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)

:::::I've already got a Dangeresque-themed idea in mind, but it's not for a few more weeks at least. I want to do some dailies involving characters, but it needs to wait for at least two months, to allow for six months since October. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:13, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Looks like there's not much of a consensus here yet. The Characters/Toons/Games pages seem tough to have interesting write-ups for (they're really just menus and lists). The Black Metal Detector doesn't seem too interesting in and of itself; it's used used in [[buried]] and [[SBCG4AP]], but it doesn't do anything a normal detector doesn't besides its method of beeping. Dangeresque seems to be in the works for the future. Where does that leave this week? I'm not sure if this is poor form, but I'd like to nominate an article that has been largely my work: [[Flipped Images]]. It's a fairly subtle effect, often used to parody low-quality animation like CCDos and PBTC, and something that rarely has attention drawn to it. It'd at least be worth a look, I think. Plus, if it were featured, the list of appearances might grow some, I'm sure there are some omissions. --[[User:TimMierz|TimMierz]] 19:34, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

==General discussion==

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 to 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)

+
-
:::::Good point. Well, we'll see what the people in charge say. Of course, it's not like it hasn't happened that there has been an under-six-month hiatus between dailies before. In 2007, there was only a three-month buffer zone between daily articles, in 2007: [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2007, week 29, day 1|Week 29]] (in July) and [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2007, week 41, day 1|Week 41]] (in October).

Now that it's the third month and officially six months after October, I think we should try again to do a set of dailies for this week. Once again, I'd like to do a set on "[[Dangeresque]]" characters, since we've never really done anything here, short of the [[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_28.2C_2007|the series as a whole]]. Here's what I think we should do: [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] (Monday), [[Dangeresque Too]] (Tuesday), [[Renaldo]] (Wednesday), [[Cutesy Buttons]] (Thursday), [[Perducci]] (Friday), [[Killingyouguy]] (Saturday) and either [[Craig]] or [[Baron Darin Diamonocle]] (Sunday).

-
::Well, I think the time is right now to do this. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:03, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:::I disagree. I still think it's too early after the most recent set of dailies. It's a real pain from the sysops' perspective of making sure all our main page images are protected, and even without that factor, I'm convinced the minimum gap between sets of dailies should be six months (making twice a year the maximum we're ever going to get). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:03, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
::::But if we were to do this in April, then wait about six months to do this, wouldn't the next one have to wait to be available until November? Usually, we do one right around October or so. Well, anyway, how about doing something like... another character relationship! I'm thinking of [[Marzipan and Coach Z's Relationship]]. That one has a surprisingly sufficient amount of text to justify it, in my book. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 07:12, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
 
-
:::::I have no memory of us "usually" doing a set of dailies in October. If that's indeed the case, I've no doubt it's just coincidence, nothing intentional. As for Marzi and Coach Z, though, I rather like that idea. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:42, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

'''Pi''' is a numerical constant for the ratio between a circle's circumference and its diameter, written as {{&pi;}}, and numerically as 3.14. This number was often used in the [[Homestar Runner universe]], such as a price ($3.14), a time (3:14), "tt" replaced by {{&pi;}}, and even a mini-game in [[Strong Badia the Free]] as "Pizza {{&pi;}}".

::::The article is still too short, since there is not much beyond the write up.  Also, a reminder: it's not necessary to do write-ups for articles at this point, we should just stick with discussion of the merits of articles. As an alternate, would it be too soon to feature another email, such as [[long pants]]? {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 16:14, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

:::::::More accurately, the intro is too short.  Given the nature of the topic, I'm not sure if it would benefit from a longer intro; that would work better in Wikipedia. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 05:31, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
 
-
::::::::Coming back to this week, since it doesn't look like we have a viable alternative yet, may I suggest one that was passed over before, [[geddup noise]]? {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:11, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 
-
::::::::An email sounds good, but then I thought of [[best thing|the one on this week..]] but then i thought to take it one step further and say [[Limozeen: "but they're in space!"]]. I think that it's a decent article to feature. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 03:43, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
 
-
:::::::::I think it would be better to feature the SBEmail this came from, rather than the [[TV Show]].  We're still thin on featuring ones from 2005 (and this fits the bill).  Thus, I'm open to either [[best thing]] or [[geddup noise]].  {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:18, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

[[Atari Strong Bad]], [[Lil' Strong Bad]], or [[Atari Homestar]]. [[User:RickTommy|RickTommy]] 12:20, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

:You really couldn't have waited another, what, twelve hours so that you would have stayed within ten weeks as we've asked you to several times now?

:As for your suggestions, both Atari articles are too short. Lil' SB might be a possibility. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:51, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

It's Easter (well, it actually was last week), so how about either [[Eggs (toon)|Eggs]] or [[Rotten Eggs]]? [[User:RickTommy|RickTommy]] 00:05, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 
-
:We're getting a little ahead here. But anyways, I don't think we did either of them. [[Eggs]] may not have much of a write-up. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 00:13, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 
-
:How about to  change things up we put [[easter eggs]] as the featured article? Just an idea.--[[user:safariventureman|<span style="color:F90 ;">safariventureman</span>]] 02:01, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

It's Cheatday, so how about [[cheatday]]? [[User:RickTommy|RickTommy]] 05:20, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 
-
:It seems like you have decided that the limit is 11 weeks, as opposed to 10, which you have been reminded of repeatedly. But cheatday sounds like a good idea. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 12:17, 1 February 2010 (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.
