Wikipedia:AFC

Registered Wikipedians should follow these detailed directions to review the current submissions.

Quick directions (for more experienced reviewers):

Pending article requests can be found in Category:Pending Afc requests.
Pending redirect requests can be found in Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Redirects.
Reviewing an article:
- Verify that the submission is not a copyright violation and meets applicable notability guidelines.
- If the article looks suitable for Wikipedia:
  1. Create the article by moving it into mainspace and removing the {{AFC submission}} tag, as well as any AFC related comments or content from earlier, declined submissions.
    - Consider adding the new article to categories, and tagging it with appropriate cleanup templates.
    - If the article is a stub, add the {{stub}} template, or the appropriate category-specific stub templates.
    - Add {{WPAFC}} to the talk page of the new article to flag it as part of the AFC WikiProject. Also add any other Wikiproject banners that would apply to the article.
  2. Add {{subst:Afc talk|Article Name}} to the talk page user who submitted the article, to inform them that their submission was successful.
- If the article does not look suitable for Wikipedia:
  1. Change the {{AFC submission}} tag to {{AFC submission|D}}.
  2. Remove any copyright violations, personal attacks, or patent nonsense from the submission.
  3. Obvious bad-faith submissions may be tagged for speedy deletion if appropriate.
  4. Include a decline reason in the submission template ({{AFC submission|D|reason}}). Write a custom reason with {{AFC submission|D|reason|Your reason here}}, or choose from the list of standard messages as described in the template's documentation page.
Reviewing a redirect:
- If the redirect is appropriate for Wikipedia (see Wikipedia:Redirects):
  1. Create the redirect as you normally would.
    - Consider adding a redirect template message to the redirect page, when appropriate.
    - Add {{subst:WPAFC}} to the talk page of the redirect to flag it as part of the AFC WikiProject.
  2. Add {{subst:afc redirect}} to the bottom of the section containing the request.
  3. Add {{subst:afc a}} to the top of the section, and {{subst:afc b}} to the bottom, below {{subst:afc redirect}}.
- If the redirect is not appropriate for Wikipedia:
  1. Add the reason for declining the redirect to the bottom of the section containing the request, or add {{subst:afc notarget}} if the submitter failed to specify a target for the redirect.
  2. Add {{subst:afc r}} to the top of the section, and {{subst:afc b}} to the bottom, below the decline reason.
