See that Random Image subtitle in the Main Page? The one that changes every time you enter the wiki? | See that Random Image subtitle in the Main Page? The one that changes every time you enter the wiki? | ||
Well, some pages like, for example, Wikipedia and Mariowiki have a featured image. It is just like the featured article, but it shows cool images in the wiki. Now having a number of images greater than 1,100, I suggest that it is changed into a Featured Image instead of a Random Image. <span style="border:2px dashed #FF0000;background-color:yellow">[[ | Well, some pages like, for example, Wikipedia and Mariowiki have a featured image.

*{{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}} -- But unlike featured image which needs constant changing, random changes itself, plus it is always new, (although we occasionally get those not Pikminy ones...) | *{{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}} -- But unlike featured image which needs constant changing, random changes itself, plus it is always new, (although we occasionally get those not Pikminy ones...) | ||

CL, the images shown now are randomly chosen from selected ones, all the ones listed in [[template:featured image|the template]], so it's easy to keep out any that are inappropriate for the front page. And I'm voting for a change, because it might be interesting. Since it's images, for which less would have to be done to change the feature, this could easily be done more often than the featured article, maybe every few days. | CL, the images shown now are randomly chosen from selected ones, all the ones listed in [[template:featured image|the template]], so it's easy to keep out any that are inappropriate for the front page.

Well, I don't see any good reason to. There are a few interesting images we have, but it's enough just to put them in the randomized ones and let them show up there. However, if the wiki expands a lot with Pikmin 3, there will be more activity behind it, and also new and hopefully great images from the game.--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}} | Well, I don't see any good reason to.
