The Canada Collaboration is an effort to improve Canada-related articles in Wikipedia, with an aim toward creating a feature-standard article during the month-long cooperative editing process. Anyone can nominate an article, or vote for a nominated article.
The project maintains a list of previously-nominated articles, a list of winning collaborations, and a partial list of participants in the project.
Selecting the next collaborationEdit
The Canadian Collaboration article selection is suspended.
Nominating an articleEdit
To nominate an article for the Canada collaboration, follow this process:
| I. | Add entry to list.
Edit this article, and append the following to the end of the list:
Be sure to replace Article with the title of the article you are nominating. Please do not mark the edit as minor. Save the page. You should now see a link to the nomination page in the text; follow it. For example, this is needed to add Northwest Territories to the list of nominations:
|
| II. | Create the nomination.
Add this text to the new page:
Put the page's name in place of "Article" and include your reason after reason=; nothing else should change. For example, the entry to nominate Northwest Territories would be:
If the page was not originally empty, the above text should go at the beginning. Check the "Watch this page" box if you would like to follow the voting process in your watchlist. Save the page. |
If the page you are nominating already exists, please add {{Possible Canada COTW}} to the top of its talk page.
VotingEdit
If you support an article, please vote by clicking on edit by the article's title, and add a new line with the text "# ~~~~". This will add your username and the time you signed automatically. Please add comments that might help others .
- Please only add support votes - opposing votes will not affect the result as the choice is done by approval voting (the most votes, wins). Note your opposition under the Comments section.
- Vote for as many candidates as you like.
- A vote implies that you will make some contribution to the article if it is chosen.
- Only registered users should vote.
- Being Canadian is not a requirement to vote!
SelectionEdit
Each month, the collaboration is chosen based on the article with the largest amount of support. In case of a tie, voting will be extended for 24 hours. If there is still a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins.
When a new selection has been made, the {{Current Canadian COTW}} template should be placed on the successful candidate's article page, and the following files need to be updated:
- Wikipedia:Canada collaboration (i.e. - this file)
- Wikipedia:Canada collaboration/current
- automatically updates Template:Canada COTW, Wikipedia:Goings-on and Wikipedia:Community Portal
- Wikipedia:Canada collaboration/History the new Collaboration to be placed there
Wikipedia:Watch/collaborations- page is not currently in use
PruningEdit
An article is removed from the list of nominations if it has not reached 3 votes by the end of the next complete choosing interval, or not chosen for two months. Removed nominations are listed at /Removed.
