Tardis talk:Feature Article nominations

Match 2011
With the sad new of Nicholas Courtney at the end of February 2011, the article on him became the featured article, and like I said was at the end of February 2011. I feel this article should continue to be the featured article for March, and then we pick up worth put feature article nominations with April. All March nominees and votes should go to July. Is this agreeable, or do people want to go ahead with the March nominees? Mini-mitch\talk 22:07, March 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yep, or we could just push all of the articles down a month, as July has a nomination already, so to keep things fair the March nominations need to go to a month that doesn't currently have any nominations. --Tangerineduel / talk 13:04, March 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've put all nomination from March to June back 1 month. We'll continue as normal from the beginning of April. Mini-mitch\talk 17:05, March 8, 2011 (UTC)

Elisabeth Sladen
With the very sad news of Elisabeth Sladen death. I would like to vote and say we make her article the feature article for May, and have Sarah Jane Smith as the feature article for the rest of April, as a way of remembering her. All votes should be pushed back another month. Mini-mitch\talk 20:21, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Yep I completely agree, as a mark of respect we should make her our featured article. --Revan\Talk 20:22, April 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Can someone else change it? I've no idea how to. Mini-mitch\talk 20:24, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Completely agree. I'll do it.Skittles the hog-- Talk 20:24, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Discussion
I think the nominations would work better if there was more discussion. At the moment it seems to much like anything goes. For example, users would list improvements to get it up to "featured" standard.-- 16:26, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Feature articles for remainder of 2011
Okay, here admins, can set forward there recommendations for articles to be featured for the remainder of the year. So, without further ado, ideas?-- 15:54, August 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * So we decide the articles for the Feature articles while we rewrite the Feature article policy? If we have to decide on articles, I would nominate the following:


 * The Invisible Enemy, since it was the first classic episode and in fact the first ever episode to feature K9.
 * Weevils (or Janet), since they are featured and at some points played a key role throughout the first and second series of Torchwood
 * Justin Richards, for his large collection of published works.
 * Malohkeh, simply cause he's cool. MM/ Want to talk? 16:36, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Just to analyse your suggestions: I don't think The Invisible Enemy is a great article. The image for Weevil needs changing, but beyond that it's good. Justin Richards has barely any content beyond the list of his (rather fantastic) works. Malohkeh and Janet are good articles, if a little typical. Erm...bit too critical?

Here are my suggestions:


 * The Curious Tale of Spring-Heeled Jack - another story page, but at least it's in the comic medium.
 * Inter-Galactic Cat - same as above, but a short story from the annuals.
 * Metebelis III - something a bit different. Might need a bit of polish here and there so would be best later on in the year.

That's it, pick them apart at will.-- 16:57, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
