How to nominate an article

Before 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:

  1. List the article at the bottom of the relevant section below using the syntax: # {{la|ArticleName}} ~~~~ with an edit summary of "Nominating [[ArticleName]]"
  2. Add {{GAnominee|2024-07-19}} to the nominated article's talk page.

When you nominate an article, please consider also choosing another article from the list to review.

How to withdraw a nomination

If you wish to withdraw your nomination, just remove the article's listing from this page and the {{GAnominee}} template from the article's talk page. Please leave a comment on the article talk page explaining your reasons for withdrawing the nomination.

Articles that have been withdrawn can, of course, be renominated at any time.

Nomination categories

Arts
Language and literature
Philosophy and religion
Everyday life
Social sciences and society
Geography
History
Engineering, applied sciences and technology
Mathematics
Natural sciences
Miscellaneous (if unsure what section to use)

How to review an article

  1. Choose an article to review, noting:
    • only registered users may review articles — check you are logged in;
    • you cannot review an article if you have made significant contributions to it prior to the review, nor can you review an article if you are the nominator;
    • you should not pass an article that was put on hold by another editor without assessing the problem;
    • nominations towards the tops of the lists are older, and should be given higher priority.
  2. Paste #:{{GAReview}} ~~~~ below the entry; this avoids multiple reviews of the same article.
  3. Check the "quick-fail criteria" before reading the article in detail: if a quick fail is appropriate, add your reason to the talk page and go to the fail process; otherwise continue with the next step.
  4. Read the whole article, and decide whether it should pass or fail based on the criteria listed here. You can also put the article "On Hold" or ask for a second opinion. If you wish, you can inform the nominator of your action (e.g., using {{subst:GANotice}}).
  5. Reviewers are encouraged (but not required) to fix problems with the article under review.

Review carefully — see Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles for more suggestions.

Pass

If you feel the article meets the Good article criteria:

  1. Remove the article from the nominations list using the edit summary "Passed [[''ArticleName'']]".
  2. Remove {{GAnominee}} from the article's talk page and either add {{GA|~~~~~}}[1] or update the {{ArticleHistory}} template.[2] Please include "GA" in your edit summary.
  3. Leave a review of the article, giving an overview of how you believe the article fulfills the Good article criteria (with suggestions to improve the article, if you can). {{subst:PGAN}} may help you organise the critique. You can also use {{subst:GAList}} or {{subst:GAList2}} to generate a checklist. Please also encourage the successful nominator(s) to review an article themselves.
  4. List the article on Wikipedia:Good articles under the appropriate section. Consider listing it at the top of the good articles page under "Recently listed good articles".

Fail

If you feel the article does not meet the Good article criteria:

  1. If the problem is easy to resolve, it might be better to be bold and fix it yourself.
  2. Otherwise, remove the article from the nominations list using the edit summary "Failed [[Article Name]]".
  3. Remove {{GAnominee}} from the article's talk page and either add {{FailedGA|2024-07-19}}[1] or update the {{ArticleHistory}} template.[2] Please include "GA" in your edit summary.
  4. State which criteria were not met on the article's talk page. The template {{subst:FGAN}} may help you organize the critique. You can also use {{subst:GAList}} or {{subst:GAList2}} to generate a checklist. Please detail the article's flaws to help other editors improve the article for another GA nomination.
  5. If your sole criterion for rejecting the article was a lack of appropriate references, please add the article to the Unreferenced GA Nominations list.

On Hold

You may put an article "On Hold" for a period of time. To put an article on hold:

  1. Copy and paste the following below the nomination entry:
    #: {{GAOnHold|ArticleName}} ~~~~.
  2. On the talk page of the article, replace {{GAnominee}} with {{GAonhold|2024-07-19}}.
  3. Don't forget to specify on the talk page what needs to be done. You may use {{subst:GAList}} to generate a list, or {{subst:GANOH}} for greater explanation and/or plain text.

Second opinion

If you are uncertain whether an article fully meets the Good article criteria, you may ask for a more experienced reviewer or subject expert to offer a second opinion on the article. To make such a request:

  1. Copy and paste the following below the nomination entry:
    #: {{GA2ndopinion|ArticleName}} ~~~~.
  2. On the talk page of the article, replace {{GAnominee}} with {{GA2ndoptalk|2024-07-19}}.
  3. Don't forget to review the article yourself, stating what needs to be done on the article's talk page, using {{subst:GAList}} to generate a list, {{subst:GANOH}} for greater explanation and/or plain text - according to your choosing.

If this does not resolve the matter, consider listing the article at Good article reassessment.

  1. ^ a b It is also helpful to add an "oldid" and "topic" to the template, using the syntax {{GA|04:27, 19 July 2024|oldid=nnnnnn|topic=topic name}}. Replace nnnnnn by the id number of the reviewed version, which may be found by clicking the "Permanent link" in the toolbox on the left side navigation bar of the page: the id number is to be found in the url after the word 'oldid'. The topic name should be one of the topic abbreviations.
  2. ^ a b The {{ArticleHistory}} template allows other editors to follow the article's milestones such as peer review and FAC in addition to GAN: the syntax needs to be followed carefully for the template to display correctly. When finished building ArticleHistory, please scroll to the bottom of the talk page to make sure the red ArticleHistory error category is not highlighted.
