Plants Wiki:Deciding FA

WARNING: In the future, this is expected to change!

This is a guide to how FA is decided.

1. The featured article is decided through the polls and what people put on the talk pages. 1a. If an article is voted on the most, but receives little or nothing on the talk page, it might not become FA. 1b. If an article receives no attention, and section 1a has to be used, the article with the attention automatically gets FA. 1c. If nobody votes or discusses on anything, FA will be decided by the administrators.

2. Ties 2a. If there is a tie between two or more, the community discusses it here. 2b. If it is still tied in the discussion, then the administrators will decide FA.

Size
In order for an article to be nominated as featured, it must have a certain size. The minimum length of the article is 1,000 KB. The maximum length of the article is 200,000 KB.

Visuals
If an article is to become nominated, it must include an infobox on its topic. The only other required visual is some sort of image; this cannot be a sound or video file, but can be included in the article. Possible other visuals include tables, graphs, charts, etc.
