Shortcuts

This page in a nutshell: Here, we build outlines! To supplement searches, for when the search box isn't enough.

Outlines are are hierarchically structured topics lists.

If you like one or more of the following:

to organize subjects' topics into a tree structure
to make site maps
structured lists
tables of contents
classified indexes

Then, you've come to the right place! For, Wikipedia's outlines are all of the above.

We're mapmakers, metaphorically speaking[edit]

Wikipedia's goal is to provide knowledge. But knowledge is only useful if you can find it and make sense of it. The main limitation of a search box is that it can only look for what you already know exists: it is not a map. Like with a map, the function of an outline, and the mission of this WikiProject, is to show readers what exists and help them get to where it is — except that, in this case, the destinations are Wikipedia articles rather than physical locations. Outlines serve as site maps of Wikipedia, by subject. And while maps help navigate the landscape, outlines show the knowledgescape of a subject.

More metaphors[edit]

An outline is also like a table of contents or a menu, except that, instead of listing chapter titles in a book or food dishes in a restaurant, outlines present the topics in a subject.

Another useful metaphor is that each page in Wikipedia is a teleportation chamber. To use the search box for teleporting, you specify your destination subject. An outline is a teleportation chamber with its own destination registry. Each outline lists the available target topics, and clicking on one instantly takes you there. You don't need to know where you are going in advance — the list helps you choose.

Outlines present the topics belonging to a subject as a tree structure, using sections, subsections, and indented item entries to signify branching of the tree. As tree structures, outlines provide the following benefits:

They can help the user see how a particular topic fits into the whole subject.
They also show how topics are related to each other: what belongs to what, and what topics fall into the same sections.
Having a subject laid out on one page saves time. Split up as categories, a 76-section subject would require visiting 76 different category pages to see all the subject's topics, which entails a lot of back-tracking. Scrolling down an outline page is much more convenient and faster.
The bird's eye view provided by outlines allows users to see patterns in the information in a relatively painless way.
Through how they are organized, outlines help users find individual pages, even when they don't know precisely what they are looking for, or exactly what it is called.
Outlines reveal gaps in their subjects' coverage that need to be filled in with new articles.

Lists of outlines[edit]

Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines
Category:Wikipedia outlines
Outlines listed on All pages with prefix (this only shows the outlines with titles that start with "Outline of ")

Scope[edit]

Each outline article is a list of a subject's topics arranged hierarchically to show the relationships between them: those that are the most important, general entries and those that give more specialist detail. Outlines show the structure of articles about a subject, opening another way besides searching, for navigating it. They could be considered Wikipedia's equivalent to Brittanica's Propædia.

Each outline is intended to help the reader become familiar with the subject it presents, and also serves as a table of contents or site map to that subject's coverage on Wikipedia. Outlines are different from portals or indexes. While a portal focuses solely on well-developed featured content, an outline's main purpose is to direct readers through a subject's related articles. Indexes are intended to be comprehensive alphabetical lists of articles related to subject, but finding something in an alphabetical index can be difficult if one does not know the article title (and if one does, one hardly needs the index). Outlines might not list every article in a subject, and often their links lead to lists or other outlines to provide further detail. For an example, compare Portal:Japan, Index of Japan-related articles, and Outline of Japan.

Announcements[edit]

The outline drafts have been restored[edit]

Drafts that sit too long without edits eventually get deleted.

Upon request at DRV, most of the outline drafts have been restored.

For the current list of outline drafts in the Drafts: namespace, see #Work on drafts, below.

There's now an outline that is a featured list[edit]

Congratulations, MeegsC! The list you nominated, Outline of lichens, has been promoted to featured status, recognizing it as one of the best lists on Wikipedia. The nomination discussion has been archived.

This is a rare accomplishment and you should be proud. If you would like, you may nominate it to appear on the Main page as Today's featured list. Keep up the great work! Cheers, Giants2008 (talk) via FACBot (talk) 00:25, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Outline of the week![edit]

The outline of the week is:

Outline of artificial intelligence

Please help improve it.

Article alerts[edit]

This project is served by Article alerts, which can be seen in this section directly below, or at Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines/Article alerts. This lets us to know about any AfDs or other such discussions without having to rely on manual notifications. To have the alerts show up on your user page or user talk page, include this code on that page: {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines/Article alerts}}

Create outline drafts in userspace[edit]

It's best to create outline drafts as sub-pages of your user page, such as in your sandbox, and not in the draft namespace. That's because drafts in the draft namespace disappear after a certain period of time with no edit activity.

