[edit] Project scope

Our project is designed to help collaborate a group effort in improving all articles related to the television series Lost. It is free for all and anybody can join, even if you are new to Wikipedia or just haven't edited the Lost articles before! You can help us out in small ways by just fixing a typographical error here and there or you could write extended summaries for Lost episodes. You could even help cite things to help make all articles related to Lost comprehensive and factual.

Some of the core project goals are:

To maintain cited and comprehensive articles related to Lost.
To create a consistent and detailed look for each page.

A list of participants can be found at Category:WikiProject Lost participants.

Technically speaking, anyone who edits / contributes to Lost-related articles is a participant, and there are no requirements other than that. If one wishes they can further identify themselves with the project by listing their name as a participant. This helps spread the word about the project and can help other editors see what types of articles that user is interested in editing.

To add yourself to the project listing add the following to your user page.
