KHWiki:Votes for featured media/2015

Featured Media is a place to show the artwork, images, and sounds that make this wiki an interesting and engaging experience for visitors. It will also encourage wiki members to improve the quality of existing works. The rules and guidelines are a work-in-progress; if you have suggestions, please leave them on the Talk Page.

Nomination Guidelines
So, what makes a bit of media eligible for nomination? Here are the guidelines:


 * The media should represent and support the article or articles it appears in. A full-body shot focusing on one character is better than a blurry screen capture where the character is in the image, but not the focus, for example. Orphan media not linked to an article or non-Kingdom Hearts materials that appears on User pages is not eligible.
 * The media should be appropriately high-quality. Images should be of good resolution with minimal or no artifacting, but not absurdly large. Sound clips should be clear and easy to hear, but not excessively long.
 * The image must not bear or contain any watermarks, website labels, etc.
 * The media, like all things on the wiki, should be from official or officially-verified sources. No fan art, no matter how awesome.
 * The media nominated must be hosted in this wiki. Items hosted elsewhere, such as YouTube clips, are ineligible.
 * The media must meet guidelines for fair-use. A thirty-second sample of "Simple and Clean" is fine; the entire song uploaded to the wiki is not.

Nomination Process
You have something that meets the above rules, so now what? Well, on the first day of the month, post a link to your nominated media and sign your nomination with ~ ! Remember, though, only one nomination per user per month! Pretty easy, right?

There is one more rule to keep this from becoming one big popularity contest. After the winning media is announced, any media in that category becomes ineligible for nominations for the next two months. For example, the image of an Angel Star was the selected media for October, 2008. That means that for the next two voting cycles in November and December, images from the Heartless Category were ineligible for nomination and would be dismissed if suggested. Likewise, the picture of Ansem, Seeker of Darkness would have also been ineligible, even though he appears in the Character category as well. Images with more than one category will only have one of them "blocked" to make sure there is a fair selection of categories available. There will always be two categories which images cannot be nominated from; they are listed at the top of the nomination block.

The category or categories are also considered "locked-in" from the beginning of the month, so don't bother changing them to get around the rules. Trying to edit media categories to suit your whims will only attract the wrath of staff and admins, and certainly get your nomination privileges revoked.

Voting
Editors have one vote; they must put their vote and signature, ( ~ ) underneath the nominee of their choice. Those who nominated media can have their nomination counted as their vote and do not need to post again; if they want to change, they simply need to sign under another nominee and their vote will be moved.

In the event of ties, we will hold tiebreakers beginning on the 20th of the month.

On the last day of the month, votes will be tallied, and the winner will become the next Featured Media!

Note: It should go without saying, but it is extremely unethical to be canvassing for votes for this forum. If evidence is found that you've been trying to taint the process, the staff will de-nominate the targeted media, and may bar you from voting for the next round.

November 2011

 * Pot Lid What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving than the traditional baking supplies? To those who don't celebrate Thanksgiving, then here's to the traditional gaining of pounds we all encounter during the holiday season. --- Xion 4  ever  17:48, 6 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Stirring Ladle Same reason as before. Cooking utensils compel you!-- Xion 4  ever  17:48, 6 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix Title Screen (Art) A really pretty piece of artwork displaying Sora and Roxas on the Twilight Town clocktower. -- 21:34, 10 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Kingdom Hearts 3D Promotional Poster This is a really cool piece of artwork from TGS that I think is worth displaying. -- 21:34, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 22:13, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Yes. 15:10, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Destati (Drammatica) A really great song that I think is worth displaying. -- 21:34, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) One of the best in the series. 22:05, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) There is a reason for this to be used in the trailers, it is awesome 22:13, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Yes. 15:10, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Trinity Limit Well since we're closing in on the last 3 months of the year, trinity limit activate! (Since we're reaching 3 (trinity) and the end (limit) of the year). And as the .gif depicts, clearing current Heartless and making passage to the new year. 15:10, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

October 2011

 * Mysterious Man - 13:39, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 1)  13:53, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 2)  00:52, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) -- 01:39, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 01:45, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * World of Nothingness - 13:39, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) I was going to vote for this, but.. oh well. 13:53, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 00:54, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) -- 01:39, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Final Mix Thresholder - 13:39, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Roxas's Station of Awakening -- 01:39, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

