Wookieepedia:Featured article nominations

The featured articles of the wiki are articles that represent the best Wookieepedia has to offer. This is not a way to showcase the articles of your favorite characters, spaceships, or the like.

So just what makes a featured article? Well, we've prepared a list just in case someone should ask that, and it is as follows.

An article must&hellip;


 * 1) &hellip;be well written and detailed
 * 2) &hellip;be unbiased, non-point of view
 * 3) &hellip;be sourced with all available sources and appearances
 * 4) &hellip;follow the Manual of Style and the Layout Guide
 * 5) &hellip;not be the object of any ongoing edit wars
 * 6) &hellip;not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc)
 * 7) &hellip;have a succinct proper lead that can be used for the front page featured box
 * 8) &hellip;have a reasonable amount of red links; use common sense
 * 9) &hellip;have a complete, detailed biography if it's a character article
 * 10) &hellip;not have been previously featured

For more information on what makes a featured article, see Wikipedia:What is a featured article.

How to nominate:


 * 1) First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
 * 2) Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
 * 3) Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
 * 4) The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
 * 5) Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections, it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article".

How to vote:


 * 1) Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
 * 2) Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
 * 3) If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
 * 4) As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors.
 * 5) Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article".

Also remember to add nominated at the top of the article you are nominating.

Every Sunday the next article in the queue will be highlighted on the Main Page as featured, marked with the featured template and removed from the list of nominations. The beginning of the article then appears on the Main Page via the featured article template. Nominees that are inactive for a month will be eliminated from the nominations list.

