Moved Jac down a week to buy more time. -- Kaine Mandaala 02:25, 1 November 2006 (Mountain Standard Time)

Shouldn't we make sure articles meet Featured Article quality first and only then add them to the FA queue? -- Reblet 04:27, 15 January 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

That would make a certain amount of sense, yes. Vladimir 11:24, 15 January 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

I'm sorry ... who is nominating these "featured" articles? Firefox's article is nothing more than a glorified stub and a whole section or two of history is missing from Sarin's entry (although it is coming along rather nicely). A new system needs to be implemented. Vladimir 18:05, 1 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

... Kir Katarn's wiki entry is indeed "featured" worthy. Didn't want to be totally negative. Vladimir 18:49, 1 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

Firefox' is waiting for updates, and continously pushed down until it is full enough, like what happened to Jac's.--Korras 22:31, 1 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

Can anyone be featured or is it an Elitist section only? Ylith Romanae 07:43, 2 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

It is my opinion that Firefox and Sarin be removed from the Upcoming Featured Article List. Prominant members of the Brotherhood they may be, but that doesn't mean anything in terms of having their Wiki pages featured for the community. Featured Articles highlight the best pages of the community, not the members themselves. Vladimir 08:31, 2 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

Vlad - Calm down. FF and Sarin had been added because no one else was adding anything. As Korras said, they'll be shoved down the list until they are ready. For a while, articles like those WERE the best ones. For SIX MONTHS I've been saying people need to take initiative in the Wiki (other than the staff), and yet there is minimal effort. If you have better suggestions, start talking. Otherwise, get to editing something worthy.

Ylith - Yes anyone/thing can be nominated. Great looking/finished articles are much better than stubs. --

Last time I checked, House Galeres was not an elitist House, though I'm sure they pride themselves on being an integral part of Clan Arcona. Glaeres is the featured article of the week for January 28, 2007. --Tron 12:47, 2 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

What about Clan Scholae Palatinae? We recently updated our history documents and that's on there now. It seems pretty complete to me. -- RevengeX Palpatine 17:51, 2 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)

  • CSP's wiki page isn't bad, but it could use some more images to break up the large amounts of text. After that I think it would be Featured Article worthy. Vladimir 19:07, 2 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)


Question

So...how does anyone nominate an article to be featured? Ylith Romanae 13:36, 3 February 2007 (Mountain Standard Time)
