Harry Potter Wiki:Featured articles nominations

'''As per our new policy, all new nominations will now have to follow the new guidelines regarding Featured Articles. The guide can be found here.'''

List of Former Nominations
I think we should have a place to nominate new Fetured Articles. - User:Scrimgeour
 * I agree. Would it be OK to set up a Harry Potter Wiki:Featured Article Nominations page (or would this have to be done by an admin)? 00:16, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I think this talk page is fine. John Reaves (talk) 00:26, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok so is there a set pattern for nominating an article? and shouldn't there be a link from the main page to here to nominate articles?-- Thai420 Whats up? 01:49, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I kind of redid the pattern they were in to follow it easier. Just a thought what does a page need to become featured? Does it need a certain amount of votes, or the most by a certain point, etc? Also, since I put vote counts in the title, it'd make sense to update them if you vote. -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 22:34, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

What if we did a featured article every week then we would be able to keep it fresh and people won't get bored looking at the same one all the time.--user: Weasleytwins19
 * I agree with Weasleytwins19, if more users became active in the nomination process we would be able to put the featured article on a weekly rotation.-- user: JayLupin38
 * I think its a good idea. I always thought it was strange that Voldemort was the featured article for so long. -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 18:46, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Gryffindor (2 Votes for, 2 against)

 * Support He's a famous head of house.
 * Oppose The majority of the article is a list of known Gryffindor's. The article could definitely be expanded to include years they've won the house cup, quidditch cup, more information about the common room, etc. (Also did you mean Godric Gryffindor? Cause the page Gryffindor is about the house not the founder.) -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 22:22, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Support I agree that it could be expanded, but I still support it. tyminator1
 * Oppose Eh... I dislike it. I'll probably do some work on it though. It's one of the articles with the most redlinks. Syugecin

wand (2 votes for, 3 against)

 * support -dumbledore13
 * Oppose - it could use some images. -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 02:46, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose - as per DarkJedi613, also needs clean-up to remove book/film titles to conform to in-universe policy. - Cavalier One 14:41, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * support - I have added images to the wand article. As for that one mention of the PS movie, I don't think removing it will make the article better. Kyouraku-taichou 19:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
 * It needs to be removed to comply with the in-universe policy of this wiki. This means all references to book/ film titles in the main text should be removed and replaced with year values, eg, replacing in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to in 1991. - Cavalier One 07:14, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Fixed to include the date 1991 instead of the references to the film. Kyouraku-taichou 00:26, 14 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Oppose - Syugecin

 * Support - There's nothing negative I could say about it. Fabulous work again. You're making the rest of us look bad. -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 20:04, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
