This Wiki doesn't have a good article rank, so i think this system is a good idea. Also, for that reason, if you don't lkike "comprehensive articles" for the name, we can name them "good articles".[[User:TheUnderfaker|Underfaker]] 19:21, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

New to Wikisimpsons? Welcome!
This is not a forum for general discussion about the article's subject. Only talk about edits to the article. If you want to ask questions about the content, ask on Wikisimpsons Answers.

Some talk page guidelines:

Be polite
Assume good faith
No personal attacks
Don't bite the newcomers!

This is a system I have been proposing for a while now. There are 3 main reasons why I think we should have it:

  1. It lets readers know when an article contains all relevant information (Even without the stub tag, how does a reader still know what they are reading is complete? When you go to a Wiki that you are not familiar with, do you know?)
  2. It gives ALL articles something to aspire to. I think this system will give editors the desire to want to flesh-out all articles on the Wiki, not just those that can obtain featured status.
  3. Uniformity among the Wiki - Isn't the point of a Wiki (besides having fun) to get all its subject matter complete?

Those are my reasonings.

Whatever the case, if we're going to have this, we need an icon (similar to Wikipedia's featured-article gold star), to go in the right-hand corner of an article that says it has obtained comprehensive article status. I was thinking a Duff Beer can.

We also need some determining criteria for a CA. I was thinking each project could have their own (I'd decide on Locations) or, the same criteria for all articles.

This Wiki doesn't have a good article rank, so I think this system is a good idea. Also, for that reason, if you don't like "comprehensive articles" for the name, we can name them "good articles".Underfaker 19:21, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
