I do not believe we've run out of quality articles, I simply think the good articles are not being nominated, for whatever reason. Please weigh in on any way to solve this problem. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LiR</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">speak</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">read</font>]]</sup>''' 04:59, October 18, 2012 (UTC)
:I kinda agree that community awareness is decreasing. Ultimately, the Featured Article might end up with only administrators' decisions to see which is eligible to become "featured". I don't encourage this, because wikia is a collaborative creation and people need to get involved. This, however, might be just in case. When in doubt, well, we could postpone it to one article per month...

::I personally am not sure whether it's a lack of awareness or a lack of interest in participating. I've said in the past that I think the system in place is too complicated, and it ends up scaring a lot of people away (Featured Articles used to get a lot of anon votes, but not anymore). I'm not sure if that's the reason why this has happened, but I'd prefer to simplify the selection process rather than make it an administrative choice because, as you said, this is a collaborative project. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LiR</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">speak</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">read</font>]]</sup>''' 16:43, October 18, 2012 (UTC)
