What is a "comprehensive article?"

A "comprehensive article" is an article that contains all information regarding the topic. Often, "comprehensive articles" cannot reach Featured or Good Article status due to their limited content. This process is intended to recognize articles that contain all relevant canon information, yet are still under the 250 word limit required for a Good Article. The purpose of this is twofold&mdash;firstly, to help users distinguish what is a stub, and what is merely a short article with no further relevant material to be added, and, more importantly, to highlight for the reader when they are reading something that has been judged definitely "comprehensive"&mdash;that is, a guarantee to the reader that whatever they are reading contains the sum total of all available content.

Nominations and promotions of the Comprehensive article process are overseen by a collective of users known as the "EduCorps," which is made up of the Inquisitorius, the AgriCorps, and various other experienced users who are considered qualified to adequately judge the nominated material.

Lucasfilm Ltd. and its many licensees continue to expand the Star Wars universe. Since new information might become available, it may be necessary to revoke a "comprehensive article's" status. A forum will be used to nominate articles that have fallen out-of-date. Members of the EduCorps will then post a warning template on that page, and a grace period of one week will be instituted in which the article can be improved. If there is a significant amount of new information, it is likely that once updated, the article will become eligible for Good article status, and thereby ineligible for Comprehensive article status.

READ THIS FIRST!

An article must&hellip;


 * 1) &hellip;be well-written and detailed.
 * 2) &hellip;be unbiased, non-point of view.
 * 3) &hellip;be sourced with all available sources and appearances.
 * 4) &hellip;follow the Manual of Style, Layout Guide, and all other policies on Wookieepedia. This is, of course, within reason. If a topic only has a very limited degree of content that cannot be divided up into the relevant article sections, it is not required that it follow the Layout Guide precisely. This is to be judged on a case-by-case basis.
 * 5) &hellip;following the review process, be stable, i.e., does not change significantly from day to day and is not the subject of ongoing edit wars. This does not apply to vandalism and protection or semi-protection as a result of vandalism.
 * 6) &hellip;not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc).
 * 7) &hellip;have no redlinks.
 * 8) &hellip;have all relevant canon information presented.
 * 9) &hellip;be completely referenced for all available material and sources. See Sourcing for more information. While this is not required for an article possessing a singular source, it is encouraged, as it provides both uniformity and a good infrastructure should the topic be referenced in any future materials.
 * 10) &hellip;have all quotes and images sourced.
 * 11) &hellip;provide at least one relevant quote on the article if available.
 * 12) &hellip;include a "Behind the scenes" section for in-universe articles.
 * 13) &hellip;counting the introduction, the article body, and "Behind the scenes" material, must not exceed 250 words in length (not including captions, quotes, or headers, etc). Any articles exceeding the limit should be taken to the Good article nominations page for consideration.
 * 14) &hellip;if the nominated article reaches 200 words or greater, the nominator must either provide an intro or draft an intro and provide a link to the revision in the nomination, showing that the intro does not elevate the article over 250 words. Exceptions can be made for articles wherein the majority of the text is in the "Behind the scenes" section.

How to nominate:


 * 1) First, nominate an article you find is worthy of comprehensive status, putting it at the bottom of the list below. Nominated articles must meet all thirteen requirements stated above.
 * 2) Add CAnom at the top of the article you are nominating.
 * 3) Be sure to place sign in the "Nominated by" line when the nomination is posted for voting.
 * 4) Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article in accordance with the established rules.
 * 5) Nominators and supporters will adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied. Objectors may also make alterations&mdash;if there is any reason for contention on a given point, it should be settled in a civil manner in the nomination field itself.
 * 6) Users may not vote on their own articles.
 * 7) There is no limit to the amount of nominations a given user can submit at any given time.

How to vote:


 * 1) Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
 * 2) Afterward, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
 * 3) *If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
 * 4) As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors. Do not strike other users' objections; it is up to the objector to review the changes and strike if they are satisfied.
 * 5) There are several ways in which an article can receive the required number of votes. Within a 48-hour period of nomination, only EduCorps votes will count towards the total, although anyone may choose to vote in that window. If two members of the EduCorps support a nomination in that window, and there are no outstanding objections, the article can be considered a "Comprehensive article" and be tagged with the template 48 hours after the initial nomination.  The talk page will also be tagged with the CA template. When the 48 hours are up, any user's votes will contribute towards the total. If one EduCorps member has voted for an article after a week, three regular votes will be required. After the 48 hour period, an article can still also pass with just two EduCorps votes.
 * 6) Once a nomination is successful, it will be placed on the Comprehensive article list. Instructions on how to archive nominations, successful or otherwise, can be found here. Anyone can archive a nomination&mdash;just make sure it has the correct number of votes, has been nominated for at least a week (or 48 hours if there are two EC votes), and that there are absolutely no outstanding objections. If you are not sure how to do this, just ask, and someone will likely be more than willing to help you. Also, if you think you can slip one past us, think again&mdash;someone is always watching you.

All nominations will be considered idle and are subject to instantaneous removal by EduCorps members if objections are not addressed, or at least not answered, after a period of 1 week.

Please remember to archive your nomination beforehand if you plan on taking it to the Good Article Nominations page.