September 2011

 * Armor of the Master - Perhaps the ultimate Keyblade Armor, in terms of appearance.  13:41, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 14:45, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Traverse Town Logo - Good old Traverse Town. Perhaps one of the most memory stirring world logos of all.   13:41, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Save the King+ - God save the king, especially since it has an awesome Final Mix coloration.  13:41, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 14:45, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 05:47, 2 August 2011 (EDT)
 * No Heart - NO, THIS IS THE ULTIMATE KEYBLADE ARMOR. 18:09, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Radiant Garden - Amazing artwork, that is all. 18:09, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 05:47, 2 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Love Radiant Garden  09:55, 5 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 05:47, 2 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Love Radiant Garden  09:55, 5 August 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Love Radiant Garden  09:55, 5 August 2011 (EDT)

August 2011

 * Dawn (Puzzle) - Nomura doesn't provide the Kingdom Hearts series with as much artwork as he does the Final Fantasy series, but this just takes the cake. Twilight is a representation of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, a game which brought the game into gaming history with its handheld gameplay and prelude to a bigger storyline. Though it may seem a tad blurry, the reduced size of the displayed image will remedy this. Also, Vexen and Lexaeus's faces. Priceless. -- 16:11, 5 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) KHRe:CoM is my favorite game --08:20, 6 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Awesome. 17:04, 9 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Lol yeah Vexen's face is priceless. XD
 * 4) This is Nomura's work at its finest. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  17:10, 18 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Just Desserts - This is a silly entry, a banana! With the complexity of the plot and characters of the Kingdom Hearts series, elements like using a banana as a weapon and then peeling it to fight even harder is absolutely ironic and hilarious. Isn't it... appealing? -- 16:11, 5 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) What can I say? I'm a sucker for bad puns. ^_^-- Xion 4  ever  09:35, 15 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Aerial Champ - Many of our readers and visitors aren't aware of the benefits Japan gets overseas, known to us only as Final Mix. The Aerial Champ is a beautiful recolorization of an enemy, a design quality that has become a standard for the Final Mix games in the series. -- 16:11, 5 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Re:Chain: Scherzo Di Notte - A beautiful piece from the Chain of Memories remake. Although the game's mechanics were irritating at times, along with it came this reinterpreted version of my old favorite. -- 18:30, 5 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) I do love this song and as already said KHRe:CoM is my favorite game --08:20, 6 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) HOLLOW BASTION COMPELS YOU!! Oh, and Yoko Shimomura for the epic win.-- Xion 4  ever  09:35, 15 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) While I ultimately prefer the KHI and BbS versions, I love this song no matter what.
 * 4) Hell, I haven't played ReCoM in a while; I should pop it in my PS2 and get a good hit of nostalgia. maggosh 15:22, 16 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Xemnas's Sword - The most beautiful weapon to every grace my screen. It's just such a pity that I never got fight with it.   18:45, 5 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Well I do like this weapon and it makes me wonder if it isn't... no it can't be or can it?--08:20, 6 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) @Xabryn: I do believe it is :) 17:04, 9 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Best sword evah.
 * 4) I prefer lightsabers, but whatever. 09:53, 15 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) Damn, that's a sexy sword. -- 14:38, 15 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Organization Moogle - Because it's bringing sexy back.  18:45, 5 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) AAAAWWWWWWHHHH YYYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH 17:04, 9 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 20:15, 13 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Kitteh! :3
 * 2) In honor of THE THING THAT IS LEAST LIKELY TO BE EVIL, Moogle No.XV 09:53, 15 July 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) For teh lulz. -- 14:38, 15 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Firagun Bangle - TINY VIKING HELMETS COMPEL YOU!  18:45, 5 July 2011 (EDT)

Winners:Xemnas's Sword, Organization Moogle, Dawn. Since both Scherzo and Dawn were tied and Xemnas's sword and the Moogle were tied, the ones that were nominated first got chosen first. 13:25, 1 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Also, for the Dawn artwork, the File:Dawn (Art).png should be used in place of the actual puzzle, as we want the artwork, not the in- game puzzle (unless Erry's version ends up being higher quality than the artwork).  13:44, 1 August 2011 (EDT)

