Hello. I am hoping that we have several new members of the Bible Wiki community to get involved in this. I would like to bring up what has recently been brought to my attention: the idea to revive the Featured Article program. At one point the monthly FA program was discontinued as it became too time consuming for the amount of involvement.

Now that we are anticipating and praying for a community of believers, we would like to revive this program. The Featured Article program would be a monthly program where members of the Bible Wiki community vote and deliberate on promoting one article for that month on the mainpage and social media channels. This would be a great way to showcase the detailed content of Bible Wiki and give evidence to the Bible and its historicity. This also is a great way for members of the Bible Wiki community to interact in fellowship. To make this a part of the community I would like to propose the following for a ruleset for Featured Articles.

In order for an article to qualify for candidacy for Featured Article it should be a minimum of four paragraphs (the longer the better) and should not be marked as a stub, needing a cleanup, missing or any other major maintenance problems. The article should be of high quality written and biblical content, and needs to be from a Bible Wiki:Biblical Point of View. Content also should not be copied from another site. Articles can only be a Featured Article once every sixth months in order to showcase as much content as possible. Articles should be nominated on the respective voting thread for the month. After nominating an article, community members can either nominate their own or vote. Whatever article has the most amount of votes will be the Featured Article. In the case of a tie, the article with the least amount of votes will be disqualified and users voting on that article will need to vote again, or the other article will win when only two articles are nominated.

All FA will be promoted on the mainpage for a month and will have a daily post for five consecutive days on our social media channel.

Below post your thoughts and comments and vote on if you agree or disagree (votes will be counted manually) with the proposal. After a ruleset for Featured Articles begin we will start a seperate thread to vote for the month of March.
