This project aims to expand Wikipedia's fashion coverage.
If you would like to help, feel free to add yourself to the list of participants, or just look over the How you can help section below. Also of interest is the Fashion Portal associated with this project.
Go here to view articles tagged with {{WikiProject Fashion}}, organized by importance and state of completeness.
1. Tag and assess fashion articles[edit]If you see untagged fashion articles, add {{WikiProject Fashion}} to their talk pages. When you tag articles, it's best if you also assess them and rate their importance. See the template documentation for more information. We also need experienced editors to assess tagged articles that haven't been assessed yet--see Category:Unassessed fashion articles.
2. Improve our most important articles[edit]Either add to the list or check something off!
- Article requests: Main list of fashion article requests. Please add requests for individual articles to this list.
- Articles for the designers that are red-linked on Fall 2008 fashion weeks; and all the red-linked Dress of the Year designers and Coty Award & Neiman Marcus Fashion Award winners.
- Fix issues with articles in Category:Fashion articles needing attention and Category:Fashion articles needing expert attention
- Upload requested photographs of fashion, clothing and cosmetics
- Create infoboxes for clothing companies, and editors (should include original designer/magazine, current designer/magazine, etc)
- Split designer and label articles. Oscar de la Renta -> Oscar de la Renta (designer), Oscar de la Renta (fashion label)
- Expand articles in Category:Fashion stubs
- Translate History of clothing from French
- Re-make the Jacket article. Jackets are important, and this is really poor at the moment. We should remove some of the non-notable items on the list, at the very least contain the mess in a separate list article, write about jackets, and have a sorted list
- Improve 1945-1960 in fashion, 1960s in fashion, 1970s in fashion, 1980s in fashion, 1990s in fashion, and 2000s in fashion to be up to the quality of the other fashion history articles.
- Encourage editors who refer to 'current fashion' or similar to include a reference date. When such an entry is found, update it if needed with a reference date if such can be established.
- Can I suggest a merging of the articles Clothing in the Ragtime Era and, oh, 1910s in fashion or whichever is appropriate? The first article seems a bit thin and could probably do with being folded into something more comprehensive. Also, it was a complete orphan -- the link above is its first anywhere -- and I only chanced across it from a category. Artemis-Arethusa (talk) 23:24, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Improve the Dress article. Most of the sections contain photos only, and need text added. The article has only 1448 bytes of readable prose. (Compare the Good Article Crinoline, with 22 kB of readable prose.) Chickadee46 (talk) 00:50, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Revert (or otherwise evaluate, and / or "deal with") the BOGUS edits done on Feb. 8 and 10, 2020 to the article Torrid_(clothing_retailer). They were all perpetrated by some IP editors ("2601:249:1780:6000:cd5b:1b52:4dae:7da4" on Feb. 8, and "2601:249:1780:6000:da8:9c8a:d399:79a8" on Feb. 10) who have NEVER edited any other articles, and in fact have NEVER done any editing other than these (BOGUS looking) edits. I would revert them myself, but I am unfamilar with this article, and with this entire WikiProject ("Wikipedia:WikiProject_Fashion") so ... I thought it would be best to -- at least -- ask [for some "advice"] here, first. Any comments would be appreciated. Mike Schwartz (talk) 16:06, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
