WikiProject Pharmacology coordinates the development of Wikipedia articles relating to drugs and pharmacology.

Goals edit

  • Categorize and tag all articles within the scope of WikiProject Pharmacology.
    • Insert {{WikiProject Pharmacology|class=|importance=}} on every Pharmacology-related article's talk page you can find.
  • Assess the quality and importance of each article as it relates to this project.
  • Create msg boxes for Drug and each category (the drug msg-box will contain all categories, and specific categories' msg-boxes will contain links to actual articles of specific drugs, with possible sub-categorization).
  • Remove inconsistencies in related articles and expand all stubs under the scope of the project.

Improve articles edit

Categorize articles edit

  • Label articles of interest to the project by putting the {{WikiProject Pharmacology}} template on the talk pages of all articles of interest to pharmacy and pharmacology.
  • Stubs: Category:Uncategorised pharmacology articles contains all stubs requiring categorization.
  • Categorize drug articles by adding them to the appropriate categories.
  • Once an article achieves a level of B-class or C-class, place the pharmacology portal template in the 'see also' or 'external links' section. You can do this by adding the following tag: {{Portal|Pharmacy and Pharmacology}}.
