The new mode in development. It has a lot of great information on the mode, powerups, and others. Plus, we really need to change the Featured Article.

I think that it's time Scout was added to the featured articles rotation. Probably not a very contentious suggestion overall, but I'm just going to outline everything quickly so that we're properly following the guidelines here. I'd also be curious to see if there's anything in particular others wanted to pinpoint, before it is potentially accepted into the rotation.

i nominate tc_hydro a well written article explaining to the best of it's ability what this mode is about using video pictures and well organized sections on top of that the map's unique well thought out game mode needs to be recognized[[User:Ares5566|Ares5566]] 02:51, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
+
Will outline some similar info to the most recent nomination (made for Pyro), since it's largely relevant here as well. Obviously the nine classes of TF2 are hugely important articles to this wiki, and should be some of our most forward-facing pages when users land on the Main page. There are only two classes not currently in the featured rotation - Scout and Demoman. With regards to the featured pages for other classes:
−
: {{c|Support}} I also feel it is a substantial and well written articles. It has plenty of pictures and videos, and it is intricate without being hard to read.[[User:Kevschow|Kevschow]] 02:25, 8 December 2010 (UTC)(I'd swear i had the tildes. Sorry)
 
−
: {{c|Support}} I've always liked the map, and it would be good to help users to find new things to try out. Also, to the user above, please mark your posts with four tildes before posting. [[User:Renaman|Renaman]] 14:02, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

: {{c|Support}} One of the best maps in the game. High quality, and definitely deserves to be featured. [[User:Mortis|Mortis]] 14:09, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

* The Scout article follows the same format and contains all the comprehensive information one would expect.

== [[Walkway]] ==
+
* It's well written, properly styled and very much a stable page.

I'd like to bring tr_walkway to the light. I think it would be a nice article to feature on the front page to users who are curious about TF2. It could use some more information, but it's a consideration. [[User:TechnetiumG|TechnetiumG]] 23:20, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
+
* It has all the expected referential and informational media, which has been used in an appropriate manner.
−
:{{C|oppose}}: The article itself doesn't really offer any interesting information that deserves to be highlighted. This is probably because there really isn't a whole lot to Walkway, other than it being a community-made training map. I think that the official blog highlight was enough. --[[User:Ten19|Ten19]] 05:44, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

:I believe the last nomination for Scout was in 2014 (which I found [[Team_Fortress_Wiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Scout|here]] in Archive 5.

Considering that the majority of TF2 players haven't even heard of Team Fortress Classic, why not feature it? While the article IS a little short, it is an interesting read. --[[User:Stevoisiak|Stevoisiak]] 21:28, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Nominating this page separately to Scout just in case opinions differ, but will largely be following the same line of reasoning.
  
−
::{{C|Support}} I was going to nominate the [[Main Page (Classic)]] when the entire classic became a little more complete. But, I suppose that TFC would make a great page also, to show where the TF2 empire came from.

Demoman is probably also overdue to be added to the featured articles rotation.

There does exist a prior '''Featured article candidate''' template on the talk page. Was not able to determine how long ago this was added, but judging by the archives I'd say it's probably due for a discussion as well. Let me know if there's anything within the article that could potentially be cleaned up or expanded, I'd be more than happy to add to the improvement effort if needed.

The Eureka Effect is a very interesting weapon for the Engineer with a very useful caracteristic: the ability to teleport either to your base or your exit teleporter. Modifing, at least a little bit, the playstyle of the Engi and given the player more mobility and different ways to play with.

I'd like to make the case that Bumper Cars should be a Featured Article after {{diff|3805312|the overhaul}} from [[User:Kibblekip|Kibblekip]]. This turned from a very small page to a much bigger and well-written article that covers its functionality extensively, as well as covering minor things like the HUD, achievements, the associated spells, and a fun quote. The fun quote is not necessarily relevant, I just like Merasmus a lot. I believe this page, although small, should become a featured article.

Latest revision as of 15:10, 11 September 2024

Featured articles

Featured articles exemplify some of the best-written and most informational articles on Team Fortress Wiki. Featured articles must adhere to the featured article criteria below.

Featured articles are determined and rotated by the staff.

Criteria

  1. A featured article is—
    • informative: it should contain both helpful and useful information;
    • comprehensive: it should be complete, without omission of major facts or details;
    • accurate: it should be factually accurate, and sourced where appropriate.
  2. It should also be—
    • well-written: the prose of the article is engaging, and of a professional standard;
    • properly styled: the article should follow all conventions in the Style guide;
    • stable: the article should not be currently undergoing any major revisions or edit wars;
    • of appropriate length: the article should stay focused on the main topic without going into unnecessary detail.
  3. Its use of media should be—
    • referential: images should be used as a source of reference;
    • to clarify: images should be used to help illustrate a point;
    • informational: images should be used to display additional information.
    • Media used on a featured article must be appropriately licensed and include source information on the file description page.
  4. A featured article must also be—
    • well-connected:
      • by linking to all relevant articles;
      • by linking to reliable outside sources where appropriate.