Objections
 * Rewrite the introduction. She's grown up now, therefore her introduction should be about her achievements rather than her parents and training. --Imp 15:47, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The intro has been reworked. What do you think now?  - breathesgelatin Talk 05:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Need to work out the image issue, there are way too many near the end of the article where there is less text. Either more text needs to be added or some of the images need to be removed. Cull Tremayne 06:30, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I've played around with the pics, and I think it is now more balanced. --Eyrezer 10:53, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Lets hope it stays good with all the new info sure to come Jedi Dude 10:58, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Can we get a source for this image? I know it's from a card of some sort, but what card line, etc.
 * Nicely detailed...a little too nicely detailed though. The sections illustrating Jaina's youth and Jedi training could use a lot more cutback on the level of detail; we're summarizing a series of books, not describing certain chapters in individual novels.  An overload of subsections and some of them are rather unnecessary.  I'm also questioning the necessity of the disambuigation notice for the same reason why quotes from Wookieepdians were voted off from being featured QOTDs.  Otherwise, the article seems to be alright. &mdash;Mir  len  05:13, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, no offense, but that's crossing the line just a bit too much. I realize the Kwenn disambig (sort of) because it's a fairly obscure article, but Jaina Solo is a major character and a main character in the ongoing book series, no one is going to come here looking for the Wookieepedian and be confused that they came to the character. Seriously now. Cull Tremayne 06:36, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * This issue has been resolved.  - breathesgelatin Talk 05:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Can we get a "Romance" section like on her parents and uncle's article? Between Kyp, Jag and Zekk there is enough candidates. QuentinGeorge 08:09, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, besides a Romance section, I'm a bit surprised that Jaina has neither a "Personality and traits section," nor a BtS. I know we can write a personality and traits section pretty easily. As for the BTS, I'm not going to be a stickler on that one, just surprised there's not information there already--it seems like there would be something. It bugs me that Jaina is the twin who always gets shortchanged. Oh, and to summarize the still-standing objections: source that one image, get a Romances section, and get a personality and traits section. Has the objection about thinning out the overmuch detail been addressed?  - breathesgelatin Talk 05:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Breathes, I've contacted an author for permission to use some BTS from The Other Side of the Sky website, so hopefully we'll have some soon. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 22:15, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * In a reponse to Breathes's question, I don't think the thinning out unnecessary details has been addressed yet. &mdash;Mir  len  22:51, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I've looked at it and I really don't think there's too much unnecessary detail. If you look at articles like Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian, we are trying to give them more detail than they've previously had, IMHO. Can you cite some examples? Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 15:41, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I apologize for a late response. Reunion could use a little cut down of detail; there seems to be some detail there that I feel isn't notable.  Perhaps the first three paragraphs in Trip to the Jedi Praxeum, as well as Abduction and First Corellian Insurrection.  Caamas Document section is fine in terms of level of detail, but I can't help feel that it is not very important (and dare I say it? &mdash; unncessary, for it contributes little to the character and story arc).  However, I'll leave it alone for now, because I honestly don't care as to whether or not to include the Caamas Document on Wookieepedia.  The whole Jedi training's subsections could use some shearing as well as the Tempest information. (I'm not familiar with the roles Luke and Lando play outside the movies and NJO and on, so I couldn't comment much on that.  By unnecessary detail, I mean information that seems to be more of a page or chapter summary that a summary that encompasses a whole book: "Jacen ended up being knocked down by the carcass of one of the beasts as the last surviving battle hydra prepared to sting Luke with its venomous tail. The beast was thwarted by Jaina, who used her bare hands to hold it back by its wings. Cilghal then made sure that the creature would not be able to do any harm again by wringing its neck."  What I'm trying to say, is that most of the wording in the previously mentioned sections could be tightened and shortened and still serve the purpose of summarizing a book or series nicely. &mdash;Mir  len  05:25, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks, that's helpful. I'll try and cull some of the over-detailed minutiae soon, although I'll leave some background info- I feel a little bit is necessary to understand the actions of the character. I also plan on leaving the Caamas section alone, if that's okay with you. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 06:03, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I think I've done a decent job of clearing out some of the extraneous detail. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 17:24, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Many of the quotes need to be sourced. I did two, but I don't have time to hunt them all down. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 18:59, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Comments
 * I like it, but there are not too many images at the top and they seem more jumbled up at the bottom. If you could add more images in and then, even out the frequency of image use throughout the article I will vote for it.--CountDooku13(Hyper-Communications Cartel)[[Image:Cislogo.png|20px]] 14:07, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Very good, I like it. CountDooku13(Hyper-Communications Cartel)[[Image:Cislogo.png|20px]] 15:19, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I think this article is very attractive and worthy t be a featured article. Zinnos
 * Image issue sorted out, so I'm just being nitpicky here, but the images from the YJK novels are out of order. Where they're placed right now (at least some of them), they don't relate to the history. Cull Tremayne 19:32, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I changed the Black Sun pic to one from those books. I think that was the only one out of order. --Eyrezer 00:26, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Only three sourceless quotes left. --Tinwe 17:26, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
 * All quotes seem to have sources now. --Tinwe 17:11, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

 * She's not a major EU character. We should wait until she's appeared in other places --AtomicKetchup 06:59, Janurary 2007 (UTC)
 * Major EU characters don't always have FA, and if we can feature some of the other things we've featured, I don't think the number of sources is as big of a deal. I mean, we featured Second Battle of Borleias (Yuuzhan Vong War), which appears in less than 5 sources, and no one complained about that. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 06:40, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

 * That didn't stop us with Revan. -LtNOWIS 06:50, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The intro has been made longer, and do we have to wait for books to come out mentioning her? That could be a while, since most of the newer books are in the legacy era. She's in the games which is good enough, and she will be mentioned in comics if Kotor 3 comes out Starwarsrulez 01:30, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Objections
 * Part of me hates to do this, but...
 * I don't think the subdivisions make a lot of sense. Why is the Yuuzhan Vong War categorized under "Establishing a New Jedi Order" but the Second Correlian Insurrection its own heading entirely? The subdivisions need to be worked on considerably and made more logical.
 * Certain areas don't make sense if you don't know the sources. For example, in the discussion of Kadann, the text jumps from Kadann to the false Kadann without giving an explanation for that.
 * I think the main picture should be a head shot, not full-length.
 * I haven't read the article extremely carefully, but my sense is that it probably needs a very careful grammar and spell check. Just skimming through I found several issues (primarily with diction), and more worryingly, an OOU statement.

