Welcome! This is the homepage of a group of Wikipedians interested in writing about the classical world. We aim to make excellent all articles relating to Classical Greece and Ancient Rome by:
- Coordinating improvements to classics articles among Wikipedia editors
- Providing an area for discussing classics and classics articles
- Collating resources on writing classics articles
New members are always welcome; you can join at the recruitment page. If you require a project member's help with a matter of article content, please ask on the talk page. If you aren't sure how to help us improve Classics coverage on Wikipedia, read on!
What do we do?
Our goal is to produce the definitive free-content encyclopedia of classical and late antiquity, by:
- Writing articles about classical and late antiquity, and related topics such as history of scholarship and the classical tradition.
- Improving our articles to ensure readers receive well-written, comprehensive, accurate, reliably referenced, up-to-date, and stable content.
- Supporting other projects, groups, and editors who are striving to achieve the same goals.
What have we achieved?

How can you help?
The Project Tasks page highlights classics articles that need attention and improvement. The requests from other members section allows editors to specifically request assistance on articles they are writing; you are welcome to add a request from other member. The general backlogs section is an overview of the project's automatically-created indexes of articles.
What resources can we offer?
We provide a number of guides for budding classics articles at Guides, including: Writing a Good Article (GA), Writing a Featured Article (FA), and Finding sources and scholarship.
We provide a number of templates for improving the reader's experience of classics articles:
- Use this template at the top of talk pages for Classics articles, meaning it will receive the attention of WikiProject members. Instructions for the template are here.
- Put this template at the bottom of an article with a significant relation to Ancient Greece. For an example, see Achilles Tatius.
- Put this template at the bottom of an article with a significant relation to Ancient Rome. For an example, see SPQR.
- Organises the boxed overview ("infobox") of articles relating to Roman castra, and also articles about settlements/cities. For an example, see Porolissum.
- Proclaim your passion for Classics loudly and proudly! Use this on your userpage or user talk page.
|
These stub templates can be placed at the bottom of your very short Classics articles. They will help advertise to Wikipedia's writers (and readers) that the article requires expansion.
