Process: A-Class may only be assigned following an coordinator who determines whether consensus to promote exists. Promotion typically requires both a source and image review, and a minimum of three uninvolved editors to confirm that the article meets all five A-Class criteria:
- A1. The article/list is consistently referenced with as appropriate.
- A2. The article/list is comprehensive, factually accurate, neutral and focused on the main topic; it neglects no major facts or details, presents views fairly and without bias, and does not go into unnecessary detail.
- A3. The article/list has an appropriate structure of hierarchical headings, including a concise lead sectionthat summarizes the topic and prepares the reader for the detail in the subsequent sections, and a substantial but not overwhelming table of contents.
- A4. The article/list is written in concise and articulate English; its prose is clear, is in line with style guidelines, and does not require substantial copy-editing to be fully MoS-compliant.
- A5. The article/list contains appropriately licensed supporting visual materials, such as images or diagrams with succinct captions, and other media, where relevant.
