Welcome to WikiProject Biology, a common forum for discussing biology-related editing issues and guidelines. Join the discussion.
Overview
There are many active biology WikiProjects. The purpose of this project is to provide common ground for editors in these projects, for seeking advice or requesting help from a broader community of biology editors, and for coordinating the perpetual problem of categorization of biology articles. (For some time, this page has redirect to Portal:Biology, where the talk page served that purpose.)

Category maintenance
Many biology categories are in a bad way. They tend to fill up with articles on minor topics that are better placed in subcategories (or sub-subcategories, etc.).
(Statistics compiled June 22, 2007)
- Category:Biology - with 60 subcategories, it could use some reorganization. It also accumulates articles rapidly, so it needs regular attention.
