Portal:Chess/Selected article list

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page gives a list of the Selected Articles that are automatically shown on the "Selected article" section of the Portal:Chess. These articles should be at least B-class. As this page will probably not be watched regularly, please raise your questions to the WP:WikiProject Chess.

The list is weighted so that the articles with the best quality are shown more often, i.e. :

  • articles rated B-class have at most 1 occurence in the list
  • articles rated GA-class have 2 occurences in the list
  • articles rated A-class have 4 occurences in the list
  • articles rated FA-class have 8 occurences in the list

The list of articles to be shown is organised by week, from 1 to 53. If you want to include an article, please update one of the subpages listed below. The article for week 53 should be equal to the article for week 52 because week 53 is generally shorter than others.

[edit] How to add an article

If you believe a given chess-related article is worth being added to this list in order to be shown on the Portal:Chess, follow the following steps:

  1. Make sure the new article is of enough quality, at least B-class.
  2. Create a new subpage named on the example "Portal:Chess/Selected article/Introduction/NAME_OF_THE_NEW_ARTICLE"
  3. Create an appropriate summary of the new article in this new subpage. This is the summary that will appear on the Portal:Chess. Usually you can just copy/paste the Lead of the new article.
  4. Add a link to the new article at the end of the new subpage, on the example "Read more about NAME_OF_THE_NEW_ARTICLE..."
  5. Choose an appropriate week in which you want to delist a former article, to be replaced by the new article. Please choose the ones with the lowest quality first.
  6. Create a link to your new subpage by changing the appropriate week. For example, if you want that your article appears in the week 27, go in the subpage "Portal:Chess/Selected article/27" and change the existing transclusion by your new subpage.
  7. Go to the Talk page of the new article, edit the "Template:WikiProject Chess" and place the instruction "portal=yes". This should add a sentence in the template indicating that the article is a Selected article for Portal:Chess.
