Revision as of 13:38, May 11, 2015 by Spartacus (talk | contribs) (Four weeks/one month are nearly the same. Also, wouldn't hurt to outline procedures for removing a featured article...)

Nomination format

  • Make sure it meets the requirements.
  • Copy/Use the following format:
== [[Article Name]] ==
'''Reason''': place your reason here.

'''Date of nomination''': place the date here
=== Votes ===
  • Neutral votes not necessarily needed; a simple yes or no would suffice.
  • Remember to use the Support and Oppose templates.
  • Each nomination will be open for two weeks. If a consensus has not been reached, the nomination will be closed. Following this closure, the nominated article must wait at least one month to be re-nominated.

Preston J. Cole (Approved)

Reason: The article is well referenced/sourced, has lots of pictures, and is very detailed. He is one of the biggest heroes of the war with the Covenant and a very notable character within the Haloverse.

UNSC Pillar of Autumn (Approved)

Reason: Well referenced and sourced, plenty of images, and well detailed overall. It is one of the most noteworthy named vessels of the Halcyon-class light cruiser, and the predecessor of the newer Autumn-class heavy cruiser. The Autumn played a pivotal role in the Battle of Installation 04. And also because it should be given another try. --Xamikaze330 [Transmission|Commencing] 18:55, 27 January 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330

Shall we make this a featured article? Is three support votes enough? Does anyone else care to vote? --Xamikaze330 [Transmission|Commencing] 12:07, 3 February 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330
It still has another week open for voting. At this point, I'd say it's probably enough support, but it wouldn't hurt to have more.--Spartacus Talk • Contribs 12:17, 3 February 2014 (EST)

Halo 2 Collector's Edition (Approved)

Reason: I think the presentation of the article serves the article well, giving it a clean look. Though it lacks transcripts from each video, what the article does best is providing readers the best collection of videos without ever needing to leave the article.

Has it been long enough for a consensus to be made? - NightHammer (talk) 18:43, 15 September 2014 (EDT)

I totally forgot about this nomination (I blame Destiny!), but since there is unanimous approval, I will add it to the list.--Spartacus Talk • Contribs 19:25, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Erde-Tyrene civilization (Approved)

Reason: Very well-written and sourced. There is little to no grammar, pronunciation, or spelling errors. Contains a fitting quote and images in my opinion. The civilization is an interesting part of the Halo lore.

  • Support.svg Support - It's nicely comprehensive for something so obscure. Wish we had more diverse images from official stuff though (e.g. examples of their tech like airships or steamboats). --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 09:15, 5 October 2014 (EDT)

Is this ready to be a featured article? - NightHammer (talk) 17:42, 31 October 2014 (EDT)

It's got sufficient support. I'll try to get it featured sometime this weekend if I have the time.--Spartacus Talk • Contribs 17:56, 31 October 2014 (EDT)

Ur-Didact (Closed)

Reason: Well-sourced and very comprehensive. The Ur-Didact is now a major character in the Halo franchise and his article is very well-written.

Ripa 'Moramee (Closed)

Reason: The article is comprehensive and contains little to no grammar, pronunciation, or spelling errors. It is well-sourced and Ripa is a notable character in the Halo universe.

Comments

Halo: Faith (Approved)

Reason: It comprehensively covers virtually everything we know about this cut-short fan film, from screenplay to casting to budget to music. It's an unusual choice, since it's not an official piece of Halo media, but it's just as detailed as one, and so worth giving attention.

Date of nomination: 03:43, 4 February 2015 (EST)

Votes

Halo: Nightfall (Closed)

Reason: It is a great article and I don't see any grammar mistakes or anything, so I guess it is suitable for FA status.

Date of Nomination: 17:37, 14 March 2015 (Indian Standard Time).

Nominator: Coolbuddy379

Votes

  • Oppose.svg Oppose - A lot of red still exists on the Halo: Nightfall page, and the actual show wasn't the most well received Halo show. SamGall (talk) 15:17, 14 March 2015 (EDT)
  • Oppose.svg Oppose - Same as Sam. Though how the film is received by the community should not factor in judging the article.--Spartacus Talk • Contribs 11:20, 23 March 2015 (EDT)
  • Oppose.svg Oppose - The red links alone take away from the article. The article could still use some expansion, especially since the DVD just came out. - NightHammer (talk) 20:21, 23 March 2015 (EDT)

High Charity (Approved)

Reason: Lots of detail, clear and concise about a major subject, up to date, and the shiny pictures don't hurt.

Date of nomination: 00:13, 23 March 2015 (EDT)

Votes

Rampancy (Approved)

Reason: This article comprehensively covers a concept unique to Halo (and Marathon) and is pretty well arranged and improved from the mess it used to be.

Date of nomination: 01:43, 10 April 2015 (EDT)

Votes

M808 Scorpion (Approved)

Reason: This article sums up a lot of detailed content from an abundance of depictions in a succinct and well-organized manner.

Date of nomination: 01:43, 10 April 2015 (EDT)

Votes

Forerunner-Flood war (Approved)

Reason: Chronicles one of the Halo universe's most significant and complicated events very thoroughly and seamlessly integrates more recent Forerunner Saga material with prior sources — and does all this with a relative clarity and conciseness.

Date of nomination: 16:19, 12 April 2015 (EDT)

Votes

Halo Array (Approved)

Reason: A very comprehensive, well-sourced and well-illustrated article about the series' namesake superweapons.

Date of nomination: 16:19, 12 April 2015 (EDT)

Votes

Halo: A Fistful of Arrows

Reason: Probably the best Halo fanwork out there. Maybe even the best Halo comic ever written. And its page shows the loads of detail, compelling characters, and amazing artwork that make it that.
