Wiki Pages Nominated to be Featured

This page is for the community to discuss potential featured wiki pages. Pages can be pretty much anything in the AboutUs universe -- articles about domains, people, portals, help topics. For more information on how to Nominated a page to be featured, see FeatureMeNominated.

Notes from the community should be constructive with the ultimate goal of not necessarily creating a site that is going to be Featured, but the goal of creating a dynamite page with great value to the community.

Classic-Apartments.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Nominated on 00:20, 1 January 2008 (PST)
• This page seems to be coming along nicely. Good use of gallery and images. Not sure however, why thumbnail has been removed. Asad | *~talk~* 00:20, 1 January 2008 (PST)
• I think all of those external links should be internal instead. Maybe with a statement about their connection to this website? Competitor? Partner? Etc. TedErnst (talk) 19:14, 4 January 2008 (PST)
• I just added the {{RealEstateMember}} badge to the page. Click on it to see the new Real Estate Area of AboutUs. The badge itself adds you to that area and helps others know what you're up to. And I think the badge looks better when it's inside the domainbox. So, I suggest you add this code to the top of the page, in place of the existing badge:

{{ Domain_Page |
 thumbnail = <thumbnail>Classic-Apartments.com</thumbnail> |
 map = <map section="Address"></map> |
 badges = {{RealEstateMember}}
}}

Please let me know if you have any questions. TedErnst (talk) 12:10, 4 February 2008 (PST)

• The real estate portal logo detracts from the overall appearance of the page, in addition it serves no purpose as there is already a link at the bottom.--Alibermudez 05:48, 8 February 2008 (PST)
  • Alexander, I agree, the temporary logo is awful, we do plan to have a better one designed soon. As far as the DomainPage template, would you consider adding it to the bottom of the page? It is not mandatory but nearly all of the DomainPages we have here, have the template, so it is good for consistency. But it really is a collaborative page we are working on here. Best, MarkDilley
  • Alex would you share your thoughts on restoring the domain toolbox as Mark has stated above so i can process your page for nomination. Other than that this page is ready to be featured. --Sa'ad ^{talk•email•chat} 03:19, 17 March 2008 (PDT)

• Looks great so far, thats a great idea.PensFans4Ever
• Too long... requires scrolling. Too much info, does not encourage people to surf to your site. Links to AboutUs pages that don't exist should be removed. Less is more when you are trying to entice people to your site. WillyP | talk 16:35, 18 December 2007 (PST)

• Shameless begging for donations... well, nothing wrong with asking for donations, but I don't think it should be on your AboutUs page... do you think I would even consider visiting your site with that in mind? Thumbs down on this one. WillyP | talk 17:13, 18 December 2007 (PST)
• I'm not quite understanding the section headings. Yes, I just make the dates into 3rd-level headings because that seems to make sense, but the "description" heading doesn't make sense to me. Are these "updates"? Maybe make that clear somehow? TedErnst (talk) 19:02, 18 December 2007 (PST)

• Since this is a personal website, and mainly in Indonesian language, I am not really sure if it should be featured or not. But if this page turns out to be a great wiki page, I think it can be featured. Right now, however, it needs a lot of improvement. There should be more content on this page, and some images if possible. Basically, this page needs to convince the community members that there is something unique about it that makes it feature worthy. You might want to look at these examples of great wiki pages.

360Innovate.co.uk featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• First nominated on 06:25, 30 September 2007 (PDT)
• A good start, though the page needs a fuller description of the company and contact information, address. The testimonial is great. Also, pruning the categories would be useful to readers. Kasey
• Ok, here are a few things, Section names - try re-inventing some so that it gives the page some individuality, Sections - Try to eliminate or expand sections that do not have information such as "Additional Information", Edit/Remove anything that begins, "Excerpted from..." as this shows that there is stil bot info, Add some contact information, at least a business email or phone or addy, Personally, I am somewhat confused by exactly what the site is about besides multimedia!?!? As Kasey had mentioned try pruning the categories.. I hope this helps. And if you need some more help or ideas, please drop me a line. Bryan Daugherty My Talk Page

Affordable-Web-Solutions.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• First nominated on 07:01, 18 June 2007 (PDT)
• This is a pretty strong WikiPage with good use of graphics to help with the fact it seems a little text heavy. I'm wondering if there are any customer testimonials that can be added to take this page to the next level? -- TakKendrick | Talk
• Emailed the webmaster today to see if there is still interest in working on this page. TedErnst | talk 21:13, 17 September 2007 (PDT)
• I have to agree this is a very great wiki page! I still think that it could outline a few more areas, however, as it stands I do believe it is a contender for a coming featured page. I will try and drop a line or 2 to your user page or email to see what we can do to take it over the top! Bryan Daugherty

