Metroid Wiki:Featured Picture Nomination
Here users can nominate and vote for Metroid Wikis next featured picture. Featured pictures should:
- Depict a Metroid-related subject.
- Carry the appropriate image templates denoting copyright information.
- Be of a reasonably high resolution AND/OR
- Be of a high quality in terms of detail and rendering
- Meet all other criteria of Metroid Wiki's Image Quality Standards
Rules:
- A picture needs the approval of five users with at least one staff vote, OR two admins votes in its favor, in order to be marked as featured.
- The user who makes the nomination is included as one of the five necessary votes.
- Both users and staff may make a maximum of one approval, nomination or disapproval per calendar week.
- You may not approve of a picture which you have nominated, or for which you have already previously approved.
- Votes should be added in order beneath the respective relevant header (either {{support}} or {{oppose}}), with # at the beginning of the line.
- A maximum of six Currently Nominated images are allowed at any given time. Please do not nominate a new image if there are already six nominees.
- All approvals MUST be signed using ~~~~. If you do not sign your opinion or second, your comments WILL NOT be counted!
- Be sure to include a brief message stating why you agree that an image should be featured. "Stub" votes (e.g. "I like this image", or "<character shown> is great") may be deemed invalid and discounted.
If a picture should receive two valid user votes in opposition, it will not be featured, once verified by a staff member.
Proper Opposition Guidelines:
- You may make a single vote opposing any nominated picture (with no monthly restrictions). These should be reasoned oppositions based upon the qualifying criteria detailed.
- Your personal like or dislike of the subject being depicted is NOT grounds for opposition.
- Oppositions to images should only be used for reasons such as the following:
- a. Low-resolution
- b. Poor quality images (e.g. blurry, visible compression artifacts etc.)
- c. Poorly cropped/rendered
- d. An image depicting a similar subject is already featured
- e. The image is just one in a series of many images of similar nature
If a staff member deems that a particular opposition does not follow these guidelines, it will be negated.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Promotional Artwork
Support (Five Required)- This image has amazing quality and is really fun to examine at full resolution. The wide array of colors are beautiful and makes for an eye-catching featured image—Embyr 75 --Talk-- 20:11, 28 March 2011 (EDT)
- Huge size and stunning quality. Epicly sums up Metroid Prime 3 and conveys the grand feeling of the game. A must-be featured pic. -Melchizedek talk 08:28, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Samus Versus the Ing
Support (Five Required)- I think the artist has really captured the essence of Echoes in this image. It's dark, eerie, and claustrophobic - Samus herself is what seems to be illuminating her Ing opponents, even as she crouches away from the darkest corners of the image. It's absolutely brilliant. It makes you feel as though there's no way out, and it's probably the darkness, not the enemies, that's confining her. —Embyr 75 --Talk-- 04:48, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
- I think this one is the best choice becuase it shows how dark Samus' path get,litterly. It shows the darkness of the situation, the darkness of the world of Dark Aether, and it shows how dark her chances is. This is a perfect illistration of the game Metroid Prime 2 Echoes.--Arcwarioman 20:28, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
