Where to get help
  • If you need help editing or submitting your draft, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. These venues are only for help with editing and the submission process, not to get reviews.
  • If you need feedback on your draft, or if the review is taking a lot of time, you can try asking for help on the talk page of a relevant WikiProject. Some WikiProjects are more active than others so a speedy reply is not guaranteed.

How to improve your article


You can also browse Wikipedia:Featured articles and Wikipedia:Good articles to find examples of Wikipedia's best writing on topics similar to your proposed article.


Improving your odds of a speedy review
To improve your odds of a faster review, try searching for a relevant WikiProject. For instance, if you wrote about a Kenyan astronomer, you might want to search for "Biography", "Astronomy" or "Kenya" to find WikiProject Biography, WikiProject Astronomy, and WikiProject Kenya. You can then add {{WikiProject TOPIC}} at the top of the talk page of this draft, like this. This will let the WikiProjects know a new draft has been submitted.*

Adding the 2–3 most pertinent WikiProjects is plenty. For example, if you add {{WikiProject Physics}}, you do not need to also add {{WikiProject Science}}. If you need help with this, see Where to get help above.

^* This assumes that the WikiProjects in question are active, have a corresponding {{WikiProject TOPIC}} banner, and are subscribed to the Article Alerts system of notifications. Which is the case for most active WikiProjects.
