Wikipedia:Featured article candidates
That page works similar to Wikipedia:Votes for deletion, only the other way around: If a page is listed here for a week with no objections, it is added to the Brilliant prose list. If there are objections, they have to be worked out, until a nearly unaninmous consensus is reached.
If you nominate one of your "own" pages (i.e. one to which you have contributed all or a large majority of content), it must be seconded by at least one more person in order to be accepted. Some people may object to self-nominations on principle.

Self-nominations (need to be seconded)

- Looks fine to me. I haven't checked the facts, though. --Eloquence 23:31 24 Jun 2003 (UTC)
