Welcome to WikiProject Wikipedia-Books. This is a collaboration dedicated to improving Wikipedia’s coverage and documentation of Wikipedia-Books (from now on, simply 'books'); as well as to improve and maintain the organization of book, books-related categories, and books-related templates; and help people on everything related to books (writing advice, template advice, bugs in the software, and so on). If you would like to help, please join the project, check out the talk page once in a while (or watch it) and see the to-do list below. Other WikiProjects can help by adding the book-class to their Project's banner (see the how-to guide).
A bunch of printed Wikipedia books, on a variety of topics
This WikiProject aims to help users write Wikipedia-Books, and guide the use of the Wikipedia-Books tools, the Wikipedia:Books page and subpages.
The core of the project is all the pages in the Book namespace (i.e. pages that start with Book:...), and any category or template that deal with these pages. Also concerned are the pages related to the book tool.
In the long run we hope to have books that are good enough to be traditionally published. That means they would get an ISBN, be available in stores, both online and offline, etc...
If you're interested in helping with this goal, please also visit the Publishing Wikipedia Books subproject.
Headbomb (talk·contribs) - I'll coordinate the efforts of this project as best I can. Basically I'll make sure things run smoothly and that resources and tools are readily available and up to date. I'll also act as a link between the devs and the community. 18:15, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Pjoef (talk·contribs) ~ I'm using this tool since 2009, I created and updated many books, and I am "intrigued" (more correctly interested) to see where it will go. I'm very pleased to be here... hope to be of some help in the future, of course. 00:28, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Amandajm (talk·contribs) (I want to add some "major work" pages to the Leonardo da Vinci book and remove the less relevant. My expertise is principally art and architecture, but my interests are wide ranging. ) 00:24, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Template:Book can be used to create a basic main article and supporting articles book. The template also creates links to start subpages for a table of contents and introduction plus a books category based on the main article.
