[[Image:Astro constel task force.svg|right|100px|thumb|[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Astronomy/Constellations Task Force|constellations<br/>task force]]]] Constellations Task Force is an effort to fix the constellations articles, so that they look navigable, intriguing and fit for amateur astronomy – the one community that actually '''uses''' the constellations. You're welcome to edit here, or discuss on the '''[[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Astronomy/Constellations_Task_Force|talk page]]'''.

==Purpose==

I started this project because the constellations looked so ''sprawling''. There's no uniform philosophy behind the constellation articles, there certainly were many philosophies overlaid by new philosophies on philosophies, making an unpleasant mess, rather than order. My intention is to streamline the constellations, so that they are delectable for self-learning. Imagine a boy or girl in the lower teenages, using binoculars and owning a telescope or so, but needing some observation guides. That's my proposal for primary public, whereas the grownup and professional counterparts (which includes advanced amateurs) also can "profit" from reading the constellation pages, but more as link sets to listings of interest. <span style="background-color: #FFFF80; color: #800000">''[[User:Rursus|Rursus]]''</span> 15:15, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

==WikiProject Task Force for Constellations assessments==

This task force assesses the constellations according to three measures:
structure, correctness and completeness. Since this is less about the contents, than the structure completeness and the map and facts correctness, the requirements for making good points for this task force is much less than a proper  quality assessment.

=== Structure ===

<span style="color: #800000; background-color: #FFFF80">'''STUBBY! Feel free to define criteria here!'''</span>

In the long run all constellations should contain the same thing in a similar order as applicable to that constellation (mythologies of deLacaille constellations are by nature short and not very mythical – although '''not''' nonexistent). The general structure is yet to be determined. Said: <span style="color: #800000; background-color: #FFFF80; padding: 1px 2px 3px 2px">''[[User:Rursus|Rursus]]''</span> 14:08, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

=== Correctness ===

Correctness criteria:
:A. Per table below: star map/star box OK (2.a.), primary myth text conventional (4.), correct inventor and invention time (5.).
:B. Otherwise no '''obvious''' factual error.

The assessment levels for this correctness are:
:1. checked but not fulfilling A.
:2. fulfilling A. but not B.
:3. fulfilling A. and B. and therefore "correct".

=== Completeness ===

<span style="color: #800000; background-color: #FFFF80">'''STUBBY! Feel free to define criteria here!'''</span>

==Constellations Fix – 2007 Raid==
In order to do this, they must be revised according to the following criteria:

# it is hard to install, because it has tough dependencies: TeX, dvi to PS conversion, ghostscript and some pixmap conversion/snapshotter,
# therefore it's very hard bound to a Unix like environment. PP3 is not good for star maps here, it's perfect for TeX documentation! For Wikipedia a simpler script/program should generate SVG directly, independent of other programs, without a heavy GUI, configurable through text files like PP3.

===Constellation Review===

It seems more and more unsecure whether some of the "former constellations" ever were regarded as autonomous. Such cases are Asterion and Chara in Canes Venatici, Linum Piscium, Piscis Borealis and Piscis Australis in Pisces. One shouldn't confuse independent constellations with asterisms within constellations that were referred to when describing stars and comet positions within a constellation.
