Fairy Tail Wiki:Featured Article/November 2015

How to Vote

 * No person's vote counts more than someone else's. Administrators' and Policy and Standards Council members' included!
 * Users are allowed to cast one "Support" vote only. If a user casts more than one "Support" vote, all of their votes will be moved to the "Deleted Votes" section by an Admin. The user will be notified about this by that Admin and will be invited to cast a new, proper vote.
 * Admins, do not remove a user's vote without contacting them.
 * Users may also use one "Oppose" vote. This vote if used properly counts towards the candidate's total. If not then it is just to show other users problems with the article.
 * You do not have to use the "Oppose" vote if you do not wish to. However, if you use the "Oppose" vote, you are strongly encouraged to also use the "Support" vote to suggest your alternative.
 * Any vote cast without using the  or   templates will be deleted.
 * All votes must be signed. A user will be given until the end of voting deadline to sign their vote, otherwise it will be deleted. (You can sign your vote by adding 4 tildes to the end of it ~ )
 * A user may change his/her vote or stated reasons at any time until the end of voting deadline, so long as they do not post multiple votes.
 * The voting period ends on the day before the end of the month to allow time for the featured page to be prepared and put up on the first day of the new month.
 * Votes cast after the voting period has expired will not be counted. The timestamp on votes will be used to judge if a vote was made in time or not.
 * Users may not change the content of other users' comments without their permission. It is what they wrote, and it is up to them to resolve any mistakes.
 * In the event of a tie, the winner will be decided by active Administrators and Policy and Standards Council members. This is so the vote can be handled as quickly as possible.

Bisca Connell

 * Support
 * 11:40,10/30/2015
 * 1) If it weren't for the fact that we had a location as featured article last month, I would've voted for the Bureau of Magical Development; a great example of how a truly good location page is supposed to look like. Anyways, I think Bisca deserves the recognition this month considering her feats in the manga recently, and she is a cool minor character, so yeah... I don't see why not.

 * 1) After this event, if Bisca ever comes up in a vote again, people are just gonna gloss over her, unlike Yury's case. People are interested in the guy. People are not interested in Bisca. And her article is not complete or obscure enough to get the 'let's make unknown articles popular' vote like Bobo. It's simple. After this event, put Bisca and Yury together and most people will go with the latter. Nobody will bother with the marksman. Then there's the whole God Serena thing. Yury can get many more chances, unlike Bisca. So let Bisca ride the wave. She deserves it. And this para is written without letting my hate for Zero and Yury taint it ... I think.

 * 3) You go girl
 * 4) Being able to 'oppose' in these votings is dumb as fuck btw.  23:38, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * 5) Lol, yeah.. no. Even with Bisca helping out Erza in the Ajeel fight, she's far from a "hot topic." And besides, even if she was a hot topic, we've featured hot topics before. If we're being honest, literally no one is going to be visiting Bisca's page. It'd be nice to give the ol' gal some publicity. Also guys, oppose votes are valid but they make you look salty.

 * 6) Whilst I agree with not featuring high-traffic pages, most of the time that's because people want to feature the most recently-appearing characters who have next to no synopsis, minimal and often slightly speculative M&A sections etc.(Aka, Brandish or Ajeel right now). Bisca has never been too popular and I doubt her recent stunt will make her page get too many more views. As such, she deserves the feature.  10:58, October 31, 2015 (UTC)


 * Oppose
 * 1) Sane your argument is completely invalid. Bisca is already a hot topic because of the manga. The whole purpose behind featured article is promote high quality pages that are generally not of relevance at the current to get people to browse other, not as touched parts of the wiki. The best time to feature Bisca is after all of this when she isn't relevant.  22:09, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) I agree with Wrath on the matter. NoNickNeeded (talk) 22:42, October 30, 2015 (UTC)


 * Neutral

The point of the featured article is to feature high quality articles. The whole unwritten rule of no one that is currently relevant either needs to be written down or done away with an I am in favor of the latter as anyone should be able to be featured whenever as long as the page is good and they havent been featured in the last year. Hell, the page doesnt even need to be good. I cite Rosemary Village as an example of that. TL:DR, the unwritten rule needs to go as it is only a hindrance to featuring good articles.--
 * Comments

Hot topic? Despite this event, Yury's page is still more popular than Bisca's (according to the cats anyway, after clearing cache, but eh, dunno how reliable). By that argument, voting for Yury is the wrong thing.

Plus, this hot topic thing isn't really convincing coming after the recent Aquarius-themed month. We obviously can't have a Bisca-themed one 'cuz, sadly, she doesn't have many cool pics or quotes. 'Cuz, y'know, she's not very relevant. :/

Yury is quite relevant right now, what with all the God Serena speculation going around. Much more relevant than Bisca is now, or ever will be. Again, this would mean that voting for Yury is the wrong thing to do.

Plus, I agree with God about just doing away with that unwritten rule.

Lastly, ... last time I opposed something in a similar vote, I started a huge oppose war. Just hoping something similar doesn't happen here. On that note, I think it's kinda stupid to be able to cast a support and an oppose vote in the same poll. Just one vote per person, please~ --Sane Lunatic (talk) 03:30, October 31, 2015 (UTC)

Mard Geer Tartaros

 * 1)  18:03, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Yury Dreyar

 * 1) I would support Bisca, but we have this unspoken rule that we can't vote for characters who have appeared in recent manga events (because 'their pages are going to keep being added to and altered over the course of the month' and/or 'people are already reading their pages and are aware of what they've done anyway, so promoting them is pointless' or some paraphrase thereof), otherwise I would've proposed and voted for Ajeel. Rather, if you guys want a character, how about Yury? He is a lesser known character despite his great importance in the series. Article is rather high quality, it links around to some history in the manga that is very useful and that the anime may never adapt, meaning there are a chunk of fans who have no idea about him. This would be a great way to promote a part of the series that was just so fantastic, and Yury was easily the coolest of the bunch from that time. Show some Dreyar love.  14:47, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
