The rules for user nomination are as follows:
 * All voters must have 200 total edits (check here).
 * After a primary category of article has an article chosen to be the Featured Article, any other articles within this category cannot be nominated again for two months.
 * To accurately select an article that editors can review for detail to the very last word, phrasing, and format.
 * Articles can never be renominated after being chosen.
 * In the event of a tie, the former nominated article shall be featured first, and the latter nominated article shall be featured the following month. All voting restrictions for that month will roll over to the following month.
 * On the final day of the month, a staff member will close the voting, and voting for the next month shall begin.
 * Please provide reasoning as to why you think an article is fit to be featured--remember, by featuring an article, you are presenting an article that represents the best work of its category. Whatever is nominated should be a model article for others that are similar to it.
 * Also try to provide variety in your nomination--our goal is to balance out the "demographic" of articles above, not add more character articles.

December 2014

 * Alright. I don't have any strong disagreements. 19:17, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

November 2014

 * Nothing else has my eye this month so I'm okay with that. 20:18, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * If not Under the Sea, then definitely a music article since we're active on the music article front. 17:02, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I'd hold off doing featuring a music track article for next month since we haven't finalised the format for those articles yet. 18:08, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Last-Minute Nomination

 * Alright then, Jiminy's Journal now and a song for December. 16:52, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Jiminy's Journal? Awesome! 02:21, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

October 2014

 * Issue fixed. Cavern of Remembrance is ready to be featured. 09:36, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Voting is now closed, Cavern of Remembrance is our Featured Article for October!

September 2014

 * Any other comments on Genie? While it might not be as expansive or "large" as our other articles, I think it will be okay. 11:25, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Hmm, okay. The issue with the Genie page is really small anyway so it should work fine. 17:44, 30 August 2014 (UTC)

Alrighty. Voting is closed. This month's featured article is Genie! 16:43, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

August 2014
Comments on Sea-salt ice cream? Being one of the most iconic symbols/items in the series, this article features the best of both worlds, falling into both item and story elements. Normally item articles are not featured articles due to their small page length... However, I think from the well written *and long* story sections we're good to go. We should probably throw in some tags just to back certain statements up, such as the interview mentioned in the opening paragraph, but other than that I think the rest of the article is fine. 18:47, 13 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure. 11:59, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Just as a reminder, we have less than two days left on this. 23:46, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure, why not. It's iconic, as you said, and it's well written.
 * Love this stuff. And it describes so much about the KH series, especially Days. 05:03, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Alrighty, then it is decided. Voting closed, this month is Sea-salt ice cream. 23:59, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

July 2014

 * Again, the article is complete for what it has, but the article really don't have too much to offer other than the table. 20:29, 1 June 2014 (UTC)


 * 20 Years? I feel old. Vote for Pride Lands! 06:42, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Pride Lands looks okay to me. Anyone else have some comments? We're getting close to the end of the month. 22:09, 21 June 2014 (UTC)

Alrighty, according to our universal Wiki time of UTC 0, voting is closed. By vote, this month's featured article is Pride Lands. 03:36, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

June 2014

 * Glad to see some activity here. ^_^ Anyways, I'm up for a Keyblade article, but, using what FifteenthMember said earlier, Pumpkinhead isn't much better on information. While the article is indeed complete, the only actual writing occurs in the design section. However, I do like the idea of a Keyblade being a featured article...What do you guys think of Kingdom Key or χ-blade?-- Xion 4  ever  03:36, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

I vote for the Kingdom Key, it's the start of the whole adventure! Plus it has a nice complimentary card article.

EDIT: The only thing that I would have a problem with is that a citation is needed in the coded section of the article and in the opening section. 05:15, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

It seems everyone is on board for Kingdom Key, yes? Alright. Now our focus is to double check and fix any errors/tasks that remain. I have already taken care of the two citations Chain mentioned. Anyone else see any other problems? 03:18, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

May 2014
Since we're low in ideas, and I'm aware that whenever I suggest something, someone else has a better idea (sorry to sound rude), I'm going to re-nominate Pumpkinhead. 15:42, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Seeing as the manga project is what needs most work at the moment, I nominate Calling as mentioned in the roundtable yesterday. It sets the bar for the rest of the chapter articles and has good writing, though it would be better if we had the front/back covers. Alternatively, we could save Calling for later, for when KSM updates the manga infobox. 19:48, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I second that. 09:53, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Manga and Infobox updated, so "Calling" is a go if we choose to use it! 02:20, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Calling has my vote, since we should have some focus on the manga. 03:11, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

April 2014
Do you think Xion could be April? I'm quite surprise that she, along with a few other KH characters, have not been featured yet. There is a lot of info on her, her role in the game is a huge impact on the story, and she was voted "Best New Character" in the 2009 Nintendo Power Awards. Not to mention her debut game, 358/2 Days, won every category it was nominated in the Nintendo Power Awards 2009. Plus Kairi and Naminé are featured too (to those who know Xion's role). So do you think Xion's a good candidate for the featured page? - An anonymous Nobody
 * As much as I'd like to support your vote, I'm afraid it has to be ignored, since you are not a registered user with 200+ edits. But since the wiki does not have much suggestions, it could be selected, though it's up to Xion4ever to decide. 06:34, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
 * We've become a bit lax on rules for featured articles. I still believe we should stick as closely to the rules as possible. However, Uxie makes a valid point in that nominations/voting on this has pretty much vanished. With that in mind, I'm up for casting my vote for Xion. Should someone say we aren't following the rules, I nominate Xion for the previously listed reasons. Also, at the IP: Why not create an account?-- Xion 4  ever  11:21, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Xion wins by default. 15:42, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

March 2014
Actually, what do you think about Wayfinder? Yay item/story plot.-- Xion 4  ever  01:53, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Better than my suggestion. And since it's already March, it's on the main page right now. 04:45, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

February 2014

 * Oh f**k: February 6! I'll just put up Mad Treant as a default win. 05:28, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

January 2014

 * Happy New Year, everyone! AntiForm is the winner! 08:09, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