Overall, I think the issues that I have can be cleared up very quickly; this is much stronger than it has been before and it's almost there.  - breathesgelatin Talk 01:10, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Better sectioning needed .  .  .  .  07:45, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, I'd say my previous objections are resolved. Now that I've done a very careful read-through, I have a few more minor things: the section Trials of the Jedi Master is still sort of weak. The writing is far more choppy than in other sections, and it's divided up into short, nonintuitive passages. It sometimes lapses into a play-by-play. For example, could any of the subsections here be either condensed, shortened, or integrated into one another? It seems that different subsections probably need different remedies. I've done the most general sorts of diction improvements, but I don't know these sources well enough to make a huge difference in terms of organization. Specifically, the sections on Kueller and Waru need improvement (and better titles--but maybe the best way to solve that is combination). And isn't the Waru incident technically part of the Empire Reborn movement via retcon now anyway? Also, having read the Dark Nest sections, in certain places they seem to be less about Luke and his actions then they are about the Dark Nest crisis generally. This should be improved. Finally, if we can't get the portrait-style infobox picture approved, the picture in the Talents section should be changed.  - breathesgelatin Talk 05:19, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry to sound like a broken record here, but can we get some more Marvel info integrated? I tried to include the post-RotJ info, but Luke's adventure during and between the films are lacking. I mean the whole Tagge subplot seems relevant and important enough to not be excluded. Cull Tremayne 00:10, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * This should be easy. We need some more images in about the middle of the bio article- Trials of a Jedi Master and Thrawn could both use a pic or two. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 18:31, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I think there used to be some more pictures there... Perhaps they could be reinserted.  - breathesgelatin Talk 17:56, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I worked to try and address breathesgeletin's objections, especially the grammar and Empire Reborn sections, but because I know next to nothing about Marvel and the Dark Nest, I can't really help out there. I count two redlinks in the 'in search for a legacy' section, but I have no knowledge of either of them, so I cannot correct it. I looked around for a pic Luke during the Thrawn crisis, but all I could find was on the Heir to the Empire comic book cover, but it is of a very poor quality. I don't own the comics so I cannot scan a pic in. -Solus 19:22, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Some of the Marvel info has been added. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 19:23, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
 * How many of these objections have or have not been addressed? -Solus 14:16, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * My objection regarding Dark Nest still stands; I still think it's covered way out of proportion to its importance in Luke's life. I recently got the 1st and 2nd Dark Nest books and am just about finished with reading them (I already had the 3rd). I will try to see what I can do with it once I finish that. Also, as far as I know, there is still some Marvel information left to put in the article.  - breathesgelatin Talk 00:05, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Please examine the relevant section; I've cleared out a lot of the extra material in there. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 18:30, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
 * To be honest, I still I feel like the Dark Nest section is still pretty long and out of proportion, but I'm willing to live with that at this point. I went through and made some more cuts and factual corrections and in particular diction fixes. I guess I'll go on and strike my objection now. I just hope in the future that other sections of Luke's article are expanded so that the proportions are more realistic.  - breathesgelatin Talk 19:17, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Comments
 * I nominated this before, but it was put on IDrive instead. After a week of IDrive along a considerable expansion by me, the page is much larger than it was and is now worthy of being a FA. Not as long as Palpatine, but it is over 120 kb long. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 14:32, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I just did some adjustments to the subdivisions- see if they make more sense now. I'm not sure what you mean on the sources, although I wrote the Kadann section and I don't have either of the sources, so I had to use our articles/the databank. Yeah. That could probably use some work from someone who has the sources. As for the pic- all the other major characters use full body shots- see Palpatine, Anakin Skywalker, Leia Organa Solo, Darth Vader, Han Solo, and many, many more. I'll work on the spelling- where is the OOU? Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 02:15, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Good job on the subdivisions generally, though 1.3 still seems that it needs another subheading--it looks bizarre with only one. You could probably smack something above the first text section just for consistency's sake. What I mean on the Kadann section part is that it skips back and forth between discussing the real Kadann and false Kadann without even explaining that there is a false Kadann... which could be confusing. I know about the full body shots but recently there's been a move to shift to headshots. Let's see if anyone else agrees with me; that one is really a minor thing that may just come down to my personal preference. I wouldn't hold the whole nomination up over that if everything else gets fixed. I vaped the OOU that I saw; it was in the Talents section. Just had me worried that there might be more. I'll try to get a copyedit of my own done soon.  - breathesgelatin Talk 02:43, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Glad to see my lobbying get a mention ;). I too would like a head shot, and one from ROTJ, since it was when he was in his "prime". Head shots are simply more encylopedic, whereas the body shot should go down in the personality section .  .  .  .  04:11, 18 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Like this one? Or is it to close. Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jaina_sig.jpg |25px]] 00:28, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * That's perfect! And move the current one down to the Traits and Personality, or Abilities section, and then we'll have something that looks encyclopedic. .  .  .  .  01:36, 19 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, I went back and fixed the subdivisions- moved one and added three more subsections. I tried to clarify the Kadann section, so I hope that helps. I don't care about the image, and I'll copyedit it eventually. I've already done some. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 17:40, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The pic looks great in the infobox but that's my opinion. Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jaina_sig.jpg |25px]] 23:12, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Still too many problems for my support. This article reads like a blow-by-blow account "Luke was stopped by Fortuna, then he used a mind trick on him, then he tried to talk to Jabba, then Jabba refused, then Luke used the force to grab a gun from a nearby guard but Jabba used a trap door to send him down to the rancor with one of his guards who got eaten..." It should just be something like: "Luke infiltrated Jabba's palace and tried to convince the crime lord to hand over Han. When Jabba refused, Luke attempted to kill him, only to be sent down into Jabba's secret Rancor pit." Well, that's not great, but still, the article needs condesing. We are an encyclopedia, not an info repository. .  .  .  .  23:16, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I know the section you are talking about and I've been meaning to smack and rewrite it for some time. Certain users are a tad overzealous in adding details, but this isn't Wikipedia and greater license is allowed with minutiae, 4dotE. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 00:56, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I understand that, but that much detail detracts from the article, and the overall flow of the prose, making it less enjoyable to read. .  .  .  .  01:12, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Definitely a copyedit should be able to clear that up though. I'm lovin' the new pic.  - breathesgelatin Talk 01:56, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I've copyedited much of it- including condensing the Endor section and expanding the Thrawn section. I've done up to the Yuuzhan Vong War, but as most of the prose was written by me anyways, someone else should probably look over it. Let me know if anything else needs fixed.

