The Zelda Wiki has editing standards, right? Well some people, like me, are more visual learners. Instead of reading what you guys want to see on the Zelda Wiki, maybe we should also be given good examples of good articles.
Like, there could be somewhere on the wiki, which give links to good examples of articles of what you guys want to see. Like for instance....
"A good example of a dungeon article." "Good example of a character article." "Good example of an enemy/boss" article, "Good example of an area article". etc.
I think it would be really good for people, so that they know better how the other articles could be formatted and improved. And *cough*, it would help me too... >_>
So what do you think?

Good idea... for the moment featured articles also serve that purpose. I don't know if a wiki page should be dedicated to it... but you could use a thread here!

Featured articles aren't exactly what I would consider a place for good examples. Because it doesn't have a featured article for every 'category' yet.

I know they don't have one for every category... but they are examples of what you're asking for. The reason there isn't ones for all categories is because they don't meet the featured quality... so they'll take some work.

Agreed* The featured articles do serve their purpose but when stumbling upon something that can't quite be formatted like the F.A.s then something else would be helpful for a measuring tool or something. I'd just make a list or something. I would think a page like that on wiki would be allowed and placed in the help pages or so.

Unfortunately, I don't see any articles such as enemies or dungeons being featured anytime soon, because most enemies and dungeons have little information to begin with.
Isn't it possible to have an article that is good, but doesn't have to be a featured article? Basically what Axiomist said.

It can be good... but the featured articles are the best one's to go by for quality standards. Anyway, I've got no problem with you making a page for your idea...

The problem with featured articles is that new featured articles almost barely show up, and that there isn't one for every category.
Well if you have no problem with it, then good.....

Yeah... you can get to work with it. If you want a featured article for every category, then that's incentive to work on them.

Yeah. But my problem is, I don't have any examples of what those kinds of articles should be like... I mean for those certain category of articles.
