Wikipedia:Good article nominations: Difference between revisions
→Good article candidates: change "anyone can review" to "anyone who shows understanding of the criterias and the instructions below " |
→Fail: changing to "You don't have to be specify every flaw" -- it is nice to be detailed, but consider the backlog, the aversion of many editors, and that GA is not a substitute for peer review |

Good article candidatesWikipedia:Good articles is a list of articles considered to be of good quality but which are unlikely to be suitable featured article candidates. The system is unbureaucratic: everyone can nominate good articles, and anyone who shows understanding of the criterias and the instructions below can review it. This list is for proposing possible promotion of articles to the community for consideration. (Consider joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles if you are doing lots of reviewing.) Please list yourself and your special interests in the list of participants reviewing good article candidates if you're interested in joining. |
How to nominate a pageBefore nominating, ensure that you are a registered user and have the time to implement changes or clarifications requested by a reviewer. If you believe an article to be good according to the 'Good Article' criteria:
When you nominate an article, please consider also choosing another article from the list to review. How to identify long articlesTo determine if an article is longer than 32 kB, go to the article and click the edit tab at the top of the screen. Articles longer than 32 kB will display a length warning above the edit box; shorter articles will not. Nomination categories |
How to review an articleThe process for reviewing an article is:
Review carefully—the standards of good articles are only as high as those of the most lenient reviewer! PassIf you feel the article meets the 'Good Article' criteria:
FailIf you feel the article does not meet the 'Good Article' criteria:
On HoldYou may put an article On Hold for up to 7 days if only minor changes or clarifications are needed. If the 7 days expire without the nominator addressing the concern, the article can be failed. To put an article on hold, copy and paste the following below the nomination entry:
Dont forget to specify on the talkpage what needs to be done, using {{GAList}} or plain text of your choosing. |
