The article must be of featured status, which means that it meets a set of criteria and has been reviewed by the community. The article that you mentioned is not a featured article, but a similar proposal to what you suggested is taking place at the requests page. –thedemonhog talkedits 06:36, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

It looks like the page is locked now. I'd delete "was a community organizer" from Obama and add "and re-elected in 1992, 1998, and 2004" to McCain to make the size more equal. Smallbones (talk) 23:53, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
