About Wikipedia This has too much information (wish they'd broken it down into separate pages), BUT what you're looking for is in heading 3, "Contributing to Wikipedia."

Wikipedia: Good Articles From _Wikipedia_: "Good articles are articles which are considered to be of good quality but which are not yet, or are unlikely to reach featured article quality. Good articles should meet the good article criteria and have passed through the good article nomination process successfully. In short, they should be well written, factually accurate and verifiable, broad in coverage, neutral in point of view, stable, and illustrated, where possible, by relevant images with suitable copyright licenses. Good articles need not be as comprehensive as featured articles, but they should not omit any major facets of the topic: a comparison of the criteria for good and featured articles describes further differences." In short, these are a step below featured. [Updated 2/09] |
