Changes: Brickipedia:Featured articles

Revision as of 09:07, 15 September 2008

Shortcut: BP:FA

The featured articles of the wiki are articles that represent the best Brickipedia has to offer. This is not a way to showcase the articles of your favorite themes, minifigs, or the like.

Nominations

How to nominate:

First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
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).
Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections (or the objections have been stricken or overridden), it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article".

How to vote:

Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
1. If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved. Please cite which rule your objection falls under! Failure to do so will result in your objection being considered invalid.
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.
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".

I see there is much support for this article. But it is only a list of links. What should be put on the main page? --Bahnpirat 09:07, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
