This Wikipedia page is currently inactive and is retained as a historical archive. A historical page is either no longer relevant or consensus has become unclear. If you want to revive discussion regarding the subject, you should seek broader input via a forum such as the proposals page of the village pump. |
Every two weeks, a Final Fantasy Collaboration of the Fortnight will be picked using this page. This is a specific topic which either has no article, a basic stub or article is desperate need of Wikipedia:Cleanup. The page must be directly related to the Final Fantasy series and the aim being to have a featured-standard article by the end of the period, from widespread cooperative editing.
The project aims to fill gaps about Final Fantasy in Wikipedia and improve existing Final Fantasy articles to Good articles or better. You can find a list of Final Fantasy articles that need work on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Final Fantasy(a full list of Final Fantasy topics can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Final Fantasy/Index). Anyone who is a registered user can nominate an article and can vote for the nominated articles.
Every second Sunday, the votes are tallied, and the winner will be promoted for two weeks to potential contributors.

Every fortnight a different Final Fantasy-related topic, stub or non-existent article is picked. Please read the nomination text and improve the article any way you can. |

[edit] Considerations for nominations
- Please only nominate Final Fantasy-related articles which don't currently exist, need serious work or are in desperate need of attention. – also see Final Fantasy stubs. If you have an article that is not related to Final Fantasy please use Collaboration of the Week, which is not specific to Final Fantasy articles.
- Giving reasons as to why an article should become the FFCOTF may assist others in casting their vote.
- Can the wider community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?
[edit] Selection
If the article is selected as the FFCOTF, enter the article's complete title at Template:FFCOTF article. The template {{Current FFCOTF}} should then be placed at the top of the selected article's page. This expands to:
| This article is the current Final Fantasy Collaboration of the Fortnight! Please help improve it to featured article standard. |
When the article is no longer FFCOTF, please add the following template to the talk page: {{past ffcotf|date|year}}
[edit] Pruning
Nominations will be moved to Removed if they do not attract attention. An item will be allowed to remain up for voting two weeks per two votes it receives.
Items may also be removed if they are inappropriate for nomination (see Considerations... above)
Please see the talk page to discuss to changes in pruning policy.

Comments:
- This article should be one of the most interesting Final Fantasy articles, what with its music always being remixed more than music from almost any other video game. There should be much more here than just a description of some of the music from later games in the series and a section about the person who used to write it leaving. Dominick Guglielmo rocks.
