Caution.png Keepin mind that everything here is in the middle of a major overhaul after the move from the old domain, especially with the new page structure (i.e., <date>/featured article instead of a portion on a date's page).

Contents

An Article of the Day or AOTD is a small lead-in/teaser placed on the front page describing the featured article that is being showcased that day. Since we don't have a the staff to do all the writeups ourselves, we allow individual users like you to suggest AOTDs and even design the front page intro yourself it you want.

This page not only provides instructions on how to make and get approval for an AOTD, but it also provides a handy list of, and links to, all active and inactive pages in the AOTD namespace.

Creating AOTDs

Criteria

To qualify as an Article of the Day (AOTD), a page should be:

  • Directly related to the date in question somehow, such as:
    • the date of birth/death of the person the page is dedicated to
    • the date a firearm was adopted for use by a major military
    • the date of the passing of significant legislation
  • A complete article; not a stub.
  • Well written, in such a manner that it provides useful information to the reader.

Standards

Approval

NO article should be posted as an AOTD until it has been approved by an administrator.
