Forum:Change Random Image for Featured Image
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.

So, what do you think?
Leave it like that

Turret~ And I approve this message. -- But unlike featured image which needs constant changing, random changes itself, plus it is always new, (although we occasionally get those not Pikminy ones...) - Prezintenden

Change it to Featured Image

CL, the images shown now are randomly chosen from selected ones, all the ones listed in 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.
If we do change this, how would we decide what to feature and when to change it? I'm thinking voting would take too long: not enough people nominate/vote for articles to feature as it is. Maybe we could delegate changing it to a couple of people who would like to, and they would choose which images as well. Just a thought.GP
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.--Prezintenden
