Collaborations
WikiProject Genetics collaborates on projects with several academic journals. If you're preparing articles for either of these collaborations and need help or advice from a Wikipedian, reach out to an active taskforce member.
- Gene Wiki
The journal Gene publishes review articles on human gene families that are partnered with Wikipedia pages through the Gene Wiki initiative.
- PLOS topic pages
The journal PLOS Genetics publishes review articles on core genetics topics that replace existing Wikipedia pages through the Topic Page initiative.
Tasks
If you are interested in editing, please help improve these pages! Even if you are new to editing, don't worry about making mistakes. People will be watching and helping as needed.
Barnstars will be available to anyone who completes a major task!
To-do list
- Nuclear gene (13 daily views) is a high-importance stub. Let's improve it!
- Over 400 articles have unknown importance. Please use WP:AWB with the Kingbotk plugin or User:Evad37/rater to help assess these articles.
- As of July 2019, there are more stub articles (1810) than start (1758) articles. Please help us increase our number of start-class articles to be greater than our number of stubs. We are currently 97.13% of the way there!
- Create missing gene stubs for WP:notable genes using a tool:
- Look up the "Gene ID" number on NCBI Gene for a missing gene entry in Homo sapiens
- Append that number to
http://genewiki.sulab.org/wiki/article/create/(e.g., TAAR9: 134860 – http://genewiki.sulab.org/wiki/article/create/134860/) - Navigate to that url, click "Toggle Stub Code", and copy/paste the output into a new Wikipedia article about the gene
