Revision as of 16:48, 28 July 2015

Suitable articles at the Article nomination board are likely to appeal to a wide variety of editors, and have sufficient potential for improvement: Stub-Class, Start-Class and C-Class articles are ideal for nomination.

Articles and lists nominated here can be about any topic on Wikipedia. To encourage diversity, nominations are listed under the following topical areas:

Be bold! Articles here can can be edited at any time by all users, regardless of project membership status. As such, this page also functions as a general noticeboard for English Wikipedia. All nominations will be automatically archived by MusikBot once they are closed, and successful nominations are automatically listed at the Articles for improvement page.



Articles

The following are nominations to become a Today's article for improvement (TAFI) entry. Please do not nominate an article unless you are fairly certain that it meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Any user may nominate and support or oppose an article below, however only members of this project may close nominations as successful or unsuccessful.

Successful nominations have few or no objections and at least 3 net supports. They are then moved to the holding area and from there into the schedule. Please add new successful entries to the holding area at the end of the section lists. Unsuccessful nominations can be archived after 21 days of no discussion or after 3 net opposing votes.

Please be sure to sign nominations with four tildes: ~~~~
