Wikipedia:Proposed very good articles
|
Proposed very good articles  Very good articles are the highest status of articles at Simple English Wikipedia. In order to become a very good article, there are certain criteria that the article must meet. These criteria can be found at Wikipedia:Requirements for very good articles. This page is to discuss articles to decide whether they meet the VGA criteria. When an article is posted here for discussion, it should have the {{pvgood}} tag placed on it. This will place the article in Category:Proposed very good articles. Articles which are accepted by the community as very good articles have their {{pvgood}} tag replaced with {{vgood}}. They are also listed on Wikipedia:Very good articles and are placed in Category:Very good articles. Articles which are not accepted by the community as very good articles have their {{vgood}} tag removed. Articles that are below the very good article criteria can be nominated to be a good article at Wikipedia:Proposed good articles. In order to make sure the article you are proposing meets the required size, use this tool. Please notice that the text size is important, not the wikitext size.

[change source]Promoted to GA a year ago. Meets all the requirments for a very good article Made some changes, feel like its ready for very good article status. Open to comments Cactus🌵 spiky ツ 09:41, 4 May 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose – It does look good and simple but unfortunately I don't think I can put it at very good just yet. It doesn't seem to be comprehensive enough. Look at the simple wikipedia article on Neptune which is also a very good article and you would see what I mean. I do feel like I am being a bit to harsh here but very good articles should be comprehensive as possible while remaining simple. I would have offered to help get it up to higher standards but I am currently trapped working on the simple Wikipedia page on water. But good luck to you. Maybe somebody else would help or you could argue on why it should be very good. The choice is yours. Cracktastic Science (talk) 09:33, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Oppose - The article lacks substantional information. Just picked the section anatomy. There's nothing about the dog's senses. There is nothing about dog health etc. Also it misses key information about reproduction and much more. -Barras talk 11:59, 29 May 2025 (UTC)
