Welcome to the '''intelligence task force''', which covers all aspects of [[military intelligence]].  If you have any questions about articles or are generally seeking advice, you're encouraged to ask at the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history|main military history talk page]], or you can directly approach one of the [[#Participants|task force participants]] below. 

The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators|coordinators]] of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history|Military history WikiProject]] can be contacted [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators|here]].

==Scope==
This task force covers the military and national security aspects of intelligence gathering.  It is not intended to cover ''all'' aspects of what may be termed "espionage"; the precise limits of its scope, however, have yet to be defined.

Any article related to this task force should be marked by adding <code>Intel-task-force=yes</code> or <code>Intel=y</code> to the {{tl|WPMILHIST}} project banner at the top of its talk page (see the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Project banner|project banner instructions]] for more details on the exact syntax).  This will automatically place it into [[:Category:Intelligence task force articles]].

A list of the top 500 most popular articles within our scope, as well as the number of page views each article received over the past month, can be found [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Intelligence task force/Popular pages|here]]. 

With most of our articles assessed as Stub- or Start-Class, there's a lot of work to be done.  However, we also have a number of [[WP:GA|good]], [[WP:MHSH/A|A-Class]], and [[WP:FA|featured]] articles, which have been assessed as amongst the best Wikipedia has to offer.  These article serve as a yardstick for what can be achieved and should be aimed for, and can provide ideas about how to write an article and what sources to consult; they are listed below:
