Featured images are images that add significantly to articles, either by illustrating article content particularly well, or being eye-catching to the point where users will want to read its accompanying article. Taking the adage that "a picture is worth a thousand words," the images featured on the Main Page should illustrate a wiki article in such a way as to add significantly to that article, according to the featured image criteria.

All currently featured images can be found in the featured images gallery.

Nominations

<createbox> align=center width=30 break=no prefix=RuneScape:Featured images/ preload=RuneScape:Featured images/Preload default=File:Example.png buttonlabel=Create new nomination </createbox>

Featuring images

• The image must be in compliance with the images and media policy.
• An image may be nominated by any user, including the uploader, per discussion. This also applies to nominations for replacement or delisting.
• Nominators are not allowed to advertise their nominations, solicit comments, or trade nominations with each other, as this would be gaming the system.
• Do not change the image while it is being voted on. Changing an image by uploading a new version of the image, or by changing to a different file of a similar subject can void all comments made before the change, and may lead to confusion.

Replacing images

• If you are nominating an image to be replaced, provide a picture of the original image and add a link to the previous nomination. A historical list of nominations is stored in the archives.
• Obsolete images can be replaced with an updated version. Doing so will immediately delist the image. In order for the updated image to retain featured status, it must pass a replacement discussion.

Closing nominations

• When a nomination is closed, if successful, the following code should be added to the image's file page:

{{FIMG
|subject=<article name>
|desc=<fimg description>
}}

File:Aminishi north district.png

Description: The spooky and seemingly abandoned northern district to Aminishi.
Reason: Its spooky and purdy

• Support - As nominator Scuzzy Beta 20:45, July 31, 2017 (UTC)
• Support - TonyBest100 16:08, August 2, 2017 (UTC)
• Support - IsobelJ 17:19, August 2, 2017 (UTC)
• Strong oppose - Looks like a grey blob when thumb'd. To dark and not very bright, too. Fswe1 16:25, August 3, 2017 (UTC)

I'd hardly call this image dark when thumb'd, especially compared to the other 4 images it's sitting next to on the Aminishi page. TonyBest100 17:01, August 3, 2017 (UTC)

• Comment - I've just quickly retaken and uploaded a new version which corrects some scenery being missing on the main island TonyBest100 19:35, August 3, 2017 (UTC)
  • Support the retake --Scuzzy Beta 17:40, August 6, 2017 (UTC)
  • Support - retake still looks great. IsobelJ 19:40, August 6, 2017 (UTC)
• Support - I like the cloudy ambience and it have a good overview of the area. http://i.imgur.com/x5sQGus.png  ᚼ 𝕷𝖔𝖗𝖉 𝕸𝖆𝖓𝖕𝖆𝖎𝖓𝖙 ᚼ (t)(c) 19:57, August 6, 2017 (UTC)
• Support - Shows off the island quite well, as well as showing off NXT. --File:General_Khazard_skeletal_chathead.png|20px KelseW aka General Khazard 20:03, August 6, 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose - it's not composed particularly well and the colors are pretty dull. --Iiii I I I 22:27, August 6, 2017 (UTC)
• Still oppose - The area still looks dull; the mountain in the background is just a grey blob. Fswe1 06:38, August 7, 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose - I don't really think that this is a good image to feature. It has a nice ambience, sure, but it doesn't look nice on the page without expanding it. The area is just too dark and I see nothing that would catch my eye as a reader and draw me to why the image was actually featured. I think that other images on the Aminishi page, especially File:Aminishi stairs.png, would do a lot better job being featured because they're not too dark and the statues beside the stairs spice it up more than just being a dark and dull image https://i.imgur.com/xHR7zpA.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/6encXAo.png 12:24, August 7, 2017 (UTC)
• Extended a few days - Dammit people comment earlier. --Liquid^Talk 17:38, August 7, 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose - Not FIMG worthy. Haidro ^(talk) 21:24, August 7, 2017 (UTC)

Closed - Image will not be featured. --Liquid^Talk 00:43, August 10, 2017 (UTC)

Nominations for replacement

Necromancer robe top

Current
Replacement

Reason: A bit bigger but most importantly no AA artefacts from rotating, which was bothering me a lot. Tried to get a straight angle with symmetry but it's difficult because the item is tilted. :/

• Support - As nominator. Fswe1 08:59, July 28, 2017 (UTC)

• Liquid made me comment Seaport --Scuzzy Beta 00:55, August 4, 2017 (UTC)
  • Delist both - Per coel --Scuzzy Beta 06:45, August 4, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist both - They don't feel super detailed in the modern (sixth) age, and even with the new one being from the cache it still feels sorta tilted. Coelacanth0794 Talk 01:29, August 4, 2017 (UTC)

Yes, getting the thing any sort of straight is very difficult. Oh, and, this is clearly one of the four best-looking outfits in the entire game, along with war-chief, black ibis and master runecrafter. ;P By the way, it's taken in-game, I dunno how the fancy cache stuff works. Fswe1 06:34, August 4, 2017 (UTC)

• Extended by 1 week - Clearly this has turned from a nomination for replacement into a nomination for delisting. It's only fair to give the delisting discussion its own week. --Liquid^Talk 22:00, August 4, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist image - It's pretty dull https://i.imgur.com/xHR7zpA.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/6encXAo.png 23:42, August 4, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist - Ugly. Haidro ^(talk) 05:22, August 5, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist - Per coel TonyBest100 12:18, August 5, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist - How did this abomination even got in FIMG in first place? http://i.imgur.com/x5sQGus.png  ᚼ 𝕷𝖔𝖗𝖉 𝕸𝖆𝖓𝖕𝖆𝖎𝖓𝖙 ᚼ (t)(c) 20:01, August 6, 2017 (UTC)

Funnily enough this passed a nomination not even 2 months ago. I am still yet to understand what it is FI is supposed to be looking for, but at least people appear to have unanimously decided that this is not an example of it. IsobelJ 20:11, August 6, 2017 (UTC)

I actually supported this nomination but I've kinda grown to find that it isn't actually that nice of an image, the colours are just plain and the only thing that is really interesting about it I guess is the design https://i.imgur.com/xHR7zpA.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/6encXAo.png 12:18, August 7, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist - :barf: - Sparky Kitty the Wikian 20:03, August 6, 2017 (UTC)

• Delist - Feels redundant commenting this, but yeah it's not the nicest --File:General_Khazard_skeletal_chathead.png|20px KelseW aka General Khazard 20:04, August 6, 2017 (UTC)

• Closed - Images will be delisted. --Liquid^Talk 01:01, August 10, 2017 (UTC)
