Thanksgiving in the US, so we might do something related to that. [[Toikey TV]] was last year's T-Day toon, and one of the only substantial toons related to that holiday we haven't featured yet. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 08:51, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
+
! Week !! Article !! Discussion

:Sure, we could do that, considering that where Thanksgiving toons are concerned, for the past few years, we've done an article on the previous year's Thanksgiving toon (i.e., Fall Float Parade (2005 toon) in 2006 and Let Us Give Tanks (2006 toon) in 2007). Doing it like this would carry on that little tradition (if we're doing a tradition). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:06, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

-
:::::::[[Happy T]] may not have enough content. And everyone had pretty much agreed on [[Toikey TV]] already. Remember, FA discussion is more for making a suggestion and giving your reason behind it. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 23:55, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, fall's just about over, and winter's nearing. Plus Decemberween is nearing. I'm thinking of a winter article. Any suggestions? {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 12:36, 5 October 2008 (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:
-
:Well, it's not actually winter until around 21 December, so I think that might be a bit premature at this point. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 12:38, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
+
<pre>
-
::Yeah, let's not get have Decemberween before... Decemberween. I think we should do something [[SBCG4AP]] related. Yea or neh? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 20:48, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
+
{{FA queue|<date>|Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=<article name>}}
-
:::Well, SBCG4AP's last episode will probably be around this time, so we might be able to fit an SBCG4AP related article this week. Probably the [[SBCG4AP Dev Blog]] would be most deserving. But, maybe not. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 20:51, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
+
</pre>
-
::::Hmm... well, I think it's doable, but certainly not the best. So as to avoid another week 46, I'm just gonna say that it seems to be a little disorganised, looking at the fun facts, so I personally say "no". Another idea would be [[Homestar Ruiner]]. I know it says it needs cleanup, but I can't see where it says why on the talk page. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 21:01, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
+
Example:
-
:::::Well, that's not winter-themed, so I'm thinking of something like, say... the [[winter pool]] email, maybe? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
+
<pre>
-
::::::I just saw the note from Heimstern, so instead, we could move the article on [[Don and Harriet Chapman]] down here. I'm against doing the SBCG4AP series until it's complete. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:57, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
+
{{FA queue|15 Aug 2011 |Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=1-Up}}
-
:::::::Let's do that, and then when SBCG4AP is complete, maybe we could feature [[SBCG4AP|this article]] as a whole, which would pretty much cover all of the SBCG4AP bases. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 01:06, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
+

::::::::Okay, let's do it!... several weeks from now! {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 01:14, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

So, it's gettin' '''really''' cold out (probably), so why don't we do [[winter pool]]? Perfect for this kind of probable weather. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:24, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:I dunno, it's still not actually winter at this point, not until the 21st. This seems a bit more suited to sometime in January to me. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:45, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
::We could do that the first week of January. How about we do some [[Old-Timey]] character for this week instead? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:07, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::(Heim: Winter doesn't start until December 21??? Sewiously??? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 19:22, 13 October 2008 (UTC))
+
-
::::Yes, winter doesn't start until the 21st. Anyway, I was thinking of an [[Old-Timey]] character, like maybe [[The Sneak]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:38, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::::Let's use something radio related, like [[Radio Sightings]].--[[User:NintenEthan|NintenEthan]] 01:31, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
::::::No, that one does ''not'' have enough information for it to be a worthy article. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:21, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::True. [[Radio Sightings]] is only a list. I was thinking about the email [[radio]], but I'm not sure if we should use another email yet.--[[User:NintenEthan|NintenEthan]] 02:58, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
::::::::Let's save [[radio]] for another time. Anyways, I can dig [[The Sneak]] for this week. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 22:15, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::::Just to make it known, i don't think any of the sightings pages will ever make good FAs. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 22:47, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
::::::::::On the topic of winter, [[winter pool]] seemingly took place ''before'' winter came, as there was very little snow, as if winter was a week or so away. But, if we say "no" to it, I'd say that, while I personally think that [[Fluffy Puff Air-Puffed Sugar Delights]] would be a cool Old-Timey FA, The Sneak is fine by me. No futher comments against the flow from me, I promise. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 01:47, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::::::Hey, I'm cool with [[The Sneak]]. I can't wait for the opportunity to use radio, though.--[[User:NintenEthan|NintenEthan]] 03:10, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::::::::::: Hmm... How about since its 2 weeks before christmas, how about we do the email [[nightlife]]? it's 2 emails before winter pool , anyway...
+
-
:::::::::::::...I find it a little out of the ordinary that you wuold suggest that at this point in the conversation. I'm wondering what other reason you have for your little interjection. (Also.... I thought we agreed on [[The Sneak]]? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 01:20, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

