Wikipedia:WikiProject Trucks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome to the WikiProject Trucks. This is a WikiProject to improve articles on trucks, truckparts and truck manufacturers. Please feel free to edit this page, but discussions should be kept on the talk page of this project.
- Goals
| This WikiProject, an open group of Wikipedia editors, is believed to be semi-active. Although there may be fewer editors here than in the past, anyone is welcome to participate in the group or to leave a message for us. Remove the
|Semi-active parameter from this template if activity resumes or if this tag was changed in error. If almost no activity occurs in this WikiProject, consider replacing this tag with {{WikiProject status|Inactive}}. |
The purpose of this WikiProject is to co-ordinate articles on light, medium and heavy trucks. It aims to improve the coverage of manufacturers and models, and to make articles on trucks uniform and informative.
- Scope
This project proposes to work with all pages related to the type of road or off-road vehicle commonly known as truck or lorry.
Guidelines
- We shall strive to follow the Wikipedia:Manual of Style.
- A lot of useful guidelines can be found at our sister Wikipedia:WikiProject Automobiles.
