Contribution Paths

The following are "paths" that can be used as suggestions for where our members' efforts can be focused for the best effect. If you are wondering what you can do to be the most help to the project, take a look at these and see what fits your mood and/or proclivities:

The Finisher

Wikiproject:Industrial has dozens of articles rated as B-class — These articles are already mostly complete, well-researched, and well-written. If you have a mind for detail and quality writing, why not adopt one or more of these articles and advance them to A-class or Good Article class? Click here to see our current B-class articles: Category:B-Class Industrial music articles.

If you aren't quite ready for A/GA-level work, then consider elevating one of our hundreds of C-class articles to B-class as a warm up? Click here to see our current C-class articles: Category:C-Class Industrial music articles.

The Saviour

Start and Stub level articles make up the majority of Wikiproject:Industrial's assessed articles; these are also the most likely to be AfD-ed, PROD-ed, or otherwise speedily deleted. While it's true that deletion is a legitimate action for articles that don't meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, we'd like to think that if we've gone through the effort to create and assess an article that it should be given the chance to become a more complete article. This task is two-fold:

This is an excellent task if you already have some knowledge of an article's subject, but it is also a great way to learn more about the subject. Click here to see our current stub class and start class articles or use the cleanup work list links below to find articles that have already been identified as needing help:

The Creator/Reanimator

Do you have a special interest and knowledge in a topic (band, artist, label, event, etc.) in industrial music that doesn't exist in article space? It might be that no one has yet thought to create an article for that topic, or it once existed but ended up redlinked. If you are confident that the topic is notable, and that you can support the topic with reliable sources, why not create an article? Be sure to tag your draft's talk page with {{WikiProject Industrial}} and put an entry on the project's Review page when you are close to submitting your draft.

The Disc Jockey

There are a huge number of album articles under Wikiproject:Industrial and, unfortunately, most of these are in Stub and Start class. While there is a Wikiproject for albums, they have hundreds of thousands of articles labeled under their project - we'll have to take care of our own. There are specific notability requirements for music recordings — just covering these bases and adding some additional content is a quick and easy way to elevate album articles to a better class.

The Guardian

Wikipedia helpfully compiles a list of alerts for articles in Wikiproject:Industrial that have a pending action or request. This can include requests for comment, discussions for moving, merging, or deleting an article, requests for peer review and so on. Visit the project's Alerts page frequently to see where your input might be needed. Additionally, you should consider populating your personal Watchlist with articles that you feel are important and monitor that list for changes and actions that affect them.

The Photographer

Do you have photographs of industrial bands/artists? Providing images on Wikipedia is fraught with copyright peril, but if you are the creator/owner of said images you can enhance existing Wikipedia:Industrial articles by adding them as appropriate. See Wikipedia:Images for more information.

The Archivist

The first 20 years of Industrial music culture occurred before the Web existed, and good luck finding anything from the Web — let alone anything reliable — from before the Internet Archive came along. That leaves about 30 years of Industrial music history that was only documented in print newspapers, magazines, and fanzines. Maybe you have a pile of these sitting in your attic? Or perhaps you have access to one of the academic journal aggregators? Find those reviews and interviews and see what gaps you can fill in.
