Titles
=Articles=
The Winter Olympic Games-related articles are named according to one of the following six types of titles:
:;1. [Year] Winter Olympics: For articles describing each edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. 1952 Winter Olympics);
:;2. [Sport] at the Winter Olympics: For articles describing the history and evolution of a specific Olympic sport at the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Alpine skiing at the Winter Olympics);
:;3. [Country] at the Olympics: For articles describing the history and performance of a specific National Olympic Committee (NOC) at the Olympic Games (e.g. Norway at the Olympics);
:;4. [Country] at the [Year] Winter Olympics: For articles describing the performance of a specific NOC at a specific edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Norway at the 1952 Winter Olympics);
:;5. [Sport] at the [Year] Winter Olympics: For articles describing the global results in a specific sport at a specific edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Alpine skiing at the 1952 Winter Olympics);
:;6. [Sport] at the [Year] Winter Olympics – [Event]: For articles describing the results of a specific sport's event (if the sport has multiple events, e.g. speed skating) at a specific edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Alpine skiing at the 1952 Winter Olympics – Men's downhill).
The first three types are considered "main level" pages, meaning they are at the top of the page hierarchy and hold similar but independent ranks within the project. They are the "parent" articles from which the following two page types (4 & 5) are derived. The last type (6) derives from type 5 for multi-event sports/disciplines.

There are also many templates which help with the navigation between related Winter articles. These template pages are named in the following manner:
:;1. Template
:;2. Template
Progress tables
The following tables display the existing Winter Olympics-related articles and templates together with non-existing articles and templates that are planned to be created. This helps the WikiProject to assess its development, the current coverage and where work is still needed.
Notice that due to factual reasons, concerning the history of the Winter Olympic Games, some articles are not supposed to be created, even though a place for a possible article might appear in some of the tables (e.g. 1940 Winter Olympics opening ceremony).
=Sports per Games=
The table presents a full set of article series featuring the history and results of every Olympic sport (past and current) at each edition of the Winter Olympics. It shows type 1 articles in the top row, type 2 articles in a left-hand column, and type 5 articles in the table body.
The two sets of templates previously mentioned are also shown as linked "T"s. Those displayed in a column correspond to type 1 templates, while the ones displayed in a row correspond to type 2 templates. These templates are to be transcluded at the bottom of each page, for navigational purposes.

=Other articles per Games=
The table presents other types of articles per edition of the Winter Olympics, such as (opening and closing) ceremonies, medal counts, Olympic stadia, host cities and bid campaigns.
{{/Others table}}
=NOC per Games=
The table presents several sequences of articles corresponding to every documented National Olympic Committee's participation history at the Winter Olympics. It shows type 3 articles in a left-hand column and type 5 articles in the table body.
NOCs are ordered by their attendance record — from the most attending NOCs at the top to the least attending ones at the bottom; if NOCs share attendance figures, they are ordered by alphabetical order. Historically related NOCs are shown grouped in between gray horizontal bars, while currently non-existing NOCs have their name in italics and in a light red background.