July 2011
''Important Notice: This is the first month we will be testing the new system of voting for Featured Media, which involves multiple nominations and votes to select three images that will be displayed during the month for about ten days each. Our database of images and other media is growing vastly, and it was decided during May's Roundtable meeting that we should switch to a tri-image system each month in order to properly feature it. Each user can now nominate up to three pieces of media and also can vote for up to three candidates. "Ineligible Categories" has been disbanded; instead, no two images may come from the same category. At the end of the month, the three images with the top votes will be selected, unless if one of the winning images conflicts with another image's category, in which case it will not be selected, though could be rolled over to the next month's voting. Again, this is a trial month, so some rockiness is to be expected.''


 * Fairy Stars - Well, since this keyblade has stars, with blue, red   (*coughgreenkindaruinedthemoodcough*)    ,and a bit of white why not use this keyblade for July? Especially for the 4th of July. (Yay, for the Unites Stares of America! :D)
 * Hero's Pride -Since a gif was never nominated before I thought about nominating one for this month.--Xabryn 08:48, 7 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) YUSH...   because I made it.    09:51, 7 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) My personal favorite Command, along with Time Splicer. 12:47, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) I love Zach so this is like a dedication to him.
 * 04:04, 19 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Approval. GET!!
 * Room Core - Why not? -- 17:05, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Oh this too. 18:48, 15 June 2011 (EDT)
 * I'll get the ball rolling on this Tri-nominating system then. I'm nominating the following three images mainly to celebrate the recent release of Disney's new film: Pirates of the Caribbean On Stranger Tides, and partially because I am now obsessed with playing LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean ^_^ . 16:55, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Pirate - Classic enemies with a big sword controlled by Captain Hook, and one of my favourite Heartless. 16:55, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 17:46, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) One of my favorite Heartless. 19:09, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) -- 18:34, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Because I love PotC. 08:25, 29 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) Always thought this was the coolest looking common Heartless in the first KH.-- Random! to a point!  00:20, 30 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Port Royal - A very detailed world image with the iconic skull and crossed-swords logo present. 16:55, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 17:46, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 08:25, 29 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Captain Barbossa - An extremely detailed image when compared with other Enemy Images; you can practically see the fibres in his clothes. Also, feathered hats are cool, right? 16:55, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 17:46, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
 * Aye, Captain. all who vote for the others must walk the plank into the stormy seas! -- Xion 4  ever  17:10, 11 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) -- 18:34, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 08:25, 29 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) YES. Tambours Néant  Ensemble !  16:03, 1 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Lord Fortune - The power of the cosmos is MINE!  13:34, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) I swear I thought it was a duck at first... 19:09, 12 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Yes. 18:45, 15 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 04:04, 19 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) -- 18:33, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) -- Xion 4  ever  19:42, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Winners: Hero's Pride, Pirate, Lord Fortune, in that order.

June 2011
Ineligible Categories: Cutscenes, Artwork
 * Stitch - The original film was released in June 2002, so nominating this image for the coming month seems rather fitting. When you think about it, Stitch has a role of his own in the series. He's met Sora, Terra, Aqua, and Ven, helping them defeat an enemy or two, he's made his own Wayfinder, and helped defend Hollow Bastion in the Battle of the 1000 Heartless. More than enough reasons to feature this little guy, right? 05:45, 1 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 06:23, 1 May 2011 (EDT)


 * Metamorphosis (Final Mix) - I know we just had an Unversed image, but this one is just awesome. Really, there's no other way to describe it. --Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.pngAS  IF! Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.png 10:29, 1 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Indeed, quite awesome. 11:10, 1 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) This is the most epic jellyfish any of you will lay eyes on. UltimateExplosiveHeartless 16:58, 3 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Yes. 17:31, 3 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) My votes goes to the "Jellyfish".
 * 5) Now who said it looks like Highbreed again? I completely agree. And it IS awesome. 10:26, 5 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 6) ~Lilienne♫^-^ 11:27, 18 May 2011 (EDT)


