The DCAU's most famous character deserves a little attention. -- SFH 18:52, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
I agree with you both. This article would probably draw some more attention to the wiki, because nobody dislikes Harley! All in all (in her own words), a "swell" choice! --Matches Malone 00:52, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

It's been a while since a The New Batman Adventures episode has been nominated and this one has it all: detailed plot, pictures, quotes, trivia... Also, it's a fan favorite. ― Thailog 12:06, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Personally, I don't dig "bad dream" episodes, but I must admit, the page is well written. -- SFH 17:52, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Fan fav for me too - also, it features the entire Bat-family, half of the GCPD in speaking roles, and a busload of villains. When I first came to this wiki, I was a bit disappointed it was only a stub. It grew rapidly. -- Tupka217 21:22, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

It IS an intriguing episode and it's well written, but I think that we've almost compeletly fallen into the "Bat-Trap." We have 13 out of 27 (14 out of 27 condidering the re-run of Poison Ivy) featured articles that have a direct link with Batman, either they are rogues of his (or Terry's) or they are episodes based on his show. That's almost half of our featured articles. Now we're considering another episode in his series. If it passes, that's 3 Batman related articles in a row. Enough with Batman for now. I'd say we should consider a different character's rouges or episodes. MrWhitman 05:55, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Comments
You make a very good point, MrWhitman, but the truth is if there are so many Batman related featured articles is because no one really cared enough about FAs as to getting involved with nominations and voting. This usually forced me to appoint one myself, and I generally went with a well-written and illustrated article. I'm glad you are finally showing an interest in it, and I wish I didn't have to be always the first one to nominate an article. That said, if the other voters are up to it, I'll recant my vote in favor of the other article. ― Thailog 09:53, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

This article was a pivitol article in the DCAU. From this episode, came the Project Cadmus story arc and Batman's distrust of Superman. This episode also shows a darker side of Superman that is rarely seen and the only time that Superman managed to beat Darkseid. Finally, this was the last episode of Superman: The Animated Series and a very important one. MrWhitman 06:03, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Since Over the Edge made it as January's article, I think this would be a great one for February. -- Tupka217 09:36, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Just a comment for now; maybe we could pick an article that's a little bit more "obscure" this time around? I'm not really sure what necessarily constitutes obscurity, but maybe something like a lesser-known hero, etc.? Just a thought... --Matches Malone 13:40, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
I agree. I was thinking of an object or voice actor. ― Thailog 20:50, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
It is detailed and well-sourced, but I think it's a little bit too "and then... and then.."-y, if you catch my drift. It needs some longer chunks of text rather than a white line every three lines. -- Tupka217 23:16, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

This a more obscure character as it has had only a couple of significant appearances, otherwise it appeared as background character. The article is as expanded as it can be for such a character, and the BG info section is also detailed and mentions the peculiar oversight that allowed her "resurrection." ― Thailog 23:11, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
Since April is coming fast, better vote for one. Cheetah is an interesting character, and her article is as good as it can be (and better in comparison to Toyman). --Tupka217 19:19, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

This was a group that was pivotal in the storylines of both Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, driving the actions of various characters throughout nearly an entire season. --Angelqueen04 21:11, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
I agree. That was one of Cadmus' main arguments/excuses for targeting the Justice League. If I'm not mistaken, the very reason they recruited all those other heroes was to keep that situation from ever happening again. --Thejluninja 01:42, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

KGBeast could benefit from a good image but at least it's not conjectural and KGBeast was one of the more popular villains of the Society to be made into an action figure.

I'm gonna have to disagree with the first one. Daniel Mockridge is still a redlink. Deleting it and then saying the articler is flawless is more flawed than having a featured article with a red link still in it. -- Tupka217 17:22, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
The images seem to be of below-average quality, too. -- Tupka217 17:23, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Sorry. I just thought Daniel Mockridge was too minor of a character to have much on a good page and that enough was already covered in the "Riddler" article.

I know nominating own work is sort of a sin, but I can't think of any other good article that isn't close to anything already featured. The article covers most of her appearances (most of them are walk-on anyway), including Gotham Girls, is well sourced and has very little red links. It's an interesting character, and like Harley Quinn, adopted in the comics. -- Tupka217Talk 21:22, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

well written and puts all the available informationin, it may not look like much but it is telling you all the available info. people are saying we need important characters from the series' not minor or secondary. but what about minor and secondary characters that are very well written, this is about featured articles not important characters. pictures are good. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Scout search (talk • contribs).

Since support is in votes, not in arguments, I combined the nominator's points into one vote. -- Tupka217Talk 09:42, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
Points 3, 7, 8, 10, 11 should be settled, in my opinion. Points 1 and 12 are a matter of opinion, and it looks fine to me. She did appear vastly different in her three appearances, so I understand if it's necessary to include an image from STAS or JLU, even though they were cameos. The only thing stopping me from supporting is the word count. As it stands, there is less than 500 words (about 430), and I just can't see how it can be expanded into 1000 without overly padding the article. As such, the article is much better by *not* being "featurable" than it would be if someone tried to pad it out (she's a one-episode character, essentially).--Tim Thomason 07:13, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
I agree with Tim, and since he basically settled the other points, this article could very well be next month's candidate. ― Thailog 09:38, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
Struck out my oppose vote in light of the comments. As for the Superman: The Animated Series cameo of Katma, I don't think that could come out in the article. It's just a hologram. -- Tupka217Talk 21:41, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