• This article might be a contender for featured, but as it stands it is just too wordy, not attractive enough, and does not lure the reader into wanting to read it. More pictures, and less words will make it so much better. Remember, we are creating a teaser to lure readers to click on links that take us to the original page. We are not duplicating the original page. It is this factor that can create a good featured, when the reader wants to read the page, and then wants to click on the links to find out more.

aHey-Embroidery.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• First nominated on 06:35, 27 June 2007 (PDT)
• User:Ahey was actually the page nominated, but it appeared that that info was more suited for the actual aHey-Embroidery.com DomainPage, so I've merged the content and moved the featured nomination as well. -- TakKendrick | Talk 20:07, 2 July 2007 (PDT)
• This is a pretty impressive page. The images are awesome. There's a couple of things that come to mind as potential improvements:
  • Is there contact information that can be added to this WikiPage?
  • Likewise, is there any address information? Even just a city and state adds a little reference point for AboutUs visitors.
  • This page could also potentially benefit from some "Community Reviews" and/or "Customer Testimonials" talking about their experiences with the embroideries from this website.

These are just some suggestions. -- TakKendrick

• Awesome images! Wasim Sajid | :::talk:::
• User:Ahey has been left a talk page message today, asking if s/he wants to return to this nomination, and an email sent to the webmaster for the same. Obed Suhail
• Very Cool, I think perhaps some addressing of the images could help but as it stands a very great wiki page! --Bryan 16:49, 9 October 2007 (PDT)
• Great site, Great pictures, but I feel that the pictures should be incorporated within the article itself, instead of leaving them all in one place. I enlarged the first picture on the left hand side. Pictures should stand out more and should make the article look better when seen while reading it. Patty42 20:42, 28 November 2007 (PST)

ANDANDOGraniteWorktops.co.uk featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Nomination processed on 3-Oct-2007.
• Very cool! I love the picture of the kitchen, however, I think it could be resized which is very easy to do. What I am surprised is that there is quite a bit of information missing for visitors of the page to ascertain the where and who the company is. I think this is vital, the page should be a summary of your companies profile. I think it would be best to add some of this info as well as perhaps a map. You could also prune some of the categories at the bottom so that there arent as many red links. I think you are doing GREAT! I cannot wait to see some more manipulation of this page. I will try and edit the picture so that it fits better, feel free to revert back or mess around with the code you see, (add a few more like the picture on there and it will liven up the page! Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Bryan Daugherty My Talk Page

AskLingo.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Nomination processed on 26 Sept. 2007 (after a nomination from a few weeks ago that had slipped through the cracks).
• Hi Mustafasa - this WikiPage is off to a great start! My few comments would be to a) break free from our original structure, go ahead and make the title what it is and get rid of title! :-) (and description). Also, in a few places you have Asklingo and it seems that the site is AskLingo, just a minor thing really. One thing about your site, it seems, is that you are multilingual! Yea! I would go ahead and list that as text and maybe have direct links from each flag to the language on your site for ease of visitors to this page. Fabulous start! Let me know if I can help in any way. Best, MarkDilley
• Wow, amazing, especially the language factor! I thing this is a strong potential but could use just a few finishing touches. Perhaps we could work together in polishing this up and preping it to be a featured page. For starters, lets break out of the common mold of section headers.. I will be contact you to share a fw more ideas. --Bryan 16:53, 9 October 2007 (PDT)
• A contact or support section is missing. I had a brief visit to your site. Liked what i saw. You know you can add media right into the wikipage? So if you want to setup an example of how a word may be pronounced, just upload the .mp3 file for it and write a bit about it. --Sa'ad ^{: msg me : email :} 05:16, 13 February 2008 (PST)

• Pretty cool idea and website. The WikiPage itself is fairly nice and has a lot of potential as featured candidate. I think maybe a better description about how their process works might be nice, but it's still a strong WikiPage as is. -- TakKendrick | Talk
• Cool idea; a great looking site! Wasim Sajid | :::talk:::