 * Shadow - We seem to take this guy for granted. I mean look at it. The Shadow is the root—the very basic of Heartless. All other Heartless stem from this one little thing. Think about it: Xehanort (apprentice) first found out about Heartless when he discovered the Shadow Heartless. If it weren't for these little critters, Xehanort wouldn't have found the door, wouldn't become a Heartless, and the rest of the Kingdom Hearts series wouldn't have happened. I believe Shadows deserve the respect. 17:16, 1 May 2011 (EDT)

May 2011
Ineligible Categories: Enemies, Cutscenes
 * Rising Falls - An extremely detailed image of an area only seen once or twice in the series. I really like this image, the upward flowing water should remind us all about reaching new heights, and gravity need not hold us back. 14:10, 2 April 2011 (EDT) INELIGIBLE: WATERMARK -- 03:00, 30 April 2011 (EDT) REELIGIBLE: NO MORE WATERMARK --Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.pngAS  IF! Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.png 10:52, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Honestly, I'm voting because it's friggin' Hollow Bastion 15:09, 2 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) All hail the waterfall that defies the laws of physics! ^^ 22:06, 2 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Such an epic story part..."You were just the delivery boy" echoes in my mind to this day. Oh, and nice use of words, Dan.-- Xion 4  ever  15:26, 5 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) What Xion4ever said. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  15:31, 5 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) Troisnyx approves. Tambours Néant  Ensemble !  15:28, 6 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 6) No matter what image it is, Dan always manages to find a positive message inside of it...  19:40, 7 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 7) Mkay. 19:24, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 8) Crono approves, and that is what really matters. -- 19:45, 15 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 9) Ehh... why not? --Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.pngAS IF! Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.png 10:30, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 10) Oyayz 12:40, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * Hollow Bastion & Cavern of Remembrance - Sorry, Dan, but this piece of Hollow Bastion artwork trumps them all. The detail, the shading, the colors and lighting... everything comes together to make this one of my favorite pieces of artwork in the whole series.  Plus it also features the Cavern of Remembrance, for good measure. --Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.pngAS  IF! Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.png 14:29, 2 April 2011 (EDT)
 * Ventus's Room Layout - We've hardly featured anything related to Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep in Featured Media, plus it has been a little while since we've featured a location. We don't have much time, so vote for it or nominate something else. -- 03:08, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) Approving twice a month? I'm too lazy for this... -- 09:24, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * Disney Castle Exterior - Location images are good, I agree. It's part of the reason why I nominated the Rising Falls image, but if that's been disqualified because of the watermark, I'm nominating this. Another favourite location image of mine, I've nominated it twice before, so I think it's about time we feature this awesome picture of the castle's towers climbing up toward a blue sky. I thought we were going to discuss Featured Media in May's Roundtable?   06:29, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * Thanks to ShardofTruth for re-uploading the Rising Falls image with no watermark. Wow, this is getting messy and confusing...   11:42, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
 * Thanks to ShardofTruth for re-uploading the Rising Falls image with no watermark. Wow, this is getting messy and confusing...   11:42, 30 April 2011 (EDT)

As of May 2011, images with watermarks are ineligible to be featured. Discussed on IRC, so we've GOT to hurry and pick something for May. -- 02:59, 30 April 2011 (EDT)

Selected File: The now watermark-less Rising Falls!



April 2011
Ineligible Categories: Artwork, Enemies
 * Sora and Kairi At Sunset - This is one of the most iconic images in all of Kingdom Hearts, and it's also a personal favorite. The sunset, Sora and Kairi... it all harkens back to the beginning, and it's all so... perfect. What's not to love? Also, someone needs to reupload it with better quality, as it's a jpeg. --Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.pngAS  IF! Xigbar's Replica Data KHIIFM.png 18:07, 4 March 2011 (EST)
 * Sora, Riku, and Kairi at the Bent Palm Tree - Kinda piggybacking on your idea, As if, but I'd say this is an improved version of the above image. It's higher quality, contains all three main characters, even more iconic (IMO), and it's an image of an FMV. 10:10, 5 March 2011 (EST)
 * Roxas and Xion - I dunno, this image just rocks. It speaks for itself, really.   18:19, 7 March 2011 (EST)
 * 1)  What the Inexistent said.
 * 2) Falcon Mrk II 18:53, 10 March 2011 (EST) Oh, how i love Days...Good times. X]
 * 3) This picture is just awesome! ^^ 18:58, 10 March 2011 (EST)
 * 4) Great screenshot.
 * 5) Tough choice...However, I'm gonna go with this image. In short: Xion4ever approves of Xion image. XION COMPELS YOU!-- Xion 4  ever  19:51, 15 March 2011 (EDT)
 * 07:27, 16 March 2011 (EDT)

