Our success stories

Featured Articles (FAs) are the highest quality articles on Wikipedia. They receive careful vetting from the community and must satisfy rigorous criteria regarding their comprehensiveness, accuracy, neutrality, referencing, and writing quality. Only FAs may appear as "Today's Featured Article" on the Main Page, which has 4 to 7 million page views each day.

Examples of Featured Articles in pharmacology (click "show")

• Caffeine
• Antioxidant
• Anabolic steroid
• Water fluoridation

• Sertraline
• Buproprion
• Treatment of multiple sclerosis

Good Articles (GAs) are vetted less rigorously than Featured Articles and, hence, are typically of lesser quality. Although some GAs are developed further FAs, this is not always appropriate. Independent evaluations suggest that GAs in the sciences are of reliably high quality.
