Assassin's Creed Wiki:Featured Article Nominations

This page lists all the nominations for Featured status. The Istruttori monitor this page and the voting process.
Featured is the highest level an article can achieve, and as such, it must meet certain requirements.
An article must…
- …be well-written and detailed.
- …be unbiased, non-point of view.
- …be sourced with all available sources and appearances.
- …follow the Manual of Style, Layout Guide, and all other policies on ACWiki.
- …following the review process, be stable, i.e. it does not change significantly from day to day and is not the subject of ongoing edit wars. This does not apply to vandalism and protection or semi-protection as a result of vandalism.
- …not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc).
- …have a proper lead that gives a good summary of the topic and can be used for the front page featured box.
- …have no more than 3 redlinks and none in the introduction, infobox, or any templates.
- …have significant information from all sources and appearances, especially a biography for character articles.
- …not have been previously featured on the Main Page. Otherwise, it can only be restored to featured status.
- …be completely referenced for all available material and sources.
- …have all quotes and images sourced.
- …provide at least one quote on the article. A leading quote at the beginning of the article will be required only if there is quotable dialogue by or about the subject. Although quotes may be placed in the body of the article, a maximum of one quote is allowed at the beginning of each section.
- …include a "personality and characteristics" section on all character articles.
- …include a reasonable number of images of sufficient quality to illustrate the article, if said images are available.
- …have a "behind the scenes" section when the info is available
- …pass review by the Istruttorium review panel.
Failure to meet any one requirement results in cancelation or holding of vote process until requirements can be achieved. Articles in vote with 3 or more FA traits missing results in vote annulment.
How to nominate:
- First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above. Note that a previously featured article cannot be featured on the Main Page again; however, it can be restored to featured status.
- 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 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 3 Istruttore supports and no objections (or the objections have been stricken or overridden), it will be added to the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article."
How to vote:
- 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 object the article's nomination.
- Please note that in order for your vote to count, you must have 50 mainspace edits.
- If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved. Please cite which rule your objection falls under, if possible. Failure to do so may result in your objection being considered invalid.
- As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors. Do not strike other users' objections; it is up to the objector to review the changes and strike if they are satisfied.
- Once the article has five supporting Istruttori votes and no outstanding objections after at least a week, the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article." Although articles do not need regular users' votes to pass, non-Inquisitors are encouraged to review articles and participate in the process.
Also remember to add {{NomF}} at the top of the article you are nominating.

Malik Al-Sayf - Voting
Follows the guidelines of articles, detailed and full of correct information. Properly named headings and well-chosen quotes (thanks to the awesome people from the IRC- you know who you are!) I believe this article deserves to be put up for nomination, so choose what you will, everyone! Il Lupo 15:01, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
Yay
- I vote yay, 'cause of what I said up there ^Il Lupo 15:01, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
- YepSubject 12 Talk to me 15:09, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
- Least we can do for this guy. --VatsaGentek 15:38, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
- Agreed. This stuff's epic. --Elchzard 16:15, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
- I second (or fifth) the motion! --WarClown Frequency: 149.94 16:25, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
- Sixth! Good article to everyone's favorite Dai. Yay! 17:19, July 2, 2011 (UTC)Assassino de Roma
- I seventh the notion! Malik's article has been a long time coming. -- Rayne Message 17:29, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
- Yay, yay, yay!!! The Reaper 05:05, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
- I'm amazed, sweetheart. Though some of the pictures could be made bigger, excelent work -- one that this page had needed for a long time. It's a yes. -- D. Cello 05:08, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, It is well worked and tidy. --ERUDITO
- Very detailed and complete; not to mention the quotes are particularly fitting. The wording felt off in some sections though, so I made a few adjustments, if that makes a difference for anyone. =GuardDog
Nay
- I'm gonna have t post a strong vote against on his one. Granted, the article is fully sourced and informative and whatnot, but with the way it's written, I'd struggle to vote it for GA status. I mean, most of the subsections are ony one or two paragraphs long (in fact, "Temporary Head of the Order" consists of just one sentence). There's also some spacing issues and grammar problems. ntil these are fixed, I cannot, in good conscience, vote for this article. --Jasca Ducato Council Chamber Assassination record 23:53, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
- I agree with Jasca. The article still needs a revamp, and I'm not going to vote for an article that I'm not comfortable with. The spacing and grammar problems don't bother me, but the incomplete and section-filled biography section does. -- Master Sima Yi 01:31, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
- Hmm, seems my thoughts on the article's problems weren't just my own thing that no one else noticed. Seeing as they are obvious, and that to be honest I probably shouldn't have voted yay in the first place considering my feelings towards it, I'm changing my vote to a nay. -- 'R BlaiddDdraigWolfDragon’s Lair 02:01, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

- Now the images are bunched together, so the artile doesn't look particularly nice. --Jasca Ducato Council Chamber Assassination record 12:58, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
