On Point Kings

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 41 (Oct 11–17)

I think we should do an article on the On Point Kings before the year ends. MHarrington 18:32, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

I'd say it's a good choice of article; lots of info about a fairly obscure group. I think it'll get into the queue sometime, after Halloween is a strong possibility. Incidentally, there's some discussion on the talk page for this page about how to decide the order of the queue. Heimstern Läufer 01:37, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

It really doesn't matter when it will be in the queue. But anyway, support. 121.214.45.225 06:10, 24 August 2010 (UTC) (RickTommy)

Week before Halloween 2010 (Oct 18-24)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 42 (Oct 18–24)

It will soon be that time of year once again, All Hallows Eve. Traditionally, we have two Halloween-themed articles, one for the week before Halloween (a minor Halloween toon or something Halloween-related) and one for the week during Halloween (a major Halloween toon). Anyway, for the week before Halloween, I'm thinking of a Puppet thing, Homestar vs. Little Girl 2 (this one even mentions that a Halloween toon would be released later in the week). MHarrington 16:52, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

How about That-a-Ghost instead? And since there are hundreds of Ween-themed articles on this wiki, how about one the week after Ween as well? RickTommy (edits) 08:33, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

I don't think we should do more than two. It'd be just too much of an awesome thing. Heimstern Läufer 21:33, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

I'm not saying I'm in favor of doing three weeks, but if we did do it, then we would have to do the Fan Costumes series. Okay, I'm done. And as for the week before Halloween, I think we've just done Parsnips A-Plenty recently. How long has it been since we've done a Puppet Stuff toon? MHarrington 04:39, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

I support featuring That-A-Ghost. --Power Pie 12:02, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

I agree with MHarrington - 1 vote for the Puppet Thingy. (That Anonny Guy)--79.221.32.92 10:03, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Would it be too soon to do a set of dailies the week before Halloween? PowerPie

No, but as per tradition, we usually have one thing going before the week. Maybe after Halloween? MHarrington 16:37, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

I was thinking we could have Halloween-themed dailies. PowerPie 21:01, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

I'd hold off on doing dailies for a while. The general rule is for there to be at least 6 month spacing between sets of dailies, and it would only be 5 since our last, if this would be done. StrongAwesome 22:25, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

It's the month of. Should we do Homestar vs. Little Girl 2? PowerPie 20:14, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

We need to decide what our move is. Any other opinions out there? doctorwho295 3 October 2010

I say we do Homestar vs. Little Girl 2. MHarrington 05:57, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

I'd go for either halloweener or Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 7.0, or TAG as I said above. RickTommy (edits) 07:46, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

I still like HSvLG2 best, if only because the transcript says, "She kisses him in a ridiculously cute manner." :-) (That Anonny Guy) --93.207.73.154 14:30, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm all for halloweener, as it is also one of the earliest Sbemails. RickTommy (edits) 13:45, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Consensus was hard to determine but it looked like it leaned towards Homestar vs. Little Girl 2 which I support. --Stux 21:45, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Week of Halloween 2010 (Oct 25-31)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 43 (Oct 25–31)

For the week during Halloween, I'm thinking Happy Hallow-day. It's so different from anything else. MHarrington 16:52, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

I'd like to see either 3 Times Halloween Funjob or Jibblies 2 instead. RickTommy (edits) 08:33, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Hmm..... have we done Most in the Graveyard yet? I support the Happy Hallow-day idea too, just throwing in another idea if anyone wants it. doctorwho295 8 August 2010

Doomy Tales of The Macabre, perhaps? --PowerPie

I wouldn't do something so recent. Jibblies 2 or something older would have my vote. (That Anonny Guy)--79.221.32.92 10:06, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

We have a lot of suggestions, so maybe we could do a Halloween daily? Has that been done before? doctorwho295 17 August 2010

A series of dailies? No, that hasn't been done, but I also don't really think it should be. Halloween toons are some of the largest on the site, and they pretty much all deserve a full week, I think. Heimstern Läufer 21:16, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

I agree that we should stick to a week-long feature on Halloween. A daily the week before might not be a bad idea, though. PowerPie 01:13, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

And even without the issue of the H'we'en articles being too important for a daily, there is also the fact that there are always six of them available at a time (less if we don't see a new one this year), making a daily impossible. 121.214.45.225 06:10, 24 August 2010 (UTC) (RickTommy)

Okay, I understand. No dailies. I was just throwing it out there due to the amount of ideas. Anyway, thanks to everyone who responded! doctorwho295 24 August 2010

It's the month of. Should we do Most in The Graveyard? PowerPie 20:22, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, we should probably decide now on this. Any other opinions, guys? doctorwho295 3 October 2010

