The following categories are within the purview of the task force. It is proposed that at some point we get a bot to tag the all the articles in these categories with the epistemology=yes field:

• Category:Epistemology
• Category:Empiricism
• Category:Epistemologists
• Category:Internalism and externalism
• Category:Rationalism
• Category:Skepticism

The talk page of each category is tagged with: Template:Philosophy/announce

Templates

• For main project templates, see the Philosophy Templates.

Portal Pointer

{{portalpar|Epistemology}} adds a box which leads to the epistemology portal. It looks like this:

It should appear at the bottom of each epistemology article, immediately before the categories list.

Project page tag

Putting {{philosophy|epistemology=yes}} at the top of a page will add this notice to it:

This message should be placed at the top of the talk pages of all epistemology articles, especially:

• articles that members of the WikiProject are actively trying to improve.
• articles about major epistemology topics.
• articles that need special attention.

Userbox

The template {{User WP Epistemology}} will add the following userbox to your user page, and add you to the Category:Epistemology task force members and Category:WikiProject Philosophy members
