Forum:Good Articles and Featured Articles

Hey, everyone! It's great to be back on the wiki. While I was gone, however, I have been wondering something.

Why is it that an article can be a good article and a featured article at the same time? If it is featured, why does it also need to be "good"? Wookieepedia does not require an FAN to be a good article, and I agree. I believe that if a user believes their article is of enough quality, they should be allowed to go directly to the FAN page and nominate it. I also believe that, when an article becomes featured, its Good Article status should be removed, as it doesn't need to be both.

Vic also said that he agrees, and that he was going to do something soon, but I decided to just do it now. First, I believe we should have a vote to see whether or not users believe that the system needs to be changed. If the majority agrees, we can move on to the issue of what needs to be done.
