Portal talk:Heraldry/Selected article archive

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Selected articles are typically high-quality articles on some aspect of heraldry or vexillology, to showcase the content Wikipedia has on this topic.

If you have a suggestion for the next Selected article for the Heraldry and Vexillology Portal feel free to list it below. The article should be rated FA or GA, or have an A-rating from WP:HV.

The Selected article is usually updated on the first of the month.

[edit] Steps to update

  1. Determine whether the page is an Article (A), Biography (B), Coat of arms (C), or Flag (F)
  2. If it's a biography, look for highest numbered page here with a "B" at the end. If that is Portal:Heraldry/Selected article/B/4, create a new summary at Portal:Heraldry/Selected article/B/5.
  3. Update Portal:Heraldry/Selected article to have new=B/5 and start=1 Month Year for the first of the month
  4. Update the article talk page so the WP:HV template has portal=Month Year, or if appropriate use portalbio=
  5. Add the tranclusion for {{Portal:Heraldry/Selected article/B/5}} to the article (or bio) archive with the Month Year as the section header

The selected article will remain for a month, after which it will automatically be replaced by an article of the day if a new selected article is not chosen. The articles are rotated so that if there are two "articles of the day", they will be different articles, and different topics. There won't be two biographies at once.
