Wikipedia:Articles for improvement/Nominations

Shortcuts

This page is for nominating articles to be listed as

articles for improvement
, from which the weekly collaborations are pulled. Any article or list on Wikipedia can be nominated, although articles that do not meet the suggested criteria are unlikely to gain consensus.


Instructions

Suggested criteria

Though there are no firm criteria, in general, ideal AFI articles are:

  • Highly important topics. Anything that has top or high importance to a WikiProject is likely highly important.
  • Interesting to the general public. This can be evidenced by page views. Nominations with less than 200 views per day rarely succeed.
  • Needing of improvement, with expansion opportunity. Stubs; start-class, and short C-class articles are the most ideal for improvement. Give due consideration before nominating higher-quality articles.
  • Not targets of controversy. Keep in mind that controversial articles (articles that are the subject of heated discussion, edit warring, or questioned notability) can be very difficult to improve within a week.

Review process

  • Any user may vote on the suitability of nominations to be listed at AFI.
  • Please use the code #'''Support''' or #'''Oppose''', add your reasoning, and sign with ~~~~. You may also add comments. Improperly formatted votes may be missed by the bot.
  • MusikBot will mark nominations with at least 3 net support votes (3 more support votes than oppose votes) as approved and those with at least 3 net oppose votes as unapproved. The bot will automatically list successful nominations and archive all closed nominations.
  • Registered members of the project may choose to override the bot at their discretion in instances where straight vote totals do not appear to reflect community consensus.

Nominating an article

  1. Check that the article you want to nominate isn't
    already listed
    .
  2. Post the nomination at the top of the list in the appropriate category, using this code: 
    ===(Article title)===
{{AFI nom|article=(Article title)|class=unknown|hits=(Number of daily hits)}}
*(Nomination text) ~~~~
  3. Fill out the parts in parentheses. You can find an article's class on its talk page and its approximate daily hits using this tool.
  4. Please do not support your own nominations.

This level 2 vital article is a "Former featured article candidate" that still has some room for improvement. It has a lot of content, but needs to be cleaned up to be more focused on the topic, and has a few areas that are thin on citations.

Ryuichi Sakamoto

Ryuichi Sakamoto – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 1,308 daily hits

  • To be fair, most of the YMO-related articles might need to be improved, but this is particularly true for the late Sakamoto, the best known member of the trio and a very well-known musician in general, who has still a C-rated article with some sourcing and formatting issues. Oltrepier (talk) 20:37, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Saucer

Saucer – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 149 daily hits

  • Tagged for a decade. Mentions the Middle Ages, so is certainly not a recent invention. And what does it say that flying saucer (which is linked at the top) is in a better state than the common static saucer? Gaois (talk) 00:05, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Oppose, even though the article is tagged for a decade, the hits isn't high enough. SVcode(Talk) 22:20, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This level 4 vital article recently failed a nomination for "Good article." It has several templates related to needing additional sources. It has a significant amount of content and I believe this project can improve it substantially. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 18:02, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tobler's first law of geography

Tobler's first law of geography – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 65 daily hits

  • Tobler's first law of geography is a widely cited and important aspect of the discipline. It is one of the foundations of spatial analysis and one of the primary results of the 21st century "Quantitative revolution". The article is listed as a "start" class and can be tremendously improved. There is a significant amount of peer-reviewed literature related to the topic.GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 22:09, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Remote sensing – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 530 daily hits

  • Remote sensing is a level 4 vital article. However, the page has a template calling for more sources and several unsourced sections. There is a lot of content on this page already and with a bit of work can be dramatically improved.GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 06:10, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

South Yemen – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 714 daily hits

  • Very important article with many sources available. This could easily become a GA or FA Abo Yemen✉ 11:16, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support - Inclined to agree with nom here. Project could really help.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:59, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support, AFI isn't an place to bring decent articles to GA for FA but I think this article needs some copyediting and expansion. SVcode(Talk) 23:12, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split of Christianity and Judaism

