Goals

[edit]
  1. Improve major articles, try to get some of them to Good article status.
  2. Improve minor articles.

    3. Life, the Universe and Everything
    4. So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish
    5. Mostly Harmless
    6. And Another Thing... (novel)
  2. Improve the article for the Hitchhiker's film per standards of Wikiproject Films: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (film). This must include proper inline referencing!
  3. Include proper inline referencing for other major articles:

    2. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Tertiary to Quintessential Phases
    3. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (TV series)
  4. Add details into the new article, Differences in versions of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Be careful not to copyvio the essay published in SFX magazine.

[edit]
  1. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series) was improved to the level of FA, the third Hitchhiker's/Douglas Adams related FA.

Adopt an article

[edit]

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, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. 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.
