SkullSpace members occasionally come together to work on special tasks. These strikeforces are usually formed on-the-fly.
See Strikeforce:Meta for more information on Strikeforces, or see Category:Strikeforces for an unabridged list.
Protocol
SkullSpace strikeforces are fairly casual—we create them any time we want to come together and solve a problem, and they end whenever that problem is solved or becomes too trivial to care about.
To create a strikeforce, add it below with a name, a leader, a description, and a list of members. The leader will be responsible for making sure all members are in the loop, and will be the contact point for anyone else interested in their work.
If you want to join a strikeforce, add your name into the list of members and send the leader a message. Ask some of the other members what's gone on so far.
Strikeforces are working-group scratch pads. The content inside a strikeforce is usually deleted as duties change and events are completed, so it is generally not archivable. Always create proper event pages for events, and create separate informational pages when necessary. This way we can archive those pages after we're finished with them, rather than deleting that content entirely.
Current Strikeforces
(For freshness, newer or updated Strikeforces are closer to the top and will be moved upwards as news comes in.)
