Review waiting, please be patient.

This may take 3 months or more, since drafts are reviewed in no specific order. There are 2,549 pending submissions waiting for review.

If the submission is accepted, then this page will be moved into the article space.
If the submission is declined, then the reason will be posted here.
In the meantime, you can continue to improve this submission by editing normally.

Where to get help

If you need help editing or submitting your draft, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. These venues are only for help with editing and the submission process, not to get reviews.
If you need feedback on your draft, or if the review is taking a lot of time, you can try asking for help on the talk page of a relevant WikiProject. Some WikiProjects are more active than others so a speedy reply is not guaranteed.

How to improve a draft

Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia – a basic overview on how to edit Wikipedia.

Improving your odds of a speedy review

To improve your odds of a faster review, tag your draft with relevant WikiProject tags using the button below. This will let reviewers know a new draft has been submitted in their area of interest. For instance, if you wrote about a female astronomer, you would want to add the Biography, Astronomy, and Women scientists tags.

WP:WikiProject North America

Wikipedia:WikiProject North America
Wikipedia:North America

Description

This project would cover North America, one of the few regions of the world without a supranational coordination wikiproject. It would cover Canada, USA (lower 48+DC and Alaska), Mexico, Greenland, St.Pierre-et-Miquelon, Gulf of Mexico. The southern island nations are already covered by WP:CARIBBEAN, so are not included. This would ease issues with pre-national-existencearticles that covered areas across borders, and for histories of regions prior to their incorporation into these nations. 76.66.193.224 (talk) 08:14, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
