=== [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 31]] (Jul 31-Aug 6) ===

How about [[Analysis of Homsar's Speech Patterns]]? We should encourage, promote, and feature scholarly research wherever possible. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 13:52, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:I think more people need to review and edit it before it's featured. Also let all the topics on the talk page be resolved. It may be a new kind of article, but it's still controversial and some users don't agree with the neutrality of it's POV. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 14:13, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::I also don't really like the idea of featuring that article before we feature [[Homsar]] himself, but that's just me. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:35, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::I say we do a toon this week. --[[User:Sam Goldfish|Sam Goldfish]] 21:36, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::How about another milestone email? {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 09:40, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::::[[invisibility]]? --[[User:Sam Goldfish|Sam Goldfish]] 20:42, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::::Perhaps, although I suggest that [[virus]] would be an even bigger milestone and more worthy of featuring. It's a whole email about the demise of the Compy and the end of that era of Email (as opposed to [[invisibility]], which is indeed the beginning of the Compy era, but shortly thereafter moves on to other things; i.e., what SB would do were he invisable [sic] for one day). That's my thought. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 11:09, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::::::I agree. We're featuring [[Homsar]] in December, so let's put [[Analysis of Homsar's Speech Patterns]] shortly thereafter, perhaps January. As for the feature for this week, I wouldn't mind virus. It's one of the most popular emails out there. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 20:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::::::With lots of links it could have. Agree on [[virus]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
 
-
:::::::::virus sounds good. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 07:40, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::::::::Wrote it with brilliance, boss. Can someone please(!) make the [[virus]] page look good before it goes live?! I will be away for most of tomorrow. Double-check the stage notes of the transcript (get rid of "The camera", "We see", make sure pan/tilt/zoom is correct), comb through any bad fun facts that leaked in, order the fun facts in the same sequence they occur in the email. Thanks, [[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 05:37, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::::::::::Should we mention on the featured bit that this was the email that helped STUFF come to be? {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 05:56, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[[Lappy 486]]? --[[User:Sam Goldfish|Sam Goldfish]] 02:13, 30 July 2006 (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:
-
:[[Compy 386]] came first and hasn't been featured yet. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 06:01, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
+
<pre>
-
::[[Tandy 400]] has already been featured, so I guess it makes most sense to move on to the Compy next. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:14, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

What about a non-main character, like [[Marshie]] or [[Senor Cardgage]]? --[[User:Sam Goldfish|Sam Goldfish]] 01:20, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I admit, I'm having a hard time envisioning it there on the main page: I see that one sentence at the top of the article, and then a partial list with the old "more" link at the end.

::::::::::::Good choice. Fellow gnomes, make sure that the article looks pretty, too.

Something real-world. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 22:27, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

:I think it's time to do [[If I Ran the Camera]]. --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 12:50, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::That's still a bit too cartoony for me. ;) &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 12:56, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::Maybe [[Harmless Junk, Inc.]]? --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 13:07, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::That '''is''' a major part of the Homestar world, but is the article really that insightful? Need alot more information {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 15:23, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::::It has plenty of information to me. --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 21:10, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

-
Ok, I have an idea: A joined feature of [[Homestarmy]] and [[The Battle of Strong Badia]]. I won't mind even if the two articles will somehow be merged together. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 13:38, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:Sometime in the future, with plenty of preparation (more than the 1 week we have now). I still want something real-world. I like Harmless Junk, Inc. A good-sized paragraph can be squeezed out of that article easily. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 04:34, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::Is HJ OK with everyone? --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 19:25, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::No. That article have hardly any info. a small opening, some dates and a boring table. I still suggest Homestarmy. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 21:21, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::It's still bigger than most pages. --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 23:47, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::::It may be, but still not FA worthy. You know what? try to make a faux FA page for it to put on a fake front page on your userspace. If it's big enough I guess it's alright. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 08:56, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
::::::I agree with Elcool. The Harmless Junk article is not very inspirational. It's also most probably not interesting to first time visitors who stumbled on our main page. I suggest we feature the Homestarmy (not a starmy/battle mashup). The article is good and the Homestarmy certainly deserves to be featured. Do you has what it takes?{{User:Loafing/sig}} 10:16, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:::::::But if we ''do'' something real-world, I also suggest [[Matt]]. Homestarmy sounds OK, too. --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 17:11, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

How about [[Hallrunner]]? We seem to have a comprehensive guide to that. ¤ {{User:The Mu/sig}} 21:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 
-
:Although I do like Hallrunner, I agree with the King. He does need to be featured this month. And no one likes him, so let's get him out of the way fast. =3 --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::I like the KoT! Get him out there fast! ;-) {{User:Loafing/sig}} 21:53, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 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.
