__NOTOC__
Welcome to the '''WikiProject Transport'''!  We are a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|group]] of Wikipedia editors that work on topics related to [[transport]].  We have a goal of presenting all articles in a consistent, legible and informative format.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them on '''[[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Transport|our discussion page]]''' or try for a quicker response on the project coordinator's (currently {{user|Rcsprinter123}}) talk page.

{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Transport/Section header|What do we do?|color=#1d824f}}

Our goal is to build the foremost free-content encyclopedia of  transport in the English language by:
* Creating, improving, and maintaining articles that describe all aspects of transport;
* Providing guidelines and recommendations for editors of transport articles; and 
* Serving as the central point of discussion for all issues related to transport in Wikipedia.

This project was created on 25 June 2004.

*[{{fullurl:Wikipedia:WikiProject Transport/participants|action=edit&section=0}} Add your name and interests to the member list].
* Be an ambassador for the task force by displaying our userboxes on your user page.
* See another editor who seems interested in editing transport articles?  A tasteful invitation to join a WikiProject is always in order.
* It is always nice to check the current [[WP:GAC#Transport|transport good article candidates]] and review one if you can.

To add an article to the Project, place the Transport Project Banner ({{tlx|WikiProject Transport}}) at the top of the article's '''talk''' page. 

This form of the banner is suitable for most new articles: 

<div style="width: 23em; background: #dddddd; border: 1px solid black; padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;">
<pre style="overflow:auto;">
{{WikiProject Transport
 |class=
 |importance=
 |attention=
 |listas=
 |maritime = <!-- set to yes if part of the Maritime transport task force -->
 |maritime-importance=
}}
</pre></div>

For more information on tagging and assessing articles, see the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Transport/Assessment|assessment department]].

<div id="SCOPE">{{anchor|taskforce}}{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Transport/Section header|Task forces|color=#1d824f}}</div>
A [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Guide/Task_forces|task force]] is a type of WikiProject that has a special relationship with its parent project.  Task forces will typically share resources for peer reviews and A-class reviews.  A task force should populate the parent's "articles by quality" category.  Also, a task force may conduct its discussions on the parent project's discussion page to facilitate discussion and it may use the parent project's banner.

It may be in the best interest of a smaller project to [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Guide/Task_forces#Converting_existing_projects_to_task_forces|re-brand itself as a task force]].

Current task forces of WP:TRANSPORT are:

* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Transport/Maritime transport task force|Maritime transport task force]]
* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject China/Transportation task force|China transport task force]] (jointly with WikiProject China)
*[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Germany/Transportation|Germany transport task force]] (jointly with WikiProject Germany)
*[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Nepal/Transportation|Nepal transport task force]] (jointly with WikiProject Nepal)
