The assessment department focuses on determining and tracking the quality of Wikipedia's aviation articles; the resulting statistics are used to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.
The collaboration department seeks to identify articles that would benefit from a significant collaborative effort; every fortnight, a single article is selected as the focus, and the project attempts to improve it. The current collaboration article is1947 Columbus mid-air collision.
The outreach department acts as a central location for various member outreach work, including project newsletters, recruitment and welcoming banners, and other related initiatives.
The review department conducts both informal peer reviews of articles, as well as formal reviews for A-Class status; it also provides a centralized forum for viewing external reviews (such as featured article candidacies) within the project's scope.
The project includes5 Child projects and 6 task forces for collaboration on specific topics within aviation, such as aircraft, defunct airlines, and gliding.
We encourage all members ofWikipedia:WikiProject Aviation to use the translation feature more often. There are many articles that can be created or expanded via translation.
The{{WikiProject Aviation}} project banner template should be added (notsubst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has a number of optional ones that add various extra features to the banner. The full syntax and usage instructions are listed on the template'sdocumentation page.
