Template:EditingPages This page is for nominating pages for Featured Article status.

To nominate a page, users must tag the page with Template:Nominated Featured Article, and create a sub-section on this page under the heading of Nominations. Users will then discuss and evaluate the page's suitability as a Featured Article. If successful, it will be listed at Sonic News Network:Featured Article and will be recognized on the Main Page! If rejected, the template must be removed from the article in question and the discussion closed.

Guidelines

Articles nominated for Featured Article status should follow these rules:

  1. It must have been written primarily by Sonic News Network users. No articles copied directly from other sites, such as Wikipedia or Mobius Encyclopaedia, may be nominated.
  2. It must be factually correct, with no false information, and it must have sufficient references to verify its accuracy.
  3. It must be at least a few paragraphs in length.
  4. If an article has already been a Featured Article, it cannot be nominated again.

Procedure

  1. Every discussion must stay open for at least three weeks.
  2. At least five users must participate in order for a nomination to succeed.
  3. A positive consensus must be reached in order for a nomination to succeed. No vote weighs more than another.
  4. Nominations must be closed by an administrator.
  5. A Featured Article must stay a Featured Article for at least 30 days. If a new Featured Article is determined before the 30 days are up, then the results of the discussion will be enforced once the 30 days are over.

Zavok

The article is written nicely, there's plenty of pictures to not bore readers, it contains links to many articles, and it's a nice change of pace from the recent entries. Whaddya think? - BlueSpeeder (talk) 05:10, July 10, 2015 (UTC)

  • I would support this, but why we don't check something more mystical, like the Chaos Emeralds or the Master, wouldn't that be more interesting? Luma.dash
    • Voting for this article won't stop either of those articles from being featured. You can start fact-checking and typo-fixing on them if you want to nominate them. Burny!~ your friendly neighborhood pyrosaur 15:09, July 10, 2015 (UTC)
  • Sonamyfan, I hope you do realize that you're supposed to vote based on the quality of the article, not of the game. Burny!~ your friendly neighborhood pyrosaur 14:15, July 10, 2015 (UTC)
  • Any article nominated is of sufficient quality that I also go with what the article about not just the quality of the article, if I find no problems I will give it my support. Amyrunhammer Sonamyfan666 Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere... Amyrunhammer
  • Sonamyfan, your vote literally does not make sense. You're rejecting a good article only because of the game the character originated from. Not only is that biased, but that's also assuming that the article is trash. Either give a valid reason or your vote will be removed for being biased. - BlueSpeeder (talk) 20:01, July 10, 2015 (UTC)
  • No it's not as I said before any article nominated then I believe it is of sufficient quality to be featured. So Instead I look at other things such as what the character/object is from or if we had one just like it for selection. So how is that biased Blue? Featured articles will get people to read more pages about what the featured one is about so rather then let a stain like 06 or Lost World get coverage why not let it go to say something more dersevering like Sonic Underground or Sonic and the Black Knight.

    • "Biased" was probably the wrong word for it. I would probably say you're being "unfair": this article is pretty good in my opinion, and you're belittling it because of the game the character appeared from. I hate to be rude, but that's the worst possible reason you could oppose this nomination. That's like me going below on your Amy nomination and saying "Amy is the worst character in the franchise, she doesn't deserve recognition." - BlueSpeeder (talk) 04:35, July 11, 2015 (UTC)
      • How is that a wrong reason for not wanting the article featured Zavok in of him self a very flat boring character with no reason for doing what he does, and Lost World has the worst concept for a Sonic game. If you wanted to oppose making Amy the featured article for that reason it is a valid complaint as you would think she's not a good representation of the Sonic franchise wouldn't want more people to read her article on the wiki. Making a page the featured article shouldn't be just about the quality but what's it is about. Amyrunhammer Sonamyfan666 Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere... Amyrunhammer
        • Sonamyfan666, what you're saying is basically contradicting. You can't say you're not biased agaisnt Lost World if you said yourself Lost World is a stain to the Sonic franchise? Your vote will not be counted.  Journalistic  18:26, July 11, 2015 (UTC)
        • Read my message and you would know that just picking because of article quality is stupid. Amyrunhammer Sonamyfan666 Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere... Amyrunhammer
  • If there's a vote that has poor reasoning to it, just don't count it. No need to cross it out or remove it. Myself 123 18:48, July 11, 2015 (UTC)

Amy Rose

It's a nice long page with lots or references, and factual information about Amy.
