Article Improvement Drive

Mixed Martial Arts article improvement drive is part of the WikiProject on Mixed Martial Arts and is a periodic collaboration to improve mixed martial arts articles to featured article status. Past collaborations are found on the history page, while removed nominations may be found on the removed nominations page. Previous winners that have gone on to become featured articles can be found at Featured collaborations.

Nomination and voting

Articles to be improved can be nominated by registered users in the "nominations" section below, with an explanation of what work is needed. To nominate an article, you can copy the template that you will below. Please do not nominate articles involved in edit wars. At the end of a voting period, the article with the most support votes is chosen. Opposing votes are not counted, the nomination is an approval voting. In case of a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins. You can vote for as many articles as you like. As with any other vote on Wikipedia, sockpuppets are banned.

Renominating

An article that is removed from the nominations list for failing to receive the required number of votes by the stipulated date cannot be renominated in the following nomination period.

CAST YOUR VOTE for next week's article

The project currently possesses no Featured Articles.

Considerations for nominations

  • Giving reasons as to why an article should become the MMA AID may convince others to cast their vote.
  • Can the wider MMA/fightsports community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?

[edit] Chuck Liddell

Nominated Aug 9, 2007; needs at least 3 votes of support by August 16, 2007

Reason: Chuck Liddell is one of the more well-known names of Mixed Martial Arts (they even mentioned him on CSI once...) It's probably a very frequently visited article. He has a substantial amount of material related to his fighting career and work outside of fighting. A collaboration to organize of all of this into a good article would could set the example all other fighter biographies.