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Nomination processed on 2-Oct-2007.
• Wow, this makes solitaire look fun to me! :) Very nice page. The first thought I had when looking would be that it would be cool to add some articles relating to solitaire strategy (probably for my own benefit though since I am not very good.) But this probably wouldnt help much to become featured. I am not sure what could be added to make this much better. good job! --DaughertyBw 20:53, 5 October 2007 (PDT)
• Nice page. You could add small descriptions with thumbnails of all the games that are part of this package. You have won some awards, those can be added to this wikipage as well. Your partner sites can be added into the Related Domains or even in a separate heading. --Sa'ad ^{: msg me : email :} 04:14, 13 February 2008 (PST)

ChristChurchWarren.org featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• First nominated on 18:13, 20 June 2007 (PDT)
• Awesome WikiPage. I really like the inclusion of the upcoming events and service schedule. The description seems a little light and could maybe use a little bit more, but there's some really great info here, so it's a pretty strong featured candidate. One other thought I had to maybe spice the page up is that we'd love to see some "community reviews" or "testimonials" here; perhaps if members of the congregation would like to come to AboutUs and tell their experiences both with the church and the rector, that could make this a pretty special WikiPage. -- TakKendrick | Talk

• I agree with Tak, the events schedule is a good idea. I might be neat to have pictures from the more significant or annual events, maybe more information about how to participate, the history of the event. Kasey 10:26, 19 September 2007 (PDT)
• This page is definately off to a great strat, a little more info could be used, but I am sure with a little editing this could be one nice featured page...

Clockwork-Epitaph.net featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Nomination processed on 19 Sept. 2007 (after a nomination a few weeks ago that had slipped through the cracks).
• Again, I think that this is another page that needs some serious attention before it can be considered. It is hard to except a page such as this when there is really no information listed except for what the bot has provided. Take a look at some of the already featured pages. I would definately move the Logo up to the top to begin and take a little time adding some relevant information.. here are some examples on what you could add that would be of benefit: About The Website, About The Author(s), Online Literature and story index.. etc. also it may help if you add a few pictures such as from you fan gallery! On another note have you visited the Portal:Writing Lab? It would be great to have you involved. If you need any help, don't be afraid to ask! --DaughertyBw 11:33, 20 September 2007 (PDT)

• Andy, no problem. Why don't you leave a note on my Talk page when you got these finished. I think we might want to feature the whole group (either the hospitality group, or all of Oriel Group -- depending on your inclination). Keep up the great work! -- TakKendrick | Talk

• I'm "switching" this nomination from KudosHospitality.co.uk to CrownGroup.co.uk, since this is the parent company and the feature will no doubt cover all the pages in the group, all of which and being built out nicely.

DiscoverPune.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Nomination processed on 19 Sept. 2007 (after a nomination a few weeks ago that had slipped through the cracks).
• This page needs all sorts of work. I don't believe that the metatags are a good idea for the title section and the description still has yet to be updated from what the original bot has published. The contact and address information is not correctly listed and there is also no additional information of the site. I visited the website and it seems to have a wealth of information, perhaps by using some of this info you can help improve the wiki page about DiscoverPune.com. Take a look at how some of the previously featured pages utilize the page with the use of relevant information, photos and testimonials. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you in editing this page to become featured in the future. --DaughertyBw 13:29, 20 September 2007 (PDT)
• The site has been Updated Since last reviews.So take a look again! Thanx Abhay
• Thanks for the updates Abhay. I think there's still some work to be done here, it might be helpful to look at what some other similar WikiPages have done to give you some ideas. Here are a couple that I think might apply: Vignanam.com and BollywoodSARGAM.com. Both websites are like DiscoverPune.com in that they're really organized information about a variety of things related to a region or a topic. While they take different ways of doing so, their descriptions share this information and say what is on the website. Vignanam.com then shares a sampling of the content, definitions and stories from their page to give AboutUs readers an idea of what they're about. Meanwhile, BollywoodSARGAM.com just spells out the features and provides some external links to those sections on their website. Both are fairly effective. Hopefully these will give you some ideas; again, thanks the updates and keep up the hard work. -- TakKendrick | Talk 13:56, 9 October 2007 (PDT)
• SIte is just having mainly PAY PER CLICK ADS, Google Ads, Affiliate ads and wants to be listed to earn rather. The info is copied from other online Directories. Rather remove it.

