Wikipedia:WikiProject Entrepreneurship policies in the Arab world

Welcome to WikiProject Entrepreneurship policies in the Arab world. Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of entrepreneurship policies in the Arab world, 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 join the project, inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list below.

Goals

 * This project addresses existing policies and research on entrepreneurship in the Middle East, North Africa, and Arab world. It will include country-specific pages on the best practices and the challenges that have been identified in the establishment of an entrepreneurial climate in this region.

Scope

 * This project covers entrepreneurship policy in all 22 countries in the Arab League and some neighboring countries. Its focus is on policy, research, and major initiatives.
 * The focus is on multi-year, ongoing initiatives, in order to avoid an unmanageable list of one-off, one-time events or small projects that have not yet proven themselves.

Guidelines
On this Project:
 * To ensure comparability, all countries covered will use the same basic template for categorizing policies. Once this template has been stabilized, modifying it will mean modifying all 22+ countries that use it, for which considerable discussion in the Template talk page is suggested to reach consensus in advance.
 * The same format is followed within each country: for each policy category, a very brief synopsis may be offered if helpful, followed by a short list of the most important 'best practices' that have been identified by leading scholars, followed by a short list of the 'needed reforms' that leading scholarly research has identified as being most important for the emergence of successful entrepreneurship in that particular country.
 * In order to avoid an overly-long "laundry list" and/or pet-peeves of particular interested parties, judgment and discretion is required to keep these lists succinct and limited to the top priorities for the country and region as a whole.
 * If possible, the specific law, regulation or policy should be identified, and linked to (if available).

On using Wikipedia:
 * If you are new to Wikipedia, Introduction is a gentle introduction to the world of Wikipedia. You might look at WP:How to edit a page for an overview, and the Cheatsheet that summarizes these points.
 * See also the WP:Manual of Style for a comprehensive overview of how to write and edit Wikipedia articles.
 * Wiki markup explains the mechanics of what codes are available to you when editing a page, to do things like titles, links, external links, and so on. (It's a section in WP:How to edit a page).
 * Cordial, civil, respectful, consensus-oriented discourse is expected on all pages. See WP:Civility, WP:Consensus, WP:Edit war, WP:Editing policy, WP:No personal attacks, and related links.
