Wikipedia:Today's featured list
Today's featured list Today's featured list is a section included on the Main Page on Mondays and on Fridays, in which an introduction to one of Wikipedia's featured lists is displayed. The current month's queue can be found here. The lists appearing on the Main Page are scheduled by the featured list director, currently Giants2008. To be eligible to appear on the Main Page, a list must already be featured. For more information on the featured list promotion process, please see the featured list candidates, as well as the featured list criteria. In addition, a blurb is drafted, introducing the subject of the list. Blurbs are roughly 1,000 characters in length, with no reference tags, alternate names or extraneous boldface type, although a link to the specified featured list should be emboldened; a relevant picture is also usually included with the blurb. The previous three lists that were featured on the Main Page appear along the bottom, in reverse chronological order. You can submit a list to be scheduled at the submissions page. At the moment, lists are scheduled by the featured list director or by the featured list delegates, although we will eventually be devising a community-based system for selecting each day's list. We encourage editors to submit and to review as many blurbs as possible. If you notice a problem with an upcoming featured list to appear on the Main Page, please leave a message at the Main Page errors page or here. Further suggestions on how you can participate can be found here. |

The master of Trinity College oversees the general operation of Trinity College, a constituent college of the University of Cambridge. The role is officially appointed by the British monarch at the recommendation of the college, and involves presiding over meetings of the college council and its governing body, although the executive powers of the master are limited. In 1546, Trinity College was founded by King Henry VIII, merging the colleges of Michaelhouse and King's Hall. John Redman, then Warden of King's Hall, was thus appointed the first master of Trinity College. There have been 40 appointments to the position; William Bill was appointed master twice, in 1551 and 1558. The longest-serving master was Richard Bentley, from 1700 until his death in 1741. The incumbent, Dame Sally Davies (pictured), was appointed master of Trinity College on 8 February 2019, and is the first woman to hold the position. (Full list...)