• Nomination processed on 26 Sept. 2007 (after a nomination from a few weeks ago that had slipped through the cracks).
• This page needs some more work in my opinion. Especially with bot information still listed and as well as the categories section, perhaps by adding some more info to the categories or rearranging them such as on Cluster Page (i.e. since being diagnosed section, listed medications), also there seems to be alot of red internal links, which some look like could be easily created or pruned just by a few clicks. If you need any help, just leave me a message on my talk page. Good Luck. Bryan Daugherty, Talk Page
• I agree with Brian on this - the categories section in particular should be reorganized (are the external links necessary/useful here). I'd like to see some more images and some related links as well. ChrisBabson, talk

• You did a good job with your bolding techiniques as well as have a wealth of information. I like the page however I suggest just a few things, 1.) I would remove the Discussion section headline on top and just leave the info under as part of the title section, 2.) add a few more pictures to liven up the page and 3.) add some links within the information listed or an external link section. other then that I think you are on your way! If you need any help, or would like to see an example of what I am referring to, dont be afraid to ask. Bryan Daugherty, Bryan's Talk Page

• Sweet page! ChrisBabson
• I like this page, and I'd like to see more. The page has good visuals, but seems thin on actual information. Could you add more? TedErnst | talk 22:46, 19 September 2007 (PDT)
• FYI - webmaster hasn't been back since May 2007, so deletion removed in Oct 2007, then restored when webmaster returned, Oct 2007
• I just wanted to leave a note thanking User:FightTimes for updating with the latest cover. I agree with Ted's thoughts above -- maybe adding some extra "meat" to the descriptions could really help this nomination. In terms of recommendations, I'm not entirely sure, but maybe subscription, submission information, and WikiLinks to some of the sponsors and suppliers listed on the website's front page. Again, thanks to User:FightTimes for coming back and it's good to see this returned to the Featured nomination pool. TakKendrick | Talk 22:31, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

• This is a really great page! The only thing that seems missing to me is InternalLinks. Don't we have any related content already on AboutUs that could be linked? TedErnst | talk 08:35, 6 October 2007 (PDT)
  • Alternatively, what about doing Interwiki links for all of these? I've set up FortWiki in our interwiki database. Even though I know the people at Fort Wiki already know how to do it (since John's the one who taught me), let me give an example for any community member wanting to learn: [[FortWiki:Fort]] goes to the [[Fort]] page on www.fortwiki.com. Naturally, you can magic pipe if you like so that [[FortWiki:Fort|fort]] just shows the word "fort" and the link. -- TakKendrick | Talk 10:55, 9 October 2007 (PDT)
    • Great idea. And, I'd still like to know what else related already lives on AboutUs.org. So maybe both? TedErnst | talk 11:28, 9 October 2007 (PDT)

Maybe you want to upload the images so that you can move them around the page more, just an idea. Also, maybe you want to use RightTOC.

Try expanding the more information section to include some text, even if it is brief. This will help fill out the page better and inform visitors to this wiki page about your company. You will notice the template on the top that I have added to make the page resolve. Also, many featured sites here on AboutUS use images or videos to liven up the page..

• Translated AboutUS pages are some of my favorite. However, there needs to be a little more info posted on this wiki page. I think the opportunity to add some informative youtube videos exists for this page and could really help! also try moving the logo up towards the top. You could try and edit the section names and give the page a little more individuality. I do love the fact that there are no red links! However, having empty sections such as "Additional Information" does not help!

• Sounds like an interesting service. The category section could use some editing as could the related domains. A decription of how it works would engage reader more than a link. Kasey 16:26, 12 July 2007 (PDT)

• Motofanatics -- wow you really added a bunch of great stuff over the weekend! Awesome! BTW: I made a few quick edits, for some reason the image of the store you were linking to was giving Firefox an error. For some reason it was coming across as a really small image (like around 2") but with a very high resolution and the system didn't seem to know how to draw it. I went ahead and uploaded a corrected version to AboutUs (with a more standard resolution and much bigger), but thought I'd let you know about it. The actual image (on AboutUs) can be found at Image:MotoFanatics.png. You can also view my edits to the motofanatics.com page in the history for the page as well. Keep up the great work!

  • Thank you for your tips! I just registered and will spend some time polishing up this page. Orien Wu
• I'm a pretty active member of ofallthedays and I find the concept behind the idea very appealing. Peoples' days really do tell a lot about themselves and as more people from around the world join, you'll get to read about what other people around the world experience in their daily lives. In my opinion, the idea behind ofallthedays is very intelligent and yet, very simple. I've found my membership there to be very exciting. - Megan
• I just saw this on Google and wanted to chime in as well. As Megan already mentioned, ofallthedays does a great job of allowing people from around the world to make posts about their day (the website shows the latest 5). The forum also includes sub-forums for various areas around the world for people to discuss specific things relevant only to their area.

