Novels WikiProject • (Novels, Novellas, Novelettes & Short stories) Announcements and open tasks |
→ Please help with tagging articles!
- Critique (Featured Article): no candidates currently - "10 achieved"
- Wikipedia wide peer reviews: Original Stories from Real Life
- Novels WikiProject Peer reviews : Master and Commander
- Improve: The Body in the Library • Furies of Calderon • Wolf Brother • The Monk • The English Patient • Bones of the Moon • More...
- Create: Black Cocktail • Blackthorn Winter • London, 1850 • More...
- Novel without Infobox (auto list): many novel articles do not have an infobox - and need one (auto generated list) - may need expansion of article too
- Our Collaboration Department is continuing with one more title The_History_of_Tom_Jones,_a_Foundling for the current month. Get collaborating on the article and also look at nominating other titles to be considered.
- The new article Fictional locations now exists - as a companion article to Fictional characters - but it is still a stub and could do with plenty more imput to improve it.
- Another new article A Taste for Death (P.D. James novel) now exists - but it is also still a stub and could do with plenty more imput to improve it.
- A new Infobox exists to support the growing number of "Short Story" articles that are tagged as part of the project - take a look at it and comment on it's talk page. I would suggest we use it for "Short Stories and "Novelettes" and leave the main "Book infobox" for "Novels" and "Novellas".
- New hitlists added to the main worklist.
- Pages that only exist as redirects: Men at Arms
