Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Museums

Welcome

Hello and thanks for stopping by the Museums Project, which was launched in mid-March, 2008. We've had to archive some of the initial discussion due to talk page length, but a complete index of all archived topics is available. In the mean time, the following topics may help you:

• Assessment, the assessment guidelines for the project. Please feel free to propose changes if you think they're required
• Requested Articles, if you feel like working on a new article
• Expansion Needed, these stubs have been created, but require expansion
• To Do, the project's to-do list, that includes everything except article creation and expansion requests

Please always feel free to start a new topic and don't worry if it may have been discussed before. New discussion is a good thing.

Guidance on "Exhibitions" lists?

Hey all, wondering if anyone has seen/developed any guidance in the MOS (or elsewhere) about lists of exhibitions within museum articles. There are quite a few articles for highly notable museums with lists of exhibitions that are getting a bit unwieldy. To my eye, there are a number of museums that would benefit from a standalone "List of exhibitions" article (although the biggest flag in my mind is that for some museums these lists could theoretically be limitless, or at least so long that they become useless). I don't want to just dive in without checking in with others who have thought about this in the past, but I couldn't find any guidance anywhere. Any thoughts? Thanks! 19h00s (talk) 14:21, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

@19h00s: The policy guidance at WP:NOTDIRECTORY may be relevant to what you are describing. Left guide (talk) 12:02, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
