 * 9) &hellip;have a minimal amount of red links; use common sense (no more then ten)
 * 10) &hellip;have a complete, detailed "History" section, and a "Post mortem" section if the article is about a character that has died.

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) Voters can check the articles prosperective Decreton Lords review for any additional information on the article.
 * 3) Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
 * 4) If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
 * 5) 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.
 * 6) 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.

 * 3) Awesome article. Ike (talkbattles) 15:04, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Same reasons as last week.
 * 2) In desperate need of a spell check, and overall just not FA material IMO. Comapring it to the other organisations/gorvernemnts that have becomes FA's, this falls very short. Also, despite your promises, it still lacks numerous sections, such as economy and a number of others. And on top of all that, some of it is just plain stupid. A lowly aide constructs a Death Star, that's twice the size of the original...IN SECRET! Yeah, it's gonna be pretty easy to hide that. And you didn't even explain how they got plans for it or anything. In fact, it's not even mentioned again in the entire article (not that there's much of that anyway). You've just left out the largest superweapon ever, which could probably have greatly expanded the article. And a few other bits and pieces pop up. The War section should come under History for example, and it says their founding document was the Article of Seccesion. What are they secceding from? The Trade federation, CIS and the CIS Remnant are all gone! And to top it all off, they re-organise and fragment before they're even established.
 * 3) Per Pahvulti, and its not nearly expanded enough. SV undefined
 * 4) Per above. You also need to expand the intro paragraph. - Brandon Rhea 20:40, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) Getting better but not quite there, fix the errors and I will support [[Image:Swerto sig.jpg]]talk to the Swerto

 * I still dont understand why it is not up to your standers as FA ?TroybTalk contribs[[Image:Troyb.jpg|20px]] 13:33, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * While I do not agree with the "just plain stupid part", which in itself was a rather rude way of putting things, Pahvulti basically summed it up. - Brandon Rhea 20:41, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I liked it. General Grham  (Talk to me.) [[Image:Yoda.jpg|25px]] 23:33, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I think it's ALMOST FA-quality, just a little bit more and you'll make it, Troyb! And you shouldn't judge articles just because they are "silly", you have you right to your imagination.

 * Let's not get into that debate again. - Brandon Rhea 21:18, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, let's please not. Reasons are reasons, and valid ones, therefore it's up to the user to improve the article. SV undefined

Oppose

 * 1) Not nearly expanded enough. SV undefined
 * 2) Per above. Pictures are kinda wierd, too.
 * 3) It's good ideas and such, but simply not written good enough. And can't say I really like the pictures. Kaxs
 * 4) Agreed with all of the above. - Brandon Rhea 20:39, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) As Kaxs said. And I could help you with the pictures if you like.  N@M3Le$ I know how to talk! Journal [[Image:Namelesennius.jpg|30px]] Namelesennius(Mysteries of a Distant System: Exile) 20:45, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Still not quite to FA quality, there are still some errors here and there and you still have pictures that are overly large. I'm sorry but until you finish this a little more then I won't support, sorry [[Image:Swerto sig.jpg]]talk to the Swerto 16:38, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Per above.

Support

 * 1) Best one now in nominees so I hope it wins. I did it last week and it had four positive I thought that was enough to put it into the "upcoming FA" category but it wasn't so I'll renominate it. Its been FA before so I think its FA quality, read it, love it, support it... or don't your choice. [[Image:Swerto sig.jpg]]talk to the Swerto

Support

 * 1) Yes. A great article!
 * 2) Love it!TroybTalk contribs[[Image:Troyb.jpg|20px]] 00:30, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) It's a well written article but there are far too many redlinks, just not enough pictures for an article of that length and the intro is FAR too short. There's also a place in there where a quote is awkwardly placed in the middle of a paragraph. So, really, I'm opposing this only for a few technical things that could easily be fixed. There's nothing wrong with the quality of writing because, as I said, it's a well written article. - Brandon Rhea 02:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Per Rhea. Will do a DL review later, but I will state exact reasons why there. SV undefined
