Steps for making a proposal
These are the steps for making and submitting a proposal


 * 1) Read the detailed information on the New project ((policy|policy page)).
 * 2) Create an ((Help:Logging in|account)) and a user page on this wiki, so people can address their questions to you.
 * 3) Create a page here at Meta where you describe your plan in detail and add this to the ((:Category:Proposed projects|Proposed projects)) ((Help:Category|category)).
 * 4) Add your proposal to this page using ((New project policy#Format of the proposal|the recommended format)).
 * 5) It is recommended that you advertise your project. Good places to do so are on ((Goings-on)) and on the Foundation-l mailing-list (account needed).
