This is a really good idea, but needs a prominent link from somewhere so that people check it. It is not enough to tell editors to put it on their Watch list, and besides, we want authors to put suggested articles here, don't we? Martin Baldwin-Edwards 23:41, 4 January 2008 (CST)

I agree. I was holding off on publicizing it until I got some feedback from the executive committee mailing list, which has now started to roll in. I'll make the necessary posts to the forums and changes to the wiki in the morning. --Joe Quick 03:09, 5 January 2008 (CST)
Wherever it ends up tomorrow, in the longer run, this page is a perfect candidate for use with a certain extension that places a new toolbox on the left that displays only to those with contributor rights status. Stephen Ewen 03:41, 5 January 2008 (CST)

I'm all in favor of this page, but I want to caution ya'll as I cautioned Joe that we intend to re-engineer the approval process... --Larry Sanger 09:25, 5 January 2008 (CST)

There are some on here which are clearly not ready for approval whatsoever, including a stub. --Robert W King 15:34, 6 January 2008 (CST)

Yes, I noticed that. Should we create a "manager" position for someone who is empowered to remove articles from the list? Editors from the relevant workgroups are already allowed to do so, but I don't think any old person should be allowed to take one down. --Joe Quick 00:07, 7 January 2008 (CST)
