| Ok - I have been working on priority topics and have compiled the list below and am trying to work through them one by one.  One of the most critical tasks - I think - is to complete some of the major headings as the subpages are then logically identified and can thus be listed. Please feel free to go in and edit away, add to the list etc.  It would also be helpful if some editors would look at completing or moving towards approval some of the articles I have started (there would be a clear COI if I did this).  Many thanks in advance!

Please add to this as you see fit. I would like to ask that these be made '''High Priority''' topics and anyone who can even begin one of these with a stub or better yet a developed article please do so! Many thanks in advance!

I also feel A sub-group needs to be set up to handle each individual species of human ancestor e.g. [[Australopithecus africanus]], all living primate species e.g. [[Homo sapiens]], each major fossil hominin and primate locality e.g. [[Gladysvale]], and each major fossil discovery e.g. [[Taung child]] - (a monumental task but stubs on each to start would be great - go to [[Primate]] to see a comprehensive list of living primates).

Revision as of 00:20, 13 September 2007

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.

Priority List
Ok - I have been working on priority topics and have compiled the list below and am trying to work through them one by one. One of the most critical tasks - I think - is to complete some of the major headings as the subpages are then logically identified and can thus be listed. Please feel free to go in and edit away, add to the list etc. It would also be helpful if some editors would look at completing or moving towards approval some of the articles I have started (there would be a clear COI if I did this). Also, you will note in the list below that I have marked in bold and italics many of the articles. The reason I have done this is that I believe that these are either High priority "stem" articles or they are articles that I believe people will search for frequently or when begining a search on a topic. Please add to this as you see fit. I would like to ask that these be made High Priority topics and anyone who can even begin one of these with a stub or better yet a developed article please do so! Many thanks in advance!
