- Improve articles to GA!
- Check new articles added to our project!
Start new articles
- Pick your favorite protein/microbe/microbiology-related thing and start a new article! If you need a hand, post on the talk page!
Discuss
- Join in discussing proposals on the talk page. Any ideas are always welcome!
Improve the project itself
- Assist in public relations and outreach by recruiting editors interested in microbiology to contribute. A bot-generated list of users active on microbiology pages is here!
Categorise microbiology related articles
- Label articles of interest to the project by putting the banner template on the talk pages of all articles of interest to microbiology.
- Categorise articles by adding them to the appropriate microbiology categories as shown to right.
Here are some tasks awaiting attention:
- Cleanup : Sterilisation (microbiology), Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus
- Expand : Antimicrobial, Colony-forming unit, Microbiologist, Lactobacillus , Lactic acid bacteria, Escherichia coli , Indicator bacteria, Yersinia pestis
- Merge :
- Bacterial cellular morphologies: (Coccus, Diplococcus, Coccobacillus, Bacilli, etc)
- Coliform Index into Faecal coliforms
- Merge and redirect all Alga stub basionyms
- Split : Mycoplasma
- Stubs : Category:Microbiology stubs, but also... Telonemia, Morganella morganii , Chaetoceros coarctatus , Roseofilum reptotaenium , Rhabdosphaera clavigera
- Other :
- Get to GA class: Mould, Yersinia pestis, Category:B-Class Microbiology articles
- Get to FA class: Escherichia coli, Yeast, Category:GA-Class_Microbiology_articles
