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, June 25.

Please add new nominations at the bottom of the page.

 * WTF? --UVnet 02:56, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I think this should be a major, important article.
 * I was actually pretty proud of what I wrote there, but I will admit it is lacking in places. -- SFH 04:31, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * To be continued...? And a picture whould be nice. -- Cato Neimoidia 12:13, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Something like this, perhaps? :-P -- Ozzel 04:27, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
 * That's an interesting idea for an image. As another idea, how about a red circle with a red line through it using this image? Jaywin 16:46, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I think they ment something a little more IU, perhaps. -- SFH 00:09, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Comments
 * Malak, an important individual within the Knights of the Old Republic series, page needs some serious maitenence. Images are out of order. Although the beginning of article can stand do without expansion, as it goes on it just becomes a mess and needs some extension. Does our favorite jaw-less Sith Lord really deserve an out of order page? --Redemption 14:08, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I rearranged the images so they make more sense chronoligically now. That was all that was really wrong with the article.  Does this really need to be here?  Out-of-order images don't take an improvement drive to fix.  The article's not perfect, I'll grant you, but it needs nowhere near the attention of most of the other articles here.  Thetoastman 05:28, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. This one isn't bad enough to be on the improvement drive. I think it just needs some major copyediting and I have already started working on it...--Sentry 08:56, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

 * There's nothing about it!!! Expand it! SkywalkerPL 11:28, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow. Probably one of the top ten most important subjects in Star Wars, and there's six or seven sentences on it.  --Thetoastman 18:45, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

 * This article pretty much needs to be expanded, since this is Wookiepedia's speciality. Not offencive but Wikipedia's and Wookiepedia's article on the Rancor are similar. Nothing fancy. (Ps: did i do this right?)
 * Yep, Also there could be written more about it's familly life SkywalkerPL 11:54, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
