Hierarchy definition
[edit]No classification of this project has been defined.
Structure
[edit]Motivation
[edit]- Ottawa is the national capital of Canada, a nation historically rated #1 by the UN Human Development Index.
- Ottawa-Gatineau is the fourth largest Census Metropolitan Area in Canada.
- The National Capital Region is home to a vibrant and colourful history and population that should be brought to life in this living encyclopedia.
- Ottawa is home to a wide range of notable institutions and structures, including the Rideau Canal, recently designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
- Ottawa has been named as one of "The Smart21 Communities" by the "The Intelligent Community Forum (ICF)" for both 2006 and 2007. ([1])
Naming conventions
[edit]- Places: as [[Bank Street (Ottawa)]] with a redirect from [[Bank Street]], or a disambiguation page if there is more than one place or thing with this name.
- All OC Transpo stations: as [[Fallowfield Station (OC Transpo)]].
- Cities: as their former official full names but recognized as part of Ottawa (their current status), i.e. [[Osgoode Township, Ontario]], [[Gloucester, Ontario]].
- Neighbourhoods: Urban neighbourhoods are not disambiguated (example: [[New Edinburgh]]) unless another place exists in the world with the same name (example: [[Riverview (Ottawa]]). In this case, the pre-2001 municipality is used as a disambiguation. For rural villages like [[Greely, Ontario]], use ", Ontario" afterwards.
- Embassies: as [[Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in Ottawa]] or [[Embassy of Iraq in Ottawa]] with a redirect from [[Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in Canada]] or [[Embassy of Iraq in Canada]]. For an example see Category:Embassies and High Commissions in Ottawa.
- High Commissions: as [[High Commission of the United Kingdom in Ottawa]] with a redirect from [[High Commission of the United Kingdom in Canada]]. For an example see Category:Embassies and High Commissions in Ottawa.
- Schools: as [[Brookfield High School (Ottawa)]] with a redirect from [[Brookfield High School]], or a disambiguation page if there is more than one school with this name. This does not apply to Colleges or Universities.
Notability
[edit]WikiProject Ottawa consensus is that the following criteria are sufficient, but not necessary conditions for notable articles:
- Politics: Ottawa and Gatineau's Mayor and Councillors; Mayors of surrounding municipalities; other local politicians as secondary sources (e.g. media coverage) warrants
- Roads: Roadways formally classified by the City of Ottawa as city freeway, arterial or major collector (Ottawa 2020 Transportation Master Plan, see roads in Maps 6 through 9)
- Embassies and High Commissions: All primary national diplomatic missions to Canada.
- (other subjects to be determined)
