Discuss nominations for the featured article and the front-page slider here. -Throwawaytv 08:59, September 25, 2011 (UTC)

While season three is airing, we are doing one slider for the latest aired episode, one for the upcoming episode, and two features. Usually they are changed on the first of every month but changes can be discussed at any time. ~Bobogoobo (talk) 09:06, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

April 2015 nominations

With Season 5 around the corner, we'll go back to having the first two sliders featuring the latest aired episode and the next episode respectively. For the remaining ones, I nominate Friendship Rainbow Kingdom castle and Starlight Glimmer.   Golden Bluebird  15:01, March 18, 2015 (UTC)

I agree with Starlight Glimmer. But since April is when IDW is running their "FIENDship is Magic" comic mini-series, I nominate My Little Pony: Fiendship is Magic for the fourth slider.   14:56, March 23, 2015 (UTC)

I'm okay with that choice.   Golden Bluebird  15:38, March 23, 2015 (UTC)

Support Starlight Glimmer and Fiendship is Magic.-- Jonny Manz^talk_contribs^e-mail_{edit count} 20:48, March 23, 2015 (UTC) 

With the Season 5 premiere coming this Saturday, I think now is a good time to switch Rainbow Rocks with Cutie Markless to go along with the anticipation and excitement for this episode. What do you think?   Golden Bluebird  15:31, April 2, 2015 (UTC)

Oh, I forgot to address the nominated articles. I believe they should be featured after Cutie Markless has aired, since Starlight Glimmer is still in the workshop.   Golden Bluebird  15:35, April 2, 2015 (UTC)

Sounds good to me (on both points).   16:45, April 2, 2015 (UTC)

Support both switching out Rainbow Rocks for Cutie Markless and waiting Starlight Glimmer is out of the workshop to place the featured articles.-- Jonny Manz^talk_contribs^e-mail_{edit count} 20:43, April 2, 2015 (UTC) 

Done. Now we just have to wait for the Season 5 premiere to come for the nominated articles to be featured.   Golden Bluebird  05:02, April 3, 2015 (UTC)

The remaining sliders have now been changed.   Golden Bluebird  10:00, April 7, 2015 (UTC)

May 2015 nominations

I nominate Appleloosa and Songs of Harmony. Any other suggestions?   Golden Bluebird  17:50, April 22, 2015 (UTC)

The month is almost over now. Anybody want to discuss this?   Golden Bluebird  17:08, April 28, 2015 (UTC)

Given the upcoming premiere of Appleoosa's Most Wanted, I see nothing objectionable about these choices. Support   17:21, April 28, 2015 (UTC)

Support Seems fine to me.-- Jonny Manz^talk_contribs^e-mail_{edit count} 20:39, April 28, 2015 (UTC) 

And it's done.   Golden Bluebird  05:55, May 2, 2015 (UTC)

June 2015 nominations

Nominating Trouble Shoes and The Smooze for June. Any other suggestions?   Golden Bluebird  02:07, May 20, 2015 (UTC)

Comment Please crop and resize images for use in the slider to 670x360 pixels. Throwy 12:36, May 21, 2015 (UTC)

Front page title: The current front page title is "home", I wonder if {{title}} can be used to "Welcome pony fans!" or a similar welcome message. Throwy 13:07, May 21, 2015 (UTC)

Support The Smooze and Trouble Shoes. Throwy 13:22, May 21, 2015 (UTC)

Slider images resized. On your home page title suggestion, I don't see why not. It sounds a lot less bland than "Home". Also, I'm glad someone remembered this page besides Imperfect, Jonny Manz, and me.   Golden Bluebird  13:51, May 21, 2015 (UTC)

I second the Support for The Smooze and Trouble Shoes - seems appropriate to feature two new characters that featured prominently in their episodes.-- Jonny Manz^talk_contribs^e-mail_{edit count} 20:21, May 21, 2015 (UTC) 

So, now that we're in June, it's time to change the sliders. Any objections before I do it?   Golden Bluebird  06:07, June 1, 2015 (UTC)

No objections here.   16:24, June 1, 2015 (UTC)

And it's done.   Golden Bluebird  17:36, June 1, 2015 (UTC)

July 2015 nominations

I am nominating Background ponies and Friendship is Magic Remixed. Considering the former was the focus of the latest episode and the latter being released this month, I believe these are pretty fitting choices for July. What do you think?   Golden Bluebird  15:04, June 17, 2015 (UTC)

I Support those nominations. They sound good to me. TheGuineaPig45 (talk) 15:34, June 17, 2015 (UTC)

Support Nice picks.      16:34, June 17, 2015 (UTC)

Support Certainly seem like the best picks for the month to me.-- Jonny Manz^talk_contribs^e-mail_{edit count} 05:50, June 18, 2015 (UTC) 

It's done.   Golden Bluebird  12:25, July 1, 2015 (UTC)
