Restoring older Featured articles to standard: 2Q 2022 summary

WP:URFA/2020 is a systematic approach to reviewing very old (VO) and old (O) featured articles (FAs) to ensure they still meet the FA standards.

Progress

Monthly progress is recorded at this page. Since URFA/2020's launch, with 4,526 FAs needing a review:

280 FAs were Delisted at FAR (255 VO and 25 O).
202 FAs were deemed Satisfactory or declared "Kept" at FAR (133 VO and 69 O).
FAs needing review were reduced from 77% of total FAs to 66%, with 89% of articles listed at URFA/2020 needing reviews.

URFA/2020 reached a milestone when there were fewer than 100 articles promoted from 2004–2006 that needed reviews. Thank you to all the editors who helped with this task. The group is focusing our efforts into finishing those years by the end of the year, and would appreciate it if reviewers could evaluate these articles.

How to help

If we continued this quarter's trend, it would take more than ten years to review the remaining FAs, which is why we need your help! Here are some ways you can participate:

Review "your" articles: Did you nominate a featured article between 2004 and 2015 that you have continuously maintained? Check these articles, update as needed, and mark them as 'Satisfactory' at URFA/2020. If they no longer meet the FA standards, please begin the FAR process by posting your concerns on the article's talk page.
Fix an existing featured article: Choose an article at URFA/2020 or FAR and bring it back to FA standards. Enlist the help of the original nominator, frequent FA reviewers, WikiProjects listed on the talk page, or editors that have written similar topics. When the article returns to FA standards, please mark it as 'Satisfactory' at URFA/2020 or note your progress in the article's FAR.
Review and nominate an article to FAR that has been 'noticed' of a FAR needed but issues raised on talk have not been addressed.
