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.

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.

 * For an organisation that plays such a prominent role in the Prequels, it has a rather small article, I thought. I'm sure we can come up with more about the TFs relationship with Sidious and Dooku, and their role in the Clone War. --beeurd 20:07, 25 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * The Trade Federation plays a prominent role in the Prequel era and they get a small article! They were a superpower during that era and the Galactic Republic could not help Naboo at all!! This article needs more work on! --MyNz 9:08, 30 Oct 2005 {UTC)
 * More than half of the article is "Associations". How did such an important article go bad?!--Kumarhk 09:26, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)

 * The single most important factor in the Battle of Naboo has a three-sentence article. I mean come on people. MarcK 23:28, 25 Oct 2005 (UTC)

 * Related to above, the Blockade of Naboo was the central plotline of Episode I, and yet you could read its article without even scrolling down. MarcK 23:28, 25 Oct 2005 (UTC)

 * Way too short, makes no reference to the events of Episode III, and, gasp, doesn't even mention the Battle of Endor! The EU sections could definately use some work too. --Azizlight 14:36, 6 Nov 2005 (UTC)
