Infosphere:Featured article nominations

Nominate articles that you think are worthy of being featured on the main page. Please create them below under a level 3 ( ===Level 3=== ) heading.

How do you vote? Edit this page, and put your name under either "Accept" or "Decline" for each article nominated &#8212; You can do that with a sig template, three tildes, or simply Buddy13.

You must nominate an article before creating the feature. Seriously.

Guidelines for Featured Articles
Featured articles should meet the following criteria:
 * Must have at least one image.
 * Must be at least 500 words.
 * This rule may be ignored if the article is on something minor and everything known is described.
 * The article should not yet be on the Featured Articles pages.
 * The article should not still be on the "What's new?" section of the Main Page. Nominations of these pages will be accepted but they won't actually be featured until they leave this listing.
 * The article should not be marked with one of the templates in Category:Wiki Maintenance.
 * Probably other stuff, too

Nominations
The nominations section is for articles that you feel are ready to be featured. If it still needs work, add it to Potential Candidates.

While Season 6 has more votes, consensus is that we should hold off until it starts. Instead; "The Beast with a Billion Backs" is the featured article for fortnight 13 (and week 24) of 2010. Fortnight 14 starts on the 5th of July. Please cast your vote and if you've found a hidden gem or two, add some new articles to the nomination pool for a possible feature, there's only a few articles left in the nomination pool. Yeah, we missed fortnight 12... - Quolnok 15:53, 13 June 2010 (CEST)

Can the decliners of this suggestion please state why so that it may be improved to live up to your standard? I understand that this article's Production section isn't really done, its Reception section is missing and well, it actually lacks a Star Trek section, which it should have; discussing Star Trek from this episode's point of view. --Sviptalk 15:13, 24 June 2010 (CEST)
 * I declined because of the messy trivia section. there is a lengthy discussion on Star Trek in the episode here, so suggest just a link to that section and get rid of all of the Star Trek references on this page. --I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 22:52, 24 June 2010 (CEST)

There's a lot non-comic to be featured first, especially since I've never even touched a Futurama comic it's simply not that interesting to me. Aki 10:06, 16 August 2010 (CEST)

I find this article to be very decent and highly en par with a good Wikipedia article. Unfortunately, it has some bad areas here and there, with sentences and information cluttered together over time, so the sentence structure becomes odd or off when read from a fresh start. I assume that through some tweaking, the article will become even better than good. --Sviptalk 17:57, 28 February 2010 (CET)
 * Since our current policies only allow for an article to be featured once, I think we would do this article more favours by waiting till the season have actually hit the airwaves. We will have more content by then and we will be able to reflect more accurately on the content.  It will no doubt be a much better article when featured if we wait. --Sviptalk 11:14, 14 March 2010 (CET)

I'm voting for this, though it should be featured when it has premiered --I&#39;m Scruffy... the Janitor. 00:14, 24 May 2010 (CEST)
 * So, how much of the season do we want to have aired? We'll all have 3-4 episodes memorised by fortnight 14. - Quolnok 15:53, 13 June 2010 (CEST)
 * Seriously, how far will we have to go? I'm really starting to lose interest in the Featured system. Aki 10:08, 16 August 2010 (CEST)

I checked through the potential candidates and was surprised to find this one down there. It's a great article with many good pictures, trivia and interlinks. To me, this one appears to be the best choice of all nominations, both for being a good article and for being of public interest. Aki 15:33, 30 August 2010 (CEST)

Potential Candidates
The potential candidates section is for articles that you feel should be featured but need a bit more polishing/completeness. If it is probably ready add it to Nominations. Feel free also to move articles in this section to the nominations when you think they're good to go.

Bending Units
Maybe if there's more info. If someone thinks it can be a candidate, go ahead. 03:48, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
