[edit] Introduction

Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Canadian law. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; 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 and see the to-do list there.

For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProjects and Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices.

This WikiProject's scope is all areas of Canadian law, from federal constitutional law, to provincial law and municipal bylaws, to expand the amount of information on these laws on Wikipedia. We will also strive to include case law, and various court rulings.

[edit] Requests

  • ASAP Support from fellow Wikipedians is needed to argue for the inclusion of PC ValĂ©rie Gignac and Mark Bourque on Wikipedia. Recent articles are being considered for deletion. CelebritySecurity 19:35, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • ASAP Research and links related to first nations policing services in Canada.
  • The page "Ontarians with Disabilities Act" refers to legislation of the Harris govt that is now essentially outdated and replaced with entirely new legislation, the AODA. Something needs to be done. The ODA is still interesting as a historical first attempt but it's quite irrelevant now. Rmalhotr 05:48, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Things You Can Do

  1. Tag related articles talk pages (at the top) with {{CanLaw}}.
  2. Come up with a potential list of missing articles that need to be created.
  3. Re-tag related stub pages with {{Canada-law-stub}}.
  4. Adopt an article: Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced. Example article: User:Example
  5. Develop common standards and formats for pages on Canadian law.
  6. Expand the number of articles on Canadian law.
