As this is still a fairly small Wikipedia with little activity (only '''{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}''' articles so far), there is no regularly scheduled program for selecting or nominating "featured articles". It is hoped that this will be addressed at some future point with a nominating system, once more users begin contributing.
To date, there have been 5 featured articles. Some of these were written specifically for the purpose of giving the main page an inviting appearance. This was inspired by the Swahili wikipedia, where the "featured article" was '''"[[:sw:Panzi|Panzi]]"''' (grasshopper) for six months. Anyone at all with any suggestions for improving this system is welcome to leave discussion on the talk page by clicking ውይይት above.
