Wikipedia:WikiProject Terrorism/Collaboration

Each month the project will pick an article relating to the general topic of terrorism for collaboration to improve the article.

Considerations for nominations

 * Giving reasons why an article should become the collaboration article may convince others to support your nomination.
 * Can the wider community of terrorism editors easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?
 * Is the article a stub or very small?
 * A good place to look for articles that might be worthy of a nomination are the paramilitary action stubs and paramilitary organization stubs.

How to nominate

Voting
A vote or a show of support for an article shows your commitment to support and aid in collaborating on that specific article if it is chosen. Although you are not required to fulfill that commitment, we ask that you only support articles that you are able to contribute to so that this collaboration's goals of expanding and improving articles can adequately be achieved. Feel free to vote for as many candidates as you like.

Any registered user is encouraged to vote so long as you abide by the policies of Wikipedia, specifically Sockpuppets.

Please add only support votes. Opposing votes will not affect the result, as the winner is simply the one with the most support votes (see Approval voting).

To vote for a nomination, edit the nomination and add the following to the bottom of the Support section: # ~ This adds your username and a time stamp to the numbered list item. The vote will look like this:
 * 1) Username 08:59, Jul 1 2005 (UTC)

If you wish to withdraw your vote, do not remove your vote; instead, add an asterisk and strike-through tags to your vote as shown: This allows the project to correctly calculate the remaining votes and will appear like this:

Ties
There will be one article selected per month. At the end of the month, in the event of a tie, voting will be extended 24 hours. If there is still a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins. During the extended voting period the old collaboration will still be active. Regardless, all nominations are removed from consideration at the end of the month, although those which were not selected as the collaboration can be nominated again.

Pruning
Nominations will only be valid until the time of collaboration selection. At that time, all nominations will be removed, and the board will be cleared for new nominations. Articles which had not been selected as the collaboration can be included again, however.
