And in time for Decemberween, why don't we feature a toon that has been overlooked, [[A Decemberween Pageant]].  I think that is the last of the "older" D'ween toons that hasn't been featured, and it also provides a lot of the mythology of this holiday 55 days after Halloween. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 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 think [[The Battle of Strong Badia]] is a ''great'' article. Maybe we should feature that one. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:16, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

[[Jackie Chapman]] is mentioned in a couple of sections below, but if she's going to be featured at all, it should be right away, before the baby break is over (since she is, after all, one-third of the reason the baby break is happening). &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:17, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

::Since this week is the 6th anniversary of Stinkoman and 20X6, how about something from that universe this week?  [[japanese cartoon]], [[Stinkoman]] and [[1-Up]] have already been featured.  How about the email [[trading cards]] in which they are featured for this week instead? It'll be a while since we've done an email, and [[Trading Cards]] are an interesting running gag on the site, to boot. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 16:47, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

-
:::It's actually the 7th anniversary, not the 6th. And [[Pan Pan]], [[Under Construction]] and [[Twenty THANXty Six]] were featured (at least that last one will be this Thanksgiving), too, though. It's just too bad that they have still not yet completed [[Stinkoman 20X6]] or we could do that, too. Anyway, how about doing [[Cheatball]]? That article is long enough, I would think. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:51, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

-
::::Yeah, I guess Cheatball could work instead.  I wasn't sure at first if it'd be long enough. Another possibility could be [[20X6 vs. 1936]].  Either one would be fine. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 17:04, 7 November 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 it should be Trogdor related, I'd suggest Wormdingler, if we had more to go on, but Wormdingler has showed up only twice, and was only named last trogday, so Ima have to agree on  The S is for sucks dragon. although we could take in a bit of a different direction... like maybe Stinkoman related.

[[Looking Old]]. Not only is it that email's anniversary, but featuring it this week is a reference to a line from that email. Plus, we haven't yet done any emails from 2005 or 2007, yet we've done at least ''two'' emails from every other year. [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 10:00, 9 November 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. ''

:I've been thinking that while we should do emails from 2007, I think we should wait until they do the winter Olympics in February. I got an idea in mind for a set of dailies that follow a common theme. In the meantime, how about doing one of a live person for an article. I'm thinking [[Jackie Chapman]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:59, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

::Would you care to elaborate on your masterdly plan for Olympic emails? As it stands, we don't know why you're not keen on [[looking old]] for this week, and of course we all know it's important to explain why you're not going with someone else's suggestion. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:23, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

-
:::Well, in terms of [[looking old]], I was just thinking that we need to do something from 2005 before anything else, and it's been a while since we've done an article on a live person. Besides, what is the reference to the email's line, anyway? As for the Olympics plan, I was thinking of a full week of the references to [[DNA Evidence (running gag)|DNA evidence]] running gag. I was thinking of doing the six emails (165-170) that reference it and close out the week with the [[DNA Evidence|Big Toon]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 01:13, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
+
-
::::I dunno, I think the big toon would easily be worth an entire week, not just a day, and I think the same could be said of some of those emails (in particular, [[strong badathlon]] would be a good feature during the Olympics, though it would fit the Summer Olympics a lot better than the Winter). I don't really think they should be dailies. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:38, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
+
-
:::::RE: "what is the reference to the email's line, anyway?" Surely you can guess? Okay ... it's "time to relate to some 18 to 24 year olds". And the week we are doing it is the 18th to the 24th. Get it?
+

::::::Oh, that joke. Well, I still think we should do an email from 2005 before 2007, for some reason. I think we should do [[Jackie Chapman]] this week. That article has a decent amount of text anyway, and it's been a long time since we've done any articles on real-live humans. I believe the last one was on Ryan Sterritt in July 2008.

:::::::I'm a bit concerned that Jackie's article might be a tad short. It's got enough content for a writeup, but not much beyond that.

-
:::::::I also think we could use some outside opinions here. It's not clear to me why we seem to be so intent on not doing looking old, though I'm not fixed on it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:12, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

::::::::As I mentioned in the section above, I think Jackie should be featured as soon as possible (as opposed to this week), if she's to be featured at all. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:18, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

For this week, how about the Strong Bad Email [[geddup noise]]? I kinda picked something from 2005, and a bit out of left field, too. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm very surprised that [[Characters]], [[Toons]], and [[Games]] haven't been done yet. Maybe we could do one of them? [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 11:34, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:Not one of those currently has a prose intro that is long enough to be a proper featured article, so far as I can see. Also, we're getting out too far once again. The latest week we discuss should be, at most, ten weeks in advance of the current week, and this is eleven weeks out. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 11:59, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

::Yes! Once and for all, let's keep this below ten articles before we add any new ones, please? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:27, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

:::How about one that has been suggested but passed up: the [[Taranchula Black Metal Detector]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:27, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

How doing another set of dailies this week? I'm thinking of characters from [[Dangeresque]], since people wanted a set of dailies themed to that series. How about: [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]], [[Dangeresque Too]], [[Renaldo]], [[Cutesy Buttons]], [[Perducci]], [[Killingyouguy]] and either [[Craig]] or [[Baron Darin Diamonocle]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:54, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:I have three more ideas for a set of dailies: [[Main Pages]] (since we haven't done any Main Pages yet), e-mails from the second half of the [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] era (last time we did a week of e-mails, we precisely covered the first half of the Tandy era [and that was a whiiiiile ago]), and [[Powered by The Cheat]] toons (since there are exactly 7 of them available). [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 23:54, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
::If we have some recent articles on emails done up, I think we should put off the Tandy-era emails until later in the year, but not necessarily give up on that one. Besides, I chose Dangeresque characters because we haven't really done much of anything related Dangeresque at all, short of [[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_28.2C_2007|the series as a whole]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:58, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:I like the idea of Dangeresque dailies, but I still think this is too early. We just had a set in October. I think the very maximum of dailies we should ever have is two sets a year, and that there should always be at least six months between them. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:36, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
::Then why don't we try for the first week of March. In the meantime, how about doing an article on the suffix [[-èd]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:23, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

[[1987]]? (I wonder how that page has so many hits, more than some e-mails...) [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 11:09, 20 December 2009 (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.
