Here we determine which articles are featured on Wikipedia:Featured articles. A featured article should exemplify Wikipedia's very best work. See what is a featured article for criteria. If you nominate an article, you will be expected to make a good-faith effort to address objections that are raised. If you nominate something you have worked on, note it as a self-nomination. Please do not place more than one nomination at a time — this makes it difficult to do each article and its objections justice. You may wish to receive feedback before nominating an article here, by listing it at Wikipedia:Peer review. Consensus must be reached for an article to be promoted to featured article status. If enough time passes without objections being resolved, nominations will be removed from the candidates list and archived. |
