Simpsons Wiki:Featured episode

The featured episode are articles that represent the best Wikisimpsons has to offer.

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

An article must...


 * 1) ...be well written and detailed
 * 2) ...be unbiased, non-point of view
 * 3) ...be sourced with all available sources and appearances
 * 4) ...follow the Manual of Style
 * 5) ...not be the object of any ongoing edit wars
 * 6) ...not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc)
 * 7) ...have a succint proper lead that can be used for the front page featured box
 * 8) ...have a reasonable amount of red links; use common sense
 * 9) ...have no red link tabs

How to nominate:


 * 1) First, nominate an episode 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 episode 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 episode".

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   at the top of the article you are nominating.

 * 1) Good article overall, but the plot needs a little editing and could use a bit more detail at the end. Mythigator 00:45, May 9, 2010 (UTC) Withdrawn after making the edits and adding a quote. Mythigator 04:16, May 9, 2010 (UTC)

I think Bart the General should be nominated because it has a very detailed plot.

Treehouse of Horror XII
A very well detailed article with all tabs complete. A massive summary. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆

 * 1) I say yes. All of the tabs are complete and detailed. 17:04, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Completely forgot about how good this article is. A BIG yes from me! Effluvium 13:01, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) I'd like to table nominating this one until next month, if that's possible. I was planning on nominating it for June, once all its Is were dotted and Ts crossed.  Putting it into the May nominations now makes it a last-minute addition, and I don't want to take anything from the other nominees which were submitted for consideration much earlier in the month. -- Mythigator 13:03, May 29, 2010 (UTC)
