Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Reformed Christianity (Calvinism). Wikipedia articles on Reformed Christianity-related topics are typically at or near the top of Google searches - so accurate, thorough, and - yes - comprehensive entries are imperative. This page and its subpages contain suggestions and it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. All editors interested in Reformed Christianity are invited and encouraged to participate. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list here. The goals of the project are:
To improve the quality of Reformed Christianity-related articles.
To increase the number of articles related to Reformed Christianity in Wikipedia
Theologians, philosophers, or some other important Christian worker, e.g. Bible translator, evangelist, etc.
Politicians (kings, lords, whatever) that had an influence on the ability of Reformed Christianity to spread, e.g. took in Reformed Christian refugees, were of help to Reformed Christianity materially, or the like
Ministers if they a have relevance to the wider Reformed tradition.
Go to work in one of our departments; Assessment could use some help at the moment.
Help ensure that each of the topics which has separate articles in print encyclopedias receives some degree of similar attention here. An early listing of some such articles can be found at WP:WikiProject Reformed Christianity/Tasks/Prospectus.
Assessment Department - These editors work to assess and categorize articles within the scope of the Reformed Christianity project.
Collaboration Department - Here we seek to identify articles that would benefit from a significant collaborative effort.
Translation Department - These editors serve to enhance Wikipedia's Reformed Christianity content by translating material from or to non-English articles and sources for use within the project. To coordinate this, it includes a staff of volunteer translators for various languages.
Outreach Department - These editors work to recruit and welcome new editors to the project.
The following templates can be used on pages in Wikipedia to associate them with the Reformed Christianity WikiProject. Click on a template's title to see a sample of what it produces when included on a page. For a full list of Reformed Christianity templates see the main template page.
Main templates
{{Portal|Reformed Christianity}} — Template to add to main pages of all Calvinism-related articles

For clergy: (minister), (deacon), (priest), (bishop)
For scholars: (theologian), (philosopher)
Other possibilities: (author), (martyr), (missionary), (religious)
For other subjects: The simpler the title the better, with redirects or disambiguation pages, as necessary.
