Well That may have been the way of the past but i think from now on only articles that deserve to be featured should and if that means we have the same one for ages then so be it [[User:Dark Lord Xander|Dark Lord Xander]] 07:56, 30 July 2008 (UTC) | Well That may have been the way of the past but i think from now on only articles that deserve to be featured should and if that means we have the same one for ages then so be it [[User:Dark Lord Xander|Dark Lord Xander]] 07:56, 30 July 2008 (UTC) | ||
:Your entitled to your opinion, but I think that's an incredibly silly way of looking at it. The Featured Article should be something that helps give a little insight to the universe of Doctor Who. Whether it be an actor, character, episode/story, tv crew member, technology, or what have you. While yes, the article should be done well enough to warrant being Featured (well written, good amount of information, and a picture), that doesn't mean we should just pick one and stick with it for ridiculously long periods of time. A month is plenty of time for an article to be featured. | |||
:On the last week or so of each month, some registered user find an article that looks intersting, meets requirements, and is different from the current article (If you select a TV story one month, do something other than a TV story the next, or if you do a companion, don't do the actor for that companion immediately after, ect.), and hop to it. It is a simple process. No need to over complicate it with polls and popularity votes. Otherwise, we'd probably be getting The Doctor every month, and where is the fun in that? | |||
:With the Featured Article, we at the wiki have a chance to show people something that they might not normally look at. A story they haven't seen, an actor they don't know much about, heck, a crew member for the show who doesn't get the props they deserve (If we had good enough articles on some of them... Originally I was wanting to do one of the music composers for the show, but the articles weren't fleshed out enough to warrant it.). | |||
:That is my viewpoint on it. Your mileage may vary. --Colleyd 17:04, 30 July 2008 (UTC)Woof. |
