Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Pages to be rated
By popular demand, more or less ... This is begun December 4, 2004, to be a list of maybe about 100 core subjects that would go in a "release" version of Wikipedia. It is small to be tightly focused.
Articles on individual countries are core topics, but beyond the scope of this list because there are so many and their value is clear.
At least as a rule of thumb, biographies are beyond the scope of this list, because there are multitudes and their value when considered individually is too subjective.
Other contenders for core articles include articles on the English language, timelines, maps and any reference material. This is a work in progress. And the list started out closer to 150 than 100, but I hope it will at least not go past 200.
- Maybe we should start sorting these into if they meet the Wikipedia 1.0 or 0.5 Standard or not. If you want me to get started on that, I can soon. --Randy 02:00, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Also see: m:List of articles all languages should have, Wikipedia:List of articles all languages should have, simple:Wikipedia:List of articles all languages should have - which are the same thing with about a thousand. The second of those is bolded for every article that's a Featured Article on en: - David Gerard 21:33, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
