Feel free to edit the version above to discuss — it makes it easier than having eight different possibilities in the same section. One thing that would be very good is if the image could be clickable to hear the sound, but I don't know if there any way to do that with the current code. Also, it would

I have proposed the creation of a new WikiProject dedicated to collecting, and critqueing sounds for
Featured Status. Sounds is the smallest group of Featured Content on Knowledge, and we need to help fix that. So if you like, please click on the following link, and second my proposal, so it can be

In two cases, the Spring
Peepers and the Alligator field recordings, both an edited version and the origional version of the field recording were promoted, presumably by accident, as only the edited versions gained consensus and were slated for promotion. I "delisted" the two incorrect promotions,

Yes, I agree. I've been thinking of how to do this. The problem is that we have a very small group of active members at FS and I don't think any of their expertise lies in this sort of thing. I'm going to ask around and such. Part of the issue lies in that the sound file boxes are large. Maybe two

I have performed a count and updated the numbers. There are 154 featured sounds in 229 parts. There are 230 parts on the portal, however I left out of the count one file, "Complete version: Theme and
Variations I through VI" as it was redundant to the five part multi-part submission immediately
820:, which lists 233 items. I will investigate this further in the future. Please note that this was not a pleasant task, but I felt it had to be done because we had competing information between the portal, the category, and the FS logs. Therefore, please indulge the following rant:

Indeed, the file didn't work for me either. I transferred the featured template to the new file and replaced it on the portal page. Since the original is not working at all, I consider this non-controversial. Thank you for tracking down a good copy.
806:
P.S. I'm manually updating the count at the top soon. It's currently wrong. Without having performed an official count, my current estimate lies at 149 files in 232 parts. The logs from 2008 were heavily off. I will investigate in the near future.

swapped out the portal sounds of the originals for those of the edits, and made sure all of the file pages themselves reflected the correct outcomes of the FSCs. Neither FSC were recent, and thus far I have not seen anything else like this.

I tried to convince the peoples over there that featured images should be changed to featured media, and include recordings and videos, especially since both can now be played in-browser, but there was a lot of resistance to that. See

This is to let people know that there is only a day or so left on a poll. The poll is an attempt to end years of argument about autoformatting which has also led to a dispute about date linking. Your votes are welcome at:

Why is
Featured sounds in portal namespace whereas everything else is in Knowledge space? I have no preference which is where - I just find it odd to not have all of the featured content pages in the same space.

There's been such a drastic variety in music, inclusion of electronic instruments and spread of genres recently that I think more samples are needed to perfect the range of 'best sounds of
Knowledge'
