Wikipedia:Today's featured list/Submissions
Today's featured list submissions ![]() Lists suggested here must be featured lists that have not previously appeared on the main page. Today's featured list launched in June 2011, initially on each Monday. In January 2014 it was agreed to expand to appear twice a week. The lists will be selected by the FL director, based on the consensus of the community. To submit a list for main page consideration, you simply need to draft a short summary of the list, in approximately 1000 characters, along with a relevant image from the list itself, using the template provided below. Should you need any assistance using the template, feel free to ask for help on the talk page. If you are nominating a list submitted by someone else, consider notifying the significant contributor(s) with The community will review submissions, and suggest improvements where appropriate. If a blurb receives broad support, and there are no actionable objections, one of the directors will confirm that it has been accepted for main page submission. Please note there should be no more than fifteen nominations listed here at any one time. In rare circumstances, the directors reserve the right to exclude a list from main page consideration, a practice consistent with other main page sections such as Today's featured article and Picture of the day. Should this ever happen, a detailed explanation will be given. |

I'd like to suggest September 27, 2024 to coincide with its 10-year anniversary re-release. Sgubaldo (talk) 03:11, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
- The re-release of Interstellar is now scheduled for December 6, 2024, according to Variety. I don't know if you want to move the date you want this posted to the new re-release date. Birdienest81talk 08:41, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Sgubaldo: Courtesy ping for ya. Trailblazer101 (talk) 03:09, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ah yes, good point. December 6, 2024 then, please. Sgubaldo (talk) 06:11, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Just a thought – the awards list for The Force Awakens was suggested for December 13, and since we generally aim for variety on the main page, it might not be ideal to have two sci-fi movie awards lists so close to each other. Maybe one of them could wait? Personally, I think it makes more sense to have Interstellar this year and TFA next year so each is listed at its ten-year anniversary. Alternatively, this list could run in early November to align with its original release date. Pinging Sgubaldo and Chompy Ace for input. RunningTiger123 (talk) 19:13, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- If Chompy is alright with it, I'd like the Interstellar one to run in December this year because it's specifically the 10th anniversary, which is a significant milestone. If Chompy still wants to run TFA, then I suppose I can move Interstellar to something like November 8. Sgubaldo (talk) 19:18, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- Sgubaldo, I will keep my The Force Awakens nom. As a result, the Interstellar one would be suggested for November 8, 2024, closest to the film's tenth anniversary of its United States release (as outlined in the references). Chompy Ace 01:01, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Would suggest for December 13, 2024, as it is the closest to the anniversary of the Hollywood, Los Angeles, premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens on December 14, 2015. Chompy Ace 23:59, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
Outline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe
[edit]The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is an American media franchise and shared universe created by Marvel Studios. Beginning in 2008 with the release of the film Iron Man, the franchise has since expanded to include various feature films and television series produced by Marvel Studios, television series from Marvel Television, and other media based on Marvel Comics characters. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige oversees the main MCU productions. The MCU, similar to the original Marvel Universe, was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters. It has been commercially successful, becoming one of the highest-grossing media franchises and the highest-grossing film franchise. This includes Avengers: Endgame, which concluded its theatrical run in 2019 as the highest-grossing film of all time. The franchise's success has influenced other studios to attempt similar shared universes. (Full list...)
I would like to suggest this for May 2, 2025, as it is the 17 year anniversary of the release of the first MCU film, Iron Man, to a tee. I know 2025 is a ways away, though I felt it was best to get this submitted sooner rather than later. Trailblazer101 (talk) 05:46, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
77th Academy Awards
[edit]The 77th Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honored films released in 2004 and took place on February 27, 2005, at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. During the ceremony, AMPAS presented Academy Awards in 24 categories. The ceremony, televised in the United States by ABC, was produced by Gilbert Cates and directed by Louis J. Horvitz.

