Star Wars Fanon:Featured articles

The featured articles of the wiki are articles that represent the best the Star Wars Fanon Wiki has to offer.

What makes a featured article or what article should you nominate to feature? To answer that, we've prepared a list just in case someone should ask that, and it is as follows.

An article must...


 * 1) ...be well written and detailed
 * 2) ...be unbiased, non-point of view
 * 3) ...be sourced with all available sources and appearances
 * 4) ...follow the Manual of Style and the Layout Guide
 * 5) ...not be the object of any ongoing edit wars
 * 6) ...not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc)
 * 7) ...have a sufficient proper lead that can be used for the front page featured box
 * 8) ...have a reasonable amount of red links; use common sense
 * 9) ...have a complete, detailed biography if it's a character article

For more information on what makes a featured article, see What is a featured article?.

How to nominate:


 * 1) First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
 * 2) Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
 * 3) Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
 * 4) The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
 * 5) Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 2 or more supports than any other article and no objections, it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article".

How to vote:


 * 1) Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
 * 2) Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
 * 3) If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
 * 4) As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors.
 * 5) Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article".

Also remember to add nominated at the top of the article you are nominating.

In addition, put the number sign, #, next to your name so the votes can be counted. Please sign your posts as well!!

Every Sunday the next article in the queue will be highlighted on the Main Page as featured, marked with the featured template and removed from the list of nominations. The beginning of the article then appears on the Main Page via the featured article template. Nominees that are inactive for a month will be eliminated from the nominations list.

Current Standings
These standings are determined by who has the most votes. This may, however, not be the way the winner is determined. Also, oppositions will lower the amount of votes you have, as long as they're for a good reason. Neutral does nothing.

1. Hei-Ri Devon - It took me time to do this, and I am extremely proud of creating this Fanon for my RPG Character... I believe the article itself is well written, follows the Manual of Style, shows some nice pictures (some of them I've done myself, to maintain Devon as an original character) and has a quite interesting story. I'll let you, Wikifans, decide if it deserves the title of Featured Article. Cheers!

1. The pictures need tidying up, his writing is in great big clumps, they don't seem like they're properly punctuated. Sith Council Sith Campaign 12:50, 2 March 2007 (UTC) 2. Mispelled words (housband?), need better images (larger), better puncuation. If editted, I will change vote. 3. Agree with JAsca Ducato. 4. Strong oppose per Jasca and Jango Fett. I seriously doubt that he has the permission to use Image:Wolf.jpg on that page, since that image was created by FireV a long time ago. I think you should always, always, ask from the author before using his or her fanon. It's clearly enough on the main page aswell. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 23:45, 10 March 2007 (UTC) 5. The writing is in great, big clumps and too difficult to read. There are also some mispelled words. Kessam Prun 01:32, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I've improved it.
 * Do you have permission from Jack Phoenix to use this in your article: [[Image:Veridovich.PNG|thumb|50px]]

 * Hopely now that the whole brother-can't-vote mess has been cleanup I can get this article featured
 * There is a piont in which two pictures pinch a small ammount of text in between them. I suggest putting the picture a paragraph or two below its current point to stop this from happening Swerto 11:05, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Lord Scurge

Oppose

 * 1) Sorry, dude, but it needs a lot of work so I'm going to have to vote no. The writing needs to be improved and you don't have any links to anything else like factions, planets and other people. For example, say I didn't know anything about Star Wars. I might look at this and say "I'd like to know about Nar Shaddaa", "I'd like to know about the Jedi Service Corps." or "I'd like to know about the Exchange". However, there are no links to those things. You can easily link to Wookieepedia. The organization could also be improved a bit. I have faith that this could become an FA. Just keep at it. - Brandon Rhea 23:40, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) It needs links, and to be formatted properly. It's not even categorised. [[Image:DarthAb.gif|Jasca Ducato]] Sith Council Sith Campaign 12:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) I agree with all he above.
 * 4) Dear Lord Scurge, this is exceptional effort. However, some of the vocabulary could be spruced up a bit. Do that, message me, and I'll definately reconsider. =D Cheers, Gho st I nsi de the M ach ine <font color="#808080">''(<font color="#808080">Whisper through the Storm ) (<font color="#808080">My Journeys ) (<font color="#808080">Omens ) 00:52, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

