'''CONGRATULATIONS!''' to the Literature Workgroup -- our toplevel entry for [[Literature]] is now approved!! [[User:Russell Potter|Russell Potter]] 16:34, 11 May 2007 (CDT)
To get this group underway, I've created this page. Please feel free to edit and get involved.  We do need to decide on subgroups and update and expand topics.

==Suggestions for subgroups==
These are just thoughts, can we get a discussion going? One way to go would be to organise literature on language
*Literature in English
*Literature in Spanish
*Literature in Indian Languages
*Literature in Arabic
*Literature in Russian
*Literature in Chinese
*Literature in East Asian Languages
*and so on
Or to use region-based categories common in university departments, eg:
*English Literature
*American Literature
*Spanish Literature
*Indian Literature
*Arabic Literature
*South Asian Literature
*East Asian Literature
*Chinese Literature
*Sudanese Literature
*and so on
We could also begin with categories like Prose, Poetry etc ...

==Categories and subgroups==
While these high-level categories may have their uses in terms of lateral organization -- each, presumably, would involve a sub-group of editors and authors fluent in the requisite language(s) -- for the time being I think we would do better to see what areas of interest current editors and authors have, and set about working on articles.  Ad-hoc working subgroups could then be created as needed if, for instance, a group of people working on Victoria literature, or the Epic, or the poetry of Languedoc, or graphic novels, or whatever.  In other words, I think for now we should write 'from the bottom up' as it were.  There may also be a need to edit from the top down at some point, but this will be far easier once we've all done some work on specific articles together.
Let's continue to discuss this in the forum!

Workgroups are no longer used for group communications, but they still are used to group articles into fields of interest. Each article is assigned to 1-3 Workgroups via the article's Metadata.
