Voting for December, 2010
Well, that's three weeks now, so voting is now closed. December's featured article will be A Very Digi Christmas. Now, as I mentioned before, the synopsis needs some work, which basically means it needs to be longer. I made some general improvements to the rest of the article a while ago, so everything else should be fine. There's also a good amount of trivia, though it wouldn't hurt to have a couple more quotes.

 How about feature Brave Heart in December? There aren't music featured articles even in the weekly voting archives and this one can be easily fixed up. Tailed Fox 20:30, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

How about BlackWarGreymon?76.185.34.243 23:01, November 8, 2010 (UTC)Anomynous

C'mon people! December? It's gotta be A Very Digi Christmas! (Synopsis needs work, otherwise it's basically fine.) THB  → Talk ← 16:39, November 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with that. --White Star Line234px-WhiteStarLogo svg.png 16:56, November 18, 2010 (UTC)

I also second THB!

November, 2010: Agumon (Adventure)
Halloween's over, November's here, and four votes makes Agumon (Adventure) this month's featured article. THB  → Talk ← 16:56, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

Another unanimous result - Agumon (Adventure) with four votes. Skimming through the article, the only problem I found was a low quality screenshot, which I've now replaced. Other than that, as far as I can see, all that needs doing is a spelling and grammar check. If anyone spots any other issues with the article, feel free to bring them up on the article's talk page, or even better, fix it yourself! THB  → Talk ← 12:14, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

 How about Agumon (Adventure)? It looks pretty good to me. -- Tokyo Five-O, Bookem Takato 02:33, September 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sure, I'll second that. THB  → Talk ← 09:56, September 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agumon (Adventure) is sure a good article, I second its vote. AnDrEy 19:48, September 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am third of the opinion. 75.76.96.94 13:00, October 7, 2010 (UTC)Omnius

October, 2010: Seven Great Demon Lords
Seven Great Demon Lords is October's Featured Article with a solid four votes. THB  → Talk ← 20:30, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's unanimous. Four votes says Seven Great Demon Lords is this month's winner. Now, concerning problems with the article; it's already been mentioned that the Digimon World Data Squad and Digimon World DS sections need filling in a bit more. Other than that, all that really needs doing is the standard spelling and grammar check. Further discussion on this topic should take place at Talk:Seven Great Demon Lords.

 * I second that vote, provided the Digimon World Data Squad and Digimon World DS sections are fleshed out further. Glorious  CHAOS!  14:51, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * I also second it. (Unsigned)

September, 2010: D-Reaper
Well, time's up, and D-Reaper will now be going up as September's featured article. Thanks to all those people over the months who helped make this article a worthy candidate. <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 10:11, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Voting is now officially closed, and I've just added the breaking vote to make D-Reaper the winner. Now, as far as problems with the article are concerned, all I can really suggest is finding a better quality screenshot, and checking for spelling, grammar and so on. Beyond that, I'm not sure what to say. I'm afraid I'm not at all familiar with the article. If someone else, possibly an admin, could list any major problems with the article, that would be great. Thanks. <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 21:19, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Got a new picture, See Article, and I checked spelling, grammar, and conventions. Awaiting further orders -- Tokyo Five-O, Bookem Takato 21:55, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * I hate to sound fussy, but could we possibly get a screenshot that doesn't contain any logos. If anyone could upload a RAW screenshot, that would be perfect. Anyway, skimming through the rest of the article, it looks fine, and I know that a lot of work has already gone into it. I'd be willing to let go up. <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 11:37, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * I updated the image, but the thumbnail won't update for some reason? You can click on the thumb nail and see the large view with the fixed image, however the thumbnail refuses to change. Any thoughts? -- Tokyo Five-O, Bookem Takato 21:20, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that sometimes happens when I re-upload a certain screenshot. It should sort itself out by the end of the month. If not, try uploading again - I've often found that helps. <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 13:12, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * most everything on its talk page has been dealt with. The only things that still need to be done are to flesh out the plot sections, using the informative format and the storylink templates. See tfwiki's articles on main characters (Optimus, Dinobot) to see what kind of quality we want. Glorious  CHAOS!  13:39, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * I fixed the tumbnail. I edited the px size as an unregistered contributor and the image updated!-- Tokyo Five-O, Bookem Takato 02:58, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

my vote is for lucemon because its cute and different 142.68.237.116 00:33, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

After some research, I have decided to nominate D-Reaper for the featured article of September on the grounds that it is fairly complete, were organized, and well formed. -- Tokyo Five-O, Bookem Takato 04:36, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * No sense in nominating another article, so I'll second D-Reaper. <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 21:19, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

August, 2010: Digimon Sovereigns
Alright! This month's winner is Digimon Sovereigns with two votes. <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 18:48, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

All right then! It's the 15th now and the are closed. Digimon Sovereigns wins. At first glance, these are the major problems I can see with the article:


 * All of the fiction sections must be rewritten in present tense.
 * The stubbed fiction sections must be completed.
 * The Fanglongmon section needs polishing.

So, let's get to it in time for the next week! Lanate (talk) 21:08, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Discussion of this in Talk:Digimon Sovereigns. Rad140 (Message) 23:01, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, it's the 22nd now. I can see that there's been a bit of a cleanup, though some problems still remain. On the other hand, the article's so near-complete, it would be a shame to say no to it. I'd be willing to let it go up. We've still got a few days to make improvements anyway. What does everyone else think? <font style="font-family:neuropol; font-size:120%; text-shadow:darkgray 1px 1px">THB <font style="font-family:segoe script"> → Talk ← 19:25, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

Digimon Adventure (Movie) is the first Digimon anime and the animes were those which made Digimon famous. AnDrEy 19:27, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Its Summer just now so i am voting for apollomon? (Unsigned)

Digimon Sovereigns here. Or SGDL, we can get it cleaned up soon. Glorious  CHAOS!  18:50, July 5, 2010 (UTC)
