This star represents the proposed very good content on Wikipedia.

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.


Joining the talk

If you choose to participate in the discussion process for promoting articles, it is very important that you know and understand the criteria for very good articles. Discussing an article is a promise to the community that you have thoroughly read the criteria and the article in question. You should be prepared to fully explain the reasons for your comment. This process should not be taken lightly, and if there is concern that a user is not taking the process seriously and/or is commenting without reason, they may have their privilege to participate taken away.

A very complete article, full of references, with a simple language. Jon Gua (talk) 06:47, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

oppose the prose in this article is far, far to complex. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 20:56, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you help me improve the article then, please? --Jon Gua (talk) 07:13, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
this is basically an exact copy of the enwiki article. This is the simple wiki, we require things to be written in simple language. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 21:01, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The article is no where near being able to be a VGA as it's far, far too complex and is very confusing to read. It wouldn't even make a GA. I'm even thinking that it could be deleted as too complex. fr33kman 20:53, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above, far too complex and similar to enwiki for me to consider this worthy of VGA status.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 14:11, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is a nice idea, and an interesting (and likely important) subject. In the case of the current article, you should try with shorter sentences. You should also try getting it to GA first. As it is now, there likely is quite a bit of work left Eptalon (talk) 23:12, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Far Too complex in this article, I think is non-simple article. Raayaan9911 18:41, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose This isn't even remotely close to being a GA. ~Junedude433talk 22:40, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can this just be closed now? I can't see anybody supporting the pages promotion and the discussion has been open for over 3 weeks.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 11:31, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
despite the fact I've !voted, I'm happy to close this as WP:SNOW, if no one has any objections. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 22:35, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
