* First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above. 2.
* Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources). 3.
* Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied. 4.
* The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue. 5.
* Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections, it will be added to the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article". 1.
* Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes. 2.
* Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination. 3. 1.
* If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved. 4.
* As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors. 5.
* Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article". 6.
* A user can only nominate one article a month. 7.
* All nominations must be put at the bottom of the page. Also remember to add {{nominated}} at the top of the article you are nominating.
