******** I suppose, then, that lists wouldn't have the first attribute of the four necessary for a featured article - it isn't "well-written," simply because there's nothing written. It's comprehensive and pretty to look at, but there's not any real original content. The point of instituting the FA system seems, to me, to be to showcase well-written articles to a larger audience (group and/or non-group members), I think there's too much of a "so what?" factor with vessel-specific lists to seriously consider them as Featured Articles.

===[[USS Ursa Major]]===
* '''Support as nominator:''' Quite frankly, the best length of any currently active ship page, best layout, nice and tidy. Stereotypical example. Nothing spectacular, just the relevent details and a few pretty pics. As for static, well my adding the FAC template was the first edit to the page in a year and a half. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

* '''Oppose:''' Needs a better picture (that banner is meant to go on the main page of the site, not on a white-background, like here), and the motto box needs to be color-coded better. --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 20:52, 7 April 2008 (EDT)
** '''Comment:''' Are all motto boxes gray now? Seems like they clash. If we're going to go with gray, why not coordinate the color with the purple of the fleet box/nav panels? --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 01:46, 8 April 2008 (EDT)
*** '''Comment:''' Far from it! They're only gray usually if the little pic has a gray border around it, which I can't make transparant. See the Eagle motto bar, the Ronin motto bar for examples of coloured ones. Discovery's is pink! I like the colour a motto bar can add to a page so feel it would be a shame if all were gray. Tend to either co-ordinate it with the motto bar pic (hence the pink for Discovery, orange for Ronin), or find a colour no other active ship uses. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

**'''Comment:''' Motto bar colour changed to a light blue to reflect the nacelles, but the dark edge of the pic doesn't help it. There's [[:Image:Sovereign.jpg]] going unused but it doesn't work on that page. Other options are the rotating one on the Titan page or finding a new pic. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

**** Any better now then? - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt. Salak</font>]][[Image:Nav-paladin.jpg|35px|USS Independence-A]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 13:49, 15 April 2008 (EDT)
