'''Featured articles''' are articles that are notable for their high quality and importance. They should be complete in content, be well-written, follow the [[Pikipedia:Policies and guidelines|policies and guidelines]], and be interesting enough to be put on the Main Page. They should also have a very minimal amount of tasks that need to be done, and should not be about spoiler-heavy subjects.


==Creating a new feature==
On Pikipedia, an article is selected to be featured every 2 months, and the newly-featured article is shown on the [[Main Page]], while previously featured articles are kept in [[:Category:Featured articles]]. To decide which article to feature next, all editors are encouraged to '''[[Pikipedia:Featured article/nominations|nominate and vote]]''' on articles. When the time comes to change to a new article, one trusted editor gets tasked with checking the nominations, discussing with the community tie-breakers and other details, and update the front page. Detailed instructions for that editor can be found [[Pikipedia:Main Page update|here]].
# '''Create a page and entitle it <nowiki>Template:FEATURE_Your_Article_Name_Here</nowiki>''''
#* To create a page, go <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurle:FEATURE Your Article Name Here|action=edit&preload=Template:FEATURE_NewArticle}} here]</span> and replace "Your_Article_Name_Here" with your article's name
# '''Write your article on this page. Articles should...'''
#* ...be a ''brief'' summary of the topic you are writing about
#* ...contain a few relevant points of interest
#* ...contain several links, relevant to the subject
#* ...contain an image, relevant to the subject
#* ...not cover existing articles information (IE : We don't need an article for every single [[:Category:Grub-dogs|grubdog]] in the game)
# <font color=red>'''Once you have written your article, add the following to the bottom...'''</font>
#: <nowiki><noinclude>[[Category:Featured Articles|Your Article Name]]</noinclude></nowiki>
# '''Finally, preview your article, check for mistakes (typos, broken links and coding etc) and fix any you find. Once you are satisfied with the article, click "Save Page"'''
# '''Your article will be looked over when an administrator gets a chance, and if it is front page material, added to the upcoming rotation.


===Writing an Article===
==Current featured article==
Featured articles should be articles that are complete in content, well written, and are interesting enough to be put on the front page. Within this page, create a brief (2, 3, 4 short paragraphs) summary of the featured article. Cutting and pasting from the main article is acceptable, but keep the summary reasonably sized. This summary should contain an image.
{{feature}}


Ideally, featured articles will rotate, possibly from top to bottom. As more articles are added to the list, the variety will grow, and the front page will become a more interesting place to be.
{{clear}}
==Previously featured articles==
In 2007 and early 2008, featured articles used a [[Template:Featured article|rotation system]] where a different article from a list would be shown on the Main Page each day. It was then changed to a system where there is one featured article at a time. A list of featured articles under this system has been kept below. Note that all articles in this list have changed since the time they were featured, and some may no longer meet the requirements to be featured.


===Weekly Rotation===
{| class="wikitable"
There is one template which holds the data for which articles show for each day of the week. In order to rotate the articles edit the template below. Articles should be rotated weekly. All existing features are in [[:Category:Featured Articles]].
