WikiProject Video games
Welcome to the Video games WikiProject on the English Wikipedia! We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to video games .
If you have any questions, feel free to ask them on our discussion page , or by contacting participants of the project.
Purpose and Goals
Our main functions are to:

We are currently working toward three major milestones:
250 Featured articles and lists: 77.2% complete
750 Good and A-Class articles: 70.8% complete
10% of articles C-Class or better: 89.3% complete

Project Structure
Related WikiProjects and task forces
The assessment department evaluates the quality and importance of video game related articles.
The essential articles page identifies the most important topics in the scope of this WikiProject.
The reference library is an archive of high-quality sources that may be used to support development history, critical reception, and other sections of articles.
We have task forces within our project that provide centralized information and discussion for topics that have a sufficiently large scope, but would not benefit from having a separate WikiProject with all of the associated bureaucracy.
Page view statistics for the departments and task forces of this project are available.
