Wookieepedia:Comprehensive article nominations/instructions

This subpage contains instructions on how to archive past Comprehensive article nominations and reviews. The archived votes can be found here and here. The EduCorps uses the functions of JocastaBot to archive nominations in Wookieepedia's Discord server's #status-article-commands channel.

Successful nominations

Once an article has a total of three EduCorps votes or two EduCorps votes and three user votes after at least two days and no outstanding objections, the article can be officially known as a "Comprehensive article." This table can be used to determine if an article is eligible to be thus removed from the Comprehensive article nominations page:

Time elapsed	Day 1 24 hours	Day 2 48 hours	More than two days More than 48 hours
Required votes	Cannot pass		Can pass with: three EduCorps votes, or at least five votes, of which at least two must be EduCorps votes

• Ensure that the EduCorps approval template has been added. If not, add the following to the Comments section:

{{ECapproved|~~~~~}}

• Run the command (in #status-article-commands):

@JocastaBot successful CAN: NominationName

• Add article to Wookieepedia:Comprehensive articles (specifically the Canon, Legends, or Out-of-universe subpages as appropriate).
  • When adding article to Wookieepedia:Comprehensive articles, display it like [[Bob (naval officer)]] or [[Victorious (Acclamator-class)|''Victorious'' (''Acclamator''-class)]], as opposed to [[Bob (naval officer)|Bob]] or [[Victorious (Acclamator-class)|''Victorious'']].

Failed nominations

Nominations that are inactive with outstanding objections after one week may be removed from the nomination list with a consensus of at least 3 EC support votes. Comprehensive article nominations may also be closed prematurely with a consensus of at least 3 EC support votes if they fall below the required standard and cannot realistically be fixed.

Any nomination may be closed early at the request of the original nominator without the need for a consensus. Additionally, nominations in violation of rules 9 and 10 of the "How to nominate" section of the Comprehensive article nominations page should be immediately removed without need for consensus or archiving.

Voting to remove

To initiate a vote to remove a nomination, add the following under the Comprehensive article nomination's comments section:

===Vote to remove nomination (EC only)===

The EduCorps member who initiates the vote should state clearly why the nomination should be removed. All EduCorps members should use the {{EC}} template when voting, and clearly indicate whether they support or oppose removing the nomination.

Removing nominations

• EduCorps members can run the command (in #status-article-commands):

@JocastaBot unsuccessful CAN: NominationName

• Nominators withdrawing their own nomination can run the command (in #status-article-commands):

@JocastaBot withdrawn CAN: NominationName

Overriding Comprehensive article nomination objections

EduCorps members have the power to strike objections on the Comprehensive article nomination page provided the objection has been addressed and the original objector has been absent for at least a week after an "objection addressed" comment is left on the Comprehensive article nomination page. This requires a quorum of at least 3 EduCorps members approving the removal of the objection, and less than 2 opposed. Additionally, Comprehensive article nomination objections can be struck by an EduCorps member if they do not fall under one of the rules. No vote is required.

To initiate a vote to override an objection, add the following under the Comprehensive article nomination's comments section:

====Vote to strike objection (EC only)====

The EduCorps member who initiates the vote should state clearly which objection needs striking and why. All EduCorps members should use the {{EC}} template when voting, and clearly indicate whether they support or oppose overriding the objection.

When the decision has been taken to override an objection, add the following as a comment under the objection, in addition to striking it:

{{ECstrike|~~~~~}}

Comprehensive article status review

The EduCorps has the ability to strip an article of Comprehensive article status. An overview of the process can be found here.

Tagging an article for review

• Any user can nominate an article for Comprehensive article status review if the article needs improvement. The two ways this can be done are:
  • Adding {{CAreview}} to the top of the article, then creating and filling out the resulting subpage.
  • Run the below command (in #status-article-commands), then create and fill out the resulting subpage:

    • @JocastaBot create review for NominationName

Review process

• An article can retain its status when:
  • There are no outstanding objections left on the review page.
  • The review has been open for at least 48 hours.
  • Three EduCorps members have voted to retain the article's status.
• An article under review can be sent to probation if:
  • Outstanding objections on the review page have not been addressed for over thirty days, without an extension request from any editor.
  • Major changes have been made to the article since its original status nomination.
• An article can have its status revoked if:
  • The article has been on probation for over a month, with objections still unaddressed.
  • Three EduCorps members have voted to remove the article's status.

• An article can have its status instantly revoked if:
  • The article violates Comprehensive article word count rules and cannot realistically be brought into compliance with the expectations of said rules.
  • A request is made to remove the article's status so that a nominator can update the page and re-nominate it for status at a later date.
  • Three EduCorps members have voted to remove the article's status.

Review commands

• If a Comprehensive article is kept:
  • Run the command:

    @JocastaBot mark review for NominationName as passed

• If a Comprehensive article is sent to probation:
  • Run the command:

    @JocastaBot mark review for NominationName as on probation

• If a Comprehensive article is removed:
  • Run the command:

    @JocastaBot revoke status for NominationName

  • Remove the article from the appropriate subpage of Wookieepedia:Comprehensive articles.

Manual archiving instructions

In the event JocastaBot is offline for an extended period of time, nominations and reviews can be archived manually as follows:

Successful nominations

• Ensure the nomination has enough votes to pass.
• Ensure that the EduCorps approval template has been added. If not, add the following to the Comments section:
