Introduction

To vote or nominate you have to be a registered user with at least one contribution that is not a vote. Anyone who does so is encouraged to make at least one edit per vote or nomination to the currently chosen article, Glenn Chadbourne (random unreferenced BLP of the day for 14 Dec 2024 - provided by User:AnomieBOT/RandomPage via WP:RANDUNREF). Any and all articles may be nominated except:

How to nominate

I
Add nomination

Copy and paste the following template to the bottom of the list of nominations on this page and fill it out.
Please be sure to spell the article correctly, THE NAME IS CASE-SENSITIVE! 

==={{la|Article}}===
{{acid|start=December 14, 2024|votes=1}}
<!-- Remember to update the vote counter when you place your vote! -->
; Support:
# ~~~~

; Comments:
* (put your reason for nomination) --~~~~

----

Under "comments" section put explanation of what work is needed.

II
Notify

After submitting the new nomination, go to the nominated article's talk page and put this at the top: 

{{ACIDnom}}

How to vote

Sign with "# ~~~~" on the end of the list of the article you want to vote for and then update the vote count in the subhead. Opposing votes are not counted; see approval voting. You can vote for as many articles as you like. Additionally you can give a comment in the comment section; use terms such as appalling and shocking sparingly, remember that every editor that has ever edited a nominated article probably did so to the best of his of her ability.

How the article is selected

Article with the most votes every two weeks or so is selected as "The current Article Improvement Drive article". If two articles have same number of votes, the nominee with the higher number of hits per day over the previous month wins. The following template:

{{Template:ACIDcur}}

is placed atop the article talk page.

How an article is removed from the list

Nominated articles remain on this page for three "selections", after which that article entry is removed from and moved to the page for removed nominations.

Notes


New nominations go *AT THE BOTTOM* :-)

  • Jupiter is by far the largest of the planets in the solar system and has a massive influence on all the objects around it. Also, Jupiter is a Vital Article and has so far not reached good article status.

  • Cancer research rarely has a week without a major announcement that hits the media, and has multiple major studies coming out every single day. A blanket cure for cancer is supposedly a 50 trillion dollar achievement. At this point we're engineering things as complicated as vaccinia viruses with strong antitumor properties, and we've had various anticancer drugs on the market for years. Yet Pokemon Green has more information than Cure for cancer. I'd like to see a collaboration detailing the major areas of research and their progress forwards. Wikipedia is not a medical journal, but it should be able to give much more information than this. Lesqual 02:22, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • A huge article and perhaps one of the most important pages regarding philosophy on Wikipedia. A lot of effort has been put into it so far. However, the page still lacks proper citation. __earth (Talk) 03:05, 31 October 2006 (UTC)'[reply]

  • The location this article is about will be getting a great deal of attention as the forthcoming 400th anniversary celebration Jamestown 2007 is getting world-wide attention. The article, of special interest to U.S. and U.K. writers, has had a lot added in the past year or so, but is in serious need of attention. The lead is way too long, and there is a lack of consistency and references. This is an excellent candidate for a WP showcase piece, IMHO. Please help, fellow Wikipedians! Thanks. Mark in Historic Triangle of Virginia Vaoverland 17:02, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I second this reasoning. The big 400 is up and I think the article will be in demand. Lets make it a prime example of what this project can do.~ (The Rebel At) ~ 04:01, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • This seems like a major topic. This was the pathway to the millenium and it still must have a place in everyone's hearts. Make it featured, Thamizhan 21:45, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Good Idea. A major topic like Pokémon should have a main article (Which in this case is: Pokémon!). That main article deserves to be featured.

