This one, well it is a perfect example of our including just about everything within our scope. It is the kind of article that people don't expect to find, but like seeing. I'm also thinking we could switch to fortnightly at some point (which could allow a decreased article length, though not quality; there's nothing to add for this pair). - [[User:Quolnok|Quolnok]] 07:02, 27 July 2008 (CEST) | |||

| Featured Article Archives |
|---|
| Nominate new articles |
| Existing archives (newest first): |
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
- This rule may be ignored if the article is on something minor and everything known is described.
- 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.
Our September feature is Democratic Order of Planets. While there's a new batch of nominations from me, I'd like others to nominate (and vote) I'm fairly sure we'll switch to fortnightly (two week) features in October so we'll need more input. - Quolnok 08:03, 23 August 2008 (BST)

Nominated on 9 January 2008
It's not a well known area of the Futurama universe, but it is an important one for fans of Leela or Zapp Brannigan's, as it was the location of their first (and only) coupling.

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.
The Infosphere
The article's too short.
