• Cleaned up html and styles in the same way as the lower template (draft 3 afc talk (the gold one)). fredgandt 05:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
  • The above comment should be inside the collapsible archive, but isn't and for some reason won't behave. Also the draft it refers to is broken by the collapsible wrapper, so looks odd. fredgandt 22:59, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

• I think this wording it a bit terse and lacks guidance, but am not sure how far to take it. I know! Be bold. I'm very, very tired. fredgandt

Wow, I love this! :) Might tweak some of the wording, but appearance-wise, it's awesome. Thanks, Fred (and everyone else who's been playing around with these templates!). Maryana (WMF) (talk) 19:24, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Draft 3 {{Afc talk}} Your submission at Articles for creation Congratulations! [[___]], which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created and assessed as Stub-Class. Other editors will now join you in improving this article. You might want to check out this page for tips on what you might improve. Wikipedians aim to raise the standard of all articles to "good" or "featured article" status, but there's no rush. Now that you're familiar with how articles are created, you should feel free to create articles yourself. If you'd like help with that or anything else, please leave a message at the Help desk and multiple editors will try to assist you. If you feel the Articles for Creation process could be improved, please . Thank you for becoming a Wikipedian.   Happy editing! I feel the line "Other editors will now work on improving the article, but so can you!" implies that the user should back off. Perhaps a compromise could be: "Other editors will join you in improving this article now it is fully fledged."? fredgandt 00:51, 2 December 2011 (UTC) I've cleaned up the styles (I mean technically) and fiddled with the structure to keep everything roughly ordered. Different screen sizes and font sizes will change the layout, so there really is not "right" way. The closest we can get is by using padding and margins to even things out and rely on default behaviour as with <p />. I did tweak that one sentence I mentioned above too (won't try to sneak it by you). fredgandt 05:36, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

• Note: I'n not actually happy with Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Assessment FAQ as a landing point, because much is extraneous to the present purpose, and the part that is to the purpose needs to be un-hidden by the reader to become visible. Alternatively, there's Wikipedia:Writing better articles, which, although excellent advice, is probably too detailed for this point in development of a beginning editor. New p, perhaps: WP:Expanding a stub. DGG ( talk ) 22:53, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

I'm hesitant to create yet another policy page, but I think you might be right about this. Actually, WP:Good article criteria is really a nice, succinct guide. Maybe that instead? Maryana (WMF) (talk) 19:44, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
