Here, users can nominate and vote for Zelda Wiki's next featured article. Any article worthy of being featured exemplifies the Wiki's quality standards, and goes above and beyond what is expected in a normal encyclopedia entry. Featured articles should:

  1. Have exceptionally fluid American English grammar and spelling.
  2. Be lengthy, yet detailed.
  3. Be well organized (as in subdivisions).
  4. Cite sources, and cite them properly.
  5. Be properly categorized.
  6. Contain the most up-to-date information possible.
  7. Have no template requesting improvement, merging, deletion, or any template that may in some way state the article is not of excellent quality. In this respect, there should be no duplicate of the nominated article, nor should the article be a duplicate of another page.
  8. NOT be copied from Wikipedia, or from any site that does not run the Wiki, under any circumstances!

For help on the correct format used to add nominations or votes, see the Featured Content Help.

Currently Nominated

Rauru

I believe that Rauru is very worthy of receiving featured article status. Although it is a bit short, it is very well-written and thorough. It properly sources it's information, and the images are of high-quality. This page needs your vote! —Alter  {T C B H } 21:23, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Warping

Finally a lengthy page not concerning characters or games. Informative and concise enough to be a resource for all of the series applicable titles. Interesting to read and get the whole picture of the function as gaming progressed. As a bonus, it could serve as an example of what other articles spanning throughout the series could be.User:Axiomist/sig 04:29, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm for it. It' got a nice amount of images, very lengthy in size, nicely laid out, etc. I think this would make a great featured article. —Alter  {T C B H } 16:40, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
