:Easily. You can delete the hiatus message, and uncomment the feature code. Just change <nowiki>CURRENTWEEK</nowiki> to <nowiki>CURRENTMONTH</nowiki>, and then follow the link to create the small mini-article that will appear on the front page. Fortnightly would be a little more difficult (or impossible). {{User:Buddy13/sig}} 09:32, 27 June 2006 (PDT)

===[[Mom]]===
It's a decent article. It could stand a little expansion, but the pictures work well. Although I might want to show a better contrast with pics of her motherly public face to counterbalance the private personna in the picture that's already there. {{User:Buddy13/sig}}

While it doesn't have images, meaning it can't really be featured, I feel that there should be a note somewhere on the main page about Futurama's return. - [[User:Quolnok|Quolnok]] 20:51, 25 June 2006 (PDT)

:Well, '''Production''' is already a link on the main page, just below where the featured articles should go. However, feel free to add a "News" section or just stick a note somewheres. News was slow in coming when this site was started, so a News section was decided against, but now that something is really coming, it might be worth it to add a News area to the main page... {{User:Buddy13/sig}} 09:32, 27 June 2006 (PDT)

Revision as of 06:23, 30 June 2006

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]].

Guidelines for Featured Articles

Featured articles should meet the following criteria:

  • Must have at least one image
  • Must be at least 500 words
  • Probably other stuff, too

Nominations

Is there a way to modify this feature so that the articles are monthly or fortnightly? I think it would help the feature work better. - Quolnok 20:51, 25 June 2006 (PDT)

Easily. You can delete the hiatus message, and uncomment the feature code. Just change CURRENTWEEK to CURRENTMONTH, and then follow the link to create the small mini-article that will appear on the front page. Fortnightly would be a little more difficult (or impossible).

Okay, the featured articles are ready to kick off again, monthly, in July and continue in August - Quolnok 21:23, 29 June 2006 (PDT)

Philip J. Fry

From what I can tell, there were only three featured articles so far. Fry wasn't one of them, I guess the article wasn't that good then.

Production

While it doesn't have images, meaning it can't really be featured, I feel that there should be a note somewhere on the main page about Futurama's return. - Quolnok 20:51, 25 June 2006 (PDT)

Well, Production is already a link on the main page, just below where the featured articles should go. However, feel free to add a "News" section or just stick a note somewheres. News was slow in coming when this site was started, so a News section was decided against, but now that something is really coming, it might be worth it to add a News area to the main page...

There's now a small section above the featured article - Quolnok 21:23, 29 June 2006 (PDT)

Futurama (video game)

It definately has a lot of info, plus several images.

Xmas Time Is Fear

Purely here to represent the comics. I'd say its probably the best of the comic articles, and a good comic.

I think it's a great idea to feature a Comic article. Some fans of the show don't even know about the comics. Buddy13 FW16.png 09:32, 27 June 2006 (PDT)
If we stick to monthly, it may also be nice to make this a December article. - Quolnok 21:23, 29 June 2006 (PDT)
