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 pages.
• 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.
• The article should not be marked with one of the templates in Category:Wiki Maintenance.
• 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.

While Season 6 has more votes, consensus is that we should hold off until it starts. Instead; "The Beast with a Billion Backs" is the featured article for fortnight 13 (and week 24) of 2010. Fortnight 14 starts on the 5th of July. Please cast your vote and if you've found a hidden gem or two, add some new articles to the nomination pool for a possible feature, there's only a few articles left in the nomination pool. Yeah, we missed fortnight 12... - Quolnok 15:53, 13 June 2010 (CEST)

There's a lot non-comic to be featured first, especially since I've never even touched a Futurama comic it's simply not that interesting to me. Aki 10:06, 16 August 2010 (CEST)

I live in Portugal, and they don't sell those here, so I've never touched one either. (I've read "Futurama Returns", but I didn't touch it, so...) I still think the Soldier Boys article is pretty good, though. (And has a nice image too!) San Saber 14:12, 20 December 2010 (CET)

I find this article to be very decent and highly en par with a good Wikipedia article. Unfortunately, it has some bad areas here and there, with sentences and information cluttered together over time, so the sentence structure becomes odd or off when read from a fresh start. I assume that through some tweaking, the article will become even better than good. --Svip^talk 17:57, 28 February 2010 (CET)

Since our current policies only allow for an article to be featured once, I think we would do this article more favours by waiting till the season have actually hit the airwaves. We will have more content by then and we will be able to reflect more accurately on the content. It will no doubt be a much better article when featured if we wait. --Svip^talk 11:14, 14 March 2010 (CET)

I'm voting for this, though it should be featured when it has premiered --I'm Scruffy... the Janitor. 00:14, 24 May 2010 (CEST)

So, how much of the season do we want to have aired? We'll all have 3-4 episodes memorised by fortnight 14. - Quolnok 15:53, 13 June 2010 (CEST)

Seriously, how far will we have to go? I'm really starting to lose interest in the Featured system. Aki 10:08, 16 August 2010 (CEST)

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.

Bending Units

Maybe if there's more info. If someone thinks it can be a candidate, go ahead. — Chris of the Futurama ^{2 [ discuss | contribute ]} 03:48, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
