- Any article with at least 55% support for inclusion will be retained
- Any article with at least 55% opposition for inclusion will be removed
Process for removing articles
editProces for removing articles while we are under or right at quota
editThe purpose of this discussion page is to select 10,000 topics for which Wikipedia should have high-quality articles. All Wikipedia editors are welcome to participate. Individual topics are proposed for addition or removal, followed by discussion and !voting. It is also possible to propose a swap of a new topic for a lower-priority topic already on the list.
In general all discussions remain open for a minimum of 15 days, after which they may be closed anytime as PASSED if at least five !votes have been cast in support, and at least two-thirds of the total !votes are in favor of the proposal; or they may be closed as FAILED if at least five !votes have been cast in opposition and the proposal has failed to earn more than one-third support.
After 30 days any proposal may be closed as FAILED if it has earned at least 3 opposes and failed to earn two-thirds support; or it may be closed as NO CONSENSUS if the proposal hasn't received any !votes for 30 or more days regardless of the current !vote tally.
After 60 days any proposal may be closed as NO CONSENSUS if it has failed to earn at least 5 support !votes and two-thirds support. Please be patient with our process; we believe that an informed discussion with more editors is likely to produce an improved and more stable list.
When you are making a decision whether to add or remove a particular topic from the Vital Articles Level 4 list, we strongly recommend that you review and compare the other topics in the same category in order to get a better sense of what other topics are considered vital in that area. We have linked the sublists at the top of each proposal area.
Proces for removing articles while we are over quota
editProcess is the same like process for addition for articles with one difference: #One user can report one article at week (in other case spomeone could report 30 articles and all could be passed as 3-2 result weekly)
Proces for changes of quota
editProcess for changes of quota (for example 1100/1100 sport figures for 1300/1300 musicans etc.):
- Process should have although 15 all votes and process should be simillar to consensus at the level 1