Mannpower

The new mode in development. It has a lot of great information on the mode, powerups, and others. Plus, we really need to change the Featured Article. It's been stuck on "Mann vs Machine" for so long. --Dr. Scaphandre (talk) 17:08, 23 June 2015 (PDT)

Scout

I think that it's time Scout was added to the featured articles rotation. Probably not a very contentious suggestion overall, but I'm just going to outline everything quickly so that we're properly following the guidelines here. I'd also be curious to see if there's anything in particular others wanted to pinpoint, before it is potentially accepted into the rotation.

Will outline some similar info to the most recent nomination (made for Pyro), since it's largely relevant here as well. Obviously the nine classes of TF2 are hugely important articles to this wiki, and should be some of our most forward-facing pages when users land on the Main page. There are only two classes not currently in the featured rotation - Scout and Demoman. With regards to the featured pages for other classes:

  • The Scout article follows the same format and contains all the comprehensive information one would expect.
  • It's well written, properly styled and very much a stable page.
  • It has all the expected referential and informational media, which has been used in an appropriate manner.
  • And finally, it's well-linked to various categories and pages around the wiki.

Let me know if there's anything within the article that could potentially be cleaned up or expanded, I'd be more than happy to add to the improvement effort if needed. Epsilonal (talk) 07:47, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

I believe the last nomination for Scout was in 2014 (which I found here in Archive 5. Don't know if it just flew under the radar, but I did see that the Featured article candidate template remains on its talk page. Not sure how long it has been there for, so I figured a discussion would be useful here. Epsilonal (talk) 07:51, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Demoman

Nominating this page separately to Scout just in case opinions differ, but will largely be following the same line of reasoning.

Demoman is probably also overdue to be added to the featured articles rotation. Probably not a very contentious suggestion overall, but I'm just going to outline everything quickly so that we're properly following the guidelines here. I'd also be curious to see if there's anything in particular others wanted to pinpoint, before it is potentially accepted into the rotation.

Will outline some similar info to the most recent nomination (made for Pyro), since it's largely relevant here as well. Obviously the nine classes of TF2 are hugely important articles to this wiki, and should be some of our most forward-facing pages when users land on the Main page. There are only two classes not currently in the featured rotation - Scout and Demoman. With regards to the featured pages for other classes:

  • The Demoman article follows the same format and contains all the comprehensive information one would expect.
  • It's well written, properly styled and very much a stable page.
  • It has all the expected referential and informational media, which has been used in an appropriate manner.
  • And finally, it's well-linked to various categories and pages around the wiki.

There does exist a prior Featured article candidate template on the talk page. Was not able to determine how long ago this was added, but judging by the archives I'd say it's probably due for a discussion as well. Let me know if there's anything within the article that could potentially be cleaned up or expanded, I'd be more than happy to add to the improvement effort if needed.

Eureka Effect

The Eureka Effect is a very interesting weapon for the Engineer with a very useful caracteristic: the ability to teleport either to your base or your exit teleporter. Modifing, at least a little bit, the playstyle of the Engi and given the player more mobility and different ways to play with.

My reasons to nominate this article are the following:

  • The article is well written
  • Gives players useful information about the weapon
  • The media used is very informative and is properly made, as expected
  • Introduce the weapon to newer players

With nothing more to say, I would like to see this article featured on the front page since is a very well written article and the weapons itself is cool and interesting to use, even tho I don't play Engineer that much. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by BIOS (talk) • (contribs) 21:56 CEST, 30 November 2023

Bumper Cars

I'd like to make the case that Bumper Cars should be a Featured Article after the overhaul from Kibblekip. This turned from a very small page to a much bigger and well-written article that covers its functionality extensively, as well as covering minor things like the HUD, achievements, the associated spells, and a fun quote. The fun quote is not necessarily relevant, I just like Merasmus a lot. I believe this page, although small, should become a featured article.

Unfortunately, I can't put {{Featured article candidate}} on it due to the glorious Flow talk page system we all love so much.

Pictogram plus.png Support I agree, add those bumper cars on there!
Cheddar • Talk • Contribs 14:39, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Pictogram minus.png Oppose The Bumper Cars page sorta just feels like Magic Spells but covers less information. I'd rather feature Magic Spells than Bumper Cars. That's just my opinion though. Mediarch User Mediarch PFP.png ♥ Talk ♥ My Edits 19:02, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Pictogram neutral.png Neutral It feels somewhat awkward of me to comment on given I did a lot of the overhaul, especially given I don't have much of value to add anyway, but I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to it being featured. I'm in agreement though that it may be better to feature the Magic spells page instead (or as well as) due to the shared information between them.
Kibblekip T | C 00:44, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
Pictogram info.png On hold. While the page is surely in a better state, I wouldn't say it's outstanding (half the page is shared with the Magic Spells article). It could use some images of the classes, maybe even a 3D view or video showcasing the controllers/movement/spells. — Tark 03:01, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
I'd be in support of adding Bumper Cars to the video demonstration project page potentially, and create a demonstration video to show off the bumper cars and the mechanics/spells used by them? I'm unsure if the spells portion would conflict with the existing demonstration for the Spellbook Magazine, but it seems that demonstration does not include bumper car spells anyway. As mentioned too, a 3D-view of the bumper cars would certainly be a nice-to-have as well (images with the classes would be good for showing the different body proportions).
