While I'd have liked to put the act breaks in first, the article for [[Bender's Big Score]] has made the cut for [[Infosphere:Featured article for March, 2008|March's feature]] to coincide with the Australian release (technically), anything could be featured next. What do you think it should be? If you add a new nomination it may be featured straight away. Nominate and vote. - [[User:Quolnok|Quolnok]] 04:11, 20 February 2008 (PST)

I think we should nominate [[The Sting]]. It is a good episode and was nominated for awards many times. --[[User:Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender Bending Rodr&iacute;guez]] 18:49, 25 November 2006 (PST)

:I'd really like to see at least two pics in an episode article, given their length, before voting it for featured article. At one point I was advocating at least three, one for each major act, but if we start adding infoboxes then that wouldn't necessarily make sense, but I'd still like to see a second, I think. Unless buddy objects to the bandwidth usage, I think we should try to be fairly media-rich. [[User:Gopher|Gopher]] 20:01, 19 April 2007 (PDT)

Revision as of 07:00, 22 March 2008

Nominate articles that you think are worthy of being featured on the main page. Please create them below under a level 3 (===Level 3===) heading.

How do you vote? Edit this page, and put your name under either "Accept" or "Decline" for each article nominated — You can do that with a sig template, three tildes (~~~), or simply [[User:Buddy13|Buddy13]].

You must nominate an article before creating the feature. Seriously.

Guidelines for Featured Articles

Featured articles should meet the following criteria:

  • Must have at least one image
  • Must be at least 500 words
  • The article should not yet be on the Featured Articles page
  • Probably other stuff, too

Nominations

The nominations section is for articles that you feel are ready to be featured. If it still needs work, add it to Potential Candidates.

In April, our feature is going to be Mars University (place). Anything could be featured next, votes are tied. What do you think it should be? If you add a new nomination it may be featured straight away. Nominate and vote. - Quolnok 22:00, 21 March 2008 (PDT)

Potential Candidates

The potential candidates section is for articles that you feel should be featured but need a bit more polishing/completeness. If it is probably ready add it to Nominations. Feel free also to move articles in this section to the nominations when you think they're good to go.

Sewer Mutants

If character info and quotes are filled in for all the characters, and a few other minor and one-timers are added (like the one Leela raced with in Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles), it could make a good article. It's already very picture-rich, and with a little more humor value it could be a very good page.

Yes, that is a good article. User:Bender Bending Rodríguez/sig

Religion

Still needs a little bit of fleshing out. - Quolnok 02:54, 16 July 2006 (PDT)

Looks to be more of an index now, unlikely to happen. - Quolnok 04:57, 22 January 2008 (PST)

The Infosphere

The article's too short. The centered image on the top is a little non-standard.
