Vote for an article you find excellent. Please add new nominations on the top.
Initial nominations do not count as a vote For. Please use "Nomination and For" or some iteration thereof if you wish to vote for your nomination.
When voting For or Against, please change the score number accordingly—this saves a lot of time later.
IP votes carry half the weight of registered votes.
Nonsigned votes and votes without timestamps will be struck out, so make sure you sign your votes with ~~~~ or press the "your signature with timestamp" button () above the edit box.
When nominating an article, the template Template:VFH should be added to the end of the article using {{VFH}}. Anything you add {{VFH}} to also shows up in Category:Feature nomination.
Failed VFH nominations should only be archived/removed by the sysops who pay attention to this sort of thing.
Previous featured articles can be found on the archive pages.
Voters: don't be dicks and do be constructive with criticism. Writers: Don't be prima donnas. Be open to criticism.
Articles from all namespaces (including UnNews, HowTo, UnBooks, etc.) are eligible for VFH. Votes against articles based on namespace prejudice will be discarded.
If your article doesn't make it to the front page, don't despair. It may be eligible to be Quasi-featured so long as it meets certain criteria.
THIS IS A VOTE, NOT A DISCUSSION.
If you feel the need to whine or start flamewars please do it HERE.
Current Nominations (new stuff at top, prefix votes with * )
SELF-NOMINATION REGULATION: self-nominated articles (i.e. you write an article and then decide to nominate it yourself) must spend at least one week on Pee Review OR receive one critique via Pee Review before nomination. Articles nominated by people other than the author can still be nominated at any time and require no review (though it is still recommended).
VFH IS NOT A DISCUSSION PAGE. If you'd like constructive criticism for your article, please submit it to Uncyclopedia:Pee Review.
NEW VOTE SYSTEM TRYOUT: We're trying out a new way to vote. See template:Vote for instructions, and leave comments at Forum:Template:Vote.

Against. It should appeal to the nerd in me, but...it's more of a gimmick than a page. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 05:25, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Against...although my vote could be changed. Here's what happened: I looked at the article. It hurt my eyes and I went away in glazy-eyed incomprehension. Then I came back to view the link and discovered what the deal was. Somehow it needs to be made more obvious what the article is about....maybe a line at the top, something like "So, I bought myself this shiny new keyboard! Hmm. Something's different. Let me plug it in..."?--Sir Shandon 10:15, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Nominating and for. Nice rewrite by Nakedman. Notice that this article is not random at all: it's perfectly coherent with its title and draws its humor for what it doesn't deliver. Ignoring the band is a very ironic comment on its real relevance. -- herrdoktorneedsAcorpse[scream!] 19:37, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, boy but is it going to become a tradition to take doomed articles and rewrite them with chemistry topics? ЖKalirwith all the grace of a tin can 00:14, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Abstain. I was going to vote Against. Then I read the talk page & thought the talk page was more funny than the article. Then I read the article again. Maybe I'll vote For if it gets another appropriate picture or something to grab the reader a bit better.--Sir Shandon 10:00, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Okay, okay, I fleshed out the text and dropped the "this reporter" bit. I didn't wanna, but I am bowing to peer pressure for the greater good of Uncyclopedia. Jeez, the things I do for this website...back in my day it was "this reporter this" and "this reporter that". Kids these days! SirModusoperandiBoinc! 02:33, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

For, though it's been bugging me that a lot of really good articles have been too short lately, like this very short article. If the trend continues I may start voting "against" stuff on the grounds of being too short. --Wehpudicontok--Welcome to Vaporstory! 03:01, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

This is an ad parody that was made with recording in mind; I figured that the joke would wear thin with a 7 minute recording, ya know? And while I do agree that some small articles could use expansion to heighten their funny, I think that some shorties-but-goodies are warranted (like this one; if only because I entertain myself...and the opposite is a hard pill to swallow). :) --THINKER 01:00, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Self-nom for re-feature: I know that this article has already been featured, but that was way back in 2005 when the voting system was not very established. A few weeks ago I looked at some old articles of mine and found that, though good in 2005, some were mostly cruft now, and would not survive VFD if they were not "featured" articles. I decided to refurbish Phonics and try to bring it to 2007 quality. Hopefully this is only the first in many refurbishing efforts of my 2005 featured articles. See the difference for yourself. --» Sir SavethemoosesGrandCommandingOfficer ... holla atcha boy» 16:36, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
For A completely new article! This one is worth featuring; the old one would have almost made VFD. Rogpyvbc 18:47, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Dig I didn't see it when it was first featured, and its damn funny now. --THINKER 22:31, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Delist It's good that you're sprucing up your old stuff, and I hope others follow your lead. But I don't think re-featuring an article is a good precedent to set. --Cap'n Sir BenGUNWotMVFHVFP 00:18, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Unconvinced True, this article is leaps, bounds, and phonics better than the old version, but still, I don't know if this is exactly right. Should we really go to this sort of highlighting method? Doesn't seem fair, when the honor hath already been bestowedeth.-SirLjlego, GUNVFHFIYCWotMSGWHotMPWotMAotMEGAEDMANotM+ (Talk) 20:20, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Conditional for per consensus that refeaturing is OK. This article certainly deserves it, both for being outstanding and for being so different than it used to be. --Wehpudicontok--Welcome to Vaporstory! 23:18, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Erm, I meant pending consensus... that is, if we reach a consensus. I'm proposing a consensus on this, and if we say yes then my vote is For. Sorry. --Wehpudicontok--Welcome to Vaporstory! 02:35, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Clarification I would be more than willing to "un-feature" the old Phonics and apply the feature to only this version, if that changes anything. I just think that as the standard is raised, old featured articles should be held to that standard. --» Sir SavethemoosesGrandCommandingOfficer ... holla atcha boy» 01:42, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, this is a good point. The originally featured article is appalling. If many of the other 2005 features are this bad then perhaps the featured status of all of them should be reviewed.--Kelpan 15:16, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Well, the difference is overwhelming and the first one does suck (sorry original author). You know what, screw it. I'm voting for it!-SirLjlego, GUNVFHFIYCWotMSGWHotMPWotMAotMEGAEDMANotM+ (Talk) 20:54, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Very Strong For. This is an amazing improvement over the original article. Finally, one that doesn't say anime fans are [insert insult here].

I'm gonna think on my vote for a while.
