| |
− | | |
− | #...be well written and detailed
| |
− | #...be unbiased, non-point of view
| |
− | #...be sourced with all available sources and appearances
| |
− | #...follow the [[Wikisimpsons:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] and the [[Wikisimpsons:Layout Guide|Layout Guide]]
| |
− | #...not be the object of any ongoing edit wars
| |
− | #...not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc)

− | <big>''How to nominate:''</big>
| |
− | | |
− | #First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
| |
− | #Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
| |
− | #Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
| |
− | #The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
| |
− | #Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections, it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article".
| |
− | | |
− | <big>''How to vote:''</big>
| |
− | | |
− | #Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
| |
− | #Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either '''support''' or '''object''' the article's nomination.
| |
− | ##If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
| |
− | #As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors.
| |
− | #Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article".
| |
− | | |
− | Also remember to add '''<nowiki>{{nominated}}</nowiki>''' at the top of the article you are nominating.
