The Articles for creation helper script (AFCH) is a Wikipedia gadget designed to help when reviewing Articles for creation article submissions. It is currently the only script officially recognized and supported by WikiProject Articles for creation. In early 2014, the helper script was completely rewritten and redesigned from the ground up, with a number of new features. This rewritten script is now the default; you can read about what changed at /Rewrite. The source is located at MediaWiki:Gadget-afchelper.js.
To install the script, navigate to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets, click on the check box next to "AFC Helper Script", and hit "Save". You should be ready to go!
To launch AFCH, click on More ▼ in the toolbar on an AFC-applicable page and then on the Review (AFCH) link. In the Monobook skin review (afch) appears as an extra tab in the page's toolbar.
Tip: You can also launch AFCH using the keyboard access key 1. For instructions on how to use access keys in your browser, see this table (typically, Mac: Ctrl + Opt + 1; Windows: Alt + Shift + 1).
Extended documentation for the helper script can found on GitHub in the AFCH wiki.

When AFCH is open on a draft or userpage, click the "(preferences)" link, which will open up a menu for customisation:
A number of developers have contributed to make AFCH a reality. The current rewrite was completed by Theopolisme, with subsequent maintenance by Enterprisey.
