Close

In the shorter(!) term:

• Bring all the element articles to GA-class or above (turn the "Periodic Table by Quality" completely dark green and blue.) (104/124 = 83.9% as of August 2023)

Goals

and in the longer(!) term:

• Bring all element articles to FA standard (turn the "Periodic Table by Quality" completely dark blue.) (22/124 = 17.7% as of August 2023)

In each case, the important supporting articles should be understood as included. However, we understand that some topics are either innately ill-defined or have too little known to ever develop to GA/FA.
