Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Java/Things you can do/to do

THE place to contribute ideas about what to do next...

• Questions:
  • 1) Where should we tag {{Portal|Java|Wave.svg}} and/or {{Java (Sun)}} / {{Java Virtual Machine}}: on some or all Java categories, on some or all Java articles?
    
    
  • 2) Is there a better way to screen for untagged Java material than the searches in the previous section?
    
    
  • 3) What kind of Infoboxes (if any) like {{Infobox software}} should we put in articles?
    
    
  • 4) What are the merits of using {{Template:Did_you_know}} to get visibility on the main Wikipedia page?
    
    
  • 5) We need to discuss WPBanner hooks with the Computing project in order to get specific Quality-rating statistics for Java articles: what do you think about that compromise?
    • a) We ask them to add this in their Template:WikiProject Computing:

|tf 5={{{Java|}}}

|TF_5_LINK = Wikipedia:WikiProject Java

|TF_5_NAME = WikiProject Java

|TF_5_NESTED = Java

|TF_5_TEXT = & nbsp;

|TF_5_IMAGE =

|TF_5_QUALITY = yes

|TF_5_IMPORTANCE = no

|TF_5_ASSESSMENT_CAT = Java articles

• b) Then we can put this kind of tags in Java-related talk pages and get both our own Importance rating and their Quality rating in the stats matrix:

{{wpbs||1=

{{WikiProject_Computing|class=|importance=|auto=yes|Java=yes}}

{{WikiProject_Java|importance=Mid}}

}}

{{to_do}}

• c) To that end, I did the first simulated test on Talk:J2EE application, you can see the stats matrix here, it's great!
• d) Furthermore, after that we could put the {{Compu-stub}} tag in all Java-related article pages NOT already quality-rated and ask TinucherianBot to auto-assess on the talk pages; that would give us a base Quality rating to start with.
