- Please discuss any proposals for new work groups with the project as a whole before creating them.
WikiProject Comics work groups are informal groups of editors gathered for collaborative work on a particular topic within the subject of comics. They afford the advantage of allowing editors to organize their efforts around a topic without having to expend time and energy organizing and duplicating the overall structure, style, and guidelines for a descendant WikiProject which would be completely or mostly covered by the Comics project. All users are encouraged to participate in any that interest them.
Editors interested in creating work groups should look towards creating a work group with a medium-to-large number of articles within its scope, or consider a higher-level scope if this cannot be achieved. (For example, less productive national comics scenes may be better served by creating a collective regional comics work group instead.)
Work groups should also have aroused a significant number of potential participants to warrant organizational overhead. The project, via consensus on the discussion page, will determine if a work group is to be created.
(It should be noted that work groups created prior to October 22, 2007 were moved from independent WikiProjects and should thus be considered "grandfathered" in.)
