:True. Maybe it would be better to use the Quality Article "award" a lot more to mark really good articles. Instead of using the best ones for FAs.

:Well, Shane has already slapped the candidate tag on on "Colonial Gang" and as said "Starbuck's Poem" might not be a bad choice for unusualness, though it's very short. Maybe [[Memorial hallway]]? It's an integral concept of the show, but doesn't have that many views. -- [[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 19:52, 12 March 2008 (CDT)

Any ideas

See header. --Steelviper 15:02, 7 March 2008 (CST)

We could try Lee Adama, since it's one of the best character articles IMO. While it still retells a lot of plot, it does attempt to note his motivations, character traits and growth. And it also focuses on smaller things that are important for him. Other ideas would be some previous nominees likes Virtual beings or Weapons in the Re-imagined Series.

A general comment: A suggestion I've received through the survey is to avoid doing obvious articles as "Featured Articles", and try some unconventional articles that still qualify. Tom Zarek and most of the other articles we've had in the past are, for all intents and purposes, very conventional and safe articles. They're obvious choices... And most people know about them anyway...

I think it would be best to spice up our choices a bit. Try something different. Maybe something like Unnamed characters (1980), Starbuck's Poem, Norman Blore, The Colonial Gang... something that is unconventional.

Well, Shane has already slapped the candidate tag on on "Colonial Gang" and as said "Starbuck's Poem" might not be a bad choice for unusualness, though it's very short. Maybe Memorial hallway? It's an integral concept of the show, but doesn't have that many views. -- Serenity 19:52, 12 March 2008 (CDT)
