WikiProject Religion aims primarily to organise, neutrally develop, and improve the series of articles on religion in accord with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. It also seeks to ensure NPOV across articles related to religion. It is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page.
The scope of this project is all articles in the Category:Religion. Specifically, this project hopes to deal with all articles relating to the religious observances, rituals, and practices, the histories of such practices, and related biographical articles. (For articles dealing with the stories which often contribute to the development of such practices, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Mythology.) However, given the existence of several projects covering specific areas of the category, we will be placing the majority of our attention in the following areas:
- (1) We will work to create, improve, and maintain those articles which deal with religion in a non-sectarian sense (God, theology, religion, etc.), as well as articles about specific religions which do not yet have projects which deal with them. This would include, but not be limited to, those listed on the List of religions, which do not clearly fall under the scope of any of the daughter projects below. As a rule-of-thumb guideline, this would include those faiths which have no existing projects and those articles whose content relates to at least three, non-overlapping, extant projects. Also, those articles about specific religions with extant projects which are of significant importance to one or more of the topics in the broad religion field, will be considered within the scope of this project.
- (2) We will assist in the assessment of articles in the field of religion, particularly those articles which have not yet been assessed.
- (3) We will try to assist in the maintenance of the Portal:Religion and other religion-related portals.
- Add all articles within the direct scope of this project to the Wikipedia:WikiProject Religion/Articles list by category.
- Contribute to Supernaturalism : Vote on Handling of Article Cleanup,
- Check recent changes for recent changes to these articles.
- Review Wikipedia:WikiProject Religion/Encyclopedic articles and related pages for any topics which receive encyclopedic coverage in other sources which may not exist here yet.
- Answer requests for comments
- Check Category:Religion articles needing attention for any articles requiring immediate attention.
- Provide assessments listed under "Requesting an assessment", following the project standards.
- Improve current GA-class and A-class articles to FA standards so they may pass a featured article review.
- Improve C-class, B-class or A-class articles to GA standards that have not passed a GA review.

- Find images for Category:Wikipedia requested photographs of religious subjects and Category:Wikipedia requested photographs of people associated with religion
- Sort out the article Priest shortage in the Roman Catholic Church. There's been a tag asking for experts on religion since 2009 and sources contradict each other about whether the numbers of Roman Catholics are increasing, remaining steady or decreasing. There is also contradiction over the number of priests/seminarians.
Improve the bird's eye view
The entire subject and Wikipedia's coverage of it is intended to be summarized in the Outline of religion and its branch outlines. These are in turn is part of Wikipedia's outline system which is one of Wikipedia's main contents systems.
Please look it over and fill-in missing topics. If Wikipedia has an article or article section about those topics, please add links to them.
While analyzing the outline, please answer the following questions (and fix the outline as needed):
- What's missing?
- Is the structure of the outline (sections and indents) representative of the subject?
- Does the outline help understand the relationships between the topics presented in the best way possible?
The overall purpose of the outline is to help readers comprehend the subject by showing what belongs to it, and within the subject what belongs to what.
The outline is a taxonomy of the subject, and also serves as a table of contents and navigation aid to browse Wikipedia's articles (and article sections) about the subject.
It is also a useful tool for the WikiProject to analyze, plan, develop, and revise related material. It is a hub from which to organize related topics.
It was built as a "reverse outline", a structural model of an existing work, which in addition to being a summary of the work, can reveal the gaps and other weaknesses for revision purposes.
Please help improve it.
It's our bird's eye view.
Thank you.

- Our assessment department. We also now have a page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Religion/Assessment/Top-importance articles where we may come to some degree of consensus as to which articles should be held as being of top importance to the project, and possibly concentrate some effort on them.
