| | '''Weak Support''' - Thus far this is a great article. It needs a bit more work, but only in the areas of Physical Appearance and Personality. You could update your Position Chart, do some reasearch into who took over in a position after you moved on. All in all, nice work.[[User:Alaris|Alaris]] 13:51, 16 September 2008 (EST) |

The featured articles of the wiki are articles that represent the best DJBWiki has to offer. This is not a way to showcase the articles of your favorite characters, spaceships, or the like.
So just what makes a featured article? Well, we've prepared a list just in case someone should ask that, and it is as follows.
An article must…
- …be well written and detailed
- …be unbiased, non-point of view
- …not be the object of any ongoing edit wars
- …not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc)
- …have a succinct proper lead that can be used for the front page featured box
- …have a reasonable amount of red links; use common sense
- …have a complete, detailed biography if it's a character article
- …not have been previously featured
For more information on what makes a featured article, see Wikipedia:What is a featured article.
How to nominate:
- First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
- Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
- Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
- The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
- Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections, it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article".
How to vote:
- Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
- Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
- If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
- As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors.
- Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article".
Also remember to add {{nominated}} at the top of the article you are nominating.
Every month the next article in the queue will be highlighted on the Main Page as featured, marked with the {{featured}} template and removed from the list of nominations. The beginning of the article then appears on the Main Page via the {{featured article}} template. Nominees that are inactive for a month will be eliminated from the nominations list.
Featured article nominations
List an article and leave your signature for the nomination(s) - additional comments beyond support or object (unless you have concrete reasons as to why you object) are not required and will be deleted.

Update: Thank you for the feedback so far. I have completed the additions to this article to help reflect the advice given. I cant add any more history as it's still in development in the upcoming run-on's.
Support -- RevengeX Palpatine 13:44, 19 August 2008 (MDT)
Object - No matter the reasoning, in relation to other character articles previously featured, this one doesn't hold up as well. Perhaps waiting until the character is more fully developed will help--Halcyon 16:34, 31 August 2008 (MDT)
Weak Object - An interesting article for a NPC, but I don't think quite ready to be featured. Once the character is fleshed out, perhaps. I also hate having the CS on the page, it looks bad, but that's my opinion--Aabs 01:07, 1 September 2008 (MDT)
Nominated by: RevengeX Palpatine 15:59, 27 August 2008 (MDT)
Support - Well written, interesting read. Looks good. --Ashura 23:10, 27 August 2008 (GMT)
Support - Over all good to read,put together well,. --Cethgus 00:31, 28 August 2008 (GMT)
Weak Support - It looks good and is a good read but I think it could do with a personality and abilities section. --Kalak 09:39, 28 August 2008 (GMT)
Support - Good read, interesting facts, an overall excellent article. It has my vote! -- Talos Annedu (aka Galen Marek d'Tana)
Weak Object - Not quite as fully detailed as other character articles that have been previously featured. Perhaps a little more attention to expanding the character's history or delving a bit more into it's personality/traits will help.--Halcyon 16:34, 31 August 2008 (MDT)
Weak Object - I'll agree with Halc. History could be expanded more, a bunch of two sentence sections looks bad. There also isn't much other than history. --Aabs 01:07, 1 September 2008 (MDT)
Weak Support - I agree with Kalak, it could use a personality and abilities section. The history could need a bit more beefing up. Timbal 17:37, 13 September 2008 (MDT)