RecyclingForCharities.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• First nominated on 09:38, 22 September 2007 (PDT)
• I for one am quite excited about this nomination, because I get the sense that this organization is doing a great job in helping to take consumer waste (old cell phones, ink cartridges) and finding a way to have these benefit other charities. That said, there's probably some work to be done to really polish up the WikiPage before it's "Feature worthy". Some basic thoughts:
  • More information about the Recycling for Charities organization
  • Information on the charities this organization helps (and by donating an old cell phone, can I choose specifically which charity, or does my support go towards a general pool)
  • This could lead to some basic "frequently asked questions" about the organization, the charities and how the process works
  • Maybe a testimonial from a charity that's been helped by this organization...

Just some of my quick thoughts. I hope they help, as I said I'm very interested in helping to nurture this as a "featured" candidate and helping to build out a great resource on this organization right here on AboutUs. -- TakKendrick | Talk 17:00, 3 October 2007 (PDT)

SocialDeviancy.com featured discussion

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Added to nomination process on 5 June 2007, from an old nomination that hadn't been processed.
• I for one, love that this page was nominated, in part because of the question it raises. Although the website is not pornographic in nature, it does carry and "adult" warning due to content, and I wonder whether it's appropriate to spotlight this kind of website given that AboutUs is a resource for some younger people as well as those who might be more conservative that this website might offend. While I don't personally have a problem with this stuff (and am pleased that such issues are address on the internet), is this something the AboutUs community feels should be spotlighted? -- TakKendrick | Talk
  • Was this question ever resolved, Tak? It seems like an unusual amount of site for a nomination to sit idle without any resolution at all. Did the submission happen to slip through the cracks again? =( - Vaelor 23:29, 12 July 2007 (PDT)
    • Hi Vaelor. Perhaps the purpose of my message last month here wasn't clear. This is the place for the discussion to take place on this. I'd been waiting for people from the community to come and discuss this here. I know that several AboutUs community members have looked at the nominees list, although no one has made a comment on this nomination or issue. And no, a month isn't an unusual amount of time on these, depending on buy-in from the community. Generally after two or three months, the discussion on featured nominations are "closed" to keep the nominees list paired down (although the option is always available to renominate pages that have been worked on).

I'm sorry if this has been confusing, with as many nominations as we get, once we've left a message with concerns or suggested actions to take the ball really is in the court of the WikiPage builder and community. I've been watching this page (both the main SocialDeviancy.com and the Feature Discussion) for several month and waiting for action or comment.

If you'd like to see a good example of the kind of community discussion that can promote a page (with similar concerns), see: RFSHQ.com. -- TakKendrick | Talk 12:11, 13 July 2007 (PDT)

• Thanks for your prompt reply Tak. Obviously the community just isn't paying any attention to the nomination, or have decided it has not enough merit to even warrant a brief response. I guess it's out of my hands either way, but thanks for your consideration anyhow. - Vaelor 19:45, 13 July 2007 (PDT)

I understand that Tak's concerns about this site's being appropriate or not to get featured are quite realistic, and also feel that some people might find it offensive. Personally however, I'd love to have it featured. Asad | *~talk~* 02:21, 24 October 2007 (PDT)

• Alright, You are doing a great job and I like some of the things you have added such as the youtube video, which I feel could be used much more in featues sites. Also, the header is really cool! However, heres a few things I noticed that make the page not ready in my opinion, -the red links.. only link something internally if it has a corresponding article (unless you plan to go back and add those articles in the future. Also, the content section could be expanded or condensed depending on how you approach it. There is also the ability to remove or slide over the "toc" (table of contents).