 * Good work on this Ataru. However I think there could be some info from Jedi OPutcast and Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. Luke was involved in both the sets of events there. The Empire Reborn could be fleshed out in the Waru section, and the Disciples of Ragnos could also get a mention. --Eyrezer 01:00, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I believe it's in Rogue Squadron, when Sate Pestage Kirtan Loor walks into Isard's command room for the first time. I could check if you would like; I have the book at hand. Jorrel Fraajic 16:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Alright, found it. Page 122 of X-Wing: Rogue Squadron, when Kirtan Loor meets Isard for the first time on Coruscant. Also found some other quotes that could possibly be used. --Jorrel Fraajic 19:53, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * She appears in Mara Jade: By the Emperor's Hand yet Mara Jade is only mentioned in the intro quote. Is all information from this series included in the article? The header "The fall of Isard's Empire" looks awkward as it is directly beneath the header "Isard's Empire." The "Ships Under her Command" section is clunky, it could be rewritten into an interesting section. --Imp 21:03, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Isard does appear in MJ:BtEH, but it's almost a cameo. Isard arrests her after the Emperor's death, and then Mara escapes. While she's in prison, she reminisces about her relationship with Isard. I admit that some mention of that could be included, though it will be about a two sentence addition. I agree with all of the other objections. Cull Tremayne 22:30, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Added as much as I could from MJ:BtEH. Hopefully it's satisfactory now. Cull Tremayne 09:03, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Imp, it was much worse in prior revisions. See the talk page. I changed it and put it in a BTS section.

After that, Bib and Bidlo Kwerve had to duke it out, Bib coming out on top. But this part is way after the Clone Wars and Episode I.

Perhaps you could offer suggestions for improvement, or what types of articles to look for?
