The rules for user nomination are as follows:
*<big>All voters must have '''200 total edits''' (check [[Special:Editcount|here]]).</big>
*After a primary category of article has an article chosen to be the Featured Article, any other articles within this category cannot be nominated again for two months.
*To accurately select an article that editors can review for detail to the very last word, phrasing, and format.
*Articles can never be renominated after being chosen.
*In the event of a tie, the former nominated article shall be featured first, and the latter nominated article shall be featured the following month. All voting restrictions for that month will roll over to the following month.
*On the final day of the month, a staff member will close the voting, and voting for the next month shall begin.
*Please provide reasoning as to why you think an article is fit to be featured--remember, by featuring an article, you are presenting an article that represents the best work of its category. Whatever is nominated should be a model article for others that are similar to it.
**Also try to provide variety in your nomination--our goal is to balance out the "demographic" of articles above, not add more character articles.

So, I guess I'm going to suggest [[Mage's Staff]] again. Same reasons as KSM said last month. {{Uxie/Sig}} 01:10, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

<s>What about [[Mage's Staff]]? We've never featured one of Donald's staves before. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 02:41, 21 February 2015 (UTC)</s>

Now I'm leaning more for [[Xehanort]]. It's a pretty well fleshed out article, anyways. There aren't any problems other than the confusing accounts for both Master Xehanort and Young Xehanort.{{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 18:38, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
#Agreed. Live long and prosper. [[User:Maggosh|mag]][[User talk:Maggosh|gosh]] 18:40, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
#Aye. {{User:Chainoffire/sig}} 18:47, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
#We did the same for Genie when Robin Williams took his life, so this has my support, even it means breaking the rules. {{Uxie/Sig}} 21:34, 27 February 2015 (UTC)


I understand that you want to feature Xehanort, because of Nimoy, but the rules say: "After a primary category of article has an article chosen to be the Featured Article, any other articles within this category cannot be nominated again for two months." We could make an exception for this, of course. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 18:54, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
:The rules, from what I figure, are there mostly to avoid a mass spamming of major character or world articles as featured articles over and over. It's kinda to encourage people to find other things on the wiki rather than elect because it's a major character in the series. In this case, however, I think it's excusable, since it's for entirely different reasons. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 21:44, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
::Really we ought to put in a provision for that. [[User:Maggosh|mag]][[User talk:Maggosh|gosh]] 00:46, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

'''[[Xehanort]]''' wins! {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 19:05, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

==February 2015==
It's been a while since we featured a character...What do you guys think about [[Xemnas]]? {{User:Xion4ever/Sig}} 03:01, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
#Cursed fools! - {{User:EternalNothingnessXIII/Sig}} 03:15, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
#I think Xemnas is apt ^_^ {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 18:29, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
#{{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 15:19, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I was thinking about [[Vanitas]] or [[Xehanort]]. {{User:Master Riku the Bloody/Sig1}} 18:24, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
#I'd lean towards Vanitas myself; Xehanort is too major of a character to get through without enough reading and replaying. '''[[User:Troisnyxetienne|<font color="dodgerblue">Trois</font>]][[User:Troisnyxetienne|<font color="darkslateblue">nyx</font>]]''' 19:24, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

{{KeybladeSpyMaster|time=19:08, 13 December 2014 (UTC)|christmas=For sure now, I think we should put up [[Under the Sea]]. It's been updated to the new standards, it's complete, and it's not the mess it seemed three months ago. This time, I think it's ready.}}
{{Xion4ever|time=20:55, 21 December 2014 (UTC)|texx=Sure, why not?}}