Split of Christianity and Judaism – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 100 daily hits

  • This is a rich, complicated topic—an important topic, explaining the historical emergence of Christianity as a discrete religion from a sect of Judaism. The hits are low because the article was only recently created (after having existed in a pretty poor form and later merged for a few years into another article). Zanahary (talk) 06:54, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support - could need some help.--BabbaQ (talk) 10:59, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

1915 genocide in Diyarbekir

1915 genocide in Diyarbekir – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 53 daily hits

  • Although this article is not quite widely read, it is still worthy of being an AFI due to the fact that in spite of being C-rated the section "Deportations and massacres" is nearly empty and genocides and massacres are no unimportant. --RekishiEJ (talk) 13:00, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support - per nom.--BabbaQ (talk) 11:02, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose, after some thought, I decided this article isn't important. Genocides and massacres are sad and important but there are many and this isn't an notable genocide. SVcode(Talk) 22:12, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Oppose per SVcode. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:44, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Spencer Compton, 1st Earl of Wilmington

Spencer Compton, 1st Earl of Wilmington – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - ~121 daily hits

  • The second Prime Minister of Great Britain is obviously a highly notable topic, but currently it's in a terrible state. I suspect some of the information (such as the dates given for his tenure as Speaker of the House of Commons) isn't even correct. Full of [citation needed] tags, and is written like an essay. Could definitely benefit from improvement. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 11:48, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support, vital article that has multiple issues that AFI could help in. SVcode(Talk) 23:22, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Language and literature

The Road Not Taken

The Road Not Taken – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 1079 daily hits

  • This is arguably one of Frost's most famous poems if not of all poetry, at least in the United States, and therefore I feel like the article needs to be improved. The article has some issues currently—it is fairly short, has analysis and popular culture sections that need expanding. I feel like the article should not lean so heavily into the one interpretation of the poem as ironic, as it seems to do in the reception section; while it may be more "correct," at least by how Frost wrote it, but the popular interpretation of the poem is valid in its own right. Honestly, I feel like a lot of the content relating to how the text is misunderstood should be under the analysis section instead. FieryRaven (talk) 16:02, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Extremely high-traffic page about a common medical condition that has been neglected until recently. Enteritis is something that common people will be researching to find out if it's dangerous, how they can handle it, if they need to go to the doctor or ER, etc, and I do not think the current page does a great job of it. A couple of us have made big improvements lately but this is a big topic that could use some more hands. Just-a-can-of-beans (talk) 19:37, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Neutral, has high hits, but I'm not sure if she's an very notable actress. SVcode(Talk) 22:15, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose not relevant enough for an AFI slot. Was nominated for deletion a couple years back as possibly not even notable with barely enough sources, which does not look good for the prospects of what AFI would be able to do across a week. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:40, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

E-Trade

E-Trade – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 383 daily hits

  • E-Trade was one of the first online-only discount brokers, in the 1990s. It's historically important for that reason, on the same level as Amazon.com for books. For the first time it allowed the general public to buy and sell stocks online for very little money. The WP article has devolved to the point it's basically useless for understanding why the company is notable, or its history of pioneering innovation. The article used to be a little better it has actually deteriorated with time. GreenC 22:12, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Neutral, There's an slanted towards recent events tag on the article which means there's an current event going on. So we must wait until the article isn't affected by current events. SVcode(Talk) 23:44, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Russophilia – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 354 daily hits

  • This article is start-rated, and it does not cover Russophilia in Armenia, in spite of the fact that Armenians have been overall quite Russophiliac. It does not cover Russophilia in the United Kingdom sufficiently, either.--RekishiEJ (talk) 12:15, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • This topic, though B-rated, is no doubt problematic because its lead does not fully summarize the rest of it and it does not adequately cover Armenophobia in Russia (e.g. Armenophobia among soldiers of the Imperial Russian Army, see [1], p. 166) and mention that in Germany (cf.