  • Providing detailed information on our own website is vital. The "To Do" list on the talk page includes getting Wikipedia to featured status. Gray PorpoisePhocoenidae, not Delphinidae 20:50, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • High time this article was promoted to FA status again. CloudNine 21:33, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Wikipedia wiki page always needs work. Sharkface217 00:36, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • It looks like another Pluto to me - that page received few improvements as well because the page was already quite large and most of the work was in trying to resolve disputes. The Wikipedia page is already paid attention to enough, and the subject matter is not interesting to the average person either. IMHO of course. Mithridates 09:10, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • WP:ASR says that we are supposed to refrain from self-reference. Clearly there does need to be an article about Wikipedia itself - but paying excessive attention to it because it is a Wikipedia article about Wikipedia is not good. Ask yourself whether you would be so quick to support a nomination for a drive to improve (say) YouTube or Slashdot? If the answer is "No" then you are promoting self-reference and that's against policy. If your answer is "Yes" then please look at the pages for all similar 'social' web sites and encyclopedias, dictionaries, etc - I guarantee that some of those are in greater need of improvement than Wikipedia. Either way, IMHO, one should not support this nomination. SteveBaker 17:32, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article is about a book series that has 13 main books (the first three have been made into a movie) and a few spinoff books. This book series deserves a much better page with much less speculation and orginal research. Clamster5 17:28, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • A series containing some of the best literature of the 20th and 21st century is often understated. This series demands a far more accurate collection of articles which is rid of all the errors and all the instances of original research which already plagues it. Please, we need this to be imporved.[User:Olympic god|Danny]] 14:26, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • This series of novels already has a huge presence on Wikipedia. There are individual pages of characters and concepts all over this website. Nearly all of them, even the page for the series itself, however, are poorly organized and need to be rewritten. I believe it's a popular enough children's series that it warrants some attention. It deserves to be presented in a more professional manner. Pele Merengue 01:21, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't agree more. Theres so much speculation and original research. The series deserves much better pages than this. Clamster5 23:00, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree. The number of errors and pointless mistakes throughout all the articles are pathetic. Wikipedia really must do something. It's the website's obligation to correct this very needy area of the encyclopedia.Danny 20:30, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wikipedia really needs to improve the articles about this popular children's book series by removing all the random, disorganized speculation lists, and creating uniformity and better organization between the pages, not to mention on them. - Hooky6 00:24, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • An article about the highest mountain in the solar system should really be better than B-Class. This page is rated as a Top-importance article and yet it needs lots of work. S.dedalus 22:37, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Article tried and failed to reach FA status once. Obviously of encyclopedic value with a large number of topics related to it, but the article is missing tons of refernces , has too many fair use images, and is poorly organized. Needs tons of help. ElaragirlTalk|Count 16:44, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • All that she said (especially about poor organization), and also this is a high-profile article that I imagine gets a relatively high number of pageviews. It has already been cited in the media several times. --Beefnut 00:08, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • This article is in horrible condition! It was even put up for deletion as a dicdef! For such a common object, this should definitely be a good or even featured article. —EdGl 15:55, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's certainly in a terrible state - but it's a really tough article to write. The term is insanely general. Almost anything you could say about a box, you can come up with a counter-example (eg: "Boxes are cuboids"...argh - except for heart-shaped chocolate boxes...and cylindrical hat boxes...and...OK: "Boxes can be any shape". "Boxes are made from cardboard"...er...or wood, steel, aluminum, paper, plastic...OK "Boxes can be made of anything", how about "Boxes are for storing things in"...except musical boxes, which aren't. "Boxes were invented by..."...urgh...nevermind.) Is there anything you can say about boxes without so many caveats and exceptions as to make the article meaningless? I can't see how to improve it. I'm thinking this should be a disambiguation page that points to all of the various kinds of boxes and that there should not be an article about boxes in general at all. Either way - I'm not voting for it! SteveBaker 15:16, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • That already exists, at Box (disambiguation). I put this article up for deletion - maybe I should have just made it a redirect? Does anyone have any idea how it could actually be improved? Vizjim 15:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Cuper’s Cove is the first attempt for a permanent settlement on the Island of Newfoundland and the birthplace of record for the first European child in Canada. The article requires the expert hand of writer to clean up the language and if possible expand on the information currently in the article. HJKeats 02:10, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • This is of top importance among gaming articles. As a game that's as massively popular (in multiple countries) as it's massively multiplayer, many people will want to read this article. With many of our editors interested in things like this, there won't be too much of a problem upgrading this to featured status.