3 Times Halloween Funjob. 125.162.160.135 00:44, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Hmm, not a bad suggestion. Anyone else have any ideas? Cause personally I'm going for 3 Times Halloween Funjob. PowerPie 12:56, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

All right, it seems like we have our decision. Unless anyone else has another idea, 3 Times Halloween Funjob it is. doctorwho295 5 October 2010

I think we should do Happy Hallow-day! It's just so different than the rest (and a bit out of left field). MHarrington 05:58, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but I think we've already chosen. 124.181.20.67 06:33, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I'm also all for 3THJ. RickTommy (edits) 07:46, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Looks like the consensus is for 3 Times Halloween Funjob. RickTommy (edits) 05:12, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Mario

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 44 (Nov 1–7)

Still not registered, but still interested in FAs... :-) People keep saying, interesting Wiki pages should be featured, not just important HR universe stuff. Upon browsing the nominations I happened upon the Mario page. That's something rather offbeat and it's fitting since Nintendo celebrates the 25th anniversary of Super Mario Bros. in Japan this year. Whaddaya think? --93.207.89.184 12:38, 22 September 2010 (UTC) (That Anonny Guy)

I support. PowerPie 16:02, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Me too. doctorwho295 September 26, 2010

Cool, my second suggestion that gets accepted. I like the new format. :-) --93.207.90.213 13:31, 3 October 2010 (UTC) (That Anonny Guy)

I know, right? PowerPie 13:07, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Support as well. Mario has been a favourite of mine since I was little. RickTommy (edits) 00:40, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

for kids

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 45 (Nov 8–14)

Stave it off, 1, 2, 3, and now you can count to threeeeeeeee! I really think this email should be featured- it's hilarious, has a lot of material to work with, and can be summarized well. PowerPie 01:45, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree with every part of that sentence. Maybe we could do the Stave It Off Guy soon too. doctorwho295 September 7, 2010

Third-'d. The article and 'toon are both great, a character is introduced, and Homsar's character is developed further. -- Super Martyo boing! 05:58, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

Shopping For Danger

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 46 (Nov 15–21)

We haven't done anything CC-related in a while. How about a character, like Firebert or Blue Laser Commander, or the first major CC toon, or the toon that started it all, or the e-mail that inspired CC? 124.181.20.67 07:12, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

I agree with featuring Shopping For Danger. PowerPie 01:34, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Seconded, I like Shopping For Danger. --Stux 21:20, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Week of Thanksgiving (Nov 22-28)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 47 (Nov 22–28)

Some Stupid Turkey. 124.181.68.22 13:17, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Not a bad idea. I do think we should start thinking about that week. Any suggestions? doctorwho295 9 October 2010

Yeah, we kind of do need to start thinking about that week. As for the suggestion: it looks like all the other Thanksgiving toons have already been featured. So...sure to Some Stupid Turkey for this week. The Knights Who Say Ni 05:44, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Stupid Turkey it is, then. PowerPie 00:42, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The King of Town's Castle

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 48 (Nov 29–Dec 5)

It appears frequently - it would make a great feature. RickTommy (edits) 05:26, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't think we have featured places very often, besides The Field and maybe The Spooky Woods. We should definitely do this one. doctorwho295 25 October 2010

I think so, too. PowerPie 00:43, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

DNA Evidence

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 49 (Dec 6–12)

Another important toon that I believe is overdue to be featured. RickTommy (edits) 06:28, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

This hasn't been featured yet? I second. The Knights Who Say Ni 02:42, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Thirded. doctorwho295 16 November 2010

Week before Decemberween/Christmas (Dec 13-19)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 50 (Dec 13–19)

Decemberween Sweet Cuppin' Cakes. RickTommy (edits) 03:59, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Sure. That's not a bad idea. I don't think we've ever done that before. doctorwho295 14 November 2010

Week of Decemberween/Christmas (Dec 20-26)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 51 (Dec 20–26)

A Holiday Greeting, the one that started it all. RickTommy (edits) 03:59, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Sure. That sounds like a good one. Does anyone else have other ideas, though? doctorwho295 29 November 2010

rock opera

HRWiki:Featured article for 2010, week 52 (Dec 27–Jan 2)

An important e-mail that references every single e-mail before it. RickTommy (edits) 05:00, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I agree! (That Anonny Guy) --93.207.90.240 12:55, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

You call that a consensus? i don't see any problem in putting this up for a delay to consider Doctorwho295's request. Though i do agree that it could be featured at some point in the near future. (after considering his request) as a matter of fact, we might not have to delay this. it could be done in the week it is currently proposed for. The Knights Who Say Ni 23:18, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
