Manual
Manual closing instructions
  • Place "'''Promoted Promoted file name.ogg''' --~~~~" at the bottom of the WP:FSC/subpage
  • Replace the {{FSC}} tag on the file description page with {{FeaturedSound|"Sound name"}} (the "Sound name" parameter will link back to the FSC discussion) and remove the {{FSC}} tag from any other suggested versions.
  • If an alternate version of the originally nominated file is promoted, make sure that all articles contain the Featured Sound version, as opposed to the original.
  • Add the file to the appropriate section of Portal:Featured sounds and update the count. For symphonies and other multi-part works, create a new section for them. Use the multi-listen template as provided in the nomination. If necessary, tidy up the description to make it more accurate, informative, and interesting. If in a section that organised by year, add '''YEAR''' – before the title.
  • Add the file to Template:Announcements/New featured pages (newest on top). For multi-part works, just use *[[Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates/Nomination|Title (in X parts)]]. Otherwise, just paste in the information from the Featured Sound page again.
  • Add a notice to Wikipedia:Goings-on, using this format: {{*sound|File.ogg|Title}} by pasting in the template from the featured sounds page.
  • Notify the nominator with {{subst:PromotedFSC|Examplefilename.ogg|ExampleTitle}} ~~~~ Be sure to notify all co-nominators.
    • Example: {{subst:PromotedFSC|Turdus-migratorius-003.ogg|Song of the American robin}} ~~~~
  • If the creator of the sound file is a Wikipedian, notify them with {{subst:CreatedFS|Examplefilename.ogg|ExampleTitle}} ~~~~
    • Example: {{subst:CreatedFS|Turdus-migratorius-003.ogg|Song of the American robin}} ~~~~
  • If appropriate, notify the uploader of the file as well, using {{subst:UploadedFS|Examplefilename.ogg|ExampleTitle}} ~~~~
    • Example: {{subst:UploadedFS|Turdus-migratorius-003.ogg|Song of the American robin}} ~~~~
  • Once all the above is done, move the nomination entry to the bottom of the December archive. This is done by simply moving the line {{Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates/Sound name}} from this page to the bottom of the archive.
    • If the archive is empty add {{FSCArchiveBar}} to the top of the archive.

Not promoted

[edit]
  • Place "'''Not promoted''' ~~~~" at the bottom of the WP:FSC/subpage
  • Remove the {{FSC}} tag from the file and any other suggested versions.
  • Move the nomination entry to the bottom of the December archive. To do this, move the line {{Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates/Sound name}} from this page to the bottom of the archive.
    • If the archive is empty add {{FSCArchiveBar}} to the top of the archive.

Delisted

[edit]
  • Place "'''Delisted Example.ogg''' ~~~~" at the bottom of the WP:FSC/subpage:
  • Replace the {{FeaturedSound|Sound name}} tag on the file with {{FormerFeaturedSound|Sound name}}.
  • Remove the delisted sound from Portal:Featured sounds (if doing a replacement, instead replace with the new file, updating the description as needed) and add it to Wikipedia:Former featured sounds.
  • Add a brief note to the nominator's talk page to let them know the result.
  • If doing a replacement as well:
    • Mark the new featured sound's description page with {{FS|delist/nomination name}}. For example, if the delist nomination was Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates/delist/Foo, use {{FS|delist/Foo}}.
    • Put the new featured sound on Portal:Featured sounds, replacing the old one.
    • Replace the old featured sound with the new featured sound in articles, where appropriate. Update the description (if necessary) to cover changes in performers and so on.
    • Optional If the new featured sound is substantially different from the old, add the file to Template:Announcements/New featured pages and Wikipedia:Goings-on.
    • Optional: If appropriate, notify the uploader of the new featured sound with {{subst:UploadedFS|Filename.ogg|Title for the sound}}
  • Move the nomination entry to the bottom of the December archive. To do this, move the line {{Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates/Sound name}} from this page to the bottom of the archive.
    • If the archive is empty add {{FSCArchiveBar}} to the top of the archive.
