| The current WikiProject Palaeontology collaboration article is Acamptonectes (Discussion). Feel free to cast your vote for the next article. |
The Palaeontology collaboration is a coordinated effort to improve Wikipedia's palaeontology-related content. All Wikipedians, regardless of their level of expertise on the subject, are welcome to contribute. Contributors are not required to have prior expertise in article writing, nor detailed knowledge about the formal requirements a high-class article has to fulfill. Aside from the main benefit of creating better dinosaur articles on Wikipedia, this initiative will hopefully a) Attract new editors to work on the Project; b) Improve the writing skills of existing editors; and c) Demonstrate the value of collaboration on Wikipedia. The goal of each individual collaboration is to bring the nominee to Good Article, and, ideally, to Featured Article status.
It was originally activated in June 2019, as a complement to the long-running Dinosaur collaboration, and with the main objective to introduce less experienced editors into article writing.
Any user may nominate an article to be collaborated upon. Nominees should:

If you think an article is good enough to be a Featured Article Candidate, feel free to nominate it. However, it is recommended that you have the article peer reviewed first. Peer reviewed articles are generally more polished and are often more likely to receive votes of support on the FAC page. If you would like to discuss a particular article before sending it to be reviewed, bring it up on the talk page of the article in question, of this page, or the WikiProject Palaeontology talk page. If you do send an article for peer review or to the FAC page, please let us know by adding it to the appropriate list below so that we can support it!
In terms of criteria consider proximity to FAC candicacy in terms of work required + personal preference + global importance WRT other dinos or FA list and wikipedia in general, in whatever ratios you wish...
