The aim of '''WikiProject Cryptography''' is to help editors working on [[cryptography]] articles by providing a repository of information and resources, and providing a [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Cryptography|place for discussions]] that affect more than one article.

{{TOC limit|2}}

== Article alerts ({{watch|Wikipedia:WikiProject Cryptography/Article alerts}}) ==
* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cryptography/Article alerts/Archive|Archived alerts]]
{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Cryptography/Article alerts}}

==Discussions==

* Most discussions are done on the [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Cryptography|talk page]] of this page.

==Statistics==
* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cryptography/Popular pages‎|Popular pages]] — updated monthly
* [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Cryptography articles by quality log|Article assessment log]]
{{Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Cryptography articles by quality statistics}}

== Lists and categories ==

=== Editor oriented lists ===

* [[Index of cryptography articles]] &ndash; Should list all cryptography related articles so please add any new articles to this list. That makes the nifty tool '''[[Special:Recentchangeslinked/Index_of_cryptography_articles|Recent changes in articles about cryptography]]''' work properly.
* [[commons:Category:Cryptography|Category:Cryptography]] &ndash; Crypto images on Wikimedia Commons. (Note that new images should preferably be uploaded to Commons so they can be used in all language Wikipedias.)
* [[:Category:WikiProject Cryptography]] &ndash; Should contain all pages within the WikiProject Cryptography, including some discussions and summaries from the early days of the project.
* [[:Category:Cryptography articles needing expert attention]]
* [[:Category:Cryptography stubs]]
* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cryptography/New articles|Recently created articles on cryptography]] &ndash; The robot [[User:AlexNewArtBot|AlexNewArtBot]] searches for newly created articles several times a week. If they contain any cryptography related words the bot lists those articles here.
<!-- * [[/CryptographyBlog]] &ndash; a sort-of "Current events" in cryptography; the idea is to list news items about cryptography for potential incorporation into our articles to keep them as up-to-date as possible. -->

=== Reader oriented lists ===

* [[Topics in cryptography]] &ndash; An annotated list of cryptography topics
* [[Books on cryptography]] &ndash; An annotated list of suggested readings.
* [[List of cryptographers]] &ndash; An annotated list of cryptographers.
* [[:Category:Cryptography]] &ndash; Should contain all cryptography articles (most of course in subcategories).

We might wish to tag the Talk: pages of articles which are directly about cryptography with a notice about this WikiProject. For this purpose, there is '''{{tl|WikiProject Cryptography}}''', which expands to the following:

== Navigational templates ==

Cryptography has some navigational elements to make it easier for a reader to find related topics.

=== The main crypto navigation box ===

===[[Template:Crypto navbox|<nowiki>{{Crypto navbox}}</nowiki>]]===
It produces:
{{Crypto navbox}}

This template is the main crypto navigation box. It can be added to the bottom of any cryptography article. This template also has some magic so it can include one or more of the specialised crypto navigation boxes inside the same frame.

To only use this template alone add this code to the bottom of an article:
:<code><nowiki>{{crypto navbox}}</nowiki></code>

If you want it to also show for instance the specialised navigation box about stream ciphers then give it the "stream" parameter, like this:
:<code><nowiki>{{crypto navbox | stream}}</nowiki></code>

You can also add several boxes in it, like this:
:<code><nowiki>{{crypto navbox | block | stream}}</nowiki></code>

Note that the parameters come sort of in backwards order. In the example above the stream cipher box will be on top, followed by the block cipher box and then with the main crypto "navbox" at the bottom.

Here is an invalid example since "navbox" should not be a parameter but instead is part of the address of this template:
:<code><s><nowiki>{{crypto stream | navbox}}</nowiki></s></code>

The available specialised boxes are:
:[[Template:Crypto block|block]], [[Template:Crypto stream|stream]], [[Template:Crypto public-key|public-key]], [[Template:Crypto hash|hash]], [[Template:Crypto machines|machines]], [[Template:Crypto classical|classical]]

For more details about these navigation boxes please see the description on the page of the [[Template:Crypto navbox|main crypto navigation box]] itself. Below are examples of usage with the specialised boxes.

===<nowiki>{{Crypto navbox | block | stream}}</nowiki>===
