Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer Vision

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by MediaWiki message delivery (talk | contribs) at 15:17, 1 October 2014 (Comment on the WikiProject X proposal: new section). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Welcome to the Computer Vision WikiProject! If you want to see some of the off-wiki organization efforts, you can check out this page.

Goals
  • Improve Wikipedia's coverage of Computer Vision.
  • Assess and improve articles about Computer Vision.
  • Classify and categorize all relevant articles.
  • Bring in Computer Vision experts to assist with the above.
Scope
  • Computer Vision, computational approaches to biological vision, applications of computer vision.
  • Since the field of Computer Vision touches many fields (Computer Science, Engineering, Robotics, Biology, and others), we decided that this topic does not fit neatly within any other WikiProject. As such, we have created a separate project.

Open tasks

  • Mark all Computer Vision articles with the appropriate tag (in the discussion page). This way a bot will find all articles and link them back to this page.
  • Rate/assess all articles.
  • Update the Computer vision page to improve it.
  • Update the list of computer vision topics.

Style, good articles

How to name the lists at the bottom of an article

There are six different types of lists provided at the bottom of the page:

  1. Footnotes - Wikipedia provides a mechanism for footnotes - use that - see Group_(mathematics)
  2. References - Numbered scholarly papers cited in the article - Wikipedia provides a mechanism. See Group_(mathematics), Bird Migration. Adding inline citations is very useful.
  3. Rekated Wikipedia Articles - List of related Wikipedia articles (usually already linked in the text, but nice to have a separate list as well)
  4. Further Reading - List of other sources for `further reading' (typically textbooks, tutorial articles, tutorial web sites)
  5. Code - List of software packages implementing algorithms that are described in the page.
  6. Links - Links to relevant web resources / sites / pages (typically related organizations, companies, …)
  7. Video lectures - e.g. the Khan academy

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time!
