Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of new religious movements , cults , the New Age , and related topics, and the organization of information and articles on these topics.

The following is a list of sources included in the bibliographies of reference sources relating to the subject of new religious movements.

It also seeks to ensure NPOV across articles related to religion. It is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians.