::::::::::::::Nah, let's save [[nightlife]] for another time.--[[User:NintenEthan|NintenEthan]] 03:00, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Winter '''FINALLY''' hits this week, so I think the time is right for [[winter pool]]. Any takers? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 21:09, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:We frequently do a Decemberween feature this week (like with Halloween, we've traditionally done two features for D'ween). Mind you, I don't have any ideas about what we could feature that's D'ween-related, so if no one thinks of a good one, I'm cool with the pool. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:32, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

-
::Have we featured [[Decemberween In July]] yet? I kinda like that one. (Nice rhyme by the way Heimi.) {{User:Acam30/sig}} 02:18, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

-
:::D-Ween in July is a sort of short article, in addition, i'd think it'd be better suited to some day in july when people are dreaming of winter... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 02:52, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
::::And in fairness, we have featured a short from "Decemberween In July" around this time some time ago, which was "That Time of Year". Anyway, we could try another toon that was featured then. I'm thinking [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 6]]. How about that one? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:04, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:::::I think that's a pretty good idea. We could do [[winter pool]] in January then. (Note to Game dude386, I'm really not trying to ignore your suggestions; it's just that we like to do seasonal FAs sometimes, and this is a good chance. Plus it's not that long until January!) {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:04, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Since we featured Summer Short Shorts previously (coincidentally, about halfway through the year!), I think the Decemberween article we should feature is the follow up to this one: [[Decemberween Short Shorts]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:24, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
+
:''Discussions in this section regard articles that, per consensus, require further expansion of the article itself before the article should be featured.''
-
:I would be in support of that. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:22, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

-
::I was gonna suggest that one for last week but I wasn't sure if we'd featured it yet. I would be in support of that also. (No mocking tone intended Heimi ol' buddy.) {{User:Acam30/sig}} 15:41, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

-
::::what I want has been done already. {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 11:09, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

-
:::::Even if it was available, it would have to be a minor article before the major article, which was exactly how it was done when it ''did'' receive its own article. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:30, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
+
-
So, [[Decemberween Short Shorts]]? {{User:HRjcm/sig}} 23:39, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:Yeah, I think so, and not just because of Decemberween, either, but also because we did Summer Short Shorts, too. That was exactly halfway through the year, for Week 26! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:17, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

For this week, and the start of the new year, I decided that we should ''finally'' use That Game Dude's suggestion that has been proposed for several weeks but kept getting bumped off: the email [[winter pool]]. Now that all of the major holidays are out of the way, I think we can do that one at last. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:24, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

In the past, about this week, we usually feature something related to either [[20X6]] or [[Trogdor]]. This year, I was thinking of doing both at the same time with the Trogdor-centric toon: [[Happy Trogday]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:05, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

:::I was thinking [[Trogday 08]]. It is the newest Trogdor-related cartoon and there is some historical significance (with the theme of [[The S is for sucks dragon]]) Any takers?{{User:Tatpoj121/sig}} 01:23, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

::::Who said it had to be a new toon? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 01:39, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

:::::No one. just a suggestion.{{User:Tatpoj121/sig}} 03:25, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
+
-
::::::I think Trogday 08 is a good idea for sometime, but since Happy Trogday was suggested first and has a high degree of support, we should go for that this time. Incidentally, Tatpoj, if there's already a suggestion on this page and you make a new suggestion, it's best to make sure you address the previous suggestions and why you think yours is preferable (this is not really a vote, but rather a discussion). Keep on keeping on! {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:33, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

This will mark a while since we've done a character or pseudocharacter. I think it would be well worth our time to feature [[Tire]]: A remarkably detailed article about an inanimate object that is nonetheless often treated as a character. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:19, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

:That'd be a great one! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 01:58, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

:::After becoming the national symbol of [[Strong Badia the Free|The Cheat and Tireia]], it's a good time to feature the sole inhabitant of Strong Badia. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 21:58, 24 November 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.
