The intention of this category is to give ideas for any kind of projects, whether practical, theoretical or a combination.
They may be, for example:
- personal,
- academic (theses or smaller projects, individual, group or class),
- organizational,
- commercial (provided it is not simplly for advertising purposes)
- joint, with other people or groups that you connect with on Appropedia.
The pages in this category use the {{suggested project}} template. To find the specific idea for the project, search the page for the text "suggested project" which will appear as a superscript link next to the question or proposal.
To propose a project
You may:
- mention the idea on a relevant page, followed by the {{suggested project}} template.
- create a new page, also using the {{suggested project}} template somewhere on the page. A separate project page is suitable for a very long project description.
- describe your idea briefly in the Additional suggested projects below (if it's not listed elsewhere and tagged as described)
Additional suggested projects
You may wish to sign and date your suggestion. This does not mean you are responsible for carrying out the project.
You may add comments below a suggestion, (using a double colon, :: at the beginning to double indent the line). For example please mention if you are doing the project, or have written it up (with a link to the page).
- Compare the cost-effectiveness of low-environmental-impact hot water systems in a particular setting. This may consider home-made options (expected to be suitable for tropical and developing word settings) and the low cost mass-produced Chinese systems, mentioned at Wikipedia:Solar hot water.

Note regarding subcategories
Where a topic page appears under subcateories, this just means that the above template is used on that topic page, not that it is meant to be a subcateory of "Suggested projects."
