WikiProject COVID-19 consensus

WikiProject COVID-19 aims to add to and build consensus for pages relating to COVID-19. They have so far discussed items listed below. Please discuss proposed improvements to them at the project talk page.

General

Superseded by TfD October 2020 and later practice - consult regular {{Current}} guidance.

Refrain from using Worldometer (worldometers.info) as a source due to common errors being observed as noted on the Case Count Task Force common errors page. (April 2020, April 2020)

For infoboxes on the main articles of countries, use Wuhan, Hubei, China for the origin parameter. (March 2020)

"Social distancing" is generally preferred over "physical distancing". (April 2020, May 2020)

Page title

COVID-19 (full caps) is preferable in the body of all articles, and in the title of all articles/category pages/etc.(RM April 2020, including the main article itself, RM March 2021).

SARS-CoV-2 (exact capitalisation and punctuation) is the common name of the virus and should be used for the main article's title, as well as in the body of all articles, and in the title of all other articles/category pages/etc. (June 2022, overturning April 2020)

Map

There is no consensus about which color schemes to use, but they should be consistent within articles as much as possible. There is agreement that there should be six levels of shading, plus gray for areas with no instances or no data. (May 2020)

There is no consensus about whether the legend, the date, and other elements should appear in the map image itself. (May 2020)

For map legends, ranges should use fixed round numbers (as opposed to updating dynamically). There is no consensus on what base population to use for per capita maps. (May 2020)

To ensure you are viewing the current list, you may wish to purge this page.

The article is too long now

The article is now 69 kB, which means it should be shortened or split off per WP:SIZERULEs. Any suggestions as to how that can be accomplished? Love of Corey (talk) 02:10, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Education and alert level system

This article has been missing info about the possible return of face-to-face or physical classes, as well as the implementation of alert levels. We keep on updating case numbers daily, but we don't keep up with changes on restrictions affecting things like education. WHY? TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 01:48, 7 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Second-highest" update

As of March 3, the Philippines has already been relegated to third-highest in terms of case count after Vietnam took over today though the death count still remains second. How should I word it since both are labeled as "the second-highest in Southeast Asia, after Indonesia"? Hachijo8 (talk) 14:44, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
