Voting Regulations
  1. Voting is currently open to all registered users.
  2. All votes must be signed with signatures (type four tildes (~~~~.)) Unsigned votes are automatically negated, regardless of any points made.
  3. An article will become automatically featured if it receives five (5) valid votes to support it and two (2) days have passed since the nomination.
  4. After two (2) weeks of being nominated, an article will be featured if it does not have more opposition than support. (this means a tie or zero votes will still result in a feature)
  5. An article will fail to become featured if it receives five (5) valid oppositions.
  6. There may be no more than six (6) nominated articles at one time. Do not add any more than this.
  7. The editor who puts the article up for nomination may not vote on it.
  8. Please add all oppositions/supports on a new line beginning with a number/pound/hash sign (#) to automatically create an alphanumeric list.
  9. Staff members reserve the right to negate any votes without notification of the voter if they are found to be in violation of any of these rules or if suspected of trolling.
Nomination Cooldown
Once an article has attained featured status, a total of thirty (30) days must pass before it can be nominated for unfeaturement.

King Dedede's Theme (October 5th, 2021 - October 19th, 2021)

This article was abandoned for quite a bit, but now it's looking pretty good, and the theme itself definitely deserves the spotlight. Having another music page featured would also be nice. I believe all appropriate themes and information has been added, though if anyone wants to add more musical details, feel free.

What do you guys think? -- Jellytost♡ (talk) 00:46, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

Support
Oppose
Neutral

I don't want to oppose specifically, since the page is very good, but I was checking it, and I have the following remarks before I would consider it for featurement:

  • The History of Dedede clip in the page needs to specifically have the section that uses Dedede's theme, right now the section mostly has other themes
  • Mentions of "The Masked King" need to be removed; if a page isn't created yet, perhaps move it to a sandbox for now (the initial mention in the KSSU section is fine, I would just not mention it in other games after, and leave that for the page's theme)

It would also be worth having many people verify if we didn't miss any use of Dedede's theme, as it's one of the most iconic Kirby themes and maybe we missed it somewhere. - Gigi (talk • edits) 01:10, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
