Hi wikivideo fans,
Amazingly enough, it looks like 'Featured Media' actually has
consensus on Commons now:
Anyone up for the challenge of getting the new process jumpstarted? :)
Thanks,
Richard

Good point, that is also needed; absolutely. The
videos I want to
promote are mainly or their educational value, which might be more
appropriate in context on en:wp than in the more abstract commons
(where beauty, resolution, composition, and other structural aspects
of quality might be considered more important)

That's a great idea. I hadn't noticed
this thread when I suggested a
featured video process today; you can see my reasoning here:

I'd be all for combining this into 'Featured Media'.

At this stage, perhaps an inclusive strategy makes most sense.
Given the inertia factor to starting something wholly new (and the
general multimedia energy of the existing FS community!), perhaps the
time has indeed come for evolving toward a Featured Media process on
Wikipedia.
I would certainly have a few videos to nominate right off :)
Thanks,
Richard
