==Description==
Ya learn smoething new everyday. It's true I guess!
'''WikiCFP''' is a wiki for Calls For Papers.
 
{{tag|Academic}} conferences and journals often broadcast a [http://wikicfp.com/cfp/allcat "call for papers"] on some specific theme.  People doing {{tag|research}} in that area will submit a rough draft paper, and the conference organizers / journal editors will invite the people who "make the cut" to give a full presentation at the conference / write a complete journal article.
 
Some of the most popular themes in 2009 are:
"communications",
"{{tag|artificial intelligence}}" (AI),
"image processing",
"data mining"
"natural language processing" (NLP),
"wireless",
"{{tag|robot}}ics",
"distributed systems", etc.
 
We hope that the "wiki way" will avoid "Scylla and Charybdis" problem: on the one hand, overwhelming people overwhelmed by invitations to too many conferences and journals that they are not at all interested in; and on the other, missing out on what would have been excellent presentations and journal articles by certain people by neglecting to invite those people.
 
{{tag|GreatFeature}}: you can list the conferences you are interested in on your user page, and then "sort by deadline".
