Wizardry Wiki:Featured Articles

From Wizardry Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Welcome to the Featured Articles page. This is where editors of Wizardry Wiki nominate pages for featured status on the front page of this wiki. Featured articles should include the following:

  1. Proper American English. That means everything must be written in American English (ex: color and not colour) and have proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
  2. Lengthy and detailed, but not contain repeating information to make it appear longer (aside from templates).
  3. Well organized so each information flows nicely.
  4. Cite sources and cite them properly.
  5. Properly categorized. No category? No nomination.
  6. Contains the most up-to-date information about the article.
  7. No notice templates. No template should be included on the page that marks it or a section as a stub, nor should any section. As well, no page should have a grammar template on it.
  8. NOT be copied from Wikipedia nor old Wizardry Wiki on Fandom or any other Wizardry-based wiki.

There are also specific rules to nominating an article which are as follows:

Rules

  1. A minimum of four (4) votes in support of the article are needed for a page to become featured.
  2. You cannot vote in support for the article you have nominated.
  3. All votes should be placed properly under the support or oppose sections, with your vote starting off with #, and explaination on why you think this is a page worthy of being featured, and finally ending with your signature (~~~~). For instance: "# I really like the Ike page. It has a lot of information about the character! ~~~~." Any vote without a proper signature will be removed. As well, any vote that merely says: "I approve" "I like this page" or anything similar will be removed too."

Opposition Guidelines

  1. You cannot use an opposition vote simply because you hate the subject (like you hate a certain villain).
  2. Opposition votes should only be used when the article does not meet the requirements above.

If an administrator deems that a particular opposition does not follow these guidelines, it will be negated.