 * Hades Admiration - I believe we can all appreciate true lulz. ◄ Θάνατος <font color="#483d8b">►  07:06, February 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Shade Jelly Family! - The whole family of crazy, "kooky" Shade Jelly Unversed. These guys are definitely different than any Heartless or Nobody ever introduced before, and are even unique within the family of Unversed. All of them are different, just like all of our different wiki editors, viewers, staffers, and readers are--hooray for figurative rhetoric in images! Also, that's a beautiful watermark on the edge of that image, CLC. -- 07:24, February 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Hades gets old. -- 20:21, February 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) ^truefaxx -- 20:50, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

 * 4) Yes! :D 02:47, February 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) DTN completely convinced me. Plus I loved pwning them in swarms. ~Lilienne♫ ^^ 17:07, February 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) Jellyfish for the win. UltimateExplosiveHeartless 10:02, 19 February 2011 (EST)
 * 7) Mushroom  10:12, 19 February 2011 (EST)
 * Sora and Riku in KH3D - This is a marvelous picture showing Sora and Riku in the new Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance! Sora and Riku, in their original outfits, wielding their original weapon, gaze at the shining light ahead. 17:18, February 1, 2011 (UTC) Ineligible: The "Artwork" category is closed this month!
 * 1) I LOVE this picture. [[File:Roxas's Symbol small.png]] <font color="Red"> Superdog1123 [[File:Roxas's Symbol small.png]] <Font color="Orange">HAPPY <font color="Gold">NEW YEAR  EVERYONE !!! 06:00, February 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) As much as I love the image of all the Keyblades, they would just be too small to see on the main page. 20:12, February 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Well, after that little nomination failure below, i'd like to vote for this. It is an an awesome picture, and the Keyblades are just to small
 * 4) *See Darkheart3's comment* 22:24, February 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) Sora and Riku never looked cooler in their Kingdom Hearts outfits. maggosh 17:34, February 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) YES YES YES. Is it just me, or does Sora's keyblade look fully golden in that pic?  01:45, February 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 7) That picture is just epic! It makes Sora and Riku look awesome in their old outfits and everything just looks really cool. 02:52, February 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 8) Not a bad image. Plus, NINTENDO 3DS this year, baby! :D-- Xion 4  ever  13:44, 27 February 2011 (EST)
 * Keyblades - A featured media image should encompass its subject, yes? Well, I honestly believe that this image does just that.  Plus, the Hades Admiration image is getting to the point when it was nominated as often as the room coar...  17:22, February 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) This is a sweet image. Plus, I feel like we should save the 3D pic for when it actually comes out.
 * KHII Opening - I'd like to nominate this picture because of the sort of combined similarities of Roxas and Sora (Sora eating Sea-Salt ice cream, Roxas's favourite food)
 * This is artwork, right? This image should be disqualified. - Lev  L  21:06, February 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * Kingdom Hearts Opening - We've never had a video as a Featured Media choice before, and this is a great video. It's basically how the entire world was first introduced to Kingdom Hearts, and represents a sense of nostalgia.  It also reflects our move to SEIWA, as we will be starting a new adventure, just like Sora in the video.  So how about it?  00:38, February 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ineligable. If you read the above rules, it says no youtube clips.   02:38, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Verdict: The Shade Jelly Unversed take center stage on the main page!