Open tasks[edit]

Here are some things you can do to help (listed directly below, and in the subsections that follow):

Scour the outlines for the best ones, to present them in the example list in the lead section at the top of this page.

Maintain links to topic outlines: each article of the corresponding topic should have a link to its topic outline in its see also section. Periodically check each see also section, as the links sometimes get removed. Snap Links comes in handy for this.
Place outlines on your watchlist and check it every time you log on. This link or a FF addon can be used alternatively. This needs to be done in order to prevent against vandalism and possibly AfD's.
Place a WikiProject banner at the top of the talk pages of all lists of basic topics, leading here. Use {{subst:BLT|topic uncapitalized|topic capitalized}}.
Place a coverage banner at the top of the talk pages of all articles matching the subjects in the titles of topic outlines, leading to the corresponding list. Use {{[[Template:Outline of knowledge coverage|Outline of knowledge coverage|subject}}.
- the coverage banner template needs to be designed

Add entries missing from Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines[edit]

Sometimes, when an outline is created, the author forgets to add its title, and a description, to the main list of outlines. You can help by placing them there, in the appropriate section.

Here are the titles missing from Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines:

Outlines needing reformatting and/or renaming[edit]

Outlines here need to be converted to the standard outline format. Only after a page has been converted to outline format should it be renamed to Outline of $x$ . Otherwise, others may assume the formatting is correct, and emulate it.

Add pictures[edit]

Examples of outlines with good picture support include:

Start a new outline[edit]

To start a new outline...

See also: Helpful tips (read it!)

First, decide which topic you'd like to outline. It could be as broad as Outline of mathematics, or as narrow as Outline of chocolate and start the page. The title should be in the format of Outline of $x$
Write a little introduction before outlining to get warmed up, this will also become the introductory paragraph of the outline.
Start listing articles on your topic. You can find them by using Special:PrefixIndex and a site allintitle Google search.
Organize links in a way that is accessible so that people can find the articles linked to. You might use an {{Outline generator}} template, like this: {{subst:Outline generator|topic uncapitalized|topic capitalized}} or, if you're outlining a specific country, {{subst:Template:Outline country|country name}}.
After that, you can add a few pictures to make the outline look nicer. Try using different ones than the ones on the article by searching on Wikimedia Commons.
Once you've finished, take a look back and see if you were able to outline the subject successfully and then post your work here so that other editors are aware it exists and can review it.

Work on an existing outline[edit]

Most outlines are incomplete, because subjects change over time, and so does Wikipedia's coverage of them.

See Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines, and choose a subject that interests you, and start adding links.

Watch over the outlines[edit]

The most effective way to do this is with your watchlist. The easiest way to add all outlines on there is to click on "Watchlist", then click on "Edit your list of watchlist pages", then click on "Edit raw watchlist", and follow the directions. You can gather a list of all outlines that start with "Outline of" here:

In the desktop view of Wikipedia, one tool available to monitor activity on outlines is related changes.

To use it on outlines, go to Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines and click on "Related changes" in the tools menu. In order for this to work on all outlines, Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines must be kept up to date.

Related changes works on the various Category:Wikipedia outlines pages, too.

Keep up the excellent work. It's a damn nice addition to the outline collection: you're filling in a gap that badly needs filling. I look forward to reading the outline as you develop it to completion.

For an example of the progression of development of an outline, view the edit history of Outline of cell biology, and look at every 10th version, starting with the first version.

Love the outlines

Hi there! I just wanted to let you know that I think your planet outlines are really cool. I have long thought it was a shame that only Wikipedians seem to know about Books or Portals, because they are really great tools for structuring knowledge (while everyone loves diving down the Wikipedia rabbit hole, we could really do with some better content organization). The outlines strike me as a great way to bring that sort content organization to mainspace, where it will actually reach a large number of readers. I notice that I am the first one to edit them besides yourself, and I hope you know that I do so with love.

		What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar
		Great idea with the outline articles - a great solution to a need for better mainspace-based content structuring! I see from WP:Outlines that you actually came up with this concept some years ago, but this is the first I've noticed it. A2soup (talk) 02:46, 8 February 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
