Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Villages of Bangladesh. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

Guidelines
The goal of Wikipedia is to become a complete, accurate encyclopaedia. The three major content policies (verifiability, no original research and a neutral point of view) and notability contain important advise and rules on how to achieve accuracy, so careful fact checking is strongly recommended.

Remain objective as possible. The point and ideal of Wikipedia is to create an encyclopaedic neutral body of knowledge. Avoid using the first-person point of view (emphasising the facts; not the editor). Explain the evidence (from the links and references) and explain the reasons of any conclusions.

Remember, Wikipedia is not about just writing whatever is true (See: What Wikipedia is not), it is about writing whatever can be verified as truth. See Citing sources for why we cite sources, and Citation templates for ways of citing sources properly.

Don't over-categorize
Having added an article to, say, Category:Massacres in Bangladesh, there's no need to also add that article to Category:War crimes in Bangladesh, Category:Bangladesh Liberation War, Category:History of Bangladesh or Category:Bangladesh. The category hierarchy expresses the fact that every article about Massacres in Bangladesh is an article about War crimes in Bangladesh and an article Bangladesh Liberation War.

Public domain photographs
According to Bangladesh copyright act of 2000 (covered by The Daily Star ), all photographs enter the public domain after sixty years counted from the beginning of the following calendar year after they were first published (i.e. as of 2006, prior to 1946-01-01). Try to upload as many such images as relevant and tag them with PD-Bangladesh.

Reviewing AFDs
Add the page WikiProject Deletion sorting/Villages of Bangladesh to your watchlist to receive notifications of Bangladesh related articles that are nominated for deletion.

Keep the list updated by adding any relevant AFD nominations you may come across and remove any that have been closed.

Adopt an article scheme

 * For an extensive list of articles pertaining to this project see Category:WikiProject Villages of Bangladesh articles

Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, formatting and adding images (if possible) for either a non-existent article, a stub or a very short article. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced. If you have adopted an article, please, feel free to add that information here.
