Wikipedia:WikiProject Aramea

Introduction Shlomo/Shlama/ܫܠܡܐ and welcome to WikiProject Aramea, a WikiProject designed to expand, cleanup and wikify, better organize, and neutralize the point of view on articles related to Aramea and the Aramean people. This page and its subpages contain the suggestions of Wikipedians who are interested or have made substantial contributions to articles related to Arameans; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page. For further information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProjects and Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices. Anyone is free to edit any of the pages listed here, including this page as well. For example, if you see a new Aramean related article, then add it to the "New Articles Notifications" in this page. Scope WikiProject Aramea was introduced in order to collaborate with others in a more organized and effective way on articles pertaining to topics related to the Aramean ethnic group. For early Aramean history, it is a daughter project of WikiProject Ancient Near East. For Christian times, it is a daughter project of WikiProject Syriac Christianity. Projects with overlapping scopes include Wikipedia:WikiProject Syria. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Arab world. Project participants may be interested in adding their user page to Category:Aramean_Wikipedians (for people self-identifying as "Aramean"), or to the sub-categories Category:Syriac Orthodox Wikipedians intended for adherents of these respective churches.

It was probably the language of Jesus, it is the main language of the Talmud, and it is still spoken today as a first language by numerous small communities.
