WikiFur:Featured article candidates/Featured log/December 2005
Pokémon World MUCK[edit]
Yes! The dreaded Pokémon! Most people wouldn't call these creatures furries as such . . . but they're just a stepping-stone away. Unsurprisingly, a lot of younger people are finding their way into the furry fandom through this and other anime-related communities. Indeed, their MUCK community is just as involved, with a focus on roleplay . . . as well as battles, which have been all but forgotten in fandom MUCKs like FurryMUCK. --GreenReaper(talk) 06:38, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
SonicBlu[edit]
I'd like to nominate SonicBlu's article. It has extensive information about a furry celebrity with ties to mainstream fandoms (primarily horror); it is well-organized and highly readable. -- Siege 23:39, 16 Nov 2005 (UTC)
- This article should be chosen because Sonicblu is one of the best known in the furry community and i think he should be mentioned. --Panama Fox
Kimba the White Lion[edit]
Everybody's heard of The Lion King, but Kimba is a little more obscure. This just makes it more important for WikiFur to cover it, especially considering the later wave of anime that has become so popular in the fandom. Few people who watched this movie when it first came out are around today, yet some of them are the same people who went on to found the funny animal fandom, which led (in part) to the furry fandom. --GreenReaper(talk) 05:19, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
Midwest FurFest[edit]
MFF has a long history - over ten years, if you count the furry track at Duckon. For furs from the midwest, and beyond, it's become a nice way to spend the weekend before Thanksgiving. The article could probably have been better at the time it was featured (and now - there's still too little on the unique aspects of MFF as compared to other conventions), but there was more than enough to make a good front page feature. --GreenReaper(talk) 07:06, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
