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:

::At some point, we ought to feature something from the Lappynapping saga. Ideally, I'd love to feature the entire saga for a week, but we don't exactly have a summary article for the whole thing, and I'm not sure we should. One possibility could be just featuring [[cliffhangers]] one week and [[retirement]] the next (pros, it allows us to cover the saga; cons, it takes up two weeks). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 21:42, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

:::I like the idea, but I also agree with the problems. The closest we have to a summary article is on [[Lappy 486#Lappy-napping|the Lappy's page]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 21:51, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

:::::Since Valentimes is so rarely done in H*R, featuring [[Teen Girl Squad 12]] would be a good thing for this week.  Hopefully, TBC will add more "holiday specials" in the future. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 23:36, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[[Who Said What]]. That game is very popular now, and should be featured, especially since it is so far the only old game not featured.

-
:In case this is not clear to anyone: We will not be featuring Who Said What Now? until such a time that we can unprotect this article. In the meantime, please don't suggest featuring it, since such suggestions cannot be honored. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:52, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

After looking at the FA history for this year and the nominations, it looks like we haven't yet featured a Strong Bad email.  I'd like to suggest [[comic]], the origin of [[TGS]]? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:35, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 
-
:Like I said earlier ijn the year, how about a daily featured article week with [[Compy 386]] emails. Just some classics: [[comic]], [[japanese cartoon]], [[dragon]], [[crazy cartoon]], [[personal favorites]], [[monument]], [[video games]], [[your friends]], [[invisibility]], [[time capsule]], [[monster truck]]. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 17:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 
-
::[[dragon]]'s already been featured, so it wouldn't include that. Some of those other ones may be significant enough to have a full week also ([[japanese cartoon]], possibly). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 17:45, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 
-
:::I counted eleven emails in that list, unfortunately the week only has seven! :S.  However some of these (like [[japanese cartoon]]) have already been featured. Same goes with [[dragon]] and... I guess that's it.  However, we may have featured more than I know: [[HRWiki talk:Featured Article Selection#Milestone emails.]] is a talk section I'm still going by and I think a better week-long selection might be garnered from that list (perhaps not, perhaps a common theme like Compy 386 might be better? not sure.) Anywho, at least with [[japanese cartoon]], [[HRWiki:Featured article nominations]] isn't up to date (I remember updating the Milestone emails list) since I'm guessing lately we haven't been using that list for the nominations.  So I suspect there may be other emails we have featured that haven't been marked as "featured".  --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:55, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

:::I take back what I said. I can't find [[japanese cartoon]] in the FA history. Why the heck did I mark it!? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:58, 16 February 2008 (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.
