Title

WikiProject on the Middle Ages

Scope

Initially, the main purpose of this project is to provide a common place to gather on the broad subject of the Middle Ages. To that end goals include:

  • Provide a forum to introduce yourself as a contributor to articles on the Middle Ages.
  • Provide a forum to announce newly created articles on the Middle Ages that may be of interest to the rest of the group.
  • Suggestions, resolutions, questions, and project creations, best practices HOWTO creation, etc.. all TBD.

The period is anything that could be defined as Middle Ages which typically could be anything from the Fall of Rome to the 16th Century. Use your best judgement, there are no boundaries.
