Wikipedia:WikiProject Robotics

• To improve Wikipedia articles related to robotics development, technology, research, and other related areas
• To refine and maintain the navigation subsystems for browsing robotics. See Outline of robotics and Category:Robotics.
• To keep this project active and constantly improving
• To upgrade a majority of robotics-related articles to B-Class and above, and eventually push articles into WP:FA and WP:GA
• To promote an active Wikipedia community of robotics users
• To update all outdated information regarding robotics and to promote active collaboration through various sub-projects
• To give recognition to and to promote robotics related activities such as workshops and competitions held anywhere in the world.

• Coverage of robotics from AUVs to MARS rovers, Robby to ASIMO, and nanorobotics to the SLS
• Coverage of popular robots
• Coverage of the current state of development, research, and software for robots of any kind: prototypes, hobbyist and educational projects, and robots used by consumers, industries and governments
• Biographies of living persons related to robotics development will be placed in this WikiProject on a case-by-case basis
