Good articles are articles that are considered to be of good quality, but are not yet qualified as featured articles. Good articles meet the good article criteria, passing through the good article nomination process successfully. In short, they are written very well, contain factually accurate and verifiable information, are broad in coverage, neutral in point of view, stable, and illustrated, where possible, by relevant images with suitable copyright licenses.

The In the news (ITN) section on the main page serves to direct readers to articles that have been substantially updated to reflect recent or current events of wide interest. ITN supports the central purpose of Wikipedia—making a great encyclopedia.

Creators of significantly large new articles or expanders of older stubs are rewarded for their work through the DYK process, a section on the Main Page (yes, that Main Page) that publicizes new or expanded articles after an informal review. This publicity rewards editors for their contributions and visitors for their interest.
