=== Redirects ===

This is a placeholder topic for 5-year redirects. Due to overall decreased activity, FAs are now being reused more often. The common practice has become to redirect to the FA exactly 5 years prior to the current FA. When an article is re-used, mark it in the following manner:

<pre>
{{FA queue|<date>|Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=<article name>}}
</pre>

Example:

<pre>
{{FA queue|15 Aug 2011 |Redirects|alternatediscussion=yes|decision=1-Up}}
</pre>

Please keep this discussion in the FA page at all times, but do copy it to archive pages as well.

Well, it was the first-ever H*R animation. '''[[User:RickTommy|Rick]][[User talk:RickTommy|Tommy]] [/wiki/Special:Contributions/RickTommy (edits)]''' 00:40, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

There is a draft [[HRWiki:Featured Article Selection/Drafts|here]], though the writeup needs some trimming. I'm in support for this. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 13:44, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
I agree with ngamer. This is a fine feature. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 18:16, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

[[flag day]]. '''[[User:RickTommy|Rick]][[User talk:RickTommy|Tommy]] [/wiki/Special:Contributions/RickTommy (edits)]''' 06:18, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

I'll support this. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 18:01, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
This works. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 11:21, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
I'm cool with featuring this too. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:16, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

It has a long enough intro, starts with a quote from an interview, and is important to the TBC; what more could you want? '''[[User:RickTommy|Rick]][[User talk:RickTommy|Tommy]] [/wiki/Special:Contributions/RickTommy (edits)]''' 08:12, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Can you trim that draft down to a more reasonable size. We aren't trying to shove whole articles in FAs. =P — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 13:44, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
Okay, I've done so. '''[[User:RickTommy|Rick]][[User talk:RickTommy|Tommy]] [/wiki/Special:Contributions/RickTommy (edits)]''' 14:06, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
Better. I'll support this. Do note that Gfdgs never gave a vote for/against, so this can't be put in the FA queue yet, Rick. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 14:05, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
This would be a decent feature, i guess. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 11:21, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

=== The Interview ===

It's one of the oldest toons that hasn't been featured yet. '''[[User:RickTommy|Rick]][[User talk:RickTommy|Tommy]] [/wiki/Special:Contributions/RickTommy (edits)]''' 07:17, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

A classic. I'm actually rather surprised that it hasn't been featured yet. This, for a change, is a good suggestion. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 11:10, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
Agreed. Count me in supporting this. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 18:13, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
In order to not have another week roll by without doing it, I drafted a writeup in [[HRWiki:Featured article for 2012, week 27|next week's slot]] to get the ball rolling. It's my first FA writeup, so it could probably use some improvements. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 04:26, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Looks fine to me. Good jorb. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 20:01, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

As the first H*R toon I ever saw, I'd like to see it featured sometime soon. '''[[User:RickTommy|Rick]][[User talk:RickTommy|Tommy]] [/wiki/Special:Contributions/RickTommy (edits)]''' 13:30, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

I'll unstall this to give it a vote for approval. This sbemail did introduce Thy Dungeonman which got three games in the series. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 15:43, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Seems like it could make a good feature. I'll support this for next week. — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 16:16, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
I support this suggestion. If Ngamer meant "the week starting with July 22" in the strong badathlon discussion, then July 16 - 22 will work for this one. https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/8e/JustOnionBubs.png/20px-JustOnionBubs.png[[User:The Knights Who Say Ni|The Knight]][/wiki/Special:Contributions/The_Knights_Who_Say_Ni s Who] [[User talk:The Knights Who Say Ni|Say Ni]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/6/68/sbeyes.PNG/20px-sbeyes.PNG 19:44, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Why not feature this one around the time of the Olympics? We talked about doing so four years ago, but the suggestion came in last minute, and that was under the old format when it was kind of hard to shift the weeks of FAs around, so we didn't get to 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 07:05, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. I support this. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 19:36, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
This is a great idea! — '''''[[User:DeFender1031|Defender1031]]*[[User talk:DeFender1031|Talk]]''''' 03:51, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Question. If we do feature this, when will it go up? The week of July 22nd since the opening Olympics ceremony is that Friday? — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 15:43, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

I think that's a good idea. Featuring it the week after might be a little late and this might be a good lead-in. It'd be nice if there was something similarly-themed that could be featured the week after. Any other opinions? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:09, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
Ngamer - did you mean the week of July 23 - 29? I agree that this is a great idea. https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/8/8e/JustOnionBubs.png/20px-JustOnionBubs.png[[User:The Knights Who Say Ni|The Knight]][/wiki/Special:Contributions/The_Knights_Who_Say_Ni s Who] [[User talk:The Knights Who Say Ni|Say Ni]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/6/68/sbeyes.PNG/20px-sbeyes.PNG 19:44, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, I meant July 23-29. H*R Wiki weeks are different (Monday - Sunday) from calender weeks (Sunday - Saturday) after all. — [[User:Ngamer01|Ngamer01]] 20:10, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
Sure, that's a fine week to do 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 17:15, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
