::::::I'm shocked we haven't featured [[Senorial Day]] yet.  This would be the perfect week to feature it.  We can hold off on Body Parts for another week. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 16:39, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

-
:::::::I never thought about that one. Sure, now that you mention it, let's do [[Senorial Day]] instead and save "Lack of Visible Arms" for another day. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 04:25, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do an article on [[Crack Stuntman]]. Granted, I know that we would have done a Cheat Commandos-themed article a few weeks ago, but Crack isn't necessarily limited to that series. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:59, 2 April 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:
-
:I disagree.  I believe that an article on something like Coach Z's track is long overdue, but we would have to expand the information a bit... Or we could do an article on Puppet Stuff. {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 05:49, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
+
<pre>
-
::That was [[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_1#Week_49.2C_2005|done already]]. Besides, Crack should get his due. Besides, he has a bit more information to go on. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:15, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
+
{{FA queue|<date>|Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=<article name>}}

:::Actually, I like the idea of doing a place, although the [[Race Track]] article seems a tad blunt.  What if we did [[The Athletic Field]] instead?  It's a very important sporting venue, and it's featured in many, many toons. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 02:11, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should try again to do [[Crack Stuntman]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:02, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

:I recently came upon our list of [[crimes committed by Strong Bad]], and I must say it's amazing. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:10, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::But it's just that: a list. And even if we could do something like that (not that we can't), it would be quite a long article, considering the list. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:51, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::And since when do long articles make bad FAs? I like the idea and i think it's a really well-done article. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 22:52, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::The sheer length of the list is one of the reasons I think it's amazing. I went to the page not expecting much and instead I found that it went on and on (with multiple categories!). &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:55, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::::Well, we could do that one for a later week, if you want. But right now, I feel that Crack Stuntman deserves his due. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:06, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::::MHarrington, I don't think you should be dismissing this idea out of hand in favour of your own. As for crimes committed by SB: There is one little issue with it, which is that the prose intro is a bit on the short side. If we want it featured (whether this week or another week), maybe we could expand the intro? {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:12, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::I wasn't dismissing anyone's idea, I just didn't think that that article on crimes committed seemed decently-sized enough. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:36, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::::::Maybe [[Strong Bad's Website]]? It seems to be of good size and quality to me. {{User:TandygerineDreams/sig}} 08:04, May 16, 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::::Not a bad article to consider, it's intro is a bit lean but I think a good sized paragraph could be composed suitable for the front page.  But there are already ''two'' good feature candidates for this week, so I think we should keep that one in mind for later.  I think both Crack Stuntman and Crimes Committed should be featured at some point, and I don't have much of an opinion on which happens when.  I agree with Heimstern that the later could use some expanded prose, but that's easy enough to do. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 15:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

I think it's time for another [[Old-Timey]] character. I'm thinking of either [[Fat Dudley]], [[Old-Timey Bubs]] or [[Old-Timey Marzipan]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:51, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

:This is the middle of the year, and because the page doesn't specify a release date, I think this week would be great for acknowledging the 10th anniversary of [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]].  As we don't know the date of release, the middle of the year gives us the best all round coverage of this significant subject.  {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 02:45, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::Unfortunately, however, Marshmallow's Last Stand was already given an article [[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_1#Week_33.2C_2005|a ''long'' time ago]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::Well, about 4 years ago... isn't that when the old wiki was around?  I think that 4 yrs is long enough between repeats, and this is a VERY significant toon (like, the first full toon or something?).  If not this, then we should do something RELATING to this. {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 09:11, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::Nah, FAs started under the new wiki. As for repeating an FA, we've never done so in the past, and I'm disinclined to do so now, at least until we get to the point we really have very few new featurable articles. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:15, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

:::::Shouldn't we expand the intro to [[fireworks]] and feature that for Independence Day? {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 15:09, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to see one of my favourite toons that we still haven't featured get the spotlight this week: [[A Folky Tale]]. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:24, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

-
:That'd be interesting, except we're running out of Big Toons to discuss. Maybe we should go easy in the future, huh? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:36, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::I think that's pretty much inevitable. We don't get big toons very often, so starting to exhaust them is pretty much guaranteed. Heck, we're doing better than we were a few months ago now, what with [[Kick-A-Ball]] having been released. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:58, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we need to do [[50 emails]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 20:18, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:At the time this week comes around, it will have been about 3 months since we've featured an email ([[email thunder]]). It's a good idea, but many other articles that were good that got turned down by ones that were better (even ones that were suggested by you MHarrington) should be thought about for this week (SB's website, Crack Stuntman, etc.) [[User:Theycallmefree|Theycallmefree]] 20:29, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 
-
::Then how about [[Crack Stuntman]]? Of course, "50 emails" was once suggested but rejected, too. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 23:24, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:::You're right, I forgot. Either one be's fine. [[User:Theycallmefree|Theycallmefree]] 00:00, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

::::So let's just do Crack Stuntman now and we'll do "50 emails" next week and Strong Bad's Website the week after. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:27, 28 May 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.
