Wikipedia:WikiProject Dacia

A group of Wikipedians have formed this project to better organize and improve the quality and accuracy in the articles related to ancient Dacia and primarily to the history of Dacians, Getae and Moesi.

This project and its subpages contain the suggestions of the participating Wikipedians and it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of others. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and review the Tasks below.

For more information on WikiProjects, please see

• The time span: 1500 BC - 600 AD, with the core focus on the
  Daco-Romanian continuity nor it denies it. It also doesn't imply that Dacians, Getae or Moesi
  appeared exactly in 1500 BC or disappeared in 600 AD. It simply provides a common sense time frame within which most known and reliable academic references to the mentioned people and space were made. References outside this time frame are scarce to non-existent.
• The space: The sum of Dacia (at Burebista's time) plus Moesia and Scythia Minor (after Roman conquest) where Dacians, Getae and Moesi where known to live, without implying a continuum or uniformity or that they are necessarily identical people. While closely related, Thrace is considered relatively distinct, at least linguistically. The related articles about Thrace, especially around the common culture, religion, warfare, are usually marked with low importance but not zero importance, and without implying that Dacians are Thracians or the other way around.
• The people: As Dacia was named after
  Germanic people, Sarmatians, Scythians, Illyrians, Thracians
  and others not mentioned here, are by no means excluded. Articles related to their contribution and interaction with Dacians, Getae and Moesi are very welcomed and encouraged.
• The culture: The core focus is the
  language, warfare
  , art had more or less enough commonality across the ancients in the space and time span defined in the scope. The other different cultures that existed or later migrated in the space are not excluded or their importance is not minimized in any way, but are not the core focus. There also are other specialized projects that focus on those cultures.
• The name: The name choice for the project doesn't imply that all the space or territory defined in the scope was only or entirely Dacian. It was chosen for simplicity and since it has more resonance than other possible choices.

Your input on greater clarification on the scope is greatly appreciated, if you wish to comment make a new section on our Talk page
