Featured Articles Gallery
This page is a gallery of all the past & present quests that have been featured on the front page of the wiki.
As a point of clarification beforehand, the purpose of featured quests is not a popularity contest. Quests are featured simply to raise awareness of them, and to encourage the fleshing out of their wiki articles. This has had... varying degrees of success over the years. Still, if you're looking for more quests to read this is a good place to start. (Perhaps you can share what you've learned by filling out their article afterward?)
