Assassin's Creed Wiki:Featured Article Nominations



 This page lists all the nominations for Featured status. The Rafiqan monitor this page and the voting process.

Featured is the highest level an article can achieve, and as such, it must meet certain requirements.


 * …be well-written and detailed.
 * …be unbiased, non-point of view.
 * …be sourced with all available references and appearances.
 * …follow the Manual of Style, Layout Guide, and all other wiki policies.
 * …not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags.
 * …have a proper lead, with a undetailed résumé of the article's contents.
 * …have no more than 6 redlinks and none in the introduction, infobox, or any templates.
 * …have significant information from all sources and appearances, especially a biography for character articles.
 * …provide at least one quote on the article.
 * …preferably include a "personality and characteristics" section on all character articles.
 * …include at least 2 images of sufficient quality to illustrate the article, if said images are available.
 * …pass review by the Bureau review panel.

If the article meets at least 5 of the prerequisites, the article is permitted to be held for nomination.

How to nominate:


 * 1) First, nominate an article you find is worthy of Featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below.
 * 2) Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is not 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 categorized as such.
 * 5) Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 Bureau supports and no objections (or the objections have been stricken or overridden), it will be added to 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) Please note that in order for your vote to count, you must have at least 50 mainspace edits.
 * 4) If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
 * 5) 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. Do not strike other users' objections; it is up to the objector to review the changes and strike if they are satisfied.
 * 6) Once the article has at least five supporting Bureau votes and no outstanding objections after at least a week, the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "Featured article." Non-Bureau members are also encouraged to review articles and participate in the process.

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

It's been a week now, and we have seven Yay's and zero Nay's. Nesty  Contact me!19:36, September 10, 2012 (UTC)

The article was already in a pretty good shape, so I only had to do some minor cleaning up. I think it's ready now, but if you disagree, please let me know and I will fix whatever complaint you have. Thanks for voting, people :) Nesty  Contact me! 09:13, September 4, 2012 (UTC)

Yay

Another week has passed, and once again there have been no nay-sayers. Nesty Contact me! 13:45, September 19, 2012 (UTC)

So... Dilara. Go ahead and start voting people! If something is wrong, not good enough, or not pretty enough, feel free to let me know and I'll fix it up. That's all, I think.. Nesty Contact me! 10:59, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As revamper and nominator.  Nesty  Contact me! 10:59, September 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) Wow, I learned a lot more about her character than I thought I knew. An informative read. -- ► Kaloneous ◄♣HelpDesk♣ 12:20, September 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * 3) This page seems a lot more active when Nesty's around ;) 12:57, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

 * 5) Really good, I learnt quite a bit too :) KaiserC (talk) 16:52, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

Comments

 * On a side note, Nesty, would you mind if I gave myself a UserFA template for this article if it passes? I did a revamp to it back in January, and wrote more than half the content :) (Just asking, as you have the responsibility as nominator.) =GuardDog 13:08, September 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * Of course, Guard. Anyone who did a substantial amount of work on the page has the right to use the userbox. :) Nesty  Contact me! 13:32, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

Ratonhnhaké:ton - Yay
Another great addition to Featured status. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 06:40, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

Big and important page for the wiki. If you vote nay, let me know why so I can fix it. Nesty Contact me! 17:39, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As revamper and nominator. Nesty  Contact me! 17:39, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

 * 4) Looking good :) 23:01, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * 5) There we go. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 23:08, February 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * 6) Given that I went over it and made some corrections, I figure that I should put my support down here. ;) Slate Vesper (talk) 03:44, February 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * 7) Stormbeast gives his approval for this nomination. Following this vote, Stormbeast will stop talking in the third person. 00:21, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

Comments

 * It needs some more images (specifically towards the end of his biography and subsequent sections), and the main quote needs to be shortened. Fix those things and I'll lend a Yay vote. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 22:18, February 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Please take another look - shortened the main quote and Kain added images. Nesty  Contact me! 11:42, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Main quote looks good now, though the personality and legacy sections still need more images. Also, the traitor at West Point part of the biography could use some images--if any are available. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 22:10, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know - problem is, there aren't any since it's a PS exclusive DLC and no one seems to be capable of taking proper quality images of the PS. And I removed the Romantic Life section, seeing as we don't need an entire section just to say that he didn't have any. Nesty  Contact me! 04:20, February 5, 2013 (UTC)

Villa Auditore - Yay
Its been a week, and we have plenty yays versus no nays. Congrats, GI. Nesty Contact me! 12:22, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

Just finished a merge/expansion on this and Nesty said I should nominate it for FA once done. This is my first time revamping something to FA so please suggest any improvements I could make. :) 11:27, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As revamper and nominator. 11:27, February 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) Needed some work with sourcing and stuff, but it's thorough and has good images. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 22:31, February 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) Stormbeast lied... 00:21, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) Slate Vesper (talk) 02:43, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 5) You show great potential, GI. and thanks for taking this project off my hands   Nesty Contact me! 10:56, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 6) Auditore5 sì? 13:00, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 7) yay The Dark Soul (talk) 15:09, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 8) Yay.  Kooala Cupcake. -  Leave me a message!  15:34, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

