I agree that featured pages should be spoiler-free; for example, the President one could be altered to include only the information on him found before repaying the debt.  Titan Dweevil and Dream Den are similarly problematic, and I remember there being a Louie one when I first came here, containing the Dark Secret spoiler.  If I can get round to it, I'll make alterations as soon as possible.  It would also be nice to get a proper feature thing going on, featuring a particular article for, say, a week, until a new feature is written, rewritten and perfected.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

:A week? That'll depend on how long they should be. About the length they are now, or deeper? Given our amount of usable articles, I would prefer 2 weeks... However, I have never heard of switching with such. If we're writing new ones anyway, then we could shut down the auto rotate and switch manually, huh?--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}}
::Yeah, that was what I had in mind.  Basically elect an article to be featured, and take the introductory paragraph or two, fixing it up a bit to make it more presentable, and featuring that.  As for length, there's no need to go much longer; looking at the other Wikis, it seems only a little shorter than average at the moment.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
