How you can help[edit]
Anybody can help! Some things to do include:
- Identify target articles-particularly covering fundamental concepts and ideas.
- Improve and discuss the proposed structures of articles.
- Improve articles yourself!
- Assess article quality and article importance in relation to neuroscience (see Wikipedia:WikiProject Neuroscience/Assessment)
- Leave comments on the WikiProject Neuroscience talk page for feedback.
Upload images related to neuroscience- Our greatest need at the moment is for images, such as photos, figures, or drawings, that convey scientifically important messages. We currently lack good illustrations for many of the most basic concepts in neuroscience; for example, we don't have a good electron micrograph of an ordinary synapse. If you are the owner of any graphics that might be useful, and are willing to make them available under a license that makes them usable in Wikipedia (you can require attribution, but can't forbid commercial use or modification), please donate them to Wikimedia Commons. Artistic merit is always nice, but scientific value is more important. Image donations will be very much appreciated even if you don't make any other contribution to Wikimedia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them on the WikiProject Neuroscience talk page.
Focus articles[edit]
This section lists relatively complete articles which are fundamental to neuroscience which should be worked on to meet Featured Article criteria. This section emphasizes the general before the specific.
Neuroscience/Neurobiology: This really should be a better article. We need images, history, etc. We can borrow some history from brain.
Brain: Underway! Note: much being put in the brain article belongs in the human brain article.- Human brain
- Autonomic nervous system
- Central nervous system
- Neuron
Lists of other content to work on include:
- List of neuroscience topics
- Popular WP:Neuroscience-tagged pages
- ...and pretty much everything in Category:Neuroscience stubs.
