Hello, Jahh21, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Good Article nomination

edit

Hi, I wanted to give you a head's up about the Good Article (GA) nomination process. The process is meant to determine if an article meets the GA criteria, which require that the article be well written, be properly sourced and not contain original research, be broad in its coverage (ie, cover the topic without going off into too much detail), be neutral, and stable. While not overwhelmingly difficult to meet, it does take a lot of work for an article to meet those criteria.

The review process itself is something that can take a long time to occur, as the GA review process is always backlogged. As such, it can be months before a GA review is completed and the expectation is that you will remain and fix anything that the reviewer brings up, even if this is after the class ends. I'm not trying to discourage you by any means, but I do want you to be aware of the time involvement. If you do not think that you can fulfill the time requirement, it may be a good idea to remove the nomination.

I'll try to review your article and let you know if anything needs to be worked on, but it may take a while. --Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:32, 8 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Ceoil -- Ceoil (talk) 15:21, 12 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Make sure that you check in with the review - it's a very, very good idea to fix things as they're brought up in the review. This will help the reviewer process the nomination faster and it's generally expected that you'll fix things as they're mentioned. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:27, 13 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Sounds good. Jahh21 (talk) 17:09, 14 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your GA nomination of Carles Casagemas

edit

The article Carles Casagemas you nominated as a good article has failed  ; see Talk:Carles Casagemas for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Ceoil -- Ceoil (talk) 18:21, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
