Featured articles, for the time being, are currently nominated and voted on by staff members. However, if you would like to assist us in improving nominated or discussed articles, any editor is certainly welcome give us a hand in our wiki's continuing improvement. Thanks!

So far, we have:

September '10 Nominees

*dusts off the page* Whew! Been a while since we were in here. *opens wikiwindows to let in fresh wikiair, uses her wikibroom to clean away the wikicobwebs, and then trips over a wikiottoman as karmic justice for blatent abuse of the prefix "wiki"*.

Let's see...where were we...ah yes...

Keyblade-Blk.png Gummi Ship was indeed the selection for August, my only issue was finding an appropriate image of reasonable quality. Hopefully we will receive blueprint images of the Gummi Ships soon.

It has been a while since we have featured a world article, I think the last one was Traverse Town. I'm still not too sure about featuring a world from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, due to our spoiler policy, but perhaps a world the former games would suffice, maybe even something that could tie into Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep without being spoilerific. Any suggestions?

OPXion4EverIcon.png Regarding world ideas...

Castle Oblivion- Aqua creating Castle Oblivion from the darkened Land of Depature.

Radiant Garden- Meh, it's in KH II and BBS.

Olympus Coliseum- Same reasoning as Radiant Garden.

If it's worlds not pertaining to BBS in anyway, I'm up for anything. The Inexistent proposed the Land of Dragons previously..

I think the Land of Dragons is the most complete of those suggested at this point.

Part of the problem with using the BBS worlds is that they're technically not finished until we get the release here, since I'm sure bits will change, and, as Xion mentioned, the spoiler issues. Besides, Land of Dragons is a nice example of an article for a world that has so far appeared in a single game.

Keyblade-Blk.png Hola, señors y señoritas. I have a bit of news for us that might change our plans. Even though we all know that Room Core should have been the Featured Media for September, it looks like we are going to be putting up some art of the Land of Departure. I'm still hoping that everyone spontaneously changes their vote to the much superior Room Core, but in the event that doesn't happen, we may want to reconsider putting Land of Departure up as the Featured Article. Personally, I'm not sure how good or non-rigged it would look to have our Featured Media and Featured Article correspond with each other. At the same time, it might be nice, since Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep is just around the corner. Hooray!

Anyway, I did a long, drastic cleanup of 100 Acre Wood yesterday that should make it a model article. Plus, it's whimsical. If we find that we need to change our decision for Featured Article, I think this would be the way to go.

Hasta luego, ciao.

Sub-Discussion: Back to General Voting?

Well, we, as a wiki, like to vote. The Mirage Arena is a great example of that, and I have to say Featured Media has exceeded everyone's expectations, methinks.

We've improved in quality overall since we stopped Featured Articles, and even more so since we've re-added them as staff only. I think we have a lot more wiki members who know what quality means and are willing to help and polish something so it's at its best.

Therefore, I would like to propose, in December, (for the January article, natch), we return Featured Articles to the hands of all the editors. I do think we should use the same system as Featured Media (restrained categories), as that has worked very well in producing a wide range of winners, and perhaps borrow and modify a couple of guidelines from FF Wiki's procedures, such as so many nominees before voting starts. If need be, we can re-tool things as we go along to make it work more smoothly, but I think this is a step we should take.

What say you, fellow staffers? Viva la editors! (Don't hit me, TroisNyx. ^_^)

No one commented? For two weeks? @_@ Well, as a newly appointed moderator, I'd like to say bringing voting back in December sounds like a good idea.
