Impossible. Featured articles are determined by FAC,
which is as
ridden or more so with politics as AFD, DRV, and other such eyesores:
standards are constantly shifting and unevenly applied. Good Articles
itself has turned into a mockery of FAC.
Raul as Featured Articles Dictator might apply the cattleprod enema a
bit more thoroughly. If FAC has gone off into one of those weird
genetic drift zone of ten people agreeing to 'consensus' that drives
others out and fails to serve Wikipedia, and if GA has done the same
(considering GA was supposed to be the process-light parallel to
unclog FAC), then burning it down and building something that actually
gets back to the really quite short and reasonable FA criteria might
be well in order.
