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:
-
[[HRWiki:Featured Article Selection/Discussion Archive 2009 Weeks 21-30|2009, Weeks 21-30]] |

<pre>

-
[[HRWiki:Featured Article Selection/Discussion Archive 2009 Weeks 41-53|2009, Weeks 41-53]]

Five years since the first featured article! Maybe we should do something special to mark the occasion? [[User:RickTommy|RickTommy]] 07:09, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

:Sorry, I can't really think of anything. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:12, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

::I was thinking maybe [[Index Page]], the most imprtant page on the site (not really, but it's often the first page that one looks at on the site), or an early toon like [[Pom Pom Too]], or one of the earliest articles to be suggested as a featured article: [[Schenactady Crispies]], or, as has been mentioned a couple of times not long ago: [[homestarrunner.com]]. {{User:RickTommy/sig}} 00:13, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

::::So, the new main page did not appear until {{pl|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&diff=next&oldid=86323 May 23, 2005}} which was the first day of [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2005, week 21|week 21]] on 2005 (see [[Wikipedia:ISO_week_date|ISO_week_date]]). I see that this year that date falls on Week 20 (after getting this wrong {{pl|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=HRWiki:Featured_Article_Selection&diff=700126&oldid=700125&rcid=660875 a couple}} {{pl|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=HRWiki:Featured_Article_Selection&diff=700128&oldid=700127&rcid=660877 of times}}). If it's that important, we can just [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2005, week 21|re-feature]] [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] as a one-time retro-feauture with a short and subtle 1-line message saying that we've been doing 5 years of FAs.  For some reason I feel it would be nice to do this on week 21 rather than week 20 (and match the week numbers).  Otherwise, I think we should really treat this like any other FA week.  Looking at the oft-ignored [[HRWiki:Featured_Article_Nominations|nominations page]] I see that we have never featured [[Parsnips A-Plenty]] and it might be due for a feature. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:14, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

-
:::::That will quite enough panicking and shouting. Doje hapjok. OK. Here are my thoughts: I agree that it's too early to feature another email at this point, though [[sisters]] would be a good one for the future. [[Pom Pom, Too]] is a fascinating idea in one sense, but I think it may be too short for a decent writeup. I'm thinking going ahead with [[Parnsips A-Plenty]] could be our best plan at this point. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 11:55, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 
-
::::::I have an idea: why don't we try for [[Sterrance]], which was proposed last week before being bumped in favor of a list of Dangeresque characters? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:54, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 
-
:::::::I think [[Parsnips A-Plenty]] works for this week. As for Sterrance, why don't we just move him to the next week? There isn't really a discussion right below, so I think it would work. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 19:14, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 
-
::::::::These two weeks flew by waaay too quickly!  As for the FA, I've tentatively copied the [[Sterrance]] text but I'd rather see Parsnips since there isn't much content on the former article.  However, I gotta sit down and watch it again before summarizing as it's been a while since I've seen it.  I wanted to be sure we had something before the UTC changeover.  --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:30, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 
-
:::::::::Why don't we just go ahead with that for this week and shove Parsnips down to next week, where there's no result yet. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:43, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

How about a Videlectrix game? We have available: [[Secret Collect]], [[Rhino Feeder]], [[Thy Dungeonman]], [[Population: Tire]], [[Pigs on Head]], [[Thy Dungeonman 2]], [[50K Racewalker]], [[Duck Guardian One]], and [[Thy Dungeonman 3]].

-
 
-
I agree with Strong Awesome in that you should discus other things before bringing up something else. On a more related note, I don't really like the idea of featuring Reddish Raddish, but I don't know what we could replace it with. {{User:Power Pie/sig}}

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.
