Categorization

[edit]

The central category for this WikiProject is Category:Dubai. The main category and its associated subcategories are tagged with {{WikiProject United Arab Emirates}}. Please note that both main category is itself a subcategory of Category:Cities in the United Arab Emirates and Category:Emirates of the United Arab Emirates, which contain some other categories that are out of scope of this project.

The major category, Category:Dubai, should be reserved for very general articles about Dubai that cannot be further categorized into any of the below listed ones. Please note that Dubai-related articles should not be overcategorized; if one category, such as Category:Buildings and structures in Dubai, is already present on a page, then the more general Category:Dubai should not be added. The former category already indicates that an article is related to Dubai.

Here are some major categories for Dubai topics. Each category also has more specific categories that should be used in articles if applicable. Ideas for any new categories may be brought up on the project talk page.

Issues of ongoing concern

[edit]

Please report vandalism, copyright violations, addition of unsourced material and edit-warring to Dubai-related articles here:

(none)

Please consider adding these articles to your watchlist, to help in reverting the ongoing vandalism which is certain to resume once semi-protection expires. Even during the period of semi-protection, some articles continue to be vandalized by recently registered accounts. Consider reporting users who chronically vandalize articles to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism.

If you find any other articles within the scope of this project which are being heavily vandalized (as a rough standard, over 10 vandals per day, or continual vandalism for several days such that the last 50+ edits are all vandalism and reverts, or 10+ vandalism / revert edits in 30 minutes), please report them at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection and add them to the list above.
