Wikipedia:Today's featured list
|
Today's featured list  Today's featured list is a section included on the Main Page on Mondays and on Fridays, in which an introduction to one of Wikipedia's featured lists is displayed. The current month's queue can be found here. The lists appearing on the Main Page are scheduled by the featured list director, currently Giants2008. To be eligible to appear on the Main Page, a list must already be featured. For more information on the featured list promotion process, please see the featured list candidates, as well as the featured list criteria. In addition, a blurb is drafted, introducing the subject of the list. Blurbs are roughly 1,000 characters in length, with no reference tags, alternate names or extraneous boldface type, although a link to the specified featured list should be emboldened; a relevant picture is also usually included with the blurb. The previous three lists that were featured on the Main Page appear along the bottom, in reverse chronological order. You can submit a list to be scheduled at the submissions page. At the moment, lists are scheduled by the featured list director or by the featured list delegates, although we will eventually be devising a community-based system for selecting each day's list. We encourage editors to submit and to review as many blurbs as possible. If you notice a problem with an upcoming featured list to appear on the Main Page, please leave a message at the Main Page errors page or here. Further suggestions on how you can participate can be found here. |

Emmanuel Adebayor scored 32 international goals during his career as a forward for the Togo national football team, making him the country's all-time top scorer. Born in the capital city of Lomé, Adebayor represented Togo in 87 FIFA-recognised matches between 2000 and 2019. He made his international debut against Zambia in July 2000 and scored his first goal two years later against Mauritania at the Stade de Kégué. Adebayor's only international hat-trick came against Swaziland (now Eswatini) in October 2008, in which he scored four goals during a match in Accra, Ghana. Adebayor represented Togo at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, the country's only appearance in the tournament as of 2024, and he played in several Africa Cup of Nations tournaments. He scored his last goal for Togo during his final appearance in a 2–1 defeat against neighbouring Benin in March 2019. Adebayor is revered as a Togolese sporting legend and is often regarded as one of the best African players of his generation. (Full list...)
