Wikipedia:WikiProject Podcasting

Welcome to WikiProject Podcasting, a collaboration area and group of editors dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of podcasting. For more information on WikiProjects, please see WikiProject and the Guide to WikiProjects.

Scope
Wikiproject Podcasting is a WikiProject dedicated to making Wikipedia's knowledge of notable podcast and podcast-related information as complete as possible. We're also here to keep Wikipedia's podcasting articles free of WP:NPOV and WP:NOR issues, and ensure that all podcasts meet WP:WEB notability requirements.

Articles

 * There are currently no guidelines for style of podcast articles.
 * There are currently no guidelines for style of podcaster articles.
 * There are currently no guidelines for style of podcasting network or collective articles.
 * There are currently no guidelines for style of podcasting platform or app articles.
 * There are currently no guidelines for style of podcasting technology articles.

Notability
Shows must meet WP:WEB criteria, which covers a broad range of content including webcomics, podcasts, blogs, Internet forums, online magazines and other media, web portals and web hosts. See WP:WEB for full details. Please note that primary sources alone are not sufficient to establish notability—reliable independent third parties must be cited.

A podcast show notability proposal was raised, but did not achieve consensus with the community. An archive is available here. A notability proposal was later raised at WT:NME and was added to the essay with the shortcut WP:NPODCAST. Keep in mind this is still an essay, not a guideline or policy like WP:WEB or WP:N.

Categories
Existing categories are as follows: Shows may use both audio and video categories, provided separate audio and video episodes are available (e.g. a video show should not also use the audio category just because there is audio within the video episode).
 * Category:Podcasting - for broad articles about podcasting in general. Not for shows
 * Category:Audio podcasts - for shows that distribute a primarily audio-based feed (includes iTunes enhanced podcasts)
 * Category:Video podcasts - for shows that distribute a primarily video-based feed
