The Featured Article is a spot on the mainpage to show our best articles. A new one appears every month, but they are voted on here. The article with the highest vote difference by the end of the month becomes the featured article. The featured article on the main page is updated on the 29 of that particular month, and the introductory text that goes in the main page slot should also go in the archive. Once an article is chosen to be a featured article, it cannot be nominated again. A template on the page entitled Template:FA indicates it has already been Featured. Template:FA Nominee is used for nominated articles.
Criteria
Articles should only be nominated if they are longer than 3000 bytes.
Articles lower than this byte count can also be nominated, but only if they are relevant to the timeline of Club Penguin (if the article is about a party that was opened this month, then it could be nominated), or if they are very well written. In fact, if the article cannot be made much longer (if it is an item article, but is exceptionally detailed or longer than most item articles) but is still a worthy example of good editing, then it can be nominated.
Nomination guidelines
Nominator Notice: When nominating an article, you should make a Level 2 Section with its name. A link should be in the title of the section as well. This shows you what you need to type in. Please fill in the gaps correctly.
==<Article name as a link> (0)== Nominated by <your name>. ===For (0)=== ===Against (0)=== ===Comments ===
Voters Notice: Please read the voting policy thoroughly before you vote.
You must vote in either "For" or "Against". If you vote in for, you have to sign underneath the "For" heading. To do this you have to type this in:
#~~~~
You may also leave a comment no longer than a sentence when you sign. Any longer and you have to leave it in the "Comments" section.
After you have signed it, you must change the number in the brackets up by 1. (e.g. if it was at 3, it means 3 people have already signed it. Change it to 4 when you sign it.) This is also the same with the number by their name. If you vote for, you must also increase the number beside his name by 1.
Please remember to use "#" instead of the usual "*", because it numbers the votes making it easier to count them.
You can also remove your vote. If in any case you change your mind, do not remove your vote completely, just strike it out and move it to the back of the list. Remember to use an asterisk when moving it to the back of list, as it would not show up as a numbered point.

- Green Ninja just created this article yesterday. I think it is too new to win FAOTM. -- S h u r o w 05:38, January 1, 2013 (UTC)
- It's ok, if it has enough info.
- I kinda feel users ofen nominate party articles because they like the party, with no connection to the article's quality :P This article is mostly based dinosaurs and not the feature itself. Penguin-Pal (talk) 17:19, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

- A Great Article for Featured Article of the Month.
- Not enough information yet. Superstar Ninja
- Not good enough quality. Has some weird information too. Jjoeyxx, Famous Paleontologist!
- User:Historicalcp, I think there has been enough Party articles that they won for now...I might change my mind though...
- Why I don't think it should be the featured article for the next month? This is because last month we already have a featured article last month,and we don't want another one again. Another reason,the party page should not be nominated because the party had not start. It may not be the best article. As I said in the previous nomination in Holiday Party,Featured Article of the month need to be the best ones with complete information. Yonghoe2923 (talk) 09:26, January 7, 2013 (UTC)
- It doesn't matter the type of article (ex. Party, Transformation, etc) It matters about the quality of the article.

- It is a well-done article, it contains much information about it, and of the bugs and stuff? I am going to update it, but still, it is a great article which is the reason why it should win for FA ~~User:Historicalcp~~
- What does that have to do with January 2013?
- The other articles aren't complete, so I think this one s the best page.
- User:Historicalcp @Batreeqah, it can be nominated any article it can, it doesn't care which subject is it.
- I know.
