WikiProject Physics' Fluid Dynamics Taskforce works on improving the quality and coverage of articles and categories within the field of fluid dynamics — the natural science of fluids (liquids and gases) in motion. But we also keep an eye on fluid statics.
Our activities include, but are not limited to: improving articles, assessing their quality, creating new ones, identifying articles as fluid-dynamics articles, merging or cleaning-up overlapping articles, and organizing them all into categories. For doing so, this task force applies the methodology and tools provided by the WikiProject Physics.

If you want to join this task force, please feel free to add your name to the lists of members. Wondering whether you can be of help? Please have a look at the intro of WikiProject Physics: the same applies here as well.
