[edit] Is it all automated?

Im 100% sure this question has been asked before but i just cant seem to find it and/or the answer. So apologies in advance for any inconvenience caused. Heres my question:

If i were to create an artice for one of the 'Requested Articles' do i have to tell someone that i did so or is there an automatic updating process?

Oh and on the same note do i have to explicitly ask someone to review an article i created or will that be automatically handled?

Thanks in advance.

It's all automatic. When you follow a "red link" to create an article, type in some content, and save your work, the link will immediately turn blue. I've put links to some other helpful information above. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:01, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Requested articles is not automated - if you make an article from there then the red link will turn blue and someone will remove it from the requests list (you don't need to do this yourself).
When you create an article it will pop up in Recent changes - so maybe someone will take a look. However there isn't a formal process to review edits. If you have a great article and you want further opinions you can go to Wikipedia:Peer review.
Or if you want another opinion on an article you could just ask me :)--Commander Keane 12:05, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
Oh yeah... the removal of the article from the requested list is manual. I need coffee. ;) - UtherSRG (talk) 12:18, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I took a look at Omniture. Great job! It has a stub notice, infobox, categories - there's nothing missing, now we just hope that the content gets expanded. About cross linking to 207.net. We have some options:

  1. We can redirect 207.net to Omniture - and deal with both topics in the same article
  2. Make a seperate article for 207.net, and link to it from Omniture in the See also section (which goes just above External links)--Commander Keane 13:10, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