Other winners included The Aviator with five awards and The Incredibles and Ray with two. The telecast garnered over 42 viewers in the United States. (Full list...)
I would like this list to be posted on March 3 since the 97th Academy Awards are scheduled for March 2 (or March 3 00:00 UTC), and it will have been 20 years since this particular ceremony occurred. Birdienest81talk 06:04, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
List of presidents of the United States
[edit]Since the presidency of the United States was established in 1789, 45 men have served in 46 presidencies. The president is the head of state and government, elected indirectly for a four-year term via the Electoral College. The officeholder leads the executive branch of the federal government and is the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces. The first president, George Washington, won a unanimous vote of the Electoral College, and was the only one never affiliated with a political party. William Henry Harrison's presidency was the shortest at 31 days. Franklin D. Roosevelt served the longest, over twelve years, and is the only president to serve more than two terms. Since the Twenty-second Amendment in 1951, no person may be elected president more than twice, and no one who has served more than two years of another's term may be elected more than once. Four presidents died of natural causes in office (William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Warren G. Harding, and Franklin D. Roosevelt), four were assassinated (Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, and John F. Kennedy), and one resigned (Richard Nixon). The incumbent president is _____, who assumed office on January 20, 20__ (Full list...)
Feel free to copy-edit the blurb or make any other appropriate changes. As for the image, I decided to go with this group pic rather that simply the presidential flag or the White House. The portraits of Joe Biden/Donald Trump might be a bit controversial. I, alongside many other editors, helped promote this list to FL status a few years ago, and what would be a better date to run it than January 20, 2025 (Monday)! The only hurdle would be that we'll require assistance from an admin to update it real-time to change it from Biden to whoever would be. Let me know what your thoughts are. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 19:09, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- What if it was worded as "The most recently elected president is ___, who takes office on January 20, 2025."? I don't think that would have to be updated during the day. RunningTiger123 (talk) 19:56, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- "45 men have served in 46 presidencies" will also be needed to update; as the things stand, Biden is not seeking another term, so this figure, for sure, would have to be changed at 12 noon Washington DC time, or whenever the next president takes the oath. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:07, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Good point. If we end up having an admin update this, I don't think that would be too challenging as long as the exact change is specified in advance. RunningTiger123 (talk) 04:00, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

United States congressional delegations from Arizona
[edit]![Map of Arizona's nine congressional districts for the United States House of Representatives since 2022](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Arizona_Congressional_Districts%2C_118th_Congress.svg/150px-Arizona_Congressional_Districts%2C_118th_Congress.svg.png)
Since Arizona became a U.S. state in 1912, it has sent congressional delegations to the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives, beginning with the 63rd United States Congress in 1913. Before becoming a state, the Arizona Territory elected a non-voting delegate at-large to Congress from 1864 to 1912. Each state elects two senators to serve for six years, and varying numbers of members of the House, depending on state population, to two-year terms. Arizona has sent nine members to the House in each delegation since the 2010 United States Census. A total of 57 people have served Arizona in the House and 14 have served Arizona in the Senate. The first woman to serve Arizona in the House was Isabella Greenway. Seven women have served Arizona in the House, including Kyrsten Sinema and Martha McSally, who also served Arizona in the Senate, the only women to do so. (Full list...)

