[edit] Next Article

If we keep with our three week timetable, it will be time for a new article one week from tomorrow. We've had two characters and an episode so far (Isabelle really shouldn't have been the FA for that long). I was thinking about an actor or one of the "components" of the show. Keep in mind that we should save all of the really good stuff for May when traffic will start to pick up. --The Radio Star 11:58, 21 November 2006 (EST)

I'd like to nominate Natasha Gregson Wagner for the next article. --GeoMike 20:43, 21 November 2006 (EST)

Once again I have to second guess myself on this one. The problem with actors and actresses is that there's very little about the 4400 in any of those articles. Yes, we should have them, but I don't think they're FA material. Regreting that idea... --The Radio Star 20:57, 21 November 2006 (EST)

I'd like to nominate promicin inhibitor for the next article --GeoMike 21:53, 21 November 2006 (EST)

That sounds like a great choice. Let's change the FAs monthly until May. Promicin Inhibitor will become the FA on December 1. --The Radio Star 22:11, 21 November 2006 (EST)

I think some of the bigger actors on the series could be turned into FA quality articles which center around the series, but it would take a lot of work and information from DVDs and Interviews to get them there. Currently I don't think any of the actor articles are at that stage. --The Radio Star 09:48, 22 November 2006 (EST)

• OK, how about the above timeline for Featured Articles. -- Rylandfan 14:54, 1 December 2006 (EST)

Blink (drug) and Starzl Mutation can never be good enough for a FA. --The Radio Star 23:04, 9 February 2007 (EST)

If you want to stick with a Component as a topic to replace one of those two you just mentioned, how about the ripple effect as one then? --GeoMike 08:10, 10 February 2007 (EST)

So much for changing the Featured Article weekly or even monthly. I'm skipping ahead to Tess Doerner - --GeoMike 22:29, 3 August 2007 (EDT)

It was never set in stone. We need another pictures. Diana looks like she's got the flu. --The Radio Star 13:40, 4 August 2007 (EDT)

I was just looking for the first alternate picture of Tess - didn't want to just use the one on her page ~ was going for something different on the featured article :) --GeoMike 11:32, 5 August 2007 (EDT)

[edit] January 2007

Suggestions welcome. Slated on our very tenative shoepolish schedule is an episode from the second season. I feel that Lockdown is far too short for a Featured Article. I really like Wake-Up Call, but I don't know if we should feature it when there aren't many people viewing this site (as a two hour episode, it is naturally longer than most other articles). --The Radio Star 00:00, 30 December 2006 (EST)

How about Suffer The Children? --GeoMike 06:32, 30 December 2006 (EST)

Lockdown is fine but we need to expand it. --The Radio Star 14:28, 31 December 2006 (EST)
