WikiProject Crusades has three task forces each assigned to a different aspect of the crusades. These task forces are named after military orders from the time period, but have their official names as well:
|
The Crusades Military Task Force (Or Knights Templar) is dedicated to battles, sieges, sacks, and other military events on all sides of the crusades. The task force is responsible for covering these topics with verifiable sources and an unbiased and neutral point of view. Editors must not report on these events (and their statistics) incorrectly to push a false narrative about what happened and/or the belligerents involved, and must not exaggerate nor understate their facts. Articles that are not about warfare are still applicable to this task force if they relate to the military (like treaties and truces), and must be treated with the same care and precision as the others. |
|
The Crusades Biography Task Force (Or Knights Hospitaller) is dedicated to writing biographies about notable figures on all sides of the Crusades. The task force is responsible for documenting the lives and legacies of people associated with the Crusades and/or the Crusading movement from an entirely unbiased point of view. Editors must not use unreliable sources, manipulative or biased language, and/or cherry-picked information to make a person look better or worse, and events must not be exaggerated nor understated. Biographies about Crusades historians also fall into this category, and must be treated with the same care and precision as the others. |
|
The Crusades Locations Task Force (Or Teutonic Order) is dedicated to writing about important places associated with the crusades. The task force covers all types of locations, including kingdoms and nations, villages, battlefields, fortresses, churches and mosques, etc. The task force is responsible for covering facts about these locations and the events of the crusades associated with them using high-quality sources and writing from an unbiased and neutral point of view. The task force should focus on writing about events related to the Crusades, and should preferably not stray into writing about the same location during other time periods unless the Crusades remain relevant to the subject matter. |
