====[[User:Rosslessness/Safehouse_Hatred|Scout Safehouse Rant]]====

=====Comments (Scout Safehouse Rant)=====
The image under the 404 heading is far too bloody wide. You bastard. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 13:19, 25 August 2012 (BST)

I agree with the opinions expressed but unsure if such a negative article should be featured on the main page. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>16:43, 25 August 2012 (UTC)</sub>
:Concur. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 05:22, 26 August 2012 (BST)

Too much raging against the machine.-[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 23:02, 25 August 2012 (BST)

Not for it. While I agree with everything it says, I would feel like an ass for putting something on the front page that more or less calls out something the game's creator made as being worthless. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:20, 26 August 2012 (BST)

Fair enough. I'm a great fan of [[:Category:WikiRantings]]. It's a great little set, of things. I'll think of another way of promoting it. In the meantime I've fixed up the page so mis and others can view it in low res, and will have a look at Vapors ideas on the level of inefficiency. Do we even have a scout safehouse page? --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  17:40, 26 August 2012 (BST)

=====Comments (Types of Museums)=====
'''Against''' the kind of page that could really do with being sexed up. Also, I think it should include unique museum dedicated to duke garland. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  21:16, 23 August 2012 (BST)

'''Also against''' A dry page overall. A nice jazzed up page on building types that includes a link here might be worth a look if there is not already one in this category. --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Friday, 24 August 2012</sub>

Agree with the others. It needs some descriptions from each, maybe a little flavor as well. And, really, exhaustive lists like these are not worth featuring unless they are of obvious importance or usefulness. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:02, 24 August 2012 (BST)

This has a "what the hell is this?" factor to it that is undesirable in Featured Articles. The worth or value of an FA should be apparent. I see none here, though it is a different sort of novelty page than we usually see. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 16:49, 24 August 2012 (BST)

====[[Downe Towers]]====
Flavorful location article. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 20:53, 23 August 2012 (BST)

Totally '''Meh''' --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  00:45, 24 August 2012 (BST)

Not as interesting as some of the others. Not feeling it. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 01:12, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I really just odnt like the idea of locations in general, particularly when the most updated ones with flavour havent been touched in a year and contain a bunch of outdated data {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 03:05, 24 August 2012 (BST)

Just not feeling it, to be honest. Not awesome enough. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:34, 24 August 2012 (BST)

Nah. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 02:58, 24 August 2012 (BST)

The only thing I hate more than the location pages are the skill pages. And I really hate skill pages.-[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 03:43, 24 August 2012 (BST)

'''Against''' Needs formatting. Big Time.--[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  22:11, 23 August 2012 (BST)

It's a neat idea (and I was even the one who ended up reporting it and getting it fixed the most recent time it was "fixed"), but that page is poorly written and needs formatting. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:30, 24 August 2012 (BST)

Its irrevelevant now. A nice companion to [[RNG]] for historical purpose. Maybe merge relevant info into [[RNG]]. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>00:59, 24 August 2012 (UTC)</sub>

'''Against''' Prefer possible causes....--[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  22:11, 23 August 2012 (BST)

It really needs to be broken up into some subheadings still, and aligning some of those pics on the left would help break it up visually too. I may have more things later. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:31, 24 August 2012 (BST)

'''No''' - horrible blocks of paragraphs, doesn't have nice links to other parts of the wiki {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 02:55, 24 August 2012 (BST)

====[[Clothes]]====
Complete & informative, with some helpful images. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 20:53, 23 August 2012 (BST)

=====Comments (Clothes)=====
Informative, yes. Also, very tedious. I'd love a more summarized version of that page. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:38, 24 August 2012 (BST)

There must be a better way of doing this. Also Monroeville had a few specific items not mentioned, for [[Video Camera]]s. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  00:43, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I agree that this page has some faults and is not complete or easy to navigate. If the "Category:Items" page were not so ugly, I might suggest it here instead. It has a link to clothes and covers the other cities. It serves as a useful hub. Problem is I cannot abide blue on blue and centered. Other problem is that, while useful, it is not interesting.--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Friday, 24 August 2012</sub>

