=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 11 (Mar 9-15) ===

I think for this week, we should do something like the [[Storybook World]] from whence the whole thing got started. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 20:20, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

How 'bout... THE 2009 WEEK OF ALL OF THE ROOMS IN THE HOUSE OF STRONG EXTRAVAGANZA!!!!!!!! Or at least the first 7. https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/d/d2/cantsayjob.png/20px-cantsayjob.png [[User:Don't say jorb 101|Don't say]] [[User talk:Don't say jorb 101|jorb 101]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/d/d2/cantsayjob.png/20px-cantsayjob.png
How do we do that? Let's do Storybook World or [[email thunder]]. '''[[User:Raiku|Rai]][[User talk:Raiku|ku]]''' 06:17, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, we should definitely do [[email thunder]] sometime this year, but not yet. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:45, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
A response to Raiku: they only do this a few times per year, but sometimes,instead of a weekly featured article, they have a daily featured article, where every day there's a new one. They usually are related, hence the "THE 2009 WEEK OF ALL OF THE ROOMS IN THE HOUSE OF STRONG EXTRAVAGANZA!!!!!!!!" https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/d/d2/cantsayjob.png/20px-cantsayjob.png [[User:Don't say jorb 101|Don't say]] [[User talk:Don't say jorb 101|jorb 101]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/d/d2/cantsayjob.png/20px-cantsayjob.png
That's not what- nevermind. I'd rather do Storybook. [[User:That game dude386|That Game Dude 386]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/89/KOT_crown.PNG/20px-KOT_crown.PNG 22:38, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
And on top of that, Raiku, we've done the [[Computer Room]] already, if I remember correctly. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:14, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
Eh well, Storybook's a bit short, but it's significant, so why not. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 06:21, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
Seems a bit TOO short for an FA in my opinion. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 06:23, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
What if instead of the rather short Storybook World, we do [[The Homestar Runner Enters the Strongest Man in the World Contest]]? —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 06:32, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
I'm afraid that one's already been featured. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 06:43, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
oops, you're right... I looked for it under the wrong name. In that case I'll go with Storybook World. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 07:22, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
OK, looks like Storybook World it is. Anyone who happens to have any ideas for expanding it, that would be really great, though we can live with it as is if it must be so. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 03:53, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 12 (Mar 16-22) ===

This week, let's deau a game. I'm thinkin' of doing [[Population: Tire]]. Any other ideas? [[User:That game dude386|That Game Dude 386]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/89/KOT_crown.PNG/20px-KOT_crown.PNG 00:18, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, I guess, except how much description here could be used? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 01:11, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Pop tire doesn't really have a very good description for it. I think that [[Eh! Steve!]] deserves recognition this week. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 05:07, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Oh, yes! We've ''never'' done a Sweet Cuppin' Cakes character before! The only thing about SSC that we've done for an article was the area itself. And that was only last year! So yeah, it's time that this often-overlooked area of Homestar got more due. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:29, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
OK, let's do Eh, Steve! [[User:That game dude386|That Game Dude 386]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/89/KOT_crown.PNG/20px-KOT_crown.PNG 22:32, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
The prose introduction for Eh, Steve! as it stands is really too short for an FA. Anyone think we could expand that? I agree it's a very worthy topic, but it's not really ready for featuring right now. We still have nearly two months until this week; can someone remedy that? [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 08:59, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
Well, then, why not a [[Cheat Commandos]] character? It's been a while since we've done one. I'm thinking maybe either [[Fightgar]] or [[Silent Rip]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:05, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Fightgar works well. I'm all for it. https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/8e/JustOnionBubs.png/22px-JustOnionBubs.png'''[[User:DrPepper42|DrPepper42]]'''https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/8e/JustOnionBubs.png/22px-JustOnionBubs.png 02:07, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Adding more "oomph" to the Eh, Steve! article isn't that big of a challenge. I could probably do it this afternoon or something. Let's just stick to the consensus we've reached here and put off Fightgar for a different week. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 01:19, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
I think Eh! Steve's article is a little more fleshed out. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:08, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
It looks workable now. Let's put Fightgar in the queue for soon. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 03:56, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 13 (Mar 23-29) ===

I think for this week, we should do [[The King of Town DVD]], one of the ''earliest'' big toons on the entire site! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:48, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes... an early '''''big''''' toon... *ahem* -still, it is important, in it's own way. No objections. [[User:That game dude386|That Game Dude 386]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/89/KOT_crown.PNG/20px-KOT_crown.PNG 20:58, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
KOT's DVD sounds pretty good. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 00:25, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
Strong Bad's commentary on that one is still a classic bit of Strong Bad comedy. We could mention that in the writeup, probably. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 10:52, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 14 (Mar 30-Apr 5) ===

