Infosphere:Featured article nominations

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 &#8212; You can do that with a sig template, three tildes, or simply 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
 * The article should not still be on the "What's new?" section of the Main Page. Nominations of these pages will be accepted but they won't actually be featured until they leave this listing.
 * 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.

For fortnight 16, our featured article will be Nibbler's shadow. Fortnight 17 runs from the 10th to the 23rd of August. Please nominate some new articles for a possible feature, and vote on existing nominations to make them appear on the main page sooner, or never appear there. - Quolnok 04:50, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I understand Star Trek, but this page is not Futurama enough. - Chris of the Futurama2 14:33, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * how isn't this any more Futurama than Star Trek is? It's references to the show Futurama isn't it? And it has the most references i've seen.--I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 07:50, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, we certainly can't have all the references in a few sentances. And there's no perfect picture to use. 03:43, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, as this shows, it doesn't say every single reference to Star Wars ever, and the picture it uses isn't even the main picture. It can use any picture from the article. I'm sure Quolnok would choose an appropriate one.--I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 04:52, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright. I concur. 05:05, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * In case you were wondering, I think the best image would be the Duck Dodgers (Looney Tunes) image, if it were higher quality. Second choice is probably the shot from Homestar Runner. If I didn't suspect we'd eventually feature The Simpsons I might suggest one of those images. - Quolnok 05:14, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * or maybe the action comics one or family guy? anyway thanks for the vote chris! --I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 05:49, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * My pleasure. &mdash; 17:37, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

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.

Maybe if there's more info. If someone thinks it can be a candidate, go ahead. 03:48, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

The Simpsons
the tables look a bit messy, i might fix them up. also we need some more futurama/simpsons crew on it. and some more pictures on it, anyone want to screenshot or scan? that would be awesome. --I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 21:55, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
