Infosphere talk:Featured articles

Hey, The Scary Door finally made the cut while I was MIA? Excellent, those were one of my favorite bits from the series and I put a bit of work into getting that article started. Gopher 20:06, 19 April 2007 (PDT)

Quolnok's Picks?
I think Quolnok is the only one keeping this section alive. I wish we had more members to nominate and vote for things, but we're sadly stagnant in that department. Thanks, Quolnok for working on this area when you can. --Buddy 19:37, 22 November 2007 (PST)
 * Yeah, it would be nice to have more nominators and voters. I'm glad we're only doing this monthly. - Quolnok 19:49, 22 November 2007 (PST)

weekly?
anyone reckon we should do this weekly? I think it would be a good idea if we did.--I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 03:17, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm thinking not. I much prefer the fortnightly format, especially given the infrequent nominations (although certainly more than three years ago). In fact, I've actually been considering reducing the frequency again. - Quolnok 03:24, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

new featured article
Why hasn't there been a new featured article in like a month? It's getting kinda boring looking at BWABB all the tme and Season 6 could definitely be there now. --I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 08:12, 16 August 2010 (CEST)
 * sorry if I sound like a prat, Quolnok probably has been going on with Real Life. --I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 08:13, 16 August 2010 (CEST)
 * Okay, this is it, I'm going all Hitler on your asses and add a new featured article. Aki 19:48, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * Finally, a new featured article. You made the right call, Aki. Although I would have preferred the Season 6 article. Well, but it's my own fault. WHY DIDN'T I VOTE?? Fan Futurama 20:10, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * I know, me too, but it wasn't good enough, there were too many "update" and not enough material. If you fix it it can be there next time? :) Aki 20:12, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * The problem with the Season 6 article is that it could be so much better. It's a shame to feature it before it gets to that point.  But one of the prevailing arguments remain that we simply doesn't know the entire season.  We have only seen about half of it. --Sviptalk 20:26, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * Challenge accepted. From now on, I'm going to update the article as much as I can. I really think it's the kind of article that should be on the main page. But I agree with Svip. It should only be featured when all the episodes are aired. Fan Futurama 21:21, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * Awesome. Awesome to the max. Having the article go up there ready and perfect when the time comes is... awesome. Aki 23:07, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * TO THE MAX. Fan Futurama 23:47, 29 August 2010 (CEST)
 * Hi all. Things keep taking my free time, but I'm glad something new was finally put there. I've been trying to get caught up with looking at the new edits, I'm around a week behind, but I should probably consider stopping that now that we're oh so very active. I also wasn't overly thrilled with the quality of the season six article and wanted to hold out on it but also wasn't thrilled by the next option in the list (although it is better now). I'd also been going to implement a defaulting system to shove old features on the main page when I forget to update, but like everything else I just haven't got around to it. Also fortnight 17 ends today, so I've made it 18's feature too. - Quolnok 00:43, 30 August 2010 (CEST)
 * Oh, great. Activity is always nice from everyone, especially such a big contributor as you, but as you say there are several active people keeping the wiki updated and keeping vandalism away, so take any free time you need without worry. Aki 15:17, 30 August 2010 (CEST)

19
As Quolnok pointed out, forthnight 19 is here and we're still pretty low on activity. I voted on A Flight to Remember making it win by 2-0, and choose it as a featured. We really need to get better activity in this field, and prep the one for 20 asap. Aki 11:10, 13 September 2010 (CEST)
