HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 1

Perhaps Homestar Runner (the character, not the flash cartoon) for the first week of 2006. Then every month or so, throw another main character in there, working our way down? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:22, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Whoa, 12 months, 12 main characters. It's like it was meant to be. Username-talk 20:23, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Totally seconded. Now the only thing to work out is the order. --DorianGray

Although, after further inspection, it seems as though the featured article for "Week 1" will only be on Sunday the first. A one day feature. Perhaps we should move H*R to the next week, and stick... Cold Ones here! Fitting for "New Years Day"? Either that, or we could just copy 2005, week 52, so it'll just carry on into Sunday. That was JoeyDay's suggestion. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:28, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Well it's getting too close, so I went ahead and used Cold Ones. Any objections? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 01:08, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

As it turns out, the week does not reset concurrently with the year, meaning that Sunday, January 1, appears as "2006, week 52" and week 1 will start on Monday, January 2. I have therefore moved the Homestar Runner article back to this week (although the coding for Cold Ones is still in the history, if we need it later). — It's dot com 00:45, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 2

What about moving H*R here, so he gets a full week feature? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:29, 12 December 2005 (UTC) H-star-R. All the way. The new edition on his relationship with Marzi is great. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:09, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

This week is now empty again and needs a suggestion. — It's dot com 00:45, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Then what about the Tandy 400? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 02:11, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I was think about an interview or public appearance. It will seem small compared to the jumbo FA the week previous, but I think we can make a good write-up for something like the Bobby Blackwolf Interview. —BazookaJoe 02:19, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I don't think you can describe an interview very well. Well, I guess you could, but it doesn't really seem like "featured article" material. I'd be more inclined to go with the Tandy. -- Super Sam 03:53, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Okay, well I'd like to get ahead on these, so I'm putting Tandy 400 up, and suggesting an interiew for Week 6. That'll give us lots of time to discuss the pros and cons. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 02:06, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 3

I wouldn't mind seeing Litigation Jackson somewhere. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:31, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Jackson is good, but Leomard Sportsinterviews is better. (It could use a gallery though) — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:11, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Yes. Lem – seconded. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ @ 07:26, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 4

Since the cleanup, I've been itching to get Minor Teen Girl Squad Characters in somewhere... ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:33, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Great page now that the 10^th issue was released. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:12, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Yes! Post my baby! Oh, how you've grown... - Joshua 13:23, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 5 (Jan 30-Feb 5)

What about the Original Book? Or perhaps there'll be a better oppourtunity to feature it? This one isn't really themed at all. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:38, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

{excitedly} Ooh, ooh, ooh, I like that. Original Book. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ @ 07:29, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 6 (Feb 6-12)

Since it'll hopefully be finished by now, what about Stinkoman 20X6? Perhaps change the synopsis a bit, to reflect that this page has Walkthroughs, enemy lists, ect. Give it a nice "game guide" feel? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:42, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

If if's and but's... — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:13, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Better yet, why not an interview here? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 02:07, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Bobby Blackwolf Interview - 5 Sep 2005 is on my list to complete. I will make a write-up suitable for FA. —BazookaJoe 21:57, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 7 (Feb 13-19)

For the first feature begining in Febuary, what about moving onto the next obvious character in line, Strong Bad? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:36, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

He have the longest biography, but could use another section. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:18, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 8 (Feb 20-26)

Perhaps also get the computers done throughout the year. Starting with Lappy 486, Tandy 400, maybe Compy 386, perhaps even Tangerine Dreams. I think any of those would be a nice choice sometime. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:43, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Tandy 400. Good page, the real computer section is great. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:08, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Since we decided to feature the Tandy earlier, we'll need something else. How about Strong Bad Email: english paper or perhaps Crap. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 05:31, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Do you really want the first email to be english paper? what about a longer page like virus or a page with sub-pages like rock opera? Crap is too new. wait for it to grow a bit, get a format. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 05:42, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Though we won't be going through every single Strong Bad Email anytime soon, I would like the first one to be some kinda robot, then go through the hilights (in no particular order) every know and then hence-forth. virus, dragon, obvious ones like that. For this week, why not... Homeschool Winner? Though a small article, I think it could make a decent feature. That was one of the pages JoeyDay originally had set to feature. After following that link, it seems as though they're Old Characters. Definently featureable. Any objections? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 06:13, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Uh! My page! Sweet. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 23:33, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

As Thunderbird L17 won't (or shouldn't) be on for a while, I'll be bold and go ahead and create this one and the one after it. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 18:00, 25 January 2006 (UTC) EDIT: As this one will take some writing, I'll do it in an hour or so, after I get back from class. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 18:00, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Page has been moved to Rejected Characters with Old Characters as a redirect. Should we still do this one, or pick something else? And if (and I have a feeling we will) do feature this one anyway, should we undo the page move, or just feature it as Rejected Characters? — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 19:09, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Now he needs a picture. Use one from the page, or use a different one? — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 19:41, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Homeschool Winner. The most known and fan favorite. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 19:44, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 9 (Feb 27-Mar 5)

The Museum could also be a nice feature sometime. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:40, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

I'd like to see Trogdor somewhere, ever since it was de-stubbed. Has Trogdor already been featured? — Has Matt? (talk) 01:37, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

No he hasn't, and I agree, he'd be an excellent feature. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 02:33, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Before it's featured, some more information could be added from the new DVD PQ outcasts. I don't have the DVD, so I can't add it myself. The Opening should should could use some more info. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 10:31, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

I suggest that we do They Might Be Giants this week. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 04:28, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

TMBG sounds cool. Any other opinions? — Has Matt? (talk) 01:14, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

As long as nobody opposes TMBG, I think we could probably feature them. I would like a good picture of the band from an external source to add to it though. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 01:22, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Howaboutthis? --Sam Goldfish 04:54, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Or this one? — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 17:59, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

HRWiki:Featured article for 2006, week 10 (Mar 6-12)

Perhaps the Store or something? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 20:45, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

The old one or the new one? I think it would be cooler to feature a page that isn't there anymore, but was there recent enough for people to reminisce about it. — Lapper (talk) 16:46, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Some other ideas I'm just throwing out here: The Show, Homestar Runner's Pants, Homestarmy, The Virus, TV Shows, Strong Bad's Basement, Hanging Objects, The Office, The Athletic Field, Dullard, Dangeresque (film series), The Field, Senor Cardgage, Whatsit, Castlefunnies, Lack of Visible Arms. — Has Matt? (talk) 02:48, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Those are all great ideas. If they aren't already on the nominations page, feel free to add them. That's where I usually browse to get ideas for features. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 02:25, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Store has been bugging me for a while. I don't want to use it until we do something with it (as in, it's not a pile of clutter). I think Flash Store would be cool to use, though. —FireBird|Talk 02:25, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Store is a nice idea, but I would like to see TROGDOR! sometime down the road. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 21:51, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Hmm... I would rather feature the current store than the old store, but I also would like to wait until it's cleaned up a bit more. I've gotta swing a vote for either Trogdor or TROGDOR!. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 01:25, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Looks like Flash Store won. I'll go ahead and create it. --Sam Goldfish 02:28, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Excellent work, Trogga and Cup 'O Coffee. Thanks for helping out. Those look great, and it's nice to start getting a bit ahead. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 04:31, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
