Guidelines[edit]
The goal of Wikipedia is to become a complete, accurate encyclopaedia. The three major content policies (verifiability, no original research and a neutral point of view) and notability contain important advise and rules on how to achieve accuracy, so careful fact checking is strongly recommended.
Remain objective as possible. The point and ideal of Wikipedia is to create an encyclopaedic neutral body of knowledge. Avoid using the first-person point of view (emphasising the facts; not the editor). Explain the evidence (from the links and references) and explain the reasons of any conclusions.
Remember, Wikipedia is not about just writing whatever is true (See: Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not), it is about writing whatever can be verified as truth. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for why we cite sources, and Wikipedia:Citation templates for ways of citing sources properly.
Don't over-categorize[edit]
Having added an article to, say, Category:Massacres in Bangladesh, there's no need to also add that article to Category:War crimes in Bangladesh, Category:Bangladesh Liberation War, Category:History of Bangladesh or Category:Bangladesh. The category hierarchy expresses the fact that every article about Massacres in Bangladesh is an article about War crimes in Bangladesh and an article Bangladesh Liberation War.
Public domain photographs[edit]
According to Bangladesh copyright act of 2000 (covered by The Daily Star), all photographs enter the public domain after sixty years counted from the beginning of the following calendar year after they were first published (i.e. as of 2006, prior to 1946-01-01). Try to upload as many such images as relevant and tag them with {{PD-Bangladesh}}.
The most important task[edit]
|
Place the WikiProject History of Villages of Bangladesh banner on the DISCUSSION (aka "TALK") PAGE of every History of Villages of Bangladesh and History of Village related entry. Here is how to do this:
A list of all pages currently with this banner can be found at Category:WikiProject Bangladesh articles. You can do more to the {{WP Bangladesh}} banner. For additional information check Template:WP Bangladesh. If an article included in Category:WikiProject Bangladesh articles is assessed as B or higher you may try adding {{Portal|Bangladesh}} to the article page, under a section called "See also" or "External links". |
Reviewing AFDs[edit]
Add the page Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Villages of Bangladesh to your watchlist to receive notifications of Bangladesh related articles that are nominated for deletion.
Keep the list updated by adding any relevant AFD nominations you may come across and remove any that have been closed.
Adopt an article scheme[edit]
- For an extensive list of articles pertaining to this project see Category:WikiProject Villages of Bangladesh articles
Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, formatting and adding images (if possible) for either a non-existent article, a stub or a very short article. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced. If you have adopted an article, please, feel free to add that information here.
An appropriate barnstar[edit]
To award a participant with a barnstar you may make use of - {{subst:WikiProject Villages of Bangladesh/barnstar|message ~~~~}}. It would look something like:

Sources[edit]
The goal of Wikipedia is to become a complete, accurate encyclopedia. Verifiability is an important tool to achieve accuracy, so it is strongly recommended to check facts. However, don't be too keen to remove unverified information at the cost of completeness.
Levels[edit]
- Primary sources: Piece of information or evidence that was created by someone who witnessed first hand or was part of the historical events that are being described".
- Secondary sources: Piece of writings which were not penned contemporaneously with the events in question".
- Tertiary sources
