[edit] Title
WikiProject on Charismatic Christianity
- Charismatic Christianity was chosen because both Pentecostalism and Charismatic movement have arguably narrow technical meanings, where Charismatic Christianity encompasses both
[edit] Scope
This project will create a reliable and comprehensive guide to everything related to Pentecostalism, the Charismatic movement and their offshoots and relatives.
Articles within the project's scope will include people (leaders, preachers, evangelists, theologians), places (churches, colleges), practices (tongues, prayer, spiritual gifts), concepts (teachings, doctrines, movements) and institutions (ministries, organizations, publications). The history of charismatic Christianity (pre-Pentecostal views of the gifts, the beginnings of Pentecostalism, the rise of the charismatic movement) as well as its contemporary manifestations (current preachers, revivals) will be included.
[edit] Potentially controversial inclusions
This project will include groups and figures such as Victor Paul Wierwille and the Children of God who are not considered part of mainstream Pentecostalism or the charismatic movement. Their inclusion is not a judgment on whether they can be considered "Christian", but an acknowledgement that they have important features in common with, or find their roots in, a form of charismatic Christianity.
[edit] Departments
- Assessment - the assessment department.

Related WikiProjects
WikiProject Charismatic Christianity is one of the religion related WikiProjects.
This project began because of a personal interest in aspects of charismatic Christianity and the observation that the current content on Wikipedia on this subject is of inconsistent quality. For example, there are many gaps (as of writing this, there is no entry for Charisma magazine (US) or the Fountain Trust (UK), for example) and many existing articles are poorly sourced or stubs written from a non-NPOV.

[edit] Structure
[edit] Tasks
- Help get the project page into shape, including creating templates
- Identify existing Wiki articles and tag Talk section with WikiProject template
- Identify and list significant gaps
[edit] Adopt an article
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.
