Wookieepedia talk:Wookieepedian of the Month

A description of the process might be nice, rather than just nomination and administrative decision. --SparqMan 17:08, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * It's really that simple. What would you like a description of?  What makes a good Wookiepedian?  WhiteBoy 18:11, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh sorry, when I read it I missed the explanation that you two just pick who you'd like to appreciate. --SparqMan 06:09, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Hehe... Glad you see that now.  (hmm...if I didn't know better I'd sense a little sarcasm there.)  ;) WhiteBoy 21:49, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * How do y'all think it should work? I just see it as the admins taking the nominations, looking at the work that the users have done for the month, and choosing one.  I think that admins should be excluded from the nominations since we're the "judges."  And, while I'm on it...this in no way detracts from Riff's work AT ALL.  I've told him before, but this site would not have worked if it weren't for all his efforts.  He's the Wookieepedian of the Year/Decade/Whatever as far as I'm concerned!  I have not had the time to put into this project that it would have taken to get it off the ground.  But he's gotten in there and made it successful.  He's been out there editing articles, spreading the word about the site, and being involved with the SWW community.  He's an admin for a reason, and that reason is because he's dedicated to the site and making it run well.  Here's a heart-felt pat on the back for Riff!  WhiteBoy 21:49, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

We need a graphic
Can someone create a cool graphic we could post on the user page? Maybe a medal of some kind? WhiteBoy 18:14, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Process
If you're going to waste time like this, why not at least make it democratic? Seems peculiar that Riffsyphon1024 gets to pick the winner. --SparqMan 19:17, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, WhiteBoy emailed me earlier on this and recommended Aidje, and I agreed. Also I looked at the requests page and there was only a tie for 2 votes. We need more vote if you'd like it to be more democratic. (Btw, I've been considering you for next month, its just that Aidje was here in the very beginning and helped out alot on Wookieefication). -- Riffsyphon1024 19:21, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * I might add that only administrators choose the WOTM, and frankly there's only me and WhiteBoy. We will create more in the future. -- Riffsyphon1024 19:23, 1 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Although it's not a purely democratic thing (just count the votes), personally I do take into consideration the number of votes a person gets. But other things come into it like how many articles the person has created/edited, the quality of the work they have done, the sheer effort they apparently have put into making the site better for all, the person's attitude, and maybe a few other things in there (like bribes)  :p.  WhiteBoy 02:48, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Bribes, eh? :P -- Riffsyphon1024 15:02, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, didn't you get yours??? Sorry.  :D  WhiteBoy 05:45, 4 Aug 2005 (UTC)

A tie

 * It would appear we have one, between QuentinGeorge and JustinGann. What happens now? MarcK 02:22, 2 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Move to Wookieepedia:Wookieepedian of the Month?
Surely this feature is now popular enough not to be a subpage of the Community Portal? --Azizlight 05:43, 8 Nov 2005 (UTC)
