This is the staging and nomination page for the Appalachia Portal Article of the day (Aotd) section.

Nominating for Appalachia DYK

To make a proposal for Appalachia's Aotd, post the article link into this page's talk page. There, a reviewer will approve, request some changes to, or decline your article(s). Once approved, the reviewer will place the article(s) into the staging area where the articlesare finalized and placed in the queue.

Any article can only fill one day's slot at a time. There is no limit to an article's longevity and there is no limit to an article's ability to leave and regain a spot for any reason.

All articles must be appropriately long, well-written, on-topic, and published article. The article should be directly (not tangentially) related to Appalachia and should have had an impact. While we try to line up articles for a day with some significance to their subject, it is the nature of this format that some articles will be placed wherever a spot might exist

Removal of articles should only be done if an interesting article has come along and that one has "had its fun". This is vague, broad, and extremely discretionary by design. Just do what is right in your eyes and it'll get sorted out if someone disagrees.

Anyone can review, anyone can nominate, and any nominator is expected to at least review one for every few nominations.

The current article list is available in the source for Portal:Appalachia/Aotd. Avoid editing the main list unless you are familiar with the guidelines and expectations of P:APPA and only make changes to the list following a consensus on this page.
