Within, the prominence of a topic is the inclusion criterion based on whether or not the subject matches the encyclopedia's character to be the subject of a article. The subject of the article must be "prominent", or "deserve attention". This concept is distinct from "reputable", "important", or "popular", although there may be a correlation with these characteristics. The topic is considered prominent enough to deserve an article on it, if it satisfies the general guidelines for prominence below, or if it meets the most generally accepted specific standards for The topics are listed in the right panel. However, it should be noted that while some of the current articles do not annotate from a reliable secondary source, it does not necessarily mean that they do not stand out.

In general, a topic or an item needs to meet the inclusion criteria (called prominence) and the source of information to appear on. Please see the prominence criteria for each specific category in the upper right panel.

These guidelines pertain to the relevance of the "topic" of the article and are not directly limited in the content of the article.

 * Source is defined on is secondary sources, providing evidence objectively best for the highlights. The number and nature of the source can be trusted depends much on the depth of the messenger and quality of the source. In general, the sources more diverse, the more easily accepted.
 * Reliable means that the source needs to have integrity in editor to allow assessment of striking a verifiable, pursuant to indications on the source can be trusted. Sources may include works already published in any form and by any means. The ability to have the secondary sources say about the topic is a way proven good for the highlights.
 * Independent of the subject means not to the works of people related to the topic created, including (but not limited to): materials for self-promotion, advertising, documentation of subject self-publication, autobiography, press releases, etcv.

Can say, reported significantly higher levels mention a way through the speakers normally, but lower than a work dedicated to mention the subject.
 * Be considered means that the reported significant in reliable sources only new make an assumption, rather than the guarantee, about the highlights. The editors can reach a consensus that although a topic satisfying these criteria, it is still not suitable to put on. For example, it may be in violation to What is not in.

A topic that the majority agree that satisfying this criterion is often remarkable, and satisfying one of several criteria to be able to have articles in the independent encyclopedia. The content and facts are verifiable, that is not the source of independent support diversity, may be more appropriate if it is put on in another article.

is not news source: the emergence of news about an event or a thread separately from a short-lived is not enough to make up evidence about the highlights. Project Wikinews of Wikimedia would be the more appropriate place to post the news today.

The article does not satisfy the instructions on the featured
Although the article should explain about the highlights of the theme are mentioned, and the article on topic does not satisfy this criterion will usually be deleted, the key here is don't just look to the article has proved to be the highlight or not, that need to review that topic itself it was featured or not. When discussing whether to delete or mix a article because it does not sufficiently highlight discussions that should focus not only on the article was stated to be the highlight of the thread yet, but also need to focus both on the capacity stated is the highlight there. If putting information about the topic in a significant way in the independent sources are can be found, then deletion with the reason for the lack of highlights is not appropriate unless there has been people trying to find the source of that which is not seen. For the posts of striking not clear, delete should be the ultimate solution.
