What makes a featured article become a featured article? By which I mean, once it is nominated, what criterion exist that it has to meet to finally become the featured article? A certain number of votes? Does it only have a limited amount of time to exist as a nominee? I couldn't find this information on the page, and I was just wondering! - Prof. Ahh(to the)Diddums^{[FUCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!]} 09:11, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

The article with the most votes at the end of the day where rcmurphy is. There's also the stagnation rule and the darwin rule but let us not get into that :D —Braydie 12:29, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Don't forget the subterfuge and chicanery. --Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 16:56, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Ah, Diddums... I don't want to be a party spoiler, but you're not a Sir yet. You become "noble" when your article passes the VFH test, not just for it being nominated. -- herr doktor needsAbolt  [scream!] 16:59, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

I just added that title to be silly hehe, not in reference to my status on the site itself. Though I'll change it, until the glorious day which I am knighted! - Prof. Ahh(to the)Diddums^{[FUCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!]} 21:28, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Comment This tells me two things: We're around the same age, and we both like B movies :) ~ 17:32, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Precisely! I saw that one again last week. Alas, we need an article on The Thing. :D -- herr doktor needsAbolt  [scream!] 17:41, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

• I like to stay on the move to avoid detection. I have a safehouse on every continent and two in Antarctica, from which I can coordinate my team of crack Uncyc editors. Most of the edits by "Rcmurphy" aren't actually from him, but one of his cronies. —rc (t) 18:04, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
