Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie
This article truly needs to be featured on the main page. It's reads very well and sums up the plot without going on too long. Formatting is spot-on, images are placed very nicely, and is one of the few articles that are fun to read; a quality very hard to find here on SNN. 20:48, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Mystic Orb: Who do you think I am?   What do you want?   What do I do?  21:24, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Lacks an informative infobox and too many redlinks. A featured article needs to be better than that. -- Disco Divaundefined Surnik.png 14:06, September 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) Per Disco, and it still contains a few typos and grammatical errors that need to be weeded out. All of this can be fixed, but consider me out until this stuff does get improved. 14:15, September 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) Per Disco and Shadow,Needn't I say more!  Edsta (talk) 15:18, September 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) Hasn't this page already been a featured article... If the new system Unleashed proposed comes into effect, this would have to be removed from the page.  -- Psyche  the Hedgehog  08:21, September 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 5) Indeed. --Toxice (talk) 15:17, September 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 6) Like others have pointed out, it could still use a few improvements. Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  19:44, September 17, 2013 (UTC)

Gear Parts
I nominate Gear Pars to be a featured article of Sonic News Network' main page because I believe it is well-written, formatted, very few to no spelling and/or grammar errors for an article mainly about game information.
