Hello, A few Wikipedians on English Wikipedia have decided to start a WikiProject on COVID-19 on English Wikipedia to work more systematically and collaboratively on the subject. The WikiProject is started by [[User:Another Believer]] on 15 March, and very quickly got ~20 participants and several discussions started on the talk page. Please have a look at WikiProject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_COVID-19 Questions or comments or suggestions at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_t...
Thanks Tito Dutta [[User:Titodutta]]
Please read the noticeboard/talk page link as: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_COVID-19. It looks like I had another noticeboard open at that time. Apologies for the wrong link in the last post.
Thanks Tito Dutta

Congratulations for the new project.
Possibly you could start by moving the "coronavirus" pandemic articles at wiki.en to the proper name of the disease, COVID-19. No idea why the English Wikipedia insists naming this disease with the name of a group of virus that causes a number of other different diseases, instead of the WHO recognized name, providing misleading information and opening fertile ground to all kind of fake news and disinformation selling stuff for other coronavirus diseases as if it was COVID-19. Even worst, it's contaminating other projects, like Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons, with teams of wiki.en editors going there to revert anyone that dares to move the disease to its proper name.
Please help fix this, providing accurate information, specially at a situation like this, is at the core of Wikipedia mission.
Best, Paulo

No, it's an abbreviation for *Coronavirus Disease 2019* [1]. There are many other "coronavirus diseases".

Hello,
May I suggest that the discussion regarding the name take place somewhere other than Wikimedia-l? I think that a talk page of one of the relevant articles on English Wikipedia, a WikiProject Medicine talk page, or the WikiProject Medicine Mailing List, would all be reasonable venues.
That's great Idea 👍

Just to remark that I went today to a supermarket to take a picture of empty shelves and eventually to upload it to Commons. Which I did (and eventually I added one of the photographs to an English Wikipedia article), just to discover that several people had the same idea before me, including one in my city. Still, the number of relevant pictures is laughably small, and now it is good time to take pictures for example of places which are normally overcrowded by tourists and now are empty. Or queues at the airports due to cancellations, We need to document the event (obviously not compromising on the safety), and anybody with a cell phone can easily contribute.

I took images of an almost empty Milan Central train station even before i think there were any specific social distancing rule https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Milano_Centrale_train_station_du... ... and created few days later https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Social_distancing but overall I think the topic will be covered, on line there are always many images with the right licenses.
I am more interested in people taking nice images of empty towns now that it's possible. For example when you walk for basic chores, stop for few minutes.

Thanks for starting this! And the Wikidata project is awesome also. Hopefully we can get more of this data into wikidata itself...

The thread was about COVID-19, not about "COVID", so no idea really why Doc James replied talking about something else. But I don't want to go on with that subject, at Pine's request. What I wanted to say about it, I've already said.
