The peer review department of the France WikiProject conducts peer review of articles on request. The primary objective is to encourage better articles by having contributors who may not have worked on articles to examine them and provide ideas for further improvement.

The peer review process is highly flexible and can deal with articles of any quality; however, requesting reviews on very short articles may not be productive, as there is little for readers to comment on.

All reviews are conducted by fellow editors—usually members of the France WikiProject. While there is a general intent to expand this process to allow for review by subject experts, the preparations for this are not yet complete.

[edit] Instructions

[edit] Requesting a review

1. Add peer-review=yes to the {{WikiProject France}} project banner at the top of the article's talk page.
2. From there, click on the "request has been made" link that appears in the template. This will open a page to discuss the review of your article.
3. Place === [[Name of nominated article]] === at the top.
4. Below it, write your reason for nominating the article and sign by using four tildes (~~~~).
5. Add {{Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Peer review/Name of nominated article}} at the top of the list of requests on this page.

[edit] Responding to a request

Everyone is encouraged to comment on any request listed here. To comment on an article, please add a new section (using ==== [[User:Your name|Your name]] ====) for your comments, in order to keep multiple responses legible.

[edit] Archiving

Reviews should be archived after they have been inactive for some time, or when the article is nominated as a featured article candidate. To archive a review:

1. Replace peer-review=yes with old-peer-review=yes in the {{WikiProject France}} project banner template at the top of the article's talk page
2. Move {{Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Peer review/Name of nominated article}} from this page to the current archive page.

[edit] Chemin de Fer des Côtes-du-Nord

The corresponding article on French Wikipedia has Featured Article status. I've created the English article borrowing heavily from that article, but also adding other material and a line diagram (French articles lack these). I'd like to get this to GA status initially, and maybe also to FA in the longer term. Mjroots (talk) 21:05, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Considering the size of the network, a line diagram ruins the article. Why not go for a clickable map instead of a vertical diagram which hogs the entire right hand side of the article. Look at how clearer it is when it is hidden. Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons 14:37, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
