Welcome to '''WikiProject Sailing'''.  This WikiProject has been formed as a collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of sailing and the organization of information and articles on this topic.  This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic.

If you would like to help, please [[#Participants|join]] the project, inquire on the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Sailing|talk page]] and see the [[#Open tasks|to-do list]] below.

==Introduction==

===Scope===
This WikiProject proposes to work on the activity of [[sailing]] including equipment, disciplines, boats, manufacturers, designers and anything else we can think of.

===Goals===
* To grow a group of active experienced members who are interested in Sailing in all its forms and will contribute to the development of sailing related articles, categories, images and templates.
* To expand the base of well-written articles with in-depth content that Wikipedians can use for encyclopedic reference.
* To establish and maintain properly constructed categorization to enable the novice and expert alike to easily navigate and find chosen topics and all related articles.

; [[WP:COTW|Collaboration of the week]]
*'''[[Forces on sails]]''': Look at the discussion at [[Talk:Forces on sails#Expert attention]] and elsewhere in the [[Talk:Forces on sails|Talk page]], which I have just tied to this project. There are two parallel efforts, one in the [[Forces on sails|''main article'']] and one in the [[Talk:Forces on sails/sandbox|''sandbox'']]. It appears that the two editors are unlikely to reach a consensus as to which approach is more appropriate to [[WP:MOS]]. It would help, if other editors would look at both efforts and comment at the [[Talk:Forces on sails#Reorganization.3F|''Reorganization?'' section]].