Add capitals to that list of colours. Other than that, not bad, wouldn't be against it. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 03:03, 24 August 2012 (BST)

<s>'''Yes'''</s> For my money, one of the more useful pages on the wiki. Wish more people would use it.--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Friday, 24 August 2012</sub>

[[Guides:The Zombie Lexicon]] is already featured. Do we need both? The dictionary and [[Zamgrh]] are both linked at the top of the article. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>02:07, 24 August 2012 (UTC)</sub>

:Links are prominent. [[Guides:The Zombie Lexicon]] is a lot less user friendly in my mind than either of the other two pages and might dissuade some from getting interested in death rattle, but it is already featured. I withdraw my '''yes'''--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Friday, 24 August 2012</sub>
::The dictionary is definitely a better reference and learning tool. Actually I think the Lexicon should be updated with more prominent links to the dictionary. Not long ago, the dictionary was updated pretty regularly. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>02:25, 24 August 2012 (UTC)</sub>

Not in favor. It's too exhaustive for its own good. It's only useful as a reference for looking up a word you heard, not for casual perusal, simply due to its length. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 16:16, 24 August 2012 (BST)

====[[Sacred Ground Policy]]====
One of the most well-known Survivor "policies". {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 20:53, 23 August 2012 (BST)

=====Comments (Sacred Ground Policy)=====
It's probably the most significant survivor policy, but the page is mostly a list of names, and the rest merely declares cemeteries to be RPs. Not particularly interesting. --{{User:A Helpful Little Gnome/Sig}} 04:18, 24 August 2012 (BST)
:Meh. Didn't amazing come up with this? He can rewrite it. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  10:45, 24 August 2012 (BST)
:I'm with AHLG. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 16:53, 24 August 2012 (BST)
Indeed, I came up with it, so we need to figure out why it can't be featured. Seems we have a good start above. BAZOOM. -- <span style="font-size: 10px; line-height: 10px; font-family: verdana; font-weight: bold; color: darkred;">&trade; & &copy; [[User:Amazing|Amazing]], [[Hell Rising|INC]].

:I can tell you why I am against it. Owing to the importance of the tactic, it is a good choice for featured status, but the page itself has only a couple sentences of value to a standard user. As Gnome suggests, the list is bulky and unnecessary. I would suggest moving it off page and linking to it. The rest of the text on the page needs an overhaul. It is clear that survivors are doing this so take it out of the hypothetical and just describe the tactic as it exists. What does it do, why does it work, what problems does it have, etc. Instead of language like "and ya know if a rotter is in there, you could shoot him" you explain that rotter zombies often strive to counter this tactic by standing in cemeteries. Keep it 3rd person non POV but still interesting. Oh and moar pictures: a zombie waiting in a cemetery, a survivor with a syringe lurking behind a gravestone, a bunch of zombies forming an orderly line, etc. If these things change, I would be all for this page being featured personally. --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Monday, 27 August 2012</sub>
::On the contrary, the page needs no overhaul. It is perfect in that it's a delivery system for a simple concept, and it delivers that clearly and briefly. The list may be considered bulky, but that's only because it's incredibly huge - which is a mark in FAVOR of featureing it, not against. Listing what problems it has? Really? "Here's a policy, please adhere to it, also here are the reasons not to." No way, sorry. Moar pictures, moar text, moar this, moar that... I don't see that working out. All it would do is muddy up the clear and direct message of the page. It's like changing "BUY COKE" to "You may wish to purchase coca-cola (image) because you might like its taste (image) but please note it is actually not healthy to drink it (image) so please drink in moderation. (image) Also our company has secretly murdered union supporters in the third world nations whose work force we exploit.

Totally biased, but the group page is updated more often and more keeping in tone with what the Burch is really like. In some ways the group page is a better descriptor of the Burch than the location page is. [[User:Jesussante|Jesus Sante]] <sup>[[CFT]]</sup> 03:50, 25 August 2012 (BST)

That said, I'm kind of uncomfortable with featuring the main page of any group that's still active, since that seems like pretty close to free and unbalanced main-page advertising.

