[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

  1. 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.
  2. 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 ~~~~.
