Featured articles in Wikipedia Featured articles are considered to be some of the best articles Wikipedia has to offer, as determined by Wikipedia's editors. They are used by editors as examples for writing other articles. Before being listed here, articles are reviewed as featured article candidates for accuracy, neutrality, completeness, and style, according to our featured article criteria.There are 5,703 featured articles out of 5,995,413 articles on the English Wikipedia (~0.1% are featured). Thus, about one in 1,050 of all Wikipedia articles are listed here. Articles that no longer meet the criteria can be proposed for improvement or removal at featured article review. On non-mobile versions of our website, a small bronze star icon ( ) on the top right corner of an article's page indicates that the article is featured. On most smartphones and tablets you can also select "Request Desktop Site" to see this line (do a search to find out how). Additionally, if the current article is featured in another language, a star will appear next to the corresponding entry in the Languages list in the sidebar. |
