The featured episode are articles that represent the best Wikisimpsons has to offer.

So just what makes a featured episode? Well, we've prepared a list just in case someone should ask that, and it is as follows.

Criteria

1. It must have all tabs complete.
2. Follow the Manual of Style.
3. Not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc).
4. Have a reasonable amount of red links; use common sense.
5. Appearance tabs must be in gallery form with many images and few blank images.
6. References tab must have a decent amount of cultural references, trivia and continuity.
7. Credits tab must be complete with all mentioned credits in the correct format.
8. PrevNext template must be in place on all tabs.
9. Quotes must have at least 5 different quotes.
10. Episodes must have a Gag tab.

How to nominate:

1. First, nominate an episode you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
2. Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
3. Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
4. The article is placed on the featured episode list and added to the front page queue.
5. Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 5 supports and no objections, it will be added the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured episode".

How to vote:

1. Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
2. Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
   1. If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
3. As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors.
4. Once all objectors' complaints have been solved (or the article has 5 supports and no objections after at least a week), the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "featured article".

Also remember to add {{Nominatedep}} at the top of the article you are nominating.

Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish

Good looking article. Everything up to date. The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 12:00, 2 March 2012 (EST)

Support (1)

1. Should definitely by featured episode! Also, good work on updating those images. The other ones by the maintenance script were so lousy :P. --Fred (Talk) 12:06, 2 March 2012 (EST)

Comments

• Frederick, those images by the Maintenance Script came from Wikia. We've had them since we moved. Some idiot decided to take photos of the screen with a camera (even though the photos came from a computer screen! We've seen parts of YouTube and even a mouse cursor in images). We still have a few photo images which we are hoping to eradicate. ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 12:11, 2 March 2012 (EST)

• Ah, I see. I always wounded why there was so many poor images :P. Oh, yeah, that's why, because they came from Wikia! Thank you. --Fred (Talk) 12:18, 2 March 2012 (EST)

• Are you saying Wikia has terrible images? | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 14:46, 5 March 2012 (EST)

Admitted, Wikia is bad, but they still have good images. --Wk (talk) 03:59, 1 April 2012 (EDT)

• I'm only saying that because, well, it is Wikia! --Fred (Talk • Contribs.) 10:04, 1 April 2012 (EDT)

1. The References tab needs some sorting out, which I'll be happy to attend to. Once that's done, I'll be on board with featuring the episode. -- Mythigator 03:38, 4 May 2012 (EDT)
2. The Appearance page needs to be alphabetized also. WebkinzMania 07:46, 6 May 2012 (EDT)

Comments

• I have now added the Gags tab so it is featured episode worthy. ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 13:35, 25 June 2012 (EDT)
