Wikipedia:WikiProject Golden ratio

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Welcome to WikiProject Golden ratio. Some Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Golden ratio and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please join the project, inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list below.

Goals

  • Categorize the articles about golden ratio and promote the global development of the topic.

Scope

  • Golden ratio in the universe
  • Golden ratio in human production
  • The evolution of the use and knowledge of the golden ratio through history

Guidelines

Open tasks

  • Categorize the works that have been recognized by featuring golden ratio in their design.
  • Explain how these works feature golden ratio in their design in their respective articles.

Participants

Please feel free to add yourself here, and to indicate any areas of particular interest.

Categories

For articles dedicated to explain the properties or aspects of golden ratio.
(NOTE: Not for articles about stuff that happens to have golden proportions)
For articles dedicated to explain the properties or aspects of the
Fibonacci numbers
.
(NOTE: Not for articles about stuff that happens to be related to the Fibonacci numbers)
Proposals
  • Category:Works designed with golden ratio
    United Nations Headquarters
    for citations and sourcing
  • Other proposed names for this category (propose here): Designs with golden proportions, works with golden proportions.
  • Category:Researchers of the golden ratio
  • Category:Organisms in published studies of the golden ratios (virtually any organism has it, but this is only for organisms that have been specifically studied in diverse publications dedicated to the golden ratio)
    Some examples of organisms in published studies of the golden ratios: The
    polyhedra
    ) and viruses (such as the herpes virus, have the shape of a regular icosahedron).
  • Category:Golden ratio in the universe (stars, orbits, planets, etc.)
    • Other proposed names for this category (propose here): Golden proportions in astronomy
