In principle, I agree with your idea. But in practice I feel like it will cause more harm than good. If the problem is that winning nominees (be it a winning article, image, editor, or whatever) receive so few votes, then it seems that we're better off determining why there are so few votes cast, rather than trying to mandate that a nominee passes some certain arbitrary threshold. - '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 13:18, December 1, 2014 (UTC) |

:Well, if we could get more people to participate in the Featured Contents, we don't need to have a threshold. If we could get more participants for the votes / nominees, that's a better solution. But I think this is the case where there are 5 nominees, four of which have 1 vote and one of them has 2 votes, the one with 2 votes becomes featured. I feel like just because a nominee somehow outnumbers the others, it isn't worth featured.
