The IRC collaboration WikiProject focuses on using IRC to work on a chosen article to get it to the best possible standard. IRC collaboration is in real time, so users can discuss edits as they work - this gives the advantage of having a much more streamlined editing process. There will be one collaboration a month, and the main aim of the collaboration are to get the chosen article up to featured status. Non IRC members are more than happy to join the project and they may simply use the normal channels to discuss edits such as article talk pages, or members of IRC would be more than willing to help set users up on the channel. The major channel that will be used for collaboration is #wikipedia-en.

Current suggestions edit

Tutankhamun (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - an interesting article, of a high standard that many users, from wide backgrounds could contribute to. Ryan Postlethwaite 02:15, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm slowly working through it, rewriting and fixing up citations. Some content reorganization and such is necessary, I think. Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP!☺} 02:22, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Honda (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Global company that most editors will be familiar with. The article has a good amount of prose that needs to be organized, cited and rewritten in areas. BJ^Talk 02:25, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimedia Foundation (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - An article that could use some work and most of us are familiar with. Greeves ^{(talk • contribs)} 04:00, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
