[edit] TFA

• February 8, 2008 would be exactly ten years since the episode first aired. I suppose we'll have to see what the WP:TFA/R climate is like at that point. Cirt (talk) 16:38, 17 December 2007 (UTC).
  • I doubt it'd be allowed because everyone will be up in arms "Oh no! That would be the thirs Simpsons article on the main page in less than a year! The horror! This real is turning into Homerpedia, why can't people contribute to better topics!" Answer: We don't want to. Anyway, I was going to nominate Troy McClure for May 28, 2008, the tenth anniversary of Phil Hartman's death. Ah well, looks like that's off the cards, unless I can get Phil's page to FA before May. Gran² 16:42, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
    • Why, because you think you have a better chance for TFA w/ the article about Phil than about Troy? Cirt (talk) 16:44, 17 December 2007 (UTC).
      • Exactly, if Troy were on the main page, it would be three (four if this gets on) in a year, which some people would like. Troy is obviously a direct Simpsons page, but Phil (although tagged as part of our project) wouldn't be seen as such a direct Simpsons article. Gran² 16:46, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
        • Good luck. Cirt (talk) 16:47, 17 December 2007 (UTC).

We're probably going to have to wait at least half a year before Raul will even consider it. I was planning on trying A Streetcar Named Marge for October 1 or Treehouse of Horror (series) for sometime around Halloween if it's promoted. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 22:58, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

• We shall see. Just a thought. Cirt (talk) 23:01, 17 December 2007 (UTC).
  • You can go ahead and try, there's no harm in it, but just be aware that it's not likely. Troy's page might have a better chance because it's not about an episode and it's been an FA for a lot longer. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 23:03, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
    • Well, we've got a little while before that, and plenty of other things to work on in the meantime :) Cirt (talk) 23:08, 17 December 2007 (UTC).
