[edit] Procedure
The goal of this process is to get more articles related to Indigenous peoples of North America up to Featured Article status. The nomination process here is a little more relaxed, but articles that meet the featured article requirements are more likely to gain support here as well. As articles are promoted or rejected, their discussions are archived.
[edit] Nominating articles
- Find an article related to Indigenous peoples of North America that you think is very good. It need not be a current Featured Article, but if it is, it could only help the nomination.
- If the article was previously nominated for featured status, or if it has been on peer review, try to resolve as many of the remaining objections as possible.
- In the nominations section below, add a third level section header with the linked page title as the section name (=== [[Page title]] ===). Below this new header, add your reasons for nomination and sign your nomination with ~~~~.
