Nuvola apps kword.png Schedule [edit]

This is the schedule for Today's articles for improvement. Here, you can find the articles that have been chosen to be a TAFI, as well as those that are scheduled to be one in the future. Archived entries are accessible here.

Week 19: (Current, until 12th May 2013)
Week 20: (13th May 2013 to 19th May 2013)
When seen from space, the Earth's atmosphere appears blue.


Preparing a scheduled group [edit]

See also: Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement/Next Week

The schedule is automatically transcluded onto the Main Page at 00:00 GMT on Mondays, using subpages of Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement. Each subpage is setup using the format: Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement/Year/Week/Articlenumber. For example, Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement/2013/20/6. The page found at Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement/Year/Week should contain only the randomization code, as well as a <noinclude> transclusion of that week's subpages.

In order to generate the proper code for the next group of articles, copy and paste the previous week's code into the week you are going to create. Then create a numbered subpage starting at 1 for each article in the group. Each of the numbered subpages should only contain a wikilink to the article. The current week subpage is: Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement/2013/20.

Important: please be sure to update the {{TAFI picture box}} template when new weekly TAFI articles are posted.

The article template {{TAFI}} and talk page template {{Former TAFI}} are maintained by bot and should not be added or removed manually.

Start-Class article Film criticism – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 307 (736 yesterday, presumably due to Ebert's death) daily hits

  • Whith online reviewing becoming a much more mainstream thing, and with film becoming seen as an artform in its own right worthy of critique over the past 30/40 or so years, I think this is a brilliant article for us to work on. The great late Roger Ebert wrote a set of film critic guidelines, which I think should definitely be included in the article, as should the ability for the average jo shmo to give their opinion on the movie, free from the pressures associated with being a professional critic in Hollywood (thoguh in some cases like The Nostalgia Critic, their opinions may gain validity within the wider community). A topic we all know a lot about, and one which should be a lot more comprehensive.--Coin945 (talk) 16:04, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

Our assassination articles are notorious for being extremely well-written. When finding a good one to pick for TAFI, I literally saw GA after FA after GA. Way to go wiki-team!! But as us Anglo-centrics are, the assassination of this majorly influencial Egyptian President is still rather underdeveloped. The article needs much more background and legacy info, as well as previous attempts, info on the premises where itt ook place, international reactions etc. The list goes on.--Coin945 (talk) 16:08, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

It includes many links to future articles that were intended to be created. Interestingly enough, many of them have still not been created, yet are undeniably notable. These include: history of sport and sports federations. I redirected the redlink "sporting venues" to the one line stub sport venues - and I think that'll have to be seen to too.--Coin945 (talk) 05:57, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

  1. Support - I'm actually surprised that the Wikipedia:Selected anniversaries crew has allowed this article to be featured on the main page every April 20th with it being so short on content (though it is well referenced). I also would have thought WikiProject Cannabis would have been more active in bumping this article up to at least B class. If this does pass I would hope that it gets featured on TAFI in March so we can take advantage of the increased page visitors and get it up to a better shape by the time next April 20th gets around.