• This page looks good and will become a stronger candidate with some contact information and an address. Obed Suhail 02:47, 10 November 2007 (PST)

• Seems as if someone added contact information and email address. I like this article I think it is almost ready to be Featured. but it needs further editing, the writing above is just too overpowering and repititious. Repeating the Suttle name is annoying and takes away from the article itself. also no need to have the history of the Suttle person. A click on the link will bring all that to life. I am going to copyedit this tomorrow.Patty42 20:11, 28 November 2007 (PST)

• I did a full copyedit and removed excess picture. Article is now ready to be featured. Done done Patty42 08:13, 29 November 2007 (PST)

• One thing I really loved is the "Suttle's Music" section, with the music samples. That really makes the difference on this page. And I think the page is ready to rock and roll ;) Cle Silva 14:16, 20 February 2008 (PST)
• Did some page formatting. Removed another picture that was confusing. --Sa'ad ^{: msg me : email :} 21:48, 20 February 2008 (PST)

• Edit/Add to this Discussion
• Added to nomination process on 6 June 2007, from an old nomination that hadn't been processed.
• This certainly is coming along nicely. A lot of information. I wonder about how to maybe infuse some graphical elements into the WikiPage though. Pictures of the gemstones perhaps? Or just the website logo? I just think a few images would polish this up nicely. -- TakKendrick 15:43, 6 June 2007 (PDT)
• The page looks nice but it still needs some graphical elements, as Tak mentioned above. Right now there doesn't seem to be much activity going on there. Asad | *~talk~* 20:29, 10 October 2007 (PDT)
• I liked this page - good, detailed information provided here on Tanzanite which is very useful. I also found http://www.lapigems.com and Tanzanite.com to be good sources.
• More work was done on this page in November and it looks pretty good now. I'm moving it from Last Chance to Under Discussion section for now. Obed Suhail 06:00, 27 December 2007 (PST)
• Moving to LastChance today after no work on the page in quite some time. Please edit this discussion and/or the page to make the nomination active again. Asad | *~talk~* 04:17, 29 February 2008 (PST)

• Nomination process on 2-Oct-2007, after being nominated a few weeks ago.
• The page looks great but there are a couple of things that might be done to improve it further. The first thing that strikes me here is that there is no contact information on this page. Also, it will be great, if we can have an image or two of the product itself on this page. Asad | *~talk~* 06:00, 16 October 2007 (PDT)
• Good to see the product images added to this page. It's much further along now, but there's still no contact information or address on this page. The related domains section could be worked on too. Asad | *~talk~* 21:05, 21 November 2007 (PST)
• I agree with Asad. Great page. With contact info, I think it's good to go. TedErnst (talk) 16:39, 19 February 2008 (PST)
• I edited some sections and replaced a (not much attractive) picture by a better one (in my opinion). Just revert the changes if you don't like it. Also, I agree that since it's a commercial page, it needs at least a phone number for contact. I felt very tempted to place the toll free number they have on their site, but I was affraid they wouldn't agree with that. I liked the image gallery, however the images are lacking some description. Cle Silva 02:34, 21 February 2008 (PST)
• After Cle's comments, I now see how much better this page could be with just a little more work one product descriptions (and even links to the pages for those products on your site?), plus the contact info, of course. TedErnst (talk) 08:27, 21 February 2008 (PST)

One area that might make this page better is to help alleviate concerns others might have that this service could be used to create spam. What safeguards do you offer for the email receivers to avoid this. Asad | *~talk~* 23:04, 28 October 2007 (PDT)

• • TrafficWave.net uses a "double opt-in" confirmation which requires any submissions and/or subscription requests to be confirmed before their address can be entered in to the system.

For example, someone filling out a TrafficWave.net subscription form would receive a system confirmation message asking them to confirm that they did, indeed, request the information. They will then click a system-generated link to confirm. If the link is not confirmed, the address is not added to the database.

• Processed the nomination from an older one on 3-Oct-2007.
• This looks like this company doesn't have an actual domain name/website, which is fine. I'm just making this note, because if there is a domain website, this information and "featured discussion" might better be served on that DomainPage. -- TakKendrick
• That said, we're more than happy to consider this "user page" for a Featured WikiPage, some thoughts for improvements would be to take this page and treat it much like a regular "domain page" and really fill this out with:
  • Contact info (phone number/address/email)
  • Product information and photos
  • Where to buy information (including online purchases if available)
  • Testimonials or other press release information

These are just some of my quick thoughts. -- TakKendrick | Talk 16:23, 3 October 2007 (PDT)

• Cool wikipage! I really like your logo. In order to improve the page and earn a featured spot, I would add additional sections on the wikipage about the various sections of your forum. Contributing Testimonials or Community Reviews from some of your contributors could also really make your page stand out.