 * 1) I don't understand the statement, "They do not appear in the game's campaign." Perhaps you could be more explicit.  graestan ( talk ) 18:40, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) *Better? MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 20:24, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 3) Are you certain the mention of their usefulness against mech units doesn't belong in the BtS with other game mechanics info? Does the game itself mention that? Also, use of the term "mech" is a bit colloquial, and I am not sure how to link it. Mechanized infantry?  graestan ( talk ) 18:40, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 4) *Well, the Prima Guide states that. I figured it could go into the body since it's a special unit, and therefore it's not just for gameplay reasons that the unit is good against mechs. As for the linking, idk. This is my first unit article, so I'm in the dark. MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 20:22, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 5) *Thanks for the review! :) MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 20:24, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 6) **I changed it to "mechanized" but I still think the wording of the last two sentences sound more like game guide than canon encyclopedia entry. Play with them a bit, make them into a story. graestan ( talk ) 20:32, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 7) ***I reworded some. It's hard to make the statistics sound less "gamey" without going POV. 9_9 lol Lemme know if that's good. :) MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 20:39, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 8) ****I hope my final tweak is kosher. graestan ( talk ) 20:56, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * 9) The Premier
 * 10) I was wrong, they do appear in the campaign. 7 of them defend Harte Secur during the 2nd TF mission. This needs included. Corellian PremierRobotech.jpg along the watchtower 01:13, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 11) *Haha, no, I was wrong, because I checked. XD I didn't think to check the TF campaign. Stupid me. 9_9 lol Anyway, added. MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 14:42, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 12) **We would need to remove (Multiplayer only) then from at least GB in the appearances. Corellian PremierRobotech.jpg along the watchtower 16:10, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 13) ***Ah yes. Fixed. MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 16:23, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 14) They are identified as "Royal Crusaders" in the game databank. Would a move be in order? Corellian PremierRobotech.jpg along the watchtower 01:13, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 15) *The game guide calls them "royal crusaders" multiple times. Which should we go with? MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 14:42, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 16) **True, but wouldn't the game's databank trump the guide? Corellian PremierRobotech.jpg along the watchtower 17:05, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 17) ***I guess so. It's been moved. MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 19:16, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 18) Exiled Jedi
 * 19) *Please mention who was invading Naboo in the body of the article.
 * 20) **Mentioned.
 * 21) *Please say who was victorious at Harte Secur.
 * 22) **Good?
 * 23) *I'm not sure if you should mention this, but the Elite Royal Crusaders had shield generators protecting them.
 * 24) **Meh, I guess so. Mentioned.
 * 25) *Are you sure that you should have their game statistics in the BTS? The statistics for every unit in the game can be changed by different upgrades. I also did not think that we included the actual game statistics in articles. Any thoughts on this?-- Exiled Jedi  Oldrepublic crest.svg (Greetings)  19:32, February 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * 26) **Cal said yes, but that's two who have said no. I've removed them.
 * 27) ***Meh. Haven't done articles from GB type games before. Sorry for the confusion.&mdash; Cal Jedi Infinite Empire.svg (Personal Comm Channel) 01:30, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * 28) *Thanks for the review! MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 19:36, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * 29) Rubedo
 * 30) *Don't list out statistics that way. They should be prosified (no numbers) and you should write out what they represent, i.e. "Royal Crusaders were stonger than other melee units in the game" or some such. Whatever Armor and DuraArmor mean, that might be something for the body. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 20:39, February 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * 31) **There's not really a way to word it. I have no idea what "DuraArmor" and "Armor" represent IU. I think it's merely game mechanics.
 * 32) *Further, "The unit is weak against Jedi and aircraft and is strong against turrets, assault mechs, and troopers" should be prosified in an IU way and put in the body. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 20:41, February 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * 33) **Better?
 * 34) *Thanks for the review! MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 19:36, February 7, 2012 (UTC)

 * This is my first video game unit article, so should all the game statistics for the unit be included in the Bts, such as Attack points, etc.? MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 20:28, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * That probably would be a good idea for comprehensiveness.&mdash; Cal Jedi Infinite Empire.svg (Personal Comm Channel) 03:37, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Added. MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 16:28, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * This thing is totally hijacked by the later objections, so I have to withdraw support and re-review once they are satisfied. At the very least I will say that game mechanics of such specificity do not belong on a canon wiki. This was one of the earliest debated issues on this site. graestan ( talk ) 05:53, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey Fred, I saw that you added the NEC as a source. Are the Crusaders mentioned in there? Corellian PremierRobotech.jpg along the watchtower 03:31, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

 * 1) Corellian Premier
 * 2) Missing info in the second sentence. It ends at "the."
 * 3) *Sorry, editing brainfart.
 * 4) Also, is he identified in any way in the credits, perhaps as "Landing controller" or somesuch? Corellian PremierRobotech.jpg along the watchtower 21:27, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * 5) *Yes, but only as "Prison guard #2". #1 is Corey Burton, but the voice of the controller is clearly not his and sounds similar to some of Rabson's other work, so I think it is a reasonable assumption to make given that no other credited role would fit. IMDB is a copy of the in-game credits; I've checked both. Thanks for the review,  &mdash;NA YAYEN  21:36, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
