Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels/Fantasy task force

Welcome to the Fantasy Task Force of the Novels WikiProject!

Scope

This task force seeks to create, improve, maintain, and provide a standard of consistency for articles about fantasy novels, novellas, novelettes & short stories as well as create a forum in which interested editors can work together to improve articles.

To-do

A list of articles needing cleanup associated with this project is available. See also the tool's wiki page and the index of WikiProjects.

• Tag articles!
• Recruit more members!
• Collaborate and join the discussions. If you know things, teach! (If you don't know things, Ask.)
• Add new articles! There are plenty of fantasy novels and shorter prose items still unaccounted for! Needed Articles
• Expand articles (or merge if appropriate). All of these stubs would welcome further care and attention.
• Keep plot summaries succinct, 400-700 words; see MOS:PLOT and MOS:NOVELPLOT for guidelines.
• Start looking for featured articles and lists while getting familiar with and helping with assessment of prose fiction articles. Then add an "Articles" section to this project page.
• Add things here!
