    The Fox-Wright function \(_p\Psi_q\) is defined by \[ _p\Psi_q\left[\left.\begin{matrix} (\alpha_1,A_1), \dotsc, (\alpha_p,A_p)\\ (\beta_1,B_1), \dotsc, (\beta_q,B_q)\end{matrix} \right|z\right]=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{\prod_{i=1}^p\Gamma(\alpha_i+A_ik)}{\prod_{j=1}^q\Gamma(\beta_j+B_jk)}\frac{z^k}{k!}. \] The authors prove dozens of summation formulas for these functions for special values of \(p\) and \(q\) and for special arguments. To show some of the results, we list two formulas: \[ _2\Psi_3\left[\left.\begin{matrix} (1+a+n,b-1),(3a,3b-1)\\ (1+3n,-1),(a-n,b),(1+3a,3b-2)\end{matrix}\right|-\frac13\right]=\frac{(-1)^n}{3n!27^n}, \] \[ _2\Psi_3\left[\left.\begin{matrix}(1+a+n,b-1),(3a,3b-1)\\ (2+3n,-1),(a-n-1,b),(1+3a,3b-2)\end{matrix}\right|-\frac13\right]=(-b)\frac{(-1)^n}{3n!27^n}. \]
