Ugh, dude... Next time, let the person who actually EDITED the article nominate it. Plus, you're past your limit. This should be deleted after my new proposal passes anyway. :/ Bloc Partier (talk)

Okay, fine. KS3 (talk)

Hey everyone, just thought I'd let you know that before a minute ago, the article's lead sucked. Now, it is far better. Bloc Partier (talk)

Did you check the grammar? All you said was...whatever you said in your support vote. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Yah. I wrote and proofread the article myself. I do make mistakes here and there, but I'm pretty sure this article has no errors. Bloc Partier (talk)

Anybody can nominate an article if they want to, Bloc. --Marcelagus (talk)

I don't think you understand the concept, Marcelagus. What Bloc Partier is saying is that he/she contributed so much to the article and he/she wanted to feature it themselves. However, KS3 instantaneously put the article up for featuring. I know it may not seem like something bad, but it's about the concept. KS3 did nothing to contribute to the article and after Bloc Partier fixed it up, he nominated it. Also, KS3 was over his limit (3), so that counts for something too. Gamefreak75 (talk)

I think I was unaware of this "limit". There's a limit for nominating articles now? --Marcelagus (talk)

Yeah, it passed like 3 days ago. :/ It's too keep consistency so a user will not nominate an article and abandon it. Check the Featured Article statistics to see what I'm talking about. Gamefreak75 (talk)

Yep, GameFreak's got it exactly right. And yeah, it passed pretty recently. You may have missed it. Bloc Partier (talk)

That makes sense. I was inactive for the past few weeks. Also, whoever proposed it should add said policy to the Featured Articles page or else nobody will know about it. --Marcelagus (talk)

@BP: Yes! On the money! :P @Marcelagus: That explains it and I totally agree, only the user that worked on the article/revamped/contributed the most to it should be able to nominate it! Gamefreak75 (talk)

That's... not what I said, but ok. --Marcelagus (talk)

The new rule has been added to the FA page. Bloc Partier (talk)

Whoops, it seems I misinterpreted something...again...Gamefreak75 (talk)

Don't worry about it! Bloc Partier (talk)