• This page is very intersting! However, I do not see any information regarding the voice training workshops. This could definately be helpful for those who come across the page to see what VoiceBazaar.com has to offer! Also, by adding some links to the 'additional information' that are listed would make for a great reference! The Picture is great, but the Domain Box and Contact Info needs some attention. I will try and make some constructive edits to it and see how it looks. They can always be reverted if it is not something you like!--DaughertyBw 07:23, 17 September 2007 (PDT)
• I took the liberty of fixing the domain box as well as moving it so it isnt blocked by your nice photo! I also centered the photo, I hope this helps you in your quest to be a featured page! --DaughertyBw 09:51, 17 September 2007 (PDT)

• Cool website. Perhaps this WikiPage is a little spartan. It could maybe benefit from a little more information about the information on the website, even if it's just a more robust list of topics covered on the site. -- TakKendrick | Talk
• Daria, you mention "web design and development, blogging, social networking, marketing, making money online, having fun, quality information, useful tools and inspiration." This all sounds great. And, to make it a strong wiki page worthy of feature, I'd like to know more. I'd like some short examples or quotes for some (or all) of these. What do you think? TedErnst | talk 23:21, 19 September 2007 (PDT)
• Yeah, this page is still a work in progress. I will, however, work on expanding on the topics a bit. Daria Black 22:20, 20 September 2007 (PDT)

• Nomination processed on 26 Sept. 2007 (after a nomination from a few weeks ago that had slipped through the cracks).
• You may notice the NoWebsite template I added, this is because the page is currently an article and not a domain page. The information is still valid, however it should be redirected to a domain page setup. As far as the information that you have listed, it seems you are off to a decent start, Try adding some more info and a better description of the site. You may also find that the TOC (table of Content) is not needed as well. Check out some of the past featured pages here on AboutUs to get some more ideas on how to develop the page. If you need any help, leave me a message on my talk page and I will help you.. Bryan Daugherty, Talk Page
• There was a spelling mistake in the article's name. The correct article is WoodbridgeInvestments.com, which now has a link to this discussion. I also added the company's address from its Better Business Bureau report, but it bothers me that a company wouldn't include its address on its web site. --Eohippus 17:33, 26 September 2007 (PDT)

• Leok7v - this is a great start. I like that you have let folks know exactly what your website / application is all about! I would go ahead and break free of our page structure of title and description and make them be the title and description :-) I also think that you could pizzazz up the WikiPage a little bit. Maybe check out Featured for some ideas of how other folks have done it. I do have a couple ideas if you want to touch base with me, that would be great! Best, MarkDilley
• This certainly seems like a good start. In addition to Mark's thoughts, what about adding system requirements for both the Mac and Windows versions. I'd also suggest adding some WikiLinks to other AboutUs pages like Mac and Windows. I'll go ahead and make a few for you. TakKendrick | Talk 14:17, 17 October 2007 (PDT)

Last Chance

These are WikiPages nominated some months ago, that are about to be taken out of consideration for featuring due to lack of comments or improvements to the page. Please see the individual comments and make more. WikiPages on this list which have improvements made will be moved back into the "Still Under Discussion" section. Pages that have been sitting on the potentials list for a couple of months and haven't had any work done on them. Ideally, pages on this list have had their author(s) contacted (if contact info is available). We'll cull this list down every couple of weeks.

• This certainly has a lot of potential. Nice WikiPage. There's a few image links that don't seem to exist currently, and there's a few "blank" spaces that appear to be left to be filled in at some point. If these things were taken care of, this would certainly be a strong Featured candidate. -- TakKendrick | Talk 11:05, 10 July 2007 (PDT)

• Good job on Uv10.com! The basic information and logo are all in place. Now to push your page to the next level, I would add additional images of Brazilian developments and a few customer testimonials to give your page that added depth and information. Great start and keep up the good work. -- Blake Hinckley 14:52, 28 June 2007 (PDT)

• Good use of images to bring your page to life! The jacket looks great. I would consider adding a gallery of images. For more information on how to do this, contact us on IRC chat or see recent featured pages. Adding customer testimonials and community reviews can also really improve the quality of a page. I think the Description section could also use some more information: how are the clothes made? where are they primarily sold? where are they made? You're off to a great start. Keep up the good work. -- Blake Hinckley 14:56, 28 June 2007 (PDT)

• Sorry for responding so late. Would you still be interested in working on this page? I think it would be great to have a product gallery on this page, and maybe a testimonials section, and some layout tweaks. The images on this page right now are great but maybe they can be a bit smaller? Asad | *~talk~* 03:12, 9 January 2008 (PST)
