Wikipedia:Good article mentorship
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Good article mentors provide assistance and feedback to editors who are new to reviewing. If you are interested in reviewing but are not sure where to start, requesting a mentor can make the process easier. To request a mentor, press the button below and follow the instructions.
| Main | Criteria | Instructions | Nominations | FAQ | Discussion | Reassessment | Report |
| Reviewing initiatives | June backlog drive | Mentorship | Review circles | Pledges |
Mentors can:
- Help find an article suitable for a new reviewer to review
- Explain any of the good article criteria and how to assess them
- Check a review to make sure it was done correctly
- Answer any other questions about how to review a good article nomination
Mentors are not expected to complete any part of the review. Mentorship is optional, and you do not have to request a mentor to begin reviewing.

This is a list of users who have volunteered to be good article mentors. If you wish to choose a specific mentor, you can leave a message on one of their talk pages. Remember that not all of them might be active or be able to help at any given time. If you're an experienced reviewer, you can add your name! You do not need to be on this list to answer a request for mentorship. Mentors are encouraged to add the mentorship page to their watchlist.

Hello there, I have just finished my third GA review and would like the assistance of a mentor to help me understand if the issues I have identified are significant enough to fail the article or if it should be put on hold until these are rectified?

- Hi @HaphazardBinBag, looking at the review it appears that this question has been resolved. Are you still after a second pair of eyes? Whonting (talk) 04:20, 8 August 2026 (UTC)
- After all the changes that have been made to the article I think it essentially needs the GA review restarted based off its current state. Untill the new GA review is done I don't think I will need the assistance of a second look but I am always open to feedback, if there is anything you would have done differently I would love to hear it.

I am currently reviewing Boston Bruins (Talk:Boston Bruins/GA1). It's my first review (perhaps ambitious). I've gone through the sections detailed on the talk page and made notes. If there's any feedback on that (like formatting), please let me know. I would also like it to be checked when I am finished with my review. Thanks. Spudem (talk) 20:11, 5 August 2026 (UTC)
