Wikiproject Inclusion is dedicated to promoting inclusion on Wikipedia. It is the project page for the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians. Please join us.

• To continuously improve Wikipedia and make it the most comprehensive source of reliable encyclopedic information available on the planet.
• Support Wikipedia's premise to comprise the sum of all human knowledge, freely accessible to all humans.

There are several ways to help:

1. Notify your comrades on the talk page when interesting discussions, rescues, or deletions are occurring.
2. Read to understand Inclusionism and Deletionism and how they interplay on Wikipedia.
3. Declare your opinions on your user page using the templates below.
4. Argue for Inclusion at relevant Village pump discussions.
5. Join the Article Rescue Squadron and improve its articles tagged for rescue.
6. Tackle the front lines of article deletion at AfD. You can monitor the entire current feed or concentrate on deletion debates in a particular area:
   1. Category:AfD debates uses the category function built into the AfD template. It has less specific categories but should theoretically pull from all deletion debates.
   2. Wikiproject Deletion sorting manually places AfDs into a plethora of categories; help them categorize or monitor one of the categories they create.

• Try to fix problems – The Wikipedia policy of trying to correct problems in articles through editing improvements, expansion and adding reliable sources is often more appropriate than a complete deletion or merging of articles.

We the undersigned have formed this local WikiProject —based on the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians —to better organize action to support the principle article and material inclusion and to counter exclusion and deletion.

• We hold the view that the process of deletion carries a "systemic bias" or "process bias" by which the process itself becomes a haven for those who wish to use it —emphasizing deletion rather than offering reasonable alternatives for keeping or redirection. (Alternate project title: Countering Process Bias. See also Countering Systemic Bias)
• We campaign for the proper use of the Wikipedia:Cleanup process as it was instituted as a mainstream buffer before deletion is used.
• We seek to institute a review process for Wikipedia articles and templates, which will act in a similar way as Cleanup does for main articles.
• We also seek to begin a consolidation of the deletion processes, whereby these can be collectively tracked and responded to.

Feel free to add yourself here!

• Cycl^opia - ^talk 19:23, 4 October 2009 (UTC) - WP is not paper, and notability is almost always a POV concept. Oh, and "encyclopedic" is the most abused word ever. Sometimes deletion is meaningful, but much more often not. I patrol AfDs (2-3 a day usually), with an eye on BLPs which are usually slashed by overzealous application of BLP policies.[reply]
• Sternenmeer (talk) 01:22, 20 October 2009 (UTC) ‒ WP is really not Paper. In fact, the Paper Age is ending before our very eyes. The deletionists overzealously stick too much to old pre-digital principles dictated by former scarcety of information that no longer exists anymore, not outside our minds anyway ... Enraged by the current ridiculous deletionism storm in the German Wikipedia (see fefe & netzpolitik) I pledge to improve or flag content rather than delete it. I'll also probably like never propose an article's deletion, cause if it really validly should be deleted, someone else will propose it anyway while I'm off adding valuable content somewhere else :D :D :D. I pledge to enrich and grow WP best I can :).[reply]

• User:PseudoSkull - I believe highly in the philosophy of inclusionism. Moderation between deletionism and inclusionism would sound like a good idea to me, except even within this it takes away from the very primary purposes of Wikipedia. Include as much as possible, and delete as little as possible. Delete only the unverifiable/untrue and the nonsense. PseudoSkull (talk) 23:19, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Asds751 (talk) 13:28, 21 October 2024 (UTC) The advantage of Wikipedia over a physical entity IS that we do not need to comply to the material limitations of our predecessors. We should be using this power we have been given. A robotics competition could have been the reason someone went into their field, while for someone else it could have been a debate club. Both deserve their place on Wikipedia if they still are having that impact on people and the world. Let 300 edits be done rather than 1 deletion be allowed.[reply]
