Guidelines
Selecting an article
There is no formal nomination process for adding a new article to the selected articles collection. Selected articles should highlight the strength and diversity of what the visual arts has to offer. While selections do not necessarily need to be FA or GA status, they certainly should not be stubs.
Suggest an article
Feel free to leave any suggestions for a selected article in this section. Comments are helpful. If you are feeling ambitious, the instructions for adding an entry to the selected article collection are outlined below in the "Adding an article" section. Any questions or disagreements about the appropriateness of an entry should be discussed on the talk page.
