Moving Category:WikiProject Computer Security to Category:WikiProject Computer security per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy

New page

{{Historical|comment=This WikiProject has been '''superseded by [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer Security|WikiProject Computer Security]]''' ([[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Computing/Computer and Information Security task force#Merge with WikiProject Malware to form WikiProject Computer Security|discussion]]).}}

Welcome to the '''Computer and Information Security task force''' of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Computing|WikiProject Computing]].

==Scope==
The '''Computer and Information Security task force''' exists to centralize efforts to improve Wikipedia's coverage of related matters, to include:
* Topics and Terminology ([[information security]], [[firewall]], [[hacker (computer security)]], etc.)
* Events, outages, and notable virus/worm outbreaks ([[Morris Worm]], etc.)
* Practitioners ([[Dan Geer]], [[Marcus J. Ranum]], etc.)

==Participants==
'''NOTICE!'''

Thank You for your interest in WikiProject Computing/Computer and Information Security task force ! Please be aware, that this WikiProject is now under the imperium of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Computer_Security|WikiProject Computer Security]]. All Malware articles are currently being transferred over to the new project. In any case, we welcome you to join us at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Computer_Security|WikiProject Computer Security]]!

==Todo==

===Todo items for members of Computer and Information Security task force===

* Find editors who have shown interest in this subject and ask them to take a look here.
* Tag related articles.
* Identify articles for creation
* Identify articles for improvement
* Review importance and quality of existing articles


===Todo items for anyone===

*Convert [[Protected Computer]] from a verbatim quote from a U.S. government source to an actual encyclopædic article. [[Special:Contributions/69.140.152.55|69.140.152.55]] ([[User talk:69.140.152.55|talk]]) 03:42, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

==Guidelines==

===Tagging and assessment===
Any articles that are within the scope of this project should be tagged with the project banners of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Computing|WikiProject Computing]]{{#if: |, [[Wikipedia:|Wikipedia:]]}}{{#if: |, [[Wikipedia:|Wikipedia:]]}}{{#if: | and [[Wikipedia:|Wikipedia:]]}}. You may also find {{tl|WikiProjectBanners}} useful. To each of these banners, you should add <code>|security=yes</code> as this will automatically put the page in the appropriate categories., such as [[:Category:Computer and Information Security articles]].

=== Categories ===



=== Templates ===
{{main|Wikipedia:WikiProject Computing/Templates}}

====Userbox template====
* {{tl|Wikipedia:WikiProject Computing/Outreach/User Computer and Information Security task force}}
{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Computing/Outreach/User Computer and Information Security task force}} 

====Infobox template====

* {{tl|Computer hacking}}
* {{tl|Computer security}}

==Assessment==
<syntaxhighlight lang="text">
{{WikiProject Computing|class=|importance=|security=yes|security-importance=}}
</syntaxhighlight>
Anyone can assess articles (regardless of membership to the WikiProject) by adding or editing the <code>class</code> and <code>security-importance</code> parameters to the {{tl|WikiProject Computing}} template. The template is found on talk pages.

===Project Articles===
{{Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Computer and Information Security articles by quality statistics}}

=== Quality scale ===
The quality scale is the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Computing/Assessment#Grades|WikiProject computing scale]].

The [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment/B-Class criteria|B-Class criteria]] are: (1) referenced; (2) coverage; (3) structure; (4) grammar; (5) supporting materials; (6) accessible language.

=== Importance scale ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Importance
! Criteria
! Examples
|-
| {{Top-importance|category=Category:Top-importance Computer and Information Security articles}}
| Core articles which are a "must have" for the Computer and Information Security Task Force. High-traffic articles which many people outside of computer security will already have a good knowledge of.
| [[Computer security]], [[Computer insecurity]], [[Firewall]], [[Malware]]
|-
| {{High-importance|category=Category:High-importance Computer and Information Security articles}}
| Most people interested in computer security will be familiar with the topic, and the article gives context to a number of other information security articles. Is mentioned by many books and academic papers, and discussed in detail in more than one.
| [[Port scanner]], [[Bruce Schneier]]
|-
| {{Mid-importance|category=Category:Mid-importance Computer and Information Security articles}}
| Known to many people interested in computer security, even if not in detail.
| [[Chaos Computer Club]], [[Snort (software)]], [[Morris worm]]
|-
| {{Low-importance|category=Category:Low-importance Computer and Information Security articles}}
| More specific and specialized content known only to some people interested in computer security. Most individuals, standards and software projects will be low importance unless they are well known or have high adoption.
| [[Michael Lynn]], [[Datenschleuder]], [[Certified Information Systems Security Professional]]
