==Featured Image Nominations==
[[PikminFanon:About|Pikmin Fanon]] '''features articles and files''' on its [[Main Page|main page]] at least every two months. They are well-made, have a high quality and degree of workmanship, and follow the [[PikminFanon:Policies and guidelines|policies and guidelines]]. Previously featured content is kept in [[:Category:Featured content|its own category]].
To nominate an image, create a new section titled the name of the image you nominate, then create 'support', 'oppose' and 'comments' subsections and sign your name under 'support', along with your reasons if necessary. Other users can then sign their support or opposition and the article will be featured when a new one is needed if it has enough support.  


===Rules===
All editors are encouraged to nominate and vote [[PikminFanon:Featured content/Nominations|here]] on articles and files they want to see featured on the wiki's front page. When the time comes to nominate new content, one [[Help:Group rights#Administrators|staff member]] is tasked with checking the nominations, discussing with the community tie-breakers and other details, and updating the front page. Additionally, the formerly featured content should be moved to the [[PikminFanon:Featured content/Past nominations|nomination archive]].
*Must have proper licensing on their file page
*Must be a good quality image (not poorly drawn or compiled, blurry/frizzy-edged, or small; would not suggest simple recolors of concept art or images that mix two styles, such as 3D concept art with 2D "paint-ons"; though good drawings and other forms of 2D imagery by themselves are fine)
*Must appear on a good quality article (good quality being defined as following rules pertaining to page formatting, having a good amount of information, and without spelling or grammar errors)
*Must look cool (images with backgrounds or fanon "screenshots" are ideal but not required) and represent the wiki in a positive way
*Images may not be nominated by the person that created it


==Featured Article Nominations==
Note that diminished activity on the wiki may extend the period in which content is featured. Additionally, during periods of low activity, staff members may choose new content to feature without needing any prior consensus, although they must still abide by the rules just as anyone else.

Additionally, the formerly featured content should be moved to the nomination archive.

A collection of featured Pikmin is found here.
