Some [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]s have formed a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|project]] to better organize information in articles related to Microsoft's '''[[.NET Framework]]'''.  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 [[{{NAMESPACE}} talk:{{PAGENAME}}|talk page]] and see the [[Wikipedia:to-do list|to-do list]] there.

For more information on WikiProjects, please see [[Wikipedia:WikiProjects]] and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices]].

==Hierarchy definition==
No classification of this project has been defined.

==Goals==
'''The main goal is that Wikipedia on .NET would be the reference of all issues related to .NET technology.

==Tasks==

*[[September 2005]]:
:Complete all categorization and stub tags as well as {attention} tags or {cleanup} tags into articles before taking care of the content.
# Categorize all the remaining articles related to .NET. We will revise this task before the end of September 2005. '''(In progress)'''
# Make sure there are no duplicate categorization in a single article. [[:Category:.NET programming languages]] is child of [[:Category:.NET]]. '''(In progress)'''
# Tag {stubs} on short articles.
# Check for any articles that need {attention} tags or {cleanup}.

*[[October 2005]]:
:reinvent the structure of articles and discuss them on the project talk page.

*[[November 2005]]:
:Start the hard work; concentrate on content.

==Adopt an article==
Similar to the [[Wikipedia:Collaboration of the week|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.

===New Wikipedia articles related to .NET===
Please feel free to list your new .NET-related articles here (newer articles at the top, please). Any new articles that have an interesting or unusual fact in them should be suggested for the [[Template talk:Did you know|Did you know?]] box on the [[Main]] Wikipedia page.  DYK has a 72 hr. time limit from the creation of the article.
<!--For one example of listing new articles, see [[Wikipedia:Japanese Wikipedians' notice board#It's new!]]. Listing the articles often gets other editors to help improve and expand a new article.-->

==Requests==
Please Cleanup and remove biased information in this article: [[Comparison of C sharp to vb dot net]]

:I have used both these languages extensively since .NET emerged and I don't really find too much to complain of in the linked article.  In fact, I think it's a pretty good comparison, better than I see most places on the web.  The one thing I would add would be a discussion of the Windows Designer added to C#, which makes it competitive with VB for rapid development.  I might also add a mention of the fact that VB has nearly twice as many keywords as C#, which probably says something about the two languages but I'm not sure what--that VB takes longer to learn all of it?  That it provides some extra help for some things?  Anyway, would you mind clarifying why you consider the article biased?  Or has it been cleaned up already?
