These nominated articles became Main Page features.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

I'm partly doing this to attract attention to it, as the article is probably lacking a lot of the information it could have. Also, I think it's a good article to feature as SSBB's the game of the moment, and it does have a few interesting pictures and bits of writing. GP 15:49, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

  • The fact that it isn't about the games themselves annoys me. However, you have convincing points... Heck, I'll give it a yes. It won't hurt anyone.--Prezintenden
  • I support it as long as the discription on the front page says something like "Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a Nintendo Fighting Game in which Olimar is a playable character." 67.172.252.52 01:49, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
    Yeah, it'll be the first paragraph already on the article, plus whatever seems important and well-written from further down. GP 08:04, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Scale

I think this is a good article bc it has a lot of info, shows how to solve them, and has good pictures. IAMAHIPO_ocolor 15:49, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

Firstly, I think some bits need rewording, as it's a bit...wordy. After that, I'll reconsider. GP 16:49, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

The Ship

Well-written, adequate images, quite comprehensive. GP

Many (3 decent...*cough*) images, as much as you would want to know, even external links. And it's a plant. No plants have been featured yet. GP

Bulbmin

I like Bulbmin because the bulborb-pikmin symbiotic relationship is so unique and compelling, in particular the Juvenile ones you can control. Also, players of Pikmin 2 who stopped playing before encountering them might feel compelled to play it again. 71.205.154.176 23:45, 7 May 2008 (UTC)Mikeburnfire

  • Right, they're the only non-mentioned Pikmin, so I'll count them as a spoiler; as small as it is. It's certainly an article still worth featuring, but not now. --Prezintenden 18:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Ditto.~CrystalRedpikminsprite.jpgLucario~

Comments

Also, would it be possible to split up the Bulbmin topic into "Bulbmin (adult)" and "Bulbmin (Juvenile)"? I know that they are both part of the same species, but their roles as enemies and pikmin are vastly different.

I see no reason why to do so. This discussion was also held here. Adding Bulbmin to the main page is rather spoilish. Do we ignore this fact? I'm not sure to what extent this would spoil.--Prezintenden
Actually, I split the page quite a while back, sorting everything out. GP
Were we talking about splitting it into different pages, or into different sections?--Prezintenden
I think the original suggestion was splitting into 2 pages, then we both said it would be better to split the article, which I did. Then it kind of went away. GP 18:17, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Fix joo think? I'm ~CrystalRedpikminsprite.jpgLucario~ And I approve this message.

Caustic Dweevil

'Cause we need to feature something. I just cleaned up the text in this one, but it could do with a new picture. Another option is Red Bulborb. GP

SirPikmin,SIRPIKMIN.JPGYour Bold Pikmin Knight!Contributions-It's a good artical.So good, that the first time I read it I thought Olimar himself made it! It has improved ever since.

Not featured

These nominated articles did not become Main Page features.

Captain Olimar

He's the main character and has a great article so why not?

  • (Nominator) Bucktooth_Tuba
  • C'mon guys, this is Olimar! Who cares if he's been featured before, he's the main event! I support. Mikeburnfire 20:56, 10 May 2008 (UTC)Mikeburnfire

Oppose

  • Okay, I'm actually going to oppose. Firstly, it's a bit predictable, not exactly a novel feature. Secondly, for one of the main articles, half of it is a retelling of the story of both games. It needs some reorganisation at the very least. Finally...we can't all support everything, as it'd be impossible to choose one. GP 18:13, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Ditto.--Prezintenden

Burrowing Snagret

A fairly popular enemy, but not as common as the Red Bulborb, for example. Also, it is a boss, but not very spoilish. I think the article is well written too. 67.172.252.52 01:49, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Support

  • I agree with nominator.IAMAHIPO_ocolor
  • Me too. It's long enough and well-written. Could get a better image and have most of the first bit moved to 'how to kill', though. GP

  • I think this has already been feautered about the time I started coming... <.<'~CrystalRedpikminsprite.jpgLucario~ 12:11, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
    It was agreed that if an article was recently faetured in the auto rotation, it is irrelevant and can be featured now again. I would keep this for the future, as it is a good article.--Prezintenden 13:30, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

S.S. Dolphin

Okay, think, this was the entire reason Pikmin 1 was started. If The Dolphin hadn't have any pieces blown apart, Olimar would just have blasted off again. Their would be no Olimar meeting Pikmin and the series wouldn't even exist. Pik kid 16:48, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

  • I suppose. It's a bit short, but there's not much else it could have. GP

Against

  • That isn't that great of an artical, it looks like it should be on GameFAQ's and needs major fixing so it isn't purely a guide, and KB72 you should give us reasons... I'm ~LonelyRedpikminsprite.jpgTurret~ And I approve this message.
  • Yeah, it has layout issues and sections aren't divided up very well. Some parts of the text are too long and just look daunting. GP
  • He just ain't cool enough if you ask me. AFROMAN 22:18, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
