Welcome to the Intellectual Property WikiProject! {{TOCright}}
This project covers articles about intellectual property, meaning mainly topics relating to copyright, trademark, and patent law. Intellectual property also includes trade secrets, and a newer concept called the right of publicity. Articles in scope of this project are likely to intersect with privacy law, cyberlaw, technology law, and business history.
Goals:
- Improve Wikipedia's coverage of intellectual property.
- Create guidelines for articles about intellectual property.
The scope of the project is not limited to statute- or case law-based topics — it also encompasses the cultural and policy issues related to intellectual property law.