- If it were to appear that day, the blurb could be changed from "Their second album, No Obligation, will be released in 2024" to "Their second album, No Obligation, was released in 2024" or "was released today". – The Sharpest Lives (💬•✏️•ℹ️) (ping me!) 21:15, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
List of accolades received by Coco (2017 film)
[edit]Coco, a 2017 American animated fantasy comedy-drama film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures, won 63 awards from 81 nominations, with particular recognition for Michael Giacchino's (pictured) score. At the 90th Academy Awards, it won Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song. The film garnered two nominations at the 75th Golden Globe Awards, winning for Best Animated Feature Film. Coco also won the BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film and the Critics' Choice Movie Award for both Best Animated Feature and Best Song. It was named one of the ten best films of 2017 by the National Board of Review. (Full list...)
Would suggest for October 21, 2024, as it is the closest to the anniversary of Coco's premiere at the Morelia International Film Festival. Chompy Ace 09:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
List of cities in Donetsk Oblast
[edit]In Ukraine's eastern Donetsk Oblast, there are 52 populated places officially granted city status by the Verkhovna Rada, the country's parliament. Settlements with more than 10,000 people are eligible to become cities although the status is also typically given by parliament to settlements of historical or regional importance. According to the country's last official census in 2001, the most populous city in the oblast was the regional capital Donetsk, with a population of 1,016,194 people, while the least populous city was Sviatohirsk, with 5,136 people. Following fighting during the Donbas war, 21 of the oblast's cities were occupied by pro-Russian separatists. After the enactment of decommunization laws across the country, ten cities in both Ukrainian-controlled and separatist-occupied territory were given new names in 2016 which were unrecognized by de facto pro-Russian officials in the occupied cities. During the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russian troops have occupied an additional eleven cities, of which two (Lyman and Sviatohirsk) were recovered by Ukraine. (Full list...)
List of Johnson solids
[edit]The Johnson solid is a convex polyhedron in which all of the faces are regular polygons. Here, polyhedron means a three-dimensions object containing flat faces that are bounded by the edges, and a polyhedron is said to be convex if the faces are not in the same plane and the edges are not in the same line. There are 92 Johnson solids, and some of the authors exclude uniform polyhedrons from the definition: Archimedean solids, Platonic solids, prisms, and antiprisms. The set of solids was published by American mathematician Norman Johnson in 1966. The list was completed and no other examples existed was proved by Russian-Israeli mathematician Victor Zalgaller in 1969. (Full list...)
I would like to suggest two dates based on the international day: either the date of December 5, 2024 as part of the International Dodecahedron Day or the date of March 14, 2025, which coincide the International Day of Mathematics. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 04:57, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- I think March 14, 2025 works better, as it falls on a Friday (December 5 is a Thursday this year so the date would have to be shifted). RunningTiger123 (talk) 19:06, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
List of Zambian parliamentary constituencies
[edit]The National Assembly is the unicameral legislature of Zambia, a landlocked country in southern Africa, east of Angola. The seat of the assembly is at the capital of the country, Lusaka, and it is presided over by a Speaker and two deputy Speakers. The National Assembly has existed since 1964, before which it was known as the Legislative Council. Since 2016, the assembly has had 167 members. Of those, 156 are elected by the first-past-the-post system in single-member constituencies, a further eight are appointed by the President, and three others are ex officio members. The constitution mandates that the constituencies are delimited after every census by the Electoral Commission of Zambia. (Full list...)
Doctor Who Christmas and New Year's Specials
[edit]![The TARDIS on the set of "The Church on Ruby Road"](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1a/Tardis_in_Snow.jpg/125px-Tardis_in_Snow.jpg)
Since 2005, Doctor Who has aired 19 special episodes on Christmas or New Year's Day. During its original run, from 1963–1989, episodes were occasionally broadcast over holiday periods, but they rarely made mention of the holidays. Once the programme was revived in 2005, special Christmas episodes were produced yearly until 2017. From 2018–2022, the show transitioned to New Year's Day specials instead. The series then returned to Christmas specials once more in 2023. The holiday episodes have proven to be a success with viewers, by bringing in larger viewing figures than regular episodes of the programme. Doctor Who is a British science-fiction television series that airs on BBC One and releases on Disney+. It revolves around an alien called the Doctor who travels with a companion in a time and space machine called the TARDIS. A twentieth special, "Joy to the World", is set to release on December 25, 2024. (Full list...)
I'd like to suggest this for December 23, 2024, for obvious reasons. Thanks! TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:39, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
List of Liechtenstein general elections
[edit]General elections in Liechtenstein have been held since the ratification of the 1862 constitution in which the Landtag of Liechtenstein was established. Political parties did not exist in Liechtenstein until they were formed in 1918. Before the ratification of the 1921 constitution, the head of government was not elected, but rather appointed by the prince of Liechtenstein, thus elections were only held to elect members of the Landtag. Under the constitution general elections are held for the members of the Landtag of Liechtenstein, who then elect the prime minister. As of 2021, there have been 48 general elections held in Liechtenstein. (Full list...)

List of Seattle Kraken draft picks
[edit]The Seattle Kraken have selected 36 players through four NHL entry drafts as of 2024. The Kraken compete in the National Hockey League as a member of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference and began play during the league's 2021–22 season.

The Kraken's first-ever draft pick was Matty Beniers, taken second overall in the 2021 NHL entry draft. After the 2022–23 season, Beniers won the Calder Memorial Trophy as the league's best rookie after accumulating 24 goals and 33 assists in 80 games. The Kraken's second overall pick in 2021 was the highest they have ever drafted. Only four of the Kraken's draft picks have gone on to play with the Kraken: Beniers, Ryker Evans, Ryan Winterton, and Shane Wright. (Full list...)

List of Seattle Kraken broadcasters
[edit]John Forslund has been the Kraken's play-by-play announcer for all three of their seasons. The Seattle Kraken have been primarily televised on Root Sports Northwest and radio broadcast primarily on KJR-FM. The Kraken compete in the National Hockey League as a member of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference and began play during the league's 2021–22 season.

In August 2022, the team hired Eddie Olczyk to be a television analyst alongside Forslund and Brown. Everett Fitzhugh serves as the team's primary radio play-by-play announcer. He is the first Black full-time play-by-play announcer in NHL history. Dave Tomlinson served as Fitzhugh's color analyst for the Kraken's first two seasons, before resigning in August 2023. The Kraken hired commentator Al Kinisky to replace him. Kraken games were televised regionally on Root Sports Northwest for the team's first three seasons.
