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.
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.

Mentorship Request for the Reviewing Process
Hi all! I'm new to this process, and figure I'd get started before the article I made a review pledge on received one. Might as well get the ball rolling and help out in advance. Though I'm not too concerned about the review process itself (though would appreciate some tips on how to precisely judge criteria), I'm having some difficulty with implementing the correct source code to update the talk page of my review article and the nominations page accordingly. Any assistance in that process would be greatly appreciated.
You can find my initial message here. Getting that added to the nominations page and its relevant talk page, as well as fit into the relevant categories would be extremely helpful. All the best, and thanks in advance!

- Hi @CSGinger14, thanks for taking on this review. I think the issues you raise here have been resolved. For future reference, you opened the review at 13:31, and you posted here at 13:41. The reason you beginning the review hadn't shown up on the WP:GAN page when you commented here was because it is added there automatically by ChristieBot, which runs every 20 minutes. You can see it arrive at Talk:Culpeper, Virginia/GA1 at 13:46 in this edit and get added to WP:GAN at 13:52 in this edit.
- Let me know if you need any additional eyes or assistance at the review by commenting here or pinging me there. Rollinginhisgrave (talk | edits) 13:58, 13 January 2026 (UTC)
