Welcome to Today's articles for improvement!
(And you thought all the juicy articles had already been written...)

We identify and collaborate upon underdeveloped articles that require improvement. Our goal is to use widespread collaborative editing to improve articles over a short time frame. So far, we have improved hundreds of articles; some have even been promoted to good or featured article status! Boldly edit the current article for improvement, or join the project today!

This week's article for improvement is:

Yellow star, blue check, green plus.svg Assessment[edit]

Our assessment criteria and procedure are explained on the Assessment page. Like many other WikiProjects, TAFI assesses the articles it is involved with. Unlike other projects, we only assess the article's state before and immediately after its week of collaborative editing – that improvement is one (but not the only) measure of our success.

Nuvola apps kcmsystem.svg Automation and templates[edit]

TAFI makes use of various templates. See the Automation page for details, including banners, talk page messages, user and project maintenance templates. The project's bot tasks are also listed here, currently undertaken by MusikBot.
