The '''featured articles''' of the wiki are articles that represent the best Paper Wiki has to offer. This is ''not'' a way to showcase the articles of your favorite characters, items, or the like.

== What makes a featured article? ==

So just what makes a featured article? Well, we've prepared a list just in case someone should ask that, and it is as follows.

----

<big>''An article must...''</big>

#...be well written and detailed
#...be unbiased, non-point of view
#...be sourced with all available sources and appearances
#...be stylized fairly nicely
#...not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. {{tem|rewrite-wikidump}}, {{tem|rewrite}})
#...have a reasonable amount of red links; use common sense
#...have a complete, detailed biography if it's a character article
#...not have been previously featured
:''Note: A nomination may be canceled if any of the requirements are not met''.
----

<big>''How to nominate:''</big>

#First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, creating a sub-page at <tt>MarioWiki:Featured Article/N/''pagename''</tt>; see text box below.
#Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
#Supporters can adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
#The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
#Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections, it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article".

<big>''How to vote:''</big>

#Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
#Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either '''support''' or '''oppose''' the article's nomination.
##If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
#Supporters are expected to help fix the problems pointed out by objectors and contact them to reevaluate the article. Anyone else can pick up this project as well.
#Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article".