 * 1) I agree, it's one of those "dead end" pages. I can help you with linking if you want me to. I won't vote against your article but I won't support it until it has better quality.
 * 2) He's on a site I am an Admin of, so I offered to help him. He hasn't let me know yet, but if he says I can then I'll let you know if any other help is needed. - Brandon Rhea 00:04, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Very well.
 * just wondering, what is that picture of anger? it looks like someones face with pie all over it and tinted red pinky 23:02, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Put another picture or two and I'll vote for it. - Darth Fury

I added more pictures as well as quotes. pinky 00:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) I'm going to have to say no right now. It's not very detailed, there are no pictures and it could be better written. Keep at it, though. Just because it's not FA quality now doesn't mean it will never be. - Brandon Rhea 14:26, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Per Brandon Rhea. [[Image:DarthAb.gif|Jasca Ducato]] Sith Council Sith Campaign 11:13, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Agreed
 * 4) Just a bit more work, and this could be pretty good, man! Keep it up!

 * 1) Still a little bit too cluttered with images.
 * 2) It needs a longer and more detailed intro and a better databox image. It is also still much to cluttered with images. - Brandon Rhea 22:01, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Way too cluttered with images. [[Image:DarthAb.gif|Jasca Ducato]] Sith Council Sith Campaign 11:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) The images are blinding.
 * 5) too many images and it has a user box on it. idk if that is from vandalism or what but it would be better if it was gotten rid of pinky 23:00, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * Nah, it's not really considerable for FA. Remember, these are going to be put on the Main Page. You need something of more substance, more than one picture in an infobox and, truth told, this article looks more like along the lines of "average" than "featured," or even "good." That is, if you take the median, not the mean or mode of articles. The vast majority of articles on Star Wars Fanon are, sadly, pathetic stubs that indeed do make this look featurable. But there are articles that make this look "average," and frankly, I'd rather feature those first. I'd say that this article should have more work done before it having a possibility to be on the Main Page. --C3PO the Dragon Slayer 6,000,000 forms of communication 03:11, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) Ditto to above. - Brandon Rhea 03:54, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Needs a lot of improvement.
 * Hey, I can definately see the spunk in your writing and also the effort, but it's just a bit too short, a bit too casual for the main page. Keep at it and I'll reconsider. =D CHeers, <font color="#D3D3D3">Gho <font color="#A9A9A9">st I <font color="#808080">nsi <font color="#000000">de the M <font color="#808080">ach <font color="#A9A9A9">ine <font color="#808080">''(<font color="#808080">Whisper through the Storm ) (<font color="#808080">My Journeys ) (<font color="#808080">Omens ) 00:57, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

 * 1) Not as long as Swerto but still deserving. I spent my time revising it already but if you find any spelling or grammer errors just let me know and I'll fix them (I didn't notice any myself, and then Microsoft Word didn't catch any with spellcheck). He's the second character I created. Swerto 11:32, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Not detailed enough for me. If that was to change, however, I would probably vote for it. You'll also want to add in more pictures, as the one just really isn't enough. - Brandon Rhea 21:44, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Needs a bit of lengthening. =D Cheers, <font color="#D3D3D3">Gho <font color="#A9A9A9">st I <font color="#808080">nsi <font color="#000000">de the M <font color="#808080">ach <font color="#A9A9A9">ine <font color="#808080">''(<font color="#808080">Whisper through the Storm ) (<font color="#808080">My Journeys ) (<font color="#808080">Omens ) 00:58, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
