Guffingford FAC Vote (5/0/0)

Please remember to sign your votes with 4 tildes ( ~~~~) and update the vote tally when you vote.

Support

1. I support for the reasons stated below. This is a well written article and offers spectacular information over the nation of Guffingford; not to mention, this article has received an outstanding amount of traffic since it was first begun. In my opinion, I see no reason why this shouldn't be a featured article. Macabees 20:44, 29 December 2005 (GMT)
2. I agree with Mac. It's getting even better. (Edit: And I think the OOC Preamble thing is one of the most original additions to an article we've seen for a while.) --Pacitalkia 00:20, 30 December 2005 (GMT)
3. I'm also supporting this! Not only because I wrote everything, but it deserves a place on the featured articles list. And I'll see if I can improve the layout, I've been seriously messing around with the Wiki code. - Guffingford, posted on the last day of 2005! Guffingford 11:18, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
4. I'm changing my vote to yes after Guffingford's changes which seriously improved it. → Ceo \ squawk 16:15, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
5. As an in toto article, I'm not sure it's the example to set, but it is a well-composed, interesting read, and there's certainly plenty that would make for a good FA slot on the main page, as it's split into sections, so I'd support it. Out of interest, why did you take the colour out of the parties section at the bottom? I thought that looked better will colours than grey. Gruen2alk 17:50, 31 December 2005 (GMT)

Oppose

Neutral

1. I find that although the content is brilliant, the layout is a bit difficult. → Ceo \ squawk 05:04, 30 December 2005 (GMT)

Comments/Questions

• Ceo, I see your point. But what about the layout is difficult? --Pacitalkia 20:37, 30 December 2005 (GMT)
  • Yes, sorry I was a bit unclear. I mean that the mix of OOC, IC, OOC tags, tables without borders and such make it a bit hard to figure out what the nation is, what it stands for, what's important and what's not, etc. → Ceo \ squawk 20:45, 30 December 2005 (GMT)Edit: It looks better now. → Ceo \ squawk 16:15, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
• I think the language with regards to Knootian independence could stand to be a little more NPOV. I'll try to fix a bit of it myself. --|Knoot|KNOOtalk 02:19, 3 January 2006 (GMT)

FAC

I decided to give this FAC status. I think it well deserves it, being the target of many viewers and readers, and moreover, well written and highly factual. So, in my opinion it deserves a go.

Willink

I would like to say i am ashamed of whoever messed up your page, Guffingford.

Huh?

Who messed up my page? Never noticed anything being wrong.

The article

Great page so far! Though, I don't know why the Sarzonian dollar is worth more than the Pacitalian douro according to your numbers. ;) The dollar is worth D0.91 on the stat calculators and D0.39 in RPs. --Pacitalkia 19:46, 28 November 2005 (GMT)

A reply

Yeah, it kinda came to me as a surprise as well. I used the nseconomy statistics to calculate the exchange rates between currencies, and it shows there's not much difference between nations. Since the frightening takes away all major diffirences, you can clearly see this in the results.

Anyway, if you have a custom currency value, do add it!

Colors

I need to find a suitable color table for my parties. The orange-blue-red had a too high contrast and were too bright. Although I very much like the grey - very easy to look at - I agree color looks better, provided they fit into some kind of pastel palette.
