Nookipedia:Featured articles

Nookipedia has a system in place to recognize some of the best articles ever created.

A list of all articles that have been featured can be found here. You can recognize featured articles by the featured badge that appears to the right of the article title, and above the article content.

The random feature article system is not dependent on the Featured Article status and is done manually. If you notice a flaw in the system or want to make a suggestion, stick it on a talk page of an active bureaucrat.

Only staff members can award the featured badge to an article, but members may nominate articles to be featured by sending a private message to an active administrator, preferably Jake, on the forums. An official method of recommending featured articles is currently in development, below.

Featured articles are top-quality articles presented in the main page. They are chosen by our editors. If an article meets or exceeds Nookipedia's featured article quality standards, it can be nominated to be featured. Here are the standards articles must meed or exceed to be considered featured.

Nomination process
As long as editors are autoconfirmed, they can nominate articles to be featured by submitting a nomination in the section below. The voting process works similarly to voting on featured images; registered users may use the templates above to vote or make comments. Once they have voted, they must sign their comments with ~.

Nominations will be held open for at least a week for users to vote - at the end of the voting period, a Administrator, Bureaucrat, or Director will determine the result and close the vote, and will feature the article if the nomination passes. Votes that are inadequately supported or irrelevant may not be included for the sake of consensus.

Once the article is featured, a feature badge is placed on the top of the article.

Articles can also be removed from their featured status if there is a major flaw or if the article does not maintain changing standards. Staff members also reserve the right to remove any nominations that are made in bad faith or poorly justified.
