 * Vote: 2
 * For: Arodp88 (talk), User:SilverTiger12
 * Against:
 * Pros:
 * This meets all requirements given on the Featured sources page -Arodp88 (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * There are no red links in the index or the article, with the exception of some of the real-world artists -Arodp88 (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * The index is complete (the only things which were not included in the index were instances in which the OU and omniscient author uses real-world animals to explain or illustrate a point: for example, the sentence "The faces of aarakocras resemble a cross between those of parrots and eagles" was not taken to be an appearance of either parrots or eagles) -Arodp88 (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * The index is organized based on what is or is not an actionable sourcebook entry (for example, characters are indexed as refonly unless their crunch or at least level is provided, and similarly, spells are refonly unless their game information is included) -Arodp88 (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * We do not currently have any monster compendiums/manuals or 3rd edition sourcebooks on the list of Featured Sources -Arodp88 (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
