Featured images are images that add significantly to articles, either by illustrating article content particularly well, or being eye-catching to the point where users will want to read its accompanying article. Taking the adage that "a picture is worth a thousand words," the images featured on the Main Page should illustrate a Wiki article in such a way as to add significantly to that article, according to the featured image criteria. All currently featured images can be found in the featured images gallery.

Contents

[edit] Nominating

  • If you believe an image should be featured, please add it below to the "Current nominations" section.
  • Conversely, if you believe that an image should be "unfeatured", add it to the "Nominations for delisting" section.
  • For promotion, if an image is listed here for about seven days with three or more reviewers in support (excluding the nominator(s)) and the consensus is in its favour, it can be added to the list.
  • If necessary, decisions about close candidacies will be made on a case-by-case basis.
  • If you are nominating a previously nominated image, make sure you add link(s) to previous nominations. A historical list of nominations is stored in the archives.

[edit] Image criteria

  • The image is used in an article.
    • Unless the image is used elsewhere in the wiki, it will not be accepted. This is to prevent "orphaned images".
  • The image is taken from RuneScape game client, by wiki users.
    • Non-free images used under the "Fair use" condition should not be nominated.
  • The image file size is less than 100kb.
    • This is to facilitate users with slower connections, and to reduce lag.
    • Larger images may be used, provided the thumbnails are within this limit.
  • The image is moderately sized.
    • The size is recommended to be larger than 75x75, but smaller than 250x250 pixels.
    • For larger images, use a thumbnail which is within these sizes.
  • The image is in compliance with the Images and media policy.

[edit] How to nominate

See the following example: 

<br /><hr /> <!-- Only include this line if posting under an existing nominaton. -->

===[[Example]]===
[[File:Example.png|250x250px|right]]
'''Description:''' Sample description.<br />
'''Reason:''' Sample reason.<br />
'''Expiry:''' {{/cd|~~~~~}}

* '''Support''' - As nominator. ~~~~

{{clear}}

[edit] Note to nominators (READ THIS BEFORE NOMINATING)

  • Describe the image. The description should describe the image itself, and not anything else. Note that the description appears on the Main Page.
  • Be neutral. The description should not be biased, and avoid superlatives, such as "most", "greatest", "best", etc.
  • Be creative. Descriptions beginning with "A picture of..." and "A view of..." are not appropriate and should be avoided.
  • Avoid redundancy. Do not repeat the "title" of the image in the description. Try reading the title and the description together to see how it sounds. For example, Kharidian Desert, a shimmering oasis sounds better than Kharidian Desert, a shimmering oasis in the Kharidian Desert.
  • Use it first. Please make sure the image is used in the mainspace before nominating.

[edit] How to vote

  • Support as nominator
  • Support/Oppose/Neutral - with reasons

  • Oppose - Not much going on and not much to see. Blatently a rip of Robin Hood...The1AndOnlyMikeFinally! 17:59, January 5, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose - It is a bit brown, and there's not much to see. We see that everyday after all. Additionally, we also have another similar picture of Lumbridge in nomination currently (Musician(3)), so I see no need to add a similar image that is lesser in quality.--Yojeez 22:30, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

  • Comment - I renamed this nomination to "Musician(3)" because we had another nomination called Lumbridge, and this is the third time a musician is nominated.   az talk   04:45, December 29, 2009 (UTC)
