NetHackWiki:Featured articles
Featured articles are those considered good enough to showcase on the Main Page.
Contents
Howto
- Visit Wikihack:Featured article candidates and suggest or vote for an article.
- Add {{featured}} to the bottom of the new featured article.
- Edit {{currentfeature}} to change the current featured article displayed on the main page. Once a month is probably best.
Featured articles and Wikihack:Next version
The tags used with the project Wikihack:Next version occupy the same area to the right of the article title as the star that {{featured}} displays. This fact may lead to difficulty if an article, already tagged for Wikihack:Next version, later becomes featured. The version tags all support an "offset" parameter, so they can play nice with {{featured}} and with each other. For example (and an extreme one), Altar has these tags:
{{nethack-343|offset=3}}
{{slashem-7E7|offset=2}}
{{variant-343|offset=1}}
{{featured}}
The results of the offset parameter are clearly visible at the top of Altar. The {{noversion}} tag also supports the offset parameter, because while it should never need to be used with the other version tags, it still has to play nice with {{featured}}.
Criteria
A featured article should:
- be complete and comprehensive
- contain no errors
- have no red links
Since Wikihack is still young, few articles will meet these criteria. They are nevertheless what we should aim for over time.
