Finding selected article candidates
Look for an article on the English Wikipedia that is related to Ohio that you think is very good and would be suitable for use as the selected article. This article doesn't necessarily need to be a Wikipedia Featured Article or a Wikipedia Good Article, but these articles are generally preferred for use as the selected article (you can use those links to look them up). For arguments that can be used to suggest nominations, you could be inspired by the Featured Article criteria.

Supporting and objecting

 * If you approve of an article, write "Support" below the reason why this article was nominated, followed by your reasons for supporting it.
 * A nomination is considered a vote in support, so nominators don't need to add another vote to their nominations.
 * If you oppose a nomination, write "Oppose" below the list of supports, followed by the reasons for your objection. Where possible, objections should provide a specific rationale that can be addressed.
 * To withdraw an objection, strike it out (with ) rather than removing it.

Theodore Roosevelt High School (Kent, Ohio)
I figured I may as well nominate this since it was an article I have spent some time on and it's gotten to at least GA status. It's one of just a few high school articles that has even developed that far too. --JonRidinger (talk) 21:25, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
