User:Aeakett/User blog/Stepping Outside of the Featured Article Box

Historically, featured articles have been in the categories of Geography, Magic, Sourcebooks, and Religion. While browsing for articles to add to the featured section, I often come across really cool articles that don't fit into one of the usual categories. As a little experiment, the next month's worth of featured articles are a little bit off the beaten path. From Golarion's Robin Hood, to the dawn of the Age of Lost Omens, these articles have stuck me in one way or another. Maybe November's articles will go back to the usual four-category system, but for now, it's time for something a little different.

Yeah, that's a really fair criticism. The 4606 AR one especially. I'll try and flesh them out a bit this week. —Aeakett (talk) Wed, 23 Sep 2009 22:48:30 +0000

I think these are excellent ideas. The more versatile the main page can appear the better impression we will give potential editors and new visitors.

The only constructive criticism I could offer would be for the intro paragraphs of each of these articles to be expanded so that they give better overviews of the articles and provide a full block of text on the main page when they are copied there. As it stands, both articles will look pretty sparse in the Features Article box on the front page. —Yoda8myhead (talk) Wed, 23 Sep 2009 01:08:27 +0000
