American animation work group

 [edit]
Shortcuts

Welcome to the American animation work group of WikiProject Animation and WikiProject United States. The work group is to better organize information in topics related to animation in the United States.

Scope

This purpose of this project is to standardize the coverage of American animated cartoons within the Wikipedia. This includes deciding how pages should be formatted, which pages should and should not be created, designing templates, etc. This project is not yet completely defined, so feel free to make suggestions on the talk page.

Goals

  • Standardize coverage of American animated films and television
  • Implement infoboxes for individual American animated films
  • Create infoboxes for American animated series and characters
  • Make decisions about individual American animated shorts/episodes

Importance scale

 [edit]
WikiProject article importance scheme
Importance Criteria Example
 Top This article is of the utmost importance to the project, as it provides key information about a major topic that is fundamental to a study of the subject. Felix the Cat
 High This article is very important to the project, as it covers either a general area of knowledge or provides information about a significant topic. Sullivan Bluth Studios
 Mid This article is relatively important to the project, as it provides more specific knowledge of areas that a serious reader would need to understand. Ariel (The Little Mermaid)
 Low This article is significant but has limited importance to the project, as it expands the reader's overall knowledge of the subject into areas of general interest. DC animated universe
 Bottom This article has no real significance to the project, but it covers additional topics of general or specific interest, some of which could be described as trivia, though all are notable in their own right. Others may be articles of high importance to another project that have an indirect connection with American animation. The category was created by the work group of WikiProject Animation to counter-balance "top importance" and to place "mid-importance" into the actual middle. In addition it serves to separate trivia from articles of low but significant importance. Animaniacs Game Pack
 NA Subject importance is not applicable. Generally applies to non-article pages such as redirects, categories, templates, etc. Category:American animation
 ??? Subject importance has not yet been assessed. ???
