * Investigative journalism, such as International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project
 * Individual corruption cases e.g.
 * Such as Lockheed bribery scandals, 1Malaysia Development Berhad scandal
 * Non-governmental organizations e.g.
 * Global Witness and Transparency International
 * Law enforcement bodies with anti-corruption mission e.g.

Editing advice

 * Maintain a neutral point of view.
 * Articles should be edited without conflict of interest
 * When editing articles on individuals, ensure notability and policies for articles on living people.

Editathons

 * Project X (Ghana) - A series of editathons was organized between June and August of 2018. The goal of the Wikimedia Foundation funded grant was to improve Wikipedia content related to corruption and anti-corruption, as well as train newbies to become Wikipedia editors on the subject.


 * An edit-a-thon or training took place in Vilnius, Lithuania, in June 2024 during the International Anti-Corruption Conference. It was open to registered conference participants.
