Footer failure
FYI, here's a recent issue from WP:ERRORS which has now been closed there but may need some follow-up to prevent the problem(s) recurring. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:15, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
The featured article section usually has some navigational links under the blurb: Archive • By email • More featured articles. But I'm not seeing those today ― is it broken? Andrew🐉(talk) 21:19, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- The {{TFAfooter}} template is missing for some reason. It should definitely be added in, if there’s an Admin around who could oblige. - SchroCat (talk) 21:28, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
Done The Recently Featured line was also missing until I added it on January 4, without noticing the TFAfooter problem. So I don't think it was intentional and I wonder what else might be missing. Art LaPella (talk) 21:39, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
Image for upcoming TFA
User:Pinkturkeys uploaded some pictures of Beverly White that cannot be found on the internet. She says that she is the granddaughter of White and I believe her. I do not fully know the copyright regarding these, but this image seems promising as it looks like a personal family portrait while the others are her at the state legislature. Could somebody help with this?

- Sorry I didn't notice this, Jon698. Try to get them to go through the process here. Wehwalt (talk) 20:47, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
Dracula's 30th anniversary
@TFA coordinators ... Dracula was promoted earlier today. 2027 will mark the novel's 130th anniversary. My understanding of TFA is that articles can only run once per 5 years. Would there be any appetite to have Dracula appear at TFA this year and then again for the 130th anniversary? I'm keen to get it on there for the anniversary so wanted to solicit views. — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs) 20:11, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- Short answer is no. Not twice in two years. - SchroCat (talk) 20:13, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- Quote box might have another 2 years in it, then! — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs)
- Perhaps try to get Bram Stoker to FA status? Black Kite (talk) 20:18, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- Biographies aren't very engaging to me sadly :( — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs)
- Agree with SchroCat. You can have it run now or you can have it run later but not twice in two years.--Wehwalt (talk) 20:44, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- As I said, the 130th anniversary is more significant so my preference is to wait. I am not sure how this works but I assume this thread will be enough? I don't need to remove it from a queue run by a bot or whatnot? Thank you — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs) 21:01, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- @ImaginesTigers You can drop it at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/pending, which should hold you a spot for whichever future date you'd like. Panini! • 🥪 21:06, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks Panini – that's very helpful. — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs) 21:12, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
