Wookieepedia:Improvement drive

The improvement drive is a collaboration to improve existing articles to Featured article status.


 * /History – For past winners.
 * /Failed – For failed nominations.

Nomination and voting
Articles to be improved can be nominated by registered users in the "nominations" section below, with an explanation of what work is needed. Please do not nominate articles involved in edit wars. Also, when nominating an article, please put IDRIVE on that article's page so as to inform any visitors of the page of its nomination.

When you vote, please add your vote to the vote total at the Current Ranking section, and make the necessary changes.

Each Sunday, the article with the most support votes is chosen. Opposing votes are not counted. You can vote for as many articles as you like. Articles need two votes per week to stay on the list.

Note: It is considered somewhat rude not to help improving articles you've voted for.

Collaboration
Here are some best practices to use while working on an article selected for the improvement drive:
 * 1. Plan your contribution. After an article has been chosen, it is a good idea to post your ideas for additions, changes and corrections for the topic on the article's talk page. You can then choose some of the listed contributions to avoid overlapping work.
 * 2. Be quick. Use . Once you have planned your work, make your edits quickly, but carefully. Articles chosen for the drive are the likely subjects of many rapid edits. By entering and exiting EDIT mode quickly, you can avoid another user saving a new edit before you have completed your work. If your edit will be more lengthy, place the  tag at the top of the article, save the edit to make the tag appear, and then begin your work.

Nominations

 * The next project article is to be selected on Sunday, September 3.

Please add new nominations at the bottom of the page.

 * This is possibly one of the MOST needed to be improved articles I have EVER seen. Just look at it. I could have fixed a whole bunch of stuff, but then no one would vote for this page. PLEASE help this page. Atarumaster88 14:18, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, there are about 3 other tags on it besides improvement drive- cleanup, attention, and no category. Just one more vote!Atarumaster88 01:32, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Comments
 * Not much information here. Could use some work. This article doesn't need to be selected as improvment of the week, but it could use work. There are a few Red Links here too. (And for the record - Yes SecondSight, I am changing my account name but after I see what happens here :-)

 * Czerka Corporation played a major role in the KotOR storyline, and the hastily put together and somewhat cluttered "history" section hardly does it justice. The reason I haven't started editing it myself is because there are some issues which I think need to be adressed in the arcticle's talk section. -Ambrose 03:31, 20 August 2006

 * This needs to be filled in, lets get it to FA status Jedi Dude 09:17, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * While it needs improved, an I-Drive is not necessarily needed. We can get it to FA status without this, I think. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 16:08, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I think a week of community effort will pull it off nicely though.. Jedi Dude 17:02, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I still disagree, but I made a nice list of what needs to be added on Item 9 on the talk page. Please go there and contribute if you have/know the info needed. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 04:19, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
