==Intro==

The integrity of [[WP:GA|Wikipedia's Good articles]] requires that all articles tagged and listed as Good articles meet the [[WP:WIAGA|criteria]]. The aim of this project is to "sweep" through the current good articles to check that they meet the criteria. To participate, pick a sub-category at [[WP:GA]] and review the articles; take appropriate action, as described below, and mark the [[WP:GAPQ/SL|sweeps list]] when reviews of the sub-category have been completed. Editor's contributions can be recorded [[WP:GAPQ/SR|here]].

For this initial sweep, ''all'' Good articles [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Good_articles&oldid=153815416 listed before 26 August 2007] need to be reviewed against the [[WP:WIAGA|GA criteria]].

#Choose articles from the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps worklist|full list of articles left to review]]'''. Before reviewing double-check on the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps/Running total|running total]]''' page if has already been reviewed or is currently on hold (also view the article's talk page to see if it already has been delisted, has become an FA, etc.).
