***** '''Support with caveat''' - What about separate featured statuses? There could be regular FAs, like the [[Karawati]] page, or [[Salak]] and [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]] profiles, that could be shown on the front page and are recognized for their original content ... BUT there could also be a special nomination (Featured Content?) that recognizes things like the Indy crew history and other lists, etcetera for the amount of work and research gone into their creation. That way, the spotlight on the FAs and their content would spotlight the front page and the FA category, but great list-y articles would still be recognized. (I'm a little tired, so if my phraseology is completely off, I'll try to clarify later.) [[User:Onewhoisseveral|Onewhoisseveral]] 01:54, 28 April 2008 (EDT)

****** Well not every FA will make the front page I'd expect. We're promoting roughly 1 FA a week, but the front page is an Article of the Month. We could exclude lists from being front page, but not too sure about that. When does an article become a list, where's the line? - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

******* Indeed, AotM and Featured Articles are different -- all AotM are Featured Articles, but I suspect that not all FA will end up as AotM. The question remains whether lists without any kind of prose content are applicable for featured status. --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml.
