Welcome to the Graphic design WikiProject. We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Graphic design. (For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject and the Guide to WikiProjects).

This Wikiproject aims to create a more complete understanding of the breadth of the discipline by explaining the role of Graphic design in different contexts, and by drawing connections between Graphic design and its many related disciplines, areas of interest, and specializations.

One route to achieving a more complete understanding of Graphic design is to frame it in a variety of contexts:

• The history of Graphic design
• The business of Graphic design
• Professional accreditation in Graphic design
• The science of visual communication (semiotics, perception)
• The Political impact of Graphic design (i.e. poster design and war propaganda)
• Design movements (Arts and Crafts, Scandinavian modern, etc.)
• Design education

Learn all about how Wikipedia works, what constitutes a great article, and how to go about editing an article here:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• The Manual of Style

Get involved in editing the Wikipedia:Manual of Style, especially regarding how graphics are used on Wikipedia. Oicumayberight (talk) 17:19, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requests for assessment can be made at the assessment sub-page. As this project is rather small in membership compared to some wikiprojects, please be patient regarding your request. Someone will get to it, how quickly is another question.
