Wikipedia:Requested articles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is Wikipedia's page for requested articles. If you want to request a new article, this is the right place to start. Alternatively, you may be looking for Wikipedia:Articles for creation.
- Please do not add new requests to this page. Instead, read the following:
This page contains many topic and sub-topic headings. Find the heading in which your request fits and click on that link, taking you to another page with names of requested articles arranged into sub-topics. Find the sub-topic in which your request best fits and click on the edit link next to the heading. In the resulting edit box, add the name of the article you would like to request. You may also want to add a note to make it clear what it is you're requesting if it's not obvious from the name alone.
If your request could fit into more than one topic heading, or you're not sure which heading to use, just pick one and put it there. However, placing your request into an appropriate correct topic area improves the chances of an interested editor seeing your request and acting upon it.
- For Wikipedia editors
Your help is needed to create these articles, and fill them with informative content. Please do not remove legitimate articles which have already been created. Please tag short articles as stubs.
