Star Wars Fanon:Featured articles/Nominations

This is the voting and review page for featured article nominations. Featured articles are articles on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki that represent the best that the wiki has to offer in the way of quality above that of general standards. Out of on this wiki, less than sixty are currently of featured status. Articles that no longer meet the criteria can and will be proposed for improvement or removal by the Council of Seers, the nine member featured article and good article review board.

In order for an article to become featured, it must meet a set of requirements including, but not limited to, being of substantial length and detail while covering all possible encyclopedic angles. After it is nominated on this page, members of the Council of Seers and users will then review and vote on it to determine whether it is of featured article quality.

Nomination
In order to be considered for featured article status, an article must meet the featured article requirements written and determined by the community of the Star Wars Fanon Wiki. If an author then nominates their article for featured status, the Nominated template will be placed at the top of the nomination. Please nominate articles using the following format:


 * === Article name ===
 * Objections and discussion – (0 Council of Seers/0 users/0 total)

Using this format, only votes of approval will be placed on the featured article nominations page. All objections and comments will be placed onto the Council of Seers namespace page.

Voting
Both the Council of Seers and general users may vote on featured article nominations. In order to vote, however, they must have the one hundred (100) mainspace/article edits required by the voting policy. Both Seers and voting users may review by adding comments, critique and feedback on the article, and they will then vote on whether or not the article is of featured article quality. Once at least five (5) of the nine (9) members of the Council of Seers and at least five (5) other users, an article will become featured. This means that an article needs at least (10) votes, five (5) of which must be from Seers. The other five (5) can be from any other member, Seer or otherwise. Seer votes are marked with the template.

If an article is nominated that is clearly not of featured article quality, the Council of Seers may reject its nomination. If an article is rejected, it will be added to the list of rejected nominations, and it may not again be nominated until one week later, giving it ample time to fix a rejected article. However, other Seers or community members hold the right to object to a rejected nominee, although only a consensus or vote may overturn the decision of the rejection.

Alternatively, the Seers may change a featured article nominee into a good article nominee instead, or vice-a-versa. However, if an author prefers to instead keep his/her article a good or featured nominee, he/she may do so and reject the change. This may not occur, though, if the article is being rejected without objections.

Approved articles
If an article is voted as a featured article by the community and the Council of Seers, it will be added to the list of featured articles, the upcoming article queue, and to the history of featured articles. The Council of Seers namespace review page will be archived on the main Council of Seers page as well, and a star indicating that the article is featured will be placed in the era icons field on the new featured article.

 * 1) I did alot of work on this, and I feel it is at least up to standard for GA :). I would also like peoples opinions on the new article and feel it could be a jump start for an eventual return if successful. Darth Abeonis Sith Council Sith Campaign 01:46, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) Having read both the named article and the requirements for a good article numerous times, I think that this is a very well written article and strongly deserves GA status, and possibly even FA. I would very much like to see this as a GA soon, and later, featured on the main page. It has my vote. 19:08, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) *FYI, because it's already been a featured article in the past, it won't be shown on the main page as a featured article. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 01:21, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Phydah Forest apparition
Objections and discussion – (6 Seers/3 users/9 total)


 * 1) We need FAs on the main page, hence this vote. If we didn't have the shortage of FAs then I probably would've had to give it some thought as to whether I would vote or let other Seers vote instead, but I guess I'm not allowed to think. Bias FTW. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) (contribs) 20:40, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) "[The] Starkiller then addressed the Seers and the crowds, 'I find this apparition not guilty [of anything].'" In all seriousness, though, this is a most unusual topic for a Featured Article, but as indirectly stated above, I find no direct fault with this entity. To be honest (and I say that because usually I lie about things, so I need to clarify that here), I believe that the reasons for Brandon's reluctance are not entirely illogical or unfounded (especially in regards to the implications of length requirements), and I myself therefore would not personally categorize them as bias. -MPK (MPK's Talk Page)|undefined 23:33, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) *Two things; one, for the record, I asked for objections and was given none on my colleague's own accord. Two, I agree this may be unorthodox, hence why I ask you all to review it and scrutinize it in accordance to our [FA] rules. –Victor  [[Image:Redstarbird.svg|15px]] ( talk page ) 05:27, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
