User blog comment:Gideoncrawle/Featured Quote Revival -- Opinions Wanted/@comment-2021069-20110925013200

I really would love to see Featured Quote back. I wasn't really active around the time that it started/died off and I think that there are a lot of stories popping up that could be considered easy to quote. While I don't always vote for the Featureds (mostly because I don't really read stories thoroughly enough to choose who I think should earn the win and I sometimes consider them to be popularity contests), this is one that I would happily participate in.

I also support the idea of the themed cycle. I think that would make people really think about which quotes they want to vote for as well as get some unexpected nominations on the ballot (for themes like tearjerkers).
