UESPWiki:Featured Articles
Featured articles are articles the site's editors deem to be of the highest quality and should be held up as an example for other articles. Articles are nominated for this status below. The site's editors then review the nominees for content, style, completeness, and overall quality and place their vote. High quality images can be nominated for featured status at Featured Images.
Previous nominations are archived here.
Featured Article Process[edit]
Nomination[edit]
Any registered member can nominate any article at any time. Nominated articles should be of high quality and meet the site's style guidelines. They will frequently be recently completed articles or articles that have just undergone a substantial rewrite, but older articles are also suitable candidates.
To nominate an article, list it on the bottom of this page with a three-tier heading, (===Example===
), and briefly explain why you think the article should be given featured status.
Voting[edit]
After an article has been nominated, any registered member can vote to support or oppose each nomination. Each member can only vote once for a given article, but a member may change his/her vote by striking out the original vote and replacing it with the revised vote.
To vote on an article, state whether you support or oppose the article for featured article status. A vote should be in bold, and all votes must be signed. For example:
* '''Support''': <Comment> --~~~~
or
* '''Oppose''': <Comment> --~~~~
Commenting with your vote is optional, but if you oppose a nomination, please state how the article must be improved to get your support for featured status.
If you are not yet ready to vote but would still like to add your thoughts, you may use:
* '''Comment''': <Comment> --~~~~
or
* '''Question''': <Question> --~~~~
And fill in your concerns or questions.
Decisions[edit]
UESP Administrators will periodically make decisions on article nominations. Decisions will only be made if:
- The article has been nominated for more than seven days.
- Five or more votes have been placed.
- A clear consensus has been reached (either supported or opposed for featured status).
Nominations not meeting these criteria will be left open until a decision can be reached.
Articles whose nominations pass will receive featured article status on the front page for at least two weeks and receive a small bronze star () on the top right corner. If an article achieves featured status before the present featured article's two weeks expire, it must wait its turn.

Nominations and Votes[edit]
Lore:Blades[edit]
Renominating the page. It previously did not pass as it and Dragonguard were not separate pages. The issue has been addressed. The page deserves to be featured considering the overhaul it went through.
- Support: As nominator.Zebendal (talk) 13:32, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support -Dcsg (talk) 00:09, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose: Not ready yet. The membership section has omissions and could use a reorganization, similar to the one on Dragonguard. Paarthurnax isn't mentioned once, nor are any of the arcane practices of the group, such as the Dragonslayer's Blessing. The Rise and Fall of the Blades mentions that Storm Talon Temple and Wind Scour Temple, 'lost' by ESO's time, were eventually used as strongholds by the Blades, which the article makes no mention of. Mindtrait0r (talk) 00:27, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
- Support: While I preferred the Blades and Dragonguard stay the same article it still remains really good. The Rim of the Sky (talk) 05:34, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
Skyrim:Serana[edit]
An impressive catalogue of dialogue and AI behavior. Has three unconfirmed bugs, but I think it qualifies.
- Support: As nominator. Mindtrait0r (talk) 02:15, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Support: Very thorough article! The Rim of the Sky (talk) 05:34, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
Lore:Ayleid Empire[edit]
Detailed and comprehensive, lore page that talks about topics from lore, which were established very long ago, yet the page is fairly recent. Very good addition to the wiki.
- Support: As nominator.Tyrvarion (talk) 09:16, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- Support: A great recent addition, long absent in our coverage. —Legoless (talk) 11:26, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: As this article's main contributor: there's still some work to be done, I recently realized that I inaccurately conflated Heldon Bridge with the Imperial City's bridge and I think that Umaril's rise to power (being summoned, according to the Songs) could use mention, but it has come a long way and I very much appreciate the nomination! Mindtrait0r (talk) 01:52, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
Neutral: Its good but I feel there might still be some stuff missing, its rarely mentioned directly by name so we may only have half the info.A section on how hierarchy and rulership worked exactly would be tight, a couple edits and I think it could be feature-worthy.The Rim of the Sky (talk) 05:34, 20 April 2023 (UTC)- Comment: Thank you for the suggestions! I recently found some conflicts that needed to be added, did some formatting, and added the leadership section you requested. Don't think this is a bid to change your vote btw, I know it probably seems that way, I just want you to know I took the critique to heart. Mindtrait0r (talk) 22:08, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
- Support: The leadership section looks great and improves the article a ton! I think its easily feature-worthy now :) The Rim of the Sky (talk) 23:07, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

Lore:War of Betony[edit]
A well written article detailing various contradicting points of view of a war that is confusing on its own. This article helps clear things up.
- Support: As nominator. --Zebendal (talk) 21:25, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
- Support: The way the article deals with the conflicting sources is particularly good. Could use a few minor tweaks (punctuation etc) but overall, excellent.--Draugluin (talk) 12:02, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support: Incredibly thorough article! Love the infobox The Rim of the Sky (talk) 23:07, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Support: Thorough and organized. The formatting is visually appealing, the arrangement of images is unique and not overly crowded. Could probably move a few images over to the left, but I endorse it. -MolagBallet (talk) 01:47, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
Skyrim:Druadach Redoubt[edit]
Comprehensive, well-written & easy to follow. Exactly what a place page should be.
