Zelda Dungeon Wiki:Featured Article Nominations
Process
An article is nominated here, and the nominator describes why the article is worthy of featuring in short intro which they then sign with their signature. The article should be linked to in the section header. Followed by subsections Support and Oppose. Each section will have a numbered list of people stating briefly why they support or oppose the article. Support and opposition votes count towards a running total, with support votes adding to the total and opposition votes subtracting from it. The initial nomination does not count towards the total. When the article is at positive or negative five points for at least a week, the voting is considered finalized. Anyone can retract their opposition votes if they believe that their concerns about the article have been met.
Rules
- Personal like or dislike of the subject is not valid grounds for approving or disapproving of an article's nomination.
- Each person gets vote once for or against each nomination.
- Sign each vote with your signature using ~~~~ and place it at the end of your vote on the same line, failing to do so breaks automatic numbering.
- Using multiple accounts to vote warrants an immediate three month ban on the main account and permanent ban on the alternates.

BowWow
Although appearing in only Link's Awakening, this article has much information about a minor character. Plenty of references are used within the article and goes into alot of detail about him. With a good layout and tons of information, this page is a good example of what most pages should be like on Zelda Dungeon Wiki. :) Odd300 :) 13:21, December 31, 2012 (CST)

- This page has everything, from trivia, references, lots of info, and even a gallery. This page is excellent. Fused shadows 10:07, January 3, 2013 (CST)
- The page is pretty much complete with everything you could need to know about BowWow. Nicely done. Atticus 10:42, January 6, 2013 (CST)
Oppose
- I don't think it's quite ready yet. My biggest gripe is the nearly consistent use of the future tense (e.g. "the Moblins will then attack Link"). All the necessary information is certainly there, but I actually think it could stand to be condensed a tiny bit and broken up into a few more sections. << Locke(T·C) >> 09:41, January 27, 2013 (CST)

Octorok
Octorok has been a very notable enemy, appearing in every game save Twilight Princess. It's only appropriate that such a notable enemy has a very complete article. While I wouldn't say this article is at its maximum potential, it certainly is far more complete than most of what we have on this Wiki. Zenox 18:30, January 8, 2013 (CST)

Oppose
- While this page does have a decent amount of info, it is still not up to par with what we can do. The formatting is sloppy, the writing is vague, and it doesn't have a nice wiki-looking-like look. Fused shadows 20:49, January 24, 2013 (CST)
- Like what Fused said, the page has a good amount of info. However, it falls short from other great pages from bad formatting, its broad way of writing, and not a good layout/look. :) Odd300 :) 13:32, January 27, 2013 (CST)

Lanayru (Light Spirit)
Lanayru plays a prominent role in Twilight Princess, serving as one of the four major Light Spirits in the game. There are plenty of references, at least three images, and a sufficient amount of information within this article. This page covers details from Lanayru's entrance, to his departure at the end of the game. I believe that this article deserves to be nominated. Atticus 09:55, January 27, 2013 (CST)
