This is a WikiProject, a collaboration area and open group of editors dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of a particular topic, or to organizing some internal Wikipedia process. Please see the Guide to WikiProjects and the Directory of WikiProjects for more information. |
Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Human rights. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

Parentage
WikiProject Human rights stands aside from other WikiProjects, but it is most related, of course to Wikipedia:WikiProject Law, Wikipedia:WikiProject International law, and, to lesser degree, to Wikipedia:WikiProject Anti war movements and ideologies

Adopt an article
Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.
- Example article: User:Example
- Reproductive rights: User:Phyesalis
- International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights: User:IdiotSavant
- International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance: User:IdiotSavant
- Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination: User:IdiotSavant

Requests
- Human rights in Canada
- Please move the article Female Genital Cutting to Female Genital Mutilation, this name is correct and encyclopedic, as you see in WHO and UN's articles. Thanks--Taranet (talk) 17:58, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Please assign initial rating to a newly created article Committee of Concerned Scientists. Since I created the article myself, I'd prefer if someone else assigned the rating. Thanks, Nsk92 (talk) 08:59, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
Resources
At the moment the Washington University in St. Louis Film and Media Archive has a collection of interview transcripts that might useful as resources covering the civil rights movement in america until 1965. In the coming months, interviews covering the period from 1965-1985 will become available. The interviews were conducted in the 1980s. These might be useful in providing clearer personal perspectives, and accounts from both big names in particular civil rights struggles and smaller community perspectives from within the movement. Here's the link Eyes on the Prize (episodes 1-6) interview transcripts Tychoish (talk) 15:45, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
