We currently need five more top priority articles and since there has been lack of activity at the pages related to this issue I am listing the five I would promote now and the next five I would promote. If there is no feedback I will promote the first five I have chosen at the conclusion of this request for feedback. If you want to have input to the process I will count your votes as well and total things before making my selection. You can select up to ten articles. There is an archive of past votes here.
