The objective of WP:FAR is to review articles that are currently featured articles, and whether they should retain the status. The objective is to identify defiencies, and ideally the article will be brought to meet current standards, otherwise they will be removed.
The vast majority articles are sent to FAR not because they have declined in quality but because of the rise in the FA standards. Many articles that passed in 2006 would not pass current GA standards in their 2006-FA state. Most of the articles that are nominated at FAR were usually promoted 2–4 years before the FAR. In many articles little work is done after the original promotion to keep pace with rising standards, i.e., most people tend to not improve the article unless threatened with the confiscation of their star.
