I think for this week, we should do [[The King of Town DVD]], one of the ''earliest'' big toons on the entire site! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:48, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

I think for this week, we should have [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 14.2]], in which one of the messages, from [[Strong Sad]], is on April Fools' Day pranks. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:59, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

This is a placeholder topic for 5-year redirects.  Due to overall decreased activity, FAs are now being reused more often. The common practice has become to redirect to the FA exactly 5 years prior to the current FA. When an article is re-used, mark it in the following manner:
-
:Well, since this ''is'' April Fool's week, [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 14.2|and, um, we should... crap. What was that one article? I was gonna mention that one article on something... about... something... Aw, nevermind. If I think of it, I won't call you back.]] {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 21:04, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

{{FA queue|<date>|Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=<article name>}}

:::We should do the most bizarre thing on the site. Or something fake. Just because we're a Wiki doesn't mean we can't have a little fun with April fools, right?--{{User:T3H_CH3K7_888/sig}} 17:42, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

::::Is there anything in particular you support featuring instead of MAM 14? And if so, why? {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:36, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
+
Example:
-
:::::Well, the only other things I can think of are either [[PayPlus!]] or maybe even [[sb email 22]] (but that one is not really considered April Fool's, though). At least MAM 14 mentions April Fool's at one time. So we could kill two birds with one stone here: do a holiday theme and do something that only recently got recognition. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:37, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

I think we should feature [[credit card]] for april fools because he pranks homestar!--[[User:Safariventureman|Safariventureman]] 18:51, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
+
{{FA queue|15 Aug 2011 |Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=1-Up}}

:[[:Image:Doug Walker Facepalm.png|*facepalm*]] Credit Card came two months before April Fool's.  I support PayPlus! or MAM 14.2 (only for the theme, not the quality of the toon itself) getting featured. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 19:15, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
+
</pre>
-
::As no one has actually bothered to give any reasons against the original suggestion, I'm going to call this discussion in favour of MAM 14. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:01, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I think it's finally time to feature [[email thunder]]. With full-length hremails about, I think we should feature their origin. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 16:45, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:Well, while I do agree that email thunder needs to be featured soon, I think that, this week, with it supposedly being Spring Break for many people, we should do [[The Luau]], something that a lot of people have been clamoring for. Maybe we can do email thunder next week. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 01:13, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::Yes, this week seems quite a bit better for [[The Luau]] than the one I proposed.  I'm all for it.  {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 06:31, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::[[The Luau]] seems like a good selection.  However, I really believe that it's ''way too early'' to feature [[email thunder]]. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 03:17, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

For this week, I think we should do another live appearance by something TBC-related: [[TMBG Concert - 3 May 2006|a concert by TMBG, only this time from 2006]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 07:12, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:I think [[Hremails]] deserve a shot. By the time this article's date rolls around, ther'll be plenty of them (hopefully). {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 23:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::Key word: hopefully. I'm not a nonbeliever, but by the small chance that it doesn't continue very far, we better save that nomination until then. {{User:HRjcm/sig}} 02:17, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::Unfortunately, the TMBG Concert - 3 May 2006 page is rather short and contains little information, as well as having no good quality pictures.  I think that [[Fightgar]], an idea proposed a couple weeks back, deserves to be featured. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 02:33, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::How about [[Bug In Mouth Disease]] because it has most inside references in it and it's really funny to watch.-{{User:Record307/sig}} 02:39, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::::Bug in Mouth Disease has [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2007, week 4|already been done]]. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 02:43, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::::Reply to GuardDuck: I want to do another live appearance by something TBC-related that had pictures, and after a search, the TMGB concert came to mind. Maybe if we were to expand the intro somewhat, that could help. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:49, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::I'm afraid I have to agree that this article isn't really suitable for featuring at this point. The info on the appearance is just too sparse at this point. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:26, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::::::Okay, then how about [[ROFLCon - 26 Apr 2008|TBC's trip to ROFLCon in 2008]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:42, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
+

:::::::::That one's pretty stubby, too, and I know there's a lot more information out there that needs to be added. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:37, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

-
::::::::::Okay, then, I've got it: [[Pulse Interview - 1 Aug 2003|the Pulse Interview of 2003]]. That one is a bit longer ''and'' features pictures to boot. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:56, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do the email [[50 emails]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:57, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
+
:''Discussions in this section regard articles that, per consensus, require further expansion of the article itself before the article should be featured.''
-
:I agree that 50 emails definitely needs featuring sometime soon, but there seems to have been quite a clamor for [[email thunder]] over the past few weeks, and I think we need to do that one sooner rather than later. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 05:42, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::All right, I guess we can do [[email thunder]] this week, but can we do "50 emails" before this year is up? After all, I believe that's what somewhat started the whole email anniversary phenomenon. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:38, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

:''Discussions in this section regard articles that, due to lack of consensus or consensus against, are not ready to be featured at this time. ''

This week I thought we could to [[Ballad of the Sneak]]. It's an important toon, one of the more famous Old Timey ones, and I think it's unique in that it showcases more collaboration between the Chaps and external parties. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 02:30, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:I suppose that one would work, but if we were to do that one, we should also do first [[The Cheat Theme Song]], which is just as important if not more so. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:51, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::The Cheat Theme Song is probably more important as it launched a new spin-off. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 23:05, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::Either one can work for me, although now that you mention it, The Cheat Theme Song does seem more important than Ballad of the Sneak. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 20:55, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

If we did the Tire already, we should do another resident of Strong Badia. I'm thinking the [[Stop Sign]] this time. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 04:31, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:I dunno, part of me thinks we did Tire a little too recently to feature another Strong Badian inanimate object, and the Stop Sign article seems a bit stubbish. I was thinking we could do something like [[Basement of the Brothers Strong]], since we haven't done an actual room in a pretty long time. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 05:36, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
 
-
::The only reason I suggested the Stop Sign is because of the pattern of the release on articles related to all of Strong Bad's computers throughout 2006 (I believe the Tandy was featured for week 2 of that year and the Compy for week 20), and I thought we could do something similar to this.

-
:If the intro wasn't so short, I'd say [[Lack of Visible Body Parts]] is overdue. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 01:37, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 
-
::Well, we could touch up on the different examples in the article itself. I know it's not our usual approach, but that does not mean we can't do things different once in a while, can it? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:20, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Redirects

This is a placeholder topic for 5-year redirects. Due to overall decreased activity, FAs are now being reused more often. The common practice has become to redirect to the FA exactly 5 years prior to the current FA. When an article is re-used, mark it in the following manner:

{{FA queue|<date>|Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=<article name>}}

Example:

{{FA queue|15 Aug 2011 |Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=1-Up}}

Please keep this discussion in the FA page at all times, but do copy it to archive pages as well.
