This forum page will be used to nominate and vote on Featured Articles.

Featured Articles will be randomly chosen from the full list to be displayed for anyone who visits the main page over the course of one minute at a time.

To earn the right to be listed, an article must obtain the following standards:

  • Be at least 2000 bytes in length
  • Uses excellent spelling and grammar
  • Has existed on this wiki for at least two weeks
  • Has at least one image, preferably more
  • Has at least three links to other articles, preferably more
  • Is in at least one category, preferably more
  • Subject must be about the official franchise (no mods)
  • Subject must be unique (e.g. Lords are many, what makes one so special?)
  • Must be a standard article (no templates, blogs, files, etc.)
  • Cannot contain first-person perspectives or opinions

If you think an article is outstanding, but fails to meet one or more of the requirements, be bold, edit it and make it better, then nominate it.

Once the above criteria are met, the article may be nominated below. After nomination, it will need to be reviewed by the community for a minimum of one week, during which time it may be voted up or down. If the article wins a 2/3 majority vote, it may be added to the Featured Article list. An article must receive at least one "Yes" vote in addition to the nomination to be featured.

Anonymous users are not permitted to make a nomination, however they will be allowed to cast a vote. All votes are equal.

To vote, type either {{+}} to vote "Yes" or {{-}} to vote "No", then sign your vote by adding four tildes (~~~~) at the end. If you wish, you may include a comment instead of, or as well as, your vote.



To nominate an article, simply follow the basic structure shown in the example below:

Shields[]

Yes Nominating. After much work on this article, there is little left to be improved upon. ◄► Tephra ◄► 23:04, February 23, 2012 (UTC)

Yes Yes, felt like it needed some touch up, but looks better, still needs sub articles for the first two shields in list. Madned 22:21, June 8, 2012 (UTC)

I suppose this is kind of overdue, but finally decided to add shields to the list as we really need more in the rotation.

Companions[]

Yes Nominating. With graphs, charts, and lists, as well as being about one of the most important features of any army, it is time to recognize the companion. ◄► Tephra ◄► 23:04, February 23, 2012 (UTC)

Recruitment[]

Yes Nominating. Listing of recruitment methods and basic analysis of advantages and disadvantages. Only one image, but good use of colors to break up what could be a wall of text. The table at the end could probably use more work though. Madned 22:03, June 8, 2012 (UTC) Italic text