William Miles - Yay
It's been a week and there are no nays. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 23:28, February 19, 2013 (UTC)

Did a complete overhaul of the article. Wording and content are thorough and up to par, though certain parts of the biography lack images or quotes because none are available as he is not seen and/or heard during any of those times. I also did some last minute work with Storm, and he agrees it's worthy. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 07:27, February 10, 2013 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) -- NOSTALGIA TALK 07:27, February 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) I add my name to the roster, as you have mentioned. Might as well make it official. 07:53, February 10, 2013 (UTC
 * 3) Just made some tiny tweaks, but I think it's completely ready now. Slate Vesper (talk) 08:09, February 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) Just finished reading through it - well-written, and has plenty of images. It's got my vote. 08:55, February 10, 2013 (UTC)

Aquila - Yay
Clearly worthy of FA. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 22:44, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Nominated by DarkFeather.

Yay

 * 04:52, March 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) Good grammar and language, plenty of pictures, informative, covers the history. I approve.  21:52, March 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) -- IlMualim  Wanna Chat? 22:12, March 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) Looks good. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 02:01, March 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) Looks very well done, thoughts are organized, appropriate pictures, grammar all good. Very well done. -- Fragment -Animus- 02:10, March 8, 2013 (UTC)

 * 8) As one of the users here, i shall approve to this vote... This decision is final and cannot be compromised/removed... 16:12, March 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * 9) It could be a little more in-depth on the privateer contracts, though nothing major. Nesty  Contact me! 17:00, March 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * 10) Finally got around to reading it. Very well done, Dark. 17:22, March 8, 2013 (UTC)

Gérald Blanc - Yay
And so we have another one. Nesty Contact me! 12:52, April 8, 2014 (UTC)

I hope I'm doing this right. So, as part of my current Apprentice Assignment, I am to get three articles to status, of which good ol' Gérald is the first. I'd like to extend my thanks again to Kain, who I've basically been hounding for screenshots ever since mid-February... and will continue to hound for quite some time, I think :P

If there's anything that you think can be improved, please tell me and I will try to fix it. I want to make this article the very best it can be :) I think that is all, so thanks in advance for reading. 21:49, March 31, 2014 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As nominator. 21:49, March 31, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) --Kainzorus Prime  Walkie-talkie  21:51, March 31, 2014 (UTC)

 * 7) I'm going to be a daring individual and vote yay. :) Slate Vesper (talk) 20:55, April 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * 8) Very well-written, Crook.  http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png   09:17, April 3, 2014 (UTC)

Élise Lafleur - Yay
w00t. 16:39, April 18, 2014 (UTC)

Here's hoping Élise goes as smoothly as Gérald :)

Thanks to everybody who voted last time, really happy about the positive reception. As before, if there's anything that you believe can be improved, please don't hesitate to say so. Thanks in advance for reading. 13:26, April 8, 2014 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As nominator. 13:26, April 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Naw. Yes. One of those. --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  14:32, April 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) I see we 'ave another great article 'ere. 15:22, April 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I, the Leader of the Grotherhood, hereby declare that this is eligible to have the FA status! -- 06:01, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) That's nice. -- 12:41, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm in. DarkFeather Raven's NestRaven's Hunt 00:08, April 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Holy crap, been ages since I've seen an FA nomination... I really need to check the Wiki more often. ;_; -- Teller Words, On my Screen :O 10:40, April 12, 2014 (UTC)

Modern Times
Hey guys. G here and I'm trying to get the FA status for the Modern times page as part of my apprenticeship. For the past few weeks, Molotov and I added more content to it as it was badly outdated with Slate and Rag helping us with the wording. We added it with more photos, a quote, and contents from Brahman and Initiates. If there is something wrong about the page, please feel free to tell me in my talk page and with no more further ado, let's start the voting! (Thanks to my mentor, Teller for motivating me for this project!) -- 00:50, April 25, 2014 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As nominator. -- 00:50, April 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  01:08, April 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Looks really good :) -- Raghava  Shah  03:02, April 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Shameless preening here. -Molotov.cockroach (talk) 08:06, April 25, 2014 (UTC)

Nay

 * 1) My reasoning is similar to Slate, it's just I'm more than comfortable spiting you with a nay vote but I'm also not sure if this article really stands up the status of other featured articles. It's not a bad article by any means; it's informative and encompasses a lot of facts, but I just don't think that this is the kind of article that should be featured. -- 18:38, April 26, 2014 (UTC)

Comments

 * 1) While I'm not going to spite you with a Nay vote, I do not think I should vote on the outcome of the page with the article subject being as it is. Modern times is always going to be added to, and I'd rather not vote a page to Featured Status if the ruling is going to be invalidated constantly (with Initiates) or on a yearly basis (with a new game). Slate Vesper (talk) 02:13, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) While I've already put in my yay vote, I will say that this concern makes sense to me. Hopefully we can get some input from a few more people on this before it closes. -Molotov.cockroach (talk) 18:18, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