::Such as if I were to do a write up of [[User:Aichon/Sandbox/Demo7|my experimental map template]]? It was actually inspired by what you did with your page and your efforts to simplify things for people, but I tried to make things even simpler by hiding away as much code as possible. As you can see, particularly if you look at the code for the demo, it's fairly trivial to do rather complicated things with it with very little need to known CSS or more advanced stuff. One of these days I need to get around to seeing whether or not it's finished and then doing some basic documentation, but I have no plans to do something as nicely written and detailed as what you did. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 06:17, 24 August 2012 (BST)
:::Aye, that would be a good inclusion. There are many different types of maps. A good guide on some of the more popular types like custom suburb maps would be good. From tiny maps like Aichon's to sprawling city maps or maps that use danger reports. People like to make maps. Let's provide a good guide. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>06:32, 24 August 2012 (UTC)</sub>
::::Quick note: my map actually isn't tiny. The demo of it just happens to be tiny since I was demoing a minimap. I tried to make The One Map To Rule Them All, so it can be resized, stylized, and changed around pretty much any way you would want with a minimal amount of wikicode knowledge, so long as you need a 10x10 map. As I said, I was trying to reduce complexity for the end user, so part of that meant eliminating the need to have different maps for different things.
::::Regarding sprawling city maps that user danger reports, Peralta is already working on that after I figured out how to make the code for it work, and that is not the sort of thing you need to bother explaining, since there is only about one way that it can even possibly work without breaking the page. Once someone finishes it, there won't be a need to ever do it again, since it can't be customized or changed at all. That's the sort of thing you show people and link, but don't bother explaining, since they will never have a need to do it themselves. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:18, 24 August 2012 (BST)

To me, this comes across more as an observation, rather than an article. It would be nice if the larger islands were fleshed out more, perhaps with a map for each one showing where they are. I'd keep the larger Malton one but dump the DS levels and highlight the islands a little more. The map also has an offset problem. -[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 17:24, 24 August 2012 (BST)

====[[Big Bash 3]]====
Though I am ridiculously biased, I did think they were well executed pages with a consistent and unique voice, both in terms of how they were designed as well as how they were written. There's a nice humor throughout with the little blurbs at the top of each page, and behind the scenes there are a lot of really cool technical things going on that automated most of the heavy lifting for the horde tracking and the like. It's not historical, perhaps, but it may be an example of interesting design and writing. If nothing else, it'll help us figure out what is or isn't FA worthy. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:40, 24 August 2012 (BST)

=====Comments (Big Bash 3)=====
It's a beautiful page, with a one-of-a-kind level of coding as far as that wiki goes. More importantly, it revolves around ''the'' major event of 2010. That being said, [[Category_talk:Historical_Groups/FailedArchive#Big_Bash_3|it failed to get recognized as a historical group]] (which IMHO it should have been recognized as). I'm on the fence about it and open to persuasion either way. --'''<span style="font-family:monospace; background-color:#222222">[[User:Spiderzed|<span style="color:Lime"> Spiderzed</span>]][[User talk:Spiderzed|<span style="color:Lime">█ </span>]]</span>''' 19:54, 24 August 2012 (BST)

That's my take. We now have some good test cases for this section: two very prominent group pages, a couple of interesting, technical and unique subpages, and a fiction/news media conglomerate, which should give us a lot if information on what people want. As far as BB3, I think it is an absolutely beautiful page, both from design as well as content. It should also be historical (IMO). The only thing that makes me hesitate slightly is I wonder if we should have a BB overview one that links to the other three ones?-[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 20:00, 24 August 2012 (BST)

Glad that this was put forward. It was on my short list of groups to nominate. I like what Aichon is doing with the Big Bash overview.

I don't see how this page has a leg to stand on in light of the other lists we've already rejected. [[Islands]] not only had better formatting of the actual content (significantly more practical content, I'll add), it also had more details for each entry while keeping to a shorter length so that it never grew burdensome to read. On the other end, [[Clothes]] and [[Guides:kiZombie-English_Dictionary]] were more exhaustive lists than ALiM, while also holding more details for each entry and maintaining better formatting of the content. By any measure they were better lists, yet all three of those were correctly rejected, so even if Vapor were to strike me about the head enough times to cause brain damage sufficient for me to love dick jokes, I'd still reject it on the basis that it's not even as good as the other lists that we rejected. It may be a fun list, but it's not a good one.

