Wikipedia:Requested articles
This is Wikipedia's page for requested articles. If you want to request a new article, this is the right place to start. This is to help you request an article that is not in Wikipedia's database. You may be looking for Wikipedia:Articles for creation.
How to request an article
This page contains many top-level topic headings. Find the heading in which your request fits, and click on that link. You will be taken to another page with sub-topics and other requested pages. Find the sub-topic in which your request best fits, and click on the Edit link next to the heading. In the resulting edit box, add the name of the article you would like to request, plus some information about that article (so others will know what it is you're requesting), especially links to website(s). When you're done, click Save page at the bottom.
Don't be concerned if your request might fit into more than one topic heading. Just pick one and put it there. Also, if you really don't know what topic heading to use, make your best guess and go with it. However, placing your request into the correct topic area improves the chances of an appropriate editor seeing your request and acting upon it.
Please double-check your spelling and capitalization, to avoid requesting an article that already exists.
For Wikipedia editors
Your help is needed to create these articles, and fill them with informative content. Please tag short articles that have already been created as stubs. (To do so, add {{stub}} or a more specific tag to the bottom of the article.)
If you want to do more than just request an article and would like to discuss and plan its creation go to the drawing board.
