Claire Littleton

Nominated by: lOsTiE4815162342
This is a solid article with reliable information on the character (Claire in this case) and good episode references. This article is very neat and easy to follow unlike other Character Profile articles.
Not yet. Generally very good, but need a bit of a clean up first.--TechNic|talk|conts 08:33, 1 May 2008 (PDT)

Lost: The Complete Second Season (DVD)

Nominated by: -- Iron Man Send a message View contributions 16:16, 4 September 2007 (PDT)
For a DVD filled with Easter Eggs, Dharma Videos, "The Lost Connections" and all other sorts of Lost-related goodies, this article sure does a good job of covering all of them. With plenty of pictures and Youtube videos, this will not only showcase Lostpedia's technical ability, but also how well everything is covered.
No: The majority of the article is just bullet points. This article should be changed from a list before it becomes a featured article. --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 17:57, 4 September 2007 (PDT)
No: It looks ugly and as noted by Mr. Crabby, it's mostly just lists.--TechNic|talk|conts 08:34, 1 May 2008 (PDT)

Deus Ex Machina

Nominated by: --Pinknoise 03:54, 5 June 2007 (PDT)
Not quite sure how the episode is relevant, but you'll all agree it is a bloody good episode and it was the one that told us about the Locke/Cooper issue which was prevalent in season 3. It also showed us that light in the hatch scene. Maybe this episode would have been more relevant around when The Brig was on, but it was the best episode of season 1 and has loads of motifs and relevant threads. With a little more work this article could be one of the best on lostpedia.
No: Needs a more detailed storyline section and more facts in the trivia section. As you said, with work it could be one of the best on Lostpedia, but for me its not even close to that. --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 04:05, 5 June 2007 (PDT)
No: For such a good episode, this article is insubstantial.--TechNic|talk|conts 08:39, 1 May 2008 (PDT)

The Man Behind the Curtain

Nominated by:--Monkeyluck 16:58, 6 July 2007 (PDT)
It's a great episode that revealed a lot about the island's history, got a great reception from the American Public. It also gave us a look into one of the most mysterious characters: Ben. We got to "see" the mysterious Jacob for the first time and we finally got a look at the much talked about "purge". The article itself is very well written, a lot in the trivia section and it's just a generally got episode and article.
Yes: Like almost every Season Three episode, this one has a well-written synopsis, good trivia section, releavent pictures, etc. --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 08:13, 15 August 2007 (PDT)
Yes: A long time ago, could of sworn I nomiated this. No matter. We figured out the purge, we get Ben's backstory, etc.
Yes: A well constructed article, and an important episode.--TechNic|talk|conts 08:42, 1 May 2008 (PDT)

The Island/Theories

Nominated by -- Dagg talk contribs4 8 16:51, 27 February 2007 (PST)
Lots of good information in here.

Not yet: As said before, I don't think we are ready for a theories page to be AOTW. And when we are, I think The Monster theories page is a much more worthy canidate. -- Iron Man Send a message View contributions 11:40, 26 March 2007 (PDT)

No: Reasons given by Ironman -- Comedy240 13:38, 26 March 2007 (PDT)
- Just for the record, I like to be referred to as Ironman. :) -- Iron Man Send a message View contributions 12:55, 8 April 2007 (PDT)
No: I just don't like the theory pages very much.--TechNic|talk|conts 08:44, 1 May 2008 (PDT)

The Lost Experience

Nominated by: --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 11:23, 18 March 2007 (PDT)
- This page has been viewed 452,398 times, making it the fourth most viewed page on Lostpedia (behind the Main Page, Season 3, and the Blast Door Map). What I think seperates Lostpedia from other Lost sites is our coverage of the Lost Experience. It's a good page and well organized, one that Lostpedia should be proud of. --Mr. Crabby (Talk)

Yes of not already featured: Very well written article, i agree with everything your saying, but for some reason i remember this being AOTW in the past. Correct me if im wrong. -- Iron Man Send a message View contributions 11:38, 26 March 2007 (PDT)

We've had The Lost Experience revelations amongst other TLE articles, but never the main one --Nickb123 (Talk) 11:44, 26 March 2007 (PDT)

Yes -- Iron Man Send a message View contributions 11:50, 26 March 2007 (PDT)

No -- Boring, long, and no pictures. - Comedy240 17:21, 6 March 2007 (PDT)

I added some pictures per this criticism --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 10:27, 8 April 2007 (PDT)

Yes --It revealed a lot of interesting info about lost (ie what dharma stands for) i think it's a good idea. The statistics point to it, too. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rhcm123 (talk • contribs) .

Yes: Although i wasn't a Lost addict at that time, the game itself is very good and deserves to be selected as featured article; the page is good, well-organized, explains the game for the ones that didn't take part in it, but also gives links to the more specific clues and other things about the ones who were in it, so there is no negative thing about it. Maybe if there were another Lost Experience the timing would have been perfect, but still, it's OK cause this 8 month hiatus is for that - looking back at the big things that happened. Also the statistics show the same. -- Steff talk contribs email 10:20, 17 August 2007 (PDT)
Very Much No-- Very Boring, too long and hard to read 'cause there's so much --Monkeyluck 03:48, 8 September 2007 (PDT)
Yes: It's a very good article and is interesting to revisit TLE and see if anything new comes into focus after all this time. Particularly interesting now that Widmore is in the show.--TechNic|talk|conts 08:47, 1 May 2008 (PDT)

Drug smugglers' plane

Nominated by: Hakwam 9:55, 29 september 2007 (PDT)
- I think that this is a very good page. The plane is very important, it killed Boone, it was related to Eko, and it falled on the pearl station. I also think the page has preety good information.
Not yet--too short, maybe with some work, but not yet.--Monkeyluck 23:00, 1 October 2007 (PDT)

Graveyard

Nominated by" --Jeff 20:17, 20 February 2008 (PST)
- Good article on an overlooked portion of the survivors camp.

"Enter 77"

Nominated by: --CTS 21:22, 23 February 2008 (PST)
- This is one of the best episodes of Season Three and also gave us more info on DHARMA and the Others.
- Agreed. Froglars 05:21, 8 March 2008 (PST)
- Yes: The mysterious patched man from The Cost of Living was introduced as was The Flame from the blast door map. Mikhail was able to give info on DHARMA and The Others. Plus, Mrs. Klugh is finally seen since the season 2 finale. BETTYFIZZW (Talk) 17:52, 12 March 2008 (PDT)

Elliott Maslow

Nominated by: --CTS 11:39, 14 March 2008 (PDT)
- The main character of Via Domus should definitely be featured. This page is a good length, has lots of pictures, and is easy to read and follow.
Yes I think if a trivia section or something was added, this would be a great page to feature. --Blueeagle islander 21:39, 15 March 2008 (PDT)
- I added a trivia section and more unanswered questions. --CTS 14:01, 16 March 2008 (PDT)
  - And I changed to full yes. --Blueeagle islander 01:33, 17 March 2008 (PDT)

Eko

Nominated by:--CTS 17:54, 4 April 2008 (PDT)
- Eko has had three important centric episodes, two in Season Two and one in Season Three. Eko is a very enigmatic character who added a lot of awesome storyline to Seasons Two and Three. Eko was the first character to stand face-to-face with the Monster, he also discovered the Pearl station, and his stick led Locke to the Flame station. This page should be featured without a doubt.