But if I'm going to get overruled on this, then ''at least'' clean the page up, since that alone should exclude it from consideration. The flagbox pointing to its discussion page is entirely unnecessary, the tinyurl link has no purpose, the navigation box should be scaled way down, and the page consists of a massive set of lists that could really use some sort of formatting (e.g. use sortable wikitables like [[Islands]] or [[UDWiki:Administration/Sysop_Check|Sysop Check]]). At least hold the page to the same standard applied elsewhere, rather than letting it in without tidying it up simply because it's a popular page. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:01, 5 September 2012 (BST)
:^Them words. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 22:06, 5 September 2012 (BST)
::I don't think the formatting is that bad. The key at the top explains that the lolcations either italicized, bolded or starred have descriptions written about them on the locations page so its uneccesary to describe each lolcation in the lists. And really, that's where ALiM is set apart from those other articles you mentioned. It was this big project and added a whole bunch of flavor all over the place by friendly 2Cool representatives. [[Islands]] and [[Clothes]] are dull articles dressed up to seem interesting. [[Guides:kiZombie-English Dictionary]] was rejected because the Zombie Lexicon is already featured. Basically, because of the extent of ALiM and the fact that so much work went into it it gets a lot of bonus points in the "Generally Awesome" category from me while those others were just meh.
::As for your specific formatting suggestions, link to the discussion page at the top is there because new lolcations are voted there. I wouldn't say tinyurls are pointless on pages like these because tinyurls are used for grafitti purposes.

Not big on the title but I like this one more than [[Malton Incident]]. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>05:24, 24 August 2012 (UTC)</sub>

It needs a lot of cleaning up and formatting before it'd be ready. Also, a proper introduction. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 16:52, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I kind like this one, both from a fiction/backstory standpoint and the connection to an in-game item (newspapers).-[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 18:26, 24 August 2012 (BST)

=====Comments (Firearms)=====
Not against it. It's exacrly what you expect and not ugly either. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}} 03:08, 24 August 2012 (BST)

'''Against''' It's not good, it's just functional. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  10:31, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I'm for it. It's good, functional, laid out very well, and has all the information you could want. Yes, it's mostly just data, but I think this is one of the few examples of a data-heavy page being done well. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 15:44, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I hate the page design, and it's functional as Ross says. It really should be merged with the other weapon articles and resubmitted.-[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 17:52, 24 August 2012 (BST)

'''No''' but sure if that horrid blue was gone. --[[Image:Kirsty_Cotton_Header.png|60px|Open the Box|link=User:Kirsty_cotton]] <sub>[[Organization_XIII|<span style="color: grey">Org XIII</span>]]</sub> <sup>[[User:Kirsty_cotton/alts|<span style="color: blue">Alts</span>]]</sup> 04:22, 9 September 2012 (BST)

'''Nope''' See my comments on firearms. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  10:40, 24 August 2012 (BST)

Can you tell I'm running out of descriptions for these nominations? {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 20:53, 23 August 2012 (BST)

Design is pretty ugly and is hard to read. Not very interesting.-[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 03:52, 24 August 2012 (BST)

See Firearms comment. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  10:46, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I'm for it. See comments for firearms above. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:03, 24 August 2012 (BST)

'''For''', nice pagedesign and generally quite easy to understand. [[User:Peralta|-- Johnny Twotoes]] 03:46, 9 September 2012 (BST)

Sorry, gonna say no. Ugly and just feels difficult to read. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/a}} 04:15, 9 September 2012 (BST)

=====Comments (ZomboTracker)=====
'''Against''' its a fun page, but the super live trackers haven't been updated in two years. Would need to imply some bits are historic. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|'''WHO????''']]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  21:15, 23 August 2012 (BST)
:As Ross. We should update it; I actually like it more for its technical features, both with the wiki switching codes used for the tabs and the maps showing targets and number of times hit as well as horde paths.  -[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 02:19, 24 August 2012 (BST)

I'm for it. Regardless of if it's been updated, it's a unique page that deserves to be featured. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:06, 24 August 2012 (BST)
