==Library and Information Science workgroup tasks (based on recommendations by Larry Sanger)==
*a '''welcome message''' aimed at new editors in your area

*a '''link to a version of the [[CZ:Recruitment Letter|Recruitment Letter]] adapted for Library and Information Science'''

*'''Launch list of top articles'''  Right now, there is a partial list of high priority articles (see below).  We need to transfer that into a different form, i.e., by placing "[[:Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup (Top)]]" at the bottom of articles that are regarded as "high priority" for an area. Note, don't ''also'' mark an article you're tagging as "live" unless you've actually worked on it!

*'''Launch workgroup tagging of articles'''  In addition to tagging top articles, whether live or not, we also need to tag live articles according to their likely managing workgroup.  So, for instance, one might go to "[[:Category:CZ_Live]]" and at the bottom of the "xyz" article put "<nowiki>[[Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup]]</nowiki>".  This means that we think the Library *and Information Science workgroup will be the main group to manage this article. Note, the tag is *not* "<nowiki>[[Category:Library and Information Science]]</nowiki>"; that's because we're attaching the article to its *management*.

*'''Launch area management and proposed subgroups: deferred'''  We should probably defer selection of discipline workgroup management until after more people  have arrived. There may be so few of us that little formal organization is needed. 

**The organisation we inherited from the Wikipedia portal is subdivided into ''List of Library and Information Science topics'',  however,  we do not have to follow such a format. We can move forward with subgroups that seem more natural,if we decide we need subgroups at all.  We can discuss this in the Library and Information Science forum, as we reach a critical mass of editors and authors. 

*Relevant lists and headers from Wikipedia are shown at the bottom of this page.

==High priority articles==
This list of articles was extracted  from the (now deprecated) [[CZ:High priority articles for pilot]] page. It can be used as a starting point for placing "<nowiki>[[Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup (Top)]]</nowiki>" tags.  We need to decide which of the articles below should be classified as "''Top''" (possibly all of those listed?) and the remainder should be tagged with  "<nowiki>[[Category:Library and Information Science Workgroup]]</nowiki>" tags.
Tentative suggestion for "top" have been made below, by using bold. [[User:DavidGoodman|DavidGoodman]] 23:40, 30 November 2006 (CST)
