Tank Dempsey
I think Dempsey should be featured because he is always in a zombies game since he is the hosts character and plus all the other zombie characters like him.

Not everyone likes him- Richtofen, in one of his quotes on Kino, says " Hello, Dempsey. Oh look, its just a portrait. AN UGLY ONE!!" Biggunz77 01:37, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Not the greatest artcial. Just because he is in most zombie levels, and is the host's character doesn't mean he should be featured. Conqueror of all Zombies 02:46, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

Takeo Masaki
One of the overlooked characters in Nazi zombies. I think he deserves a space in the spotlight. I think it is a good article.Reznov115 22:19, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

There are better than this. Fish2306 17:49, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Claymore
A great little piece of equipment featured in three (and arguably the best) of the COD games, this is not just based on one game and so contains more information which I think should be better for a featured article. It's well written and there's no mess on the trivia section which is good for an article like this.

I've improved all the poor parts for you, what do you think to it now? Fish2306 17:55, February 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * Still oppose. It desperately needs images and I found several gramatical errors still.  Shotrocket6  Talk  21:32, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Dimitri Petrenko
A great character, was the main character for Call of Duty World at War, and played a very big part of Black Ops. It is a very well-written.

Support
Biggunz77 22:41, February 1, 2011 (UTC)

I agree. He is a big character since you play as him in World at war and plus he is shown for some time in black ops.Dudebot121256 23:15, February 2, 2011 (UTC)dudebot121256

I agree to this. He should have died a hero, not a filthy rat experiment. Let's honor his death for this. Plus the article is best written so why not indeed. GunsSwordsFlames 23:35, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

Both sides are right. Doesn't really make a difference to me. Conqueror of all Zombies 02:48, February 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * The supporting argument is very opinionated, though. 10:13, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

 * He actually does play a major part in Black Ops, he fuels Reznov's hunger for revenge, thus in turn brainwashing Mason, and thus making him a big part of the storyline.Biggunz77 21:17, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Black Ops
its been exactly 1 month and a year since MW2 was featured so i guess it is time for black ops too.

The featured article isn't about time gaps. Fish2306 16:05, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

M1911
While we usually feature weapons, I don't believe we have ever featured a secondary weapon. Not only would this be the first featured secondary, but it is both incredibly recurring throughout the series, tied only with the STG-44 for most featured. Personally, I think it is a very well written and full of information. It is very deserving of this honor as well. 08:45, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

 * Just because it is featured in so many titles doesn't mean it should be featured. We are talking about quality more than quantity here.  D octor R ichtoffee  T alk 20:02, February 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * I understand that. That's why I gave three other reasons for my nomination. 05:10, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

 * Woops, sorry Richtoffee, damn how long has that been there? I'm changing it so it's an actual support now. 01:11, February 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * A fairly good article. Conqueror of all Zombies 02:50, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

 * Yeah, that's the problem with these long articles, they get screwed over by by edits and vandals... anyway... what needs improvement? I'm completely willing to do a full edit of the article, just tell me the problems. 05:29, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Knife
I've done a major fix up of the Knife article, and would like to nominate it for FA status. The best thing about this article, IMO, is that there is no trivia section. All of it worth keeping has been integrated into the main body of the article itself. It is well-illustrated, and there's about as much detail as you could expect for any melee weapon.  bibliomaniac 1  5  05:56, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

Not that good of an article. It doesn't change much from game-to-game, and "no trivia" doesn't make it Featured Article material. Conqueror of all Zombies 02:52, February 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * What do you suggest to make it better? Not changing much from game to game doesn't exclude it from FA status, it just means that it hasn't changed much. As for no trivia, the point is that it's been integrated into the prose.  bibliomaniac 1  5  08:43, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

Nova 6
Nova 6 is a centripetal part of Call of Duty: Black Ops and arguably in the DS version also. The article is fairly well written, bulked out with information and has a good selection of pictures.

This article is messy, has been since the day the game came out. YuriKaslov 19:30, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

per Yuri. Conqueror of all Zombies 02:53, February 5, 2011 (UTC)

Death Machine
I believe the Death Machine would make a good featured article. It's well written, explains a lot, has okay images, and it really is an important part of BO, I mean look at all the game modes its included in.
