Help:Project

In the context of wikis, in particular Wikimedia wikis, project can relate to:

• Wikimedia projects: all wikis of one kind; for example, Wikipedia and Wikibooks are two projects, each with many language editions; for example, new project policy says "NOTE: An existing project in a new language is not a new project."
  • a wiki (in terms of the first meaning: a language edition of a project); for example "proposals for closing projects"
• WikiProject: a subproject within a wiki organized by and for fewer Wikimedians to coordinate work on topic, technology or campaign, e.g. w:Wikipedia:WikiProject Trainshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains.
