:As for how we would implement a 'curation system,' I'm not sure. Ideally we would have community input, but if worse comes to worse and no one is involved in the decision, there would need to be some way to handle it. I'm not particularly keen on simply having the featured article randomly chosen via < choose > tags. Additionally, it would be prudent that there is some sort of system in place to weed out those past FA articles that [[Sarah Crittur|are no longer (or never really were) Featured Article calibur]]. - '''[[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>''' 18:26, April 11, 2015 (UTC)

::Late bump, but I have an idea that would help somewhat with finding featured articles... my idea is that we would have article ratings, and trusted editors could evaluate an article and give it a rating depending on a variety of factors, mostly about how well the page is laid out and the quality of the text. Only articles above a certain rating can be nominated and featured, and if their rating falls before they get featured the nomination is suspended. Not sure if it helps with the embarrassing "oh no we don't have a featured article for this month", but it will at least weed out the crap that gets selected just because it's nominated. --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 14:33, June 18, 2015 (UTC)
