Wikipedia:WikiProject Autism (WP:AUTISM)

Welcome to WikiProject Autism. Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Autism and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please add yourself as a participant in the project, inquire on the talk page, and see the to-do list, below.  To improve the overall quality of articles relating to autism and the culture of those on the Autism Spectrum. To encourage collaboration and the formation of a community of those on the Autism Spectrum and interested non-autistic Wikipedians. To achieve a consensus from a wider group on what are sometimes controversial topics, emphasizing a representation from people on the Autism Spectrum. To improve the relevant content from all regions of the world. To integrate all of the articles into a consistent classification schema (e.g. category hierarchies) Articles relating to the autism spectrum Articles about someone who is publicly known to be autistic Articles about organizations and groups who support or advocate for autism Articles about organizations and groups who mistreat or have prejudice against autistic people Please do not write articles that advocate one particular viewpoint on autism, politics, religion, or anything else. Understand what we mean by a neutral point of view before tackling/editing this sort of topic. Citation is your gateway to adding a sentence or paragraph.  Do not copy original text as-is; you must reword them as neutrally and non-offensively as possible.  To add your name here, place the WikiProject Autism userbox on your user page  (please do not place on a subpage, as it will look weird on the list. After adding it, click  to refresh this list.
