• "Cheetahs on the Edge (Director's Cut)" - is there no "Featured video" category?--ukexpat (talk) 14:59, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
• Small typo: "Petualangan Sharina" should be "Petualangan Sherina". Cheers. Bennylin (talk) 15:56, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

• Fixed, thanks. If you spot a typo it's ok to boldly fix it. --Pine^✉ 19:34, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

• I agree with Ukexpat. If there is no featured video category, we may want to add one. Zell Faze (talk) 17:02, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

• As far as I know, all videos on English Wikipedia and Commons that are featured go through FPC. It seems to work ok, and adding another featured queue for reviewers to watch is something that I think would just create extra work with no meaningful benefit. --Pine^✉ 19:34, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

• I only asked because it looks kinda odd for a video to have a caption referring to it as a "Featured picture".--ukexpat (talk) 00:33, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

• A motion picture may be picture as well :) Probably some day FPs and featured videos acquire a more general title of featured media. Brandmeister^talk 00:38, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

• "Featured media" would include featured sounds, and so far as I know, no one has proposed a merger of featured pictures with featured sounds. We could rename "featured pictures" to "featured visual media" but I think that's more trouble than it's worth. --Pine^✉ 00:48, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

• "it looks kinda odd for a video to have a caption referring to it as a "Featured picture"" - As Brandmeister says, they are also "motion" or "moving" pictures. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:06, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
