General Discussion
- Say whatever right here. First question, does everybody like the name, or should we move it? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 23:20, 26 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- Nice name, but it should be moved to HRWiki:Featured Article Selection. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 03:23, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- Good point. Done. — It's dot com 03:57, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
Themed Articles
- How does everybody feel aobut themed articles, such as Halloween Costumes during Halloween week, Decemberween during christmas week, things like that? I think it's a good idea, but I figured I'd throw it out there as a conversation starter. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 04:48, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- I like that idea. «Rob» 11:34, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Weeks 31–35
HRWiki:Featured article for 2005, week 31
How about Teen Girl Squad for this... Likely disadvantaged week? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 23:20, 26 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- Why would this week be disadvantaged? Next Monday is August 1. — It's dot com 02:02, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- Teen Girl Squad is a good idea. This article should be written relatively soon, so when/if the wiki goes down, there will be an article ready to go when the wiki comes back up at 0600 UTC Monday. —BazookaJoe 04:03, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
Concern to be addressed: how long would the week have to progress for Strong Sad's Lament to be considered to have served its proper time as a Featured Article? If the wiki goes down, say, tonight or tomorrow, I'm willing to let SSL go for another week. —BazookaJoe 04:08, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- Oh whups, slight miscalculation on my part. Somehow I was under the impression that NEXT WEEK was the last week of the month. Oops. Well, in any case, I figure if SSL makes it to say... Thursday, it's probably served it's purpose. FDC got less time than that. But in any case (again), what about bumping TGS again in favor of... Dum Dee Dum!
Pros:
- It is an article that will interest others now especially.
- It is an article that will very soon benifit from random user's help.
Cons:
- Disk four isn't quite ready, and might not be by Monday.
- It is currently on the What's New section of the Main Page, which already makes it quite visible.
Ooooor...
- We could wait a few weeks, until disk four is common, well known.
(Note, I don't think this format has to be strictly adhered to or anything, it just seems most useful in this case, as a simple demo, which could possibly be used more in the future. Simple, organized, easy to read. Overall though, I'm rooting for an informal, conversational atmosphere, not as cut and dry as STUFF). ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 04:47, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- I think SBE.exe should be put off at least one week to give us a little time to get some good work done on it. By week 32, it will still be new enough to be timely and also benefit from casual users' help. We should postpone it briefly because who knows whether we'll receive our discs in time, or if we do, whether we'll even be able to edit the wiki. — It's dot com 04:56, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- From the looks of things, we aren't going to make it too far into Wednesday before we go 509 for July. I'd say if we make it to noon we're lucky. -- Tom 05:10, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- I'll get my DVD on Thursday according to the tracking info I have. Jay, do you want to figure a way to divvy up some of this? — It's dot com 05:13, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- If Tom says tomorrow afternoon, I think we may as well just go with TGS, and set it up now, so that it's ready for the 1st, no stress. I have to go to bed right now, because I gotta be up for work in 6 1/2 hours, but if anyone just wants to get it done, be my guest. As long as everybody's happy with TGS. And in light of Tom's new information, that brings BazookaJoe's concerns back into light. Is Wednesday noon long enough for SSL to be up? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 05:24, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
HRWiki:Featured article for 2005, week 32
Perhaps strongbad_email.exe? 'Tis the season. —BazookaJoe 05:32, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- My word. Not an ounce of discussion, even with about two hours and fifteen minutes left in the week. Methinks I will take the liberty of writing something. Anything. —BazookaJoe 21:44, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)