February 2011
Ineligible Categories: Music Media, Characters
 * Coded Characters - First of all, it is not a character image, that applies to renders; this is artwork. Anyway, this is perfect! Kingdom Hearts Re:coded comes out this month in North America, a game that has received very little coverage, which we can fix by featuring this amazing image. Also, I love some of the character expressions on this that we do not usually see in our "happy" artwork, such as Mickey's perplexity, Goofy's fear, and Donald's rage. Vote it! -- 09:38, January 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Well, you've got some great reasons. Gotta admit, this is the first artwork that shows emotion (all the ones you said, DTN, including Jiminy Cricket's shocked face. And I'm waiting so bad for this game. I'm all for it! 05:05, January 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) I love this pic.
 * 3) This is not my favorite of the three, however it's Re:coded's time to shine (seeing that the NA release is very soon).
 * 4) 'tis awesome and Re:coded's coming soon. (P.S. Shouldn't we make a Re:coded theme by now?)  05:52, January 4, 2011 (UTC)

 * 1) ^^I concur. -- 06:19, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Face it, guys- without Kingdom Hearts...what else would they name the game? :O-- Xion 4  ever  15:00, January 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Radiant Garden: I'm nominating this again because it's so amazingly drawn, must've taken ages to be finished. Not only that it's the only original world that's unique compared to anything we have in real life. 03:04, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) What a beautiful image--Xabryn 15:15, January 4, 2011 (UTC)

 * 1) Bitch all you want about everyone "liking Aqua's body". This is hilarious. -- 07:16, January 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Good to see this nominated again
 * 3) Changin' the vote, let's go. 23:34, January 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) How did this not get featured yet?!?!? DoreikuKuroofangu - Visit the Soul Shrine!  06:00, January 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) I vote for this picture. (Love, people!)

Winner: The cast of Kingdom Hearts coded is gracing the front page! -- 07:05, February 1, 2011 (UTC)

Ineligible Categories: Characters, Artwork
 * Radiant Garden: It's one of the best designed worlds. Just look at the intricate design at the front of the world's gateway. It's just too amazing.
 * 1) Agree 12:01, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it's artwork.  Disqualified.  maggosh 20:09, December 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Disney Castle Exterior: I'm nominating this image again because I think it'd be a really nice picture to start the new year. The tall spires stretching towards a blue sky should remind us all about reaching out to others. Here's to a Happy 2011! 11:40, December 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sanctuary: Nomura himself had stated that Sanctuary is like dawn. What better way to start the year than with a song of dawn, especially the ~After the Battle~ version? Amazing song for an amazing New Year!
 * 1) I agree. :D maggosh 03:31, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Same here. Great song, and I think it'd be the first audio featured media. (at least that I remember) -- 03:59, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) As smexeh as Aqua looks on the cover of BBSFM, new year's needs a new dawn. 04:33, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Agreed with JFHavoc. As much as I LOVE that picture of Disney Castle, let's save it for another month—we need some featured audio. 05:51, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Featured music, now there's an idea! Scratch my nomination, this is far better! 10:56, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) I was actually using this song to calm down earlier. :) --Never fear ... Superdog is here! Yipee! :D 06:37, December 8, 2010 (UTC)Superdog1123
 * 2) Forgot about this page. 03:42, December 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) For my return, I'm going back to the song from which I learned my first rhythm. 14:35, December 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix: It certainly is surprising just how many visitors to our wiki and Kingdom Hearts fans are not aware of the existence of this reissue of the PSP hit we all know and love(d). Featuring fantastic new artwork of the three protagonists that even, to me, foreshadows their ultimate fates, this beautiful boxart shows the reality of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix and just how great it is going to be, aside from the troubling aspect that we North Americans cannot get our hands on it! (Also, a featured audio track would be troublesome for people without QuickTime, the correct version, or a computer that cannot play the file.) -- 03:55, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Isn't this artwork? And it should be doubly disqualified, it has characters smack dab on it. -- 11:06, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * You're right, Crono.  Disqualified.  maggosh 20:09, December 7, 2010 (UTC)
 *  Requalified.  As shown in the Featured Media gallery, "Boxart" is considered a section of its own apart from characters and artwork. -- 23:32, December 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * 1) I was threatened >.> R8.50Mango
 * 2) ^What DTN said.
 * 3) KINGDOM HEARTS BIRTH BY SLEEP [FINAL MIX] COMPELS YOU!-- Xion 4  ever  16:11, December 12, 2010 (UTC)
