The Deletion to Quality Award (or WP:DQUAL deletion debate to good article (GA) or featured article (FA) status (and featured list ). The award has two primary goals:
to recognize editors who improve articles to good article (GA) or featured article (FA) status–featured list (FL) is also included;
to encourage all Wikipedians to engage in quality-improvement. The award is inspired by the Wikipedia:Million Award , the Wikipedia:Article Rescue Squadron , and the Wikipedia:WikiProject Quality Article Improvement .
