Nominations for Articles for Improvement should remain open for at least 7 days, unless there is consensus that improvements have been reached. A nomination older than 7 days with no user feedback may be closed. Nominations that are actively being improved may remain open as long as is necessary to achieve the goal of improvement. An AFI nomination may be closed when participants reach consensus that the article has been improved; this may be reached at any point after the nomination was started.