I think for this week, we should have [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 14.2]], in which one of the messages, from [[Strong Sad]], is on April Fools' Day pranks. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:59, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, since this ''is'' April Fool's week, [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 14.2|and, um, we should... crap. What was that one article? I was gonna mention that one article on something... about... something... Aw, nevermind. If I think of it, I won't call you back.]] [[User:That game dude386|That Game Dude 386]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/89/KOT_crown.PNG/20px-KOT_crown.PNG 21:04, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
That is still one of the most bizarre messages Marzy's ever gotten. I'm all about Main Paging it. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 10:51, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
We should do the most bizarre thing on the site. Or something fake. Just because we're a Wiki doesn't mean we can't have a little fun with April fools, right?--[[User:Thy Not Dennis|Thy Not Dennis]] ([[User talk:Thy Not Dennis|t]]/[/wiki/Special:Contributions/Thy_Not_Dennis c]) 17:42, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Is there anything in particular you support featuring instead of MAM 14? And if so, why? [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 06:36, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
Well, the only other things I can think of are either [[PAYPLUS!|PayPlus!]] or maybe even [[sb email 22]] (but that one is not really considered April Fool's, though). At least MAM 14 mentions April Fool's at one time. So we could kill two birds with one stone here: do a holiday theme and do something that only recently got recognition. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:37, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

I think we should feature [[credit card]] for april fools because he pranks homestar!--[[User:Safariventureman|Safariventureman]] 18:51, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

*facepalm* Credit Card came two months before April Fool's. I support PayPlus! or MAM 14.2 (only for the theme, not the quality of the toon itself) getting featured. '''https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/2/25/Clear_Chimendez.PNG/20px-Clear_Chimendez.PNG[[User:Bad Bad Guy|BBG]]''' 19:15, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
As no one has actually bothered to give any reasons against the original suggestion, I'm going to call this discussion in favour of MAM 14. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/0/08/heimstern101.gif/20px-heimstern101.gif 02:01, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 15 (Apr 6-12) ===

I think it's finally time to feature [[email thunder]]. With full-length hremails about, I think we should feature their origin. [[User:That game dude386|That Game Dude 386]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/89/KOT_crown.PNG/20px-KOT_crown.PNG 16:45, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, while I do agree that email thunder needs to be featured soon, I think that, this week, with it supposedly being Spring Break for many people, we should do [[The Luau]], something that a lot of people have been clamoring for. Maybe we can do email thunder next week. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 01:13, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Yes, this week seems quite a bit better for [[The Luau]] than the one I proposed. I'm all for it. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 06:31, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
[[The Luau]] seems like a good selection. However, I really believe that it's ''way too early'' to feature [[email thunder]]. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 03:17, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 16 (Apr 13-19) ===

For this week, I think we should do another live appearance by something TBC-related: [[TMBG Concert - 3 May 2006|a concert by TMBG, only this time from 2006]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 07:12, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

I think [[Hremails]] deserve a shot. By the time this article's date rolls around, ther'll be plenty of them (hopefully). —'''''[[User:MichaelXX2|MichaelXX2]]''''' http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/User_talk:MichaelXX2 http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Special:Contributions/MichaelXX2 23:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Key word: hopefully. I'm not a nonbeliever, but by the small chance that it doesn't continue very far, we better save that nomination until then. [[User:JCM|JCM]] 02:17, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Unfortunately, the TMBG Concert - 3 May 2006 page is rather short and contains little information, as well as having no good quality pictures. I think that [[Fightgar]], an idea proposed a couple weeks back, deserves to be featured. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 02:33, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
How about [[Bug In Mouth Disease]] because it has most inside references in it and it's really funny to watch.-https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/d/df/Record307sig.png/34px-Record307sig.png'''[[User:Record307|Record307]] [[User talk:Record307|Talk]]/[/wiki/Special:Contributions/Record307 Contribs]''' 02:39, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Reply to GuardDuck: I want to do another live appearance by something TBC-related that had pictures, and after a search, the TMGB concert came to mind. Maybe if we were to expand the intro somewhat, that could help. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:49, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
I'm afraid I have to agree that this article isn't really suitable for featuring at this point. The info on the appearance is just too sparse at this point.

Okay, then how about [[ROFLCon - 26 Apr 2008|TBC's trip to ROFLCon in 2008]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:42, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
That one's pretty stubby, too, and I know there's a lot more information out there that needs to be added.

Okay, then, I've got it: [[Pulse Interview - 1 Aug 2003|the Pulse Interview of 2003]]. That one is a bit longer ''and'' features pictures to boot. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:56, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 17 (Apr 20-26) ===

For this week, we should do the email [[50 emails]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:57, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree that 50 emails definitely needs featuring sometime soon, but there seems to have been quite a clamor for [[email thunder]] over the past few weeks, and I think we need to do that one sooner rather than later. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 05:42, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
All right, I guess we can do [[email thunder]] this week, but can we do "50 emails" before this year is up? After all, I believe that's what somewhat started the whole email anniversary phenomenon. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:38, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

=== HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 18 (Apr 27-May 3) ===

This week I thought we could to [[Ballad of The Sneak|Ballad of the Sneak]]. It's an important toon, one of the more famous Old Timey ones, and I think it's unique in that it showcases more collaboration between the Chaps and external parties. —[[User:Guard Duck|'''''G''''''''''u''''''''''a''''''''''r''''''''''d''''' '''''D''''''''''u''''''''''c''''''''''k''''']] [[User talk:Guard Duck|'''''t''''''''''a''''''''''l''''''''''k''''']] 02:30, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

I suppose that one would work, but if we were to do that one, we should also do first [[The Cheat Theme Song]], which is just as important if not more so. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:51, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
The Cheat Theme Song is probably more important as it launched a new spin-off. '''https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/2/25/Clear_Chimendez.PNG/20px-Clear_Chimendez.PNG[[User:Bad Bad Guy|BBG]]''' 23:05, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
