  "What Is and What Should Never Be"
  "All Hell Breaks Loose"

I feel that this topic is incomplete. Sure there are no other articles relating to the second season on Wikipedis, but that's just it. This topic only has the season proper and two episode articles, one being the season finale even though the other is not for the season premiere. If you have a topic that is for an entire season and its missing a huge chunk of it, it just screams that it fails 1.d in the criteria. GamerPro64 00:31, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delist to those curious, check Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Supernatural (season 2)/archive1 discussion. Nergaal (talk) 04:01, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep (as original editor). There are no other articles because any relevant information for the rest of the season, including the premiere, is included in the season article. The events and thoughts behind the premiere impact the entire season, and thus are more relevant to the season article. Ωphois 23:02, 9 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I don't see a need to delist to force other articles to be created. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • This review wasn't intended to try to force articles to be created. Rather to show that this topic is incomplete. Criteria 1.d says "There are no obvious gaps (missing or low quality articles) in the topic". And this topic is missing articles. And if there is no clear way to make articles that can obtain at least Good Article status then this topic needs to be delisted. GamerPro64 19:25, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • That is your interpretation of the policy. All relevant information for the other episodes is adequately covered in the season page, so there are no "missing" articles in my opinion. Ωphois 18:19, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The retention period for Metamorfosis World Tour ended on June 9, so this topic no longer satisfies criterion 3(b), so the topic should be demoted until that article gets up to at least GA.--十八 07:49, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • The reason why I myself did not start a GTR was because the article for the World Tour is up at GAN. It has been for over a month and if say it was promoted the day after this nomination was made, the review comes off as irrelevant. GamerPro64 13:57, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Final Fantasy XII edit

edit | discuss
  Final Fantasy XII
8 articles
 
  Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings
  Fortress
  Ivalice
  Music
  Characters
  Vaan
  Balthier

I recently brought up this issue at WT:VG here regarding this topic's status, but didn't get much of a response, so I'm bringing it here. Basically, I realized that while Characters of Final Fantasy XII is a GA and in the topic, two branch articles from that article, Vaan and Balthier, are not at least GAs and are obviously not included. These two articles were recreated in October 2009, about a year after this topic was first approved, and it looks like they were overlooked based on an assumption which User:PresN stated in the above linked thread: I guess the idea is that since Characters of Final Fantasy XII is in the topic, that Vaan and Balthier, as subarticles of that list, don't need to be directly included.

But I find this argument to be a little shallow when, as I noted, WP:VG has two current FTs which include separate character articles in their topics so as to satisfy WP:WIAFT criterion 1(d) for completeness: Wikipedia:Featured topics/Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and (perhaps ironically, being another Final Fantasy topic) Wikipedia:Featured topics/Final Fantasy VIII. So I believe this topic should be delisted until Vaan and Balthier are brought up to at least GA and added to the topic per criterion 1(d). Also, the GA Fortress may also need to be added to the topic, but perhaps that is for a later discussion.--十八 22:01, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Both articles look really good. A few easy to fix issues are there such as proper ref citation. Fortress is already at GA. I suggest fixing these articles within the week and nominate them for Ga. If they fail, then we remove it as a featured topic. If we remove it now then itll just leave more work.Lucia Black (talk) 22:20, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - I agree that the Fortress article must be added to satisfy completeness, but I think the character articles are a grey area. The featured topic criteria is vague on this point, and it has been understood to this point that these topics are focused on the game articles themselves. Perhaps we have to first come to a consensus on what the correct formatting should be, and it probably goes like this; if there is a "characters of" article with two or more character articles, that should be a separate topic, and only the characters of article should be present inthe games article with a link to the separate character topic. If there is one character article, it should be added to the topic for completeness sake.Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:54, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I am finding it difficult to accept this reasoning. How can you suggest that a list of all the characters of a given game is more necessary for inclusion than individual character articles from the same game? Just because it covers more content? If this isn't an example of cherry picking, I don't know what is. Why should the project treat only this topic differently when there are two current topics that have character branch articles?--十八 00:07, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oh I agree with you, we should not treat articles differently. I am saying that this has been a gray area till now, since topics have been promoted both with and without their individual character articles. I am saying that we should find a consensus position, and my proposal is that if there are at least 3 character articles (1 characters of article and 2 individual characters, they should be a subtopic, and only the characters of article should be in the games topic. Otherwise, they should all be a part of the games topic. If this reasoning makes sense, I think a nomination should be started to add the Fortress article and define the criteria at the featured topics criteria talk page. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 00:15, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Judgesurreal777's reasonings. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 23:09, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Lucia. They do look good. Close this FTRC, GAN them, and do a supplemental nomination. No need to go through this extra step of bureaucracy. Axem Titanium (talk) 01:09, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
So what you're saying is to have this FTRC closed, then put them up for GAN which may take weeks leaving a void in the topic and then do a supp nom even though there was an FTRC that would've taken care of it all. I'm sorry but as a delegate, and you mentioning these two articles should be part of the topic in the first place which doesn't make sense, I think the review should stay up until the GANs are taken care of. GamerPro64 01:26, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If you're saying that a potential outcome of this FTRC is that those two character articles are added to the FT (i.e. duplicating the functionality of a supplemental nom), then by all means, keep the FTRC open and do that. What I don't want is multiple drawn-out bureaucratic processes when one would suffice. Axem Titanium (talk) 18:30, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • The GANs for final fantasy related article go pretty fast. I think we are moving to fast just to un-feature the topic. There is still the question of editors believing the character articles is too indirect to be part oof the topic.Lucia Black (talk) 05:40, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Nominated Vaan for GA while we are at it. I haven't contributed too much to Balthier so I'm unsure about it.Tintor2 (talk) 19:42, 16 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Balthier has been nominated as well (not by me). --PresN 03:23, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Vaan now a GA; I've updated the box above to match the proposed expansion. --PresN 17:40, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Noticing that Balthier is now a Good Article, I will now Close this as Keep. GamerPro64 00:56, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The last time I tried doing a review on this topic, User:Rambo's Revenge pointed out that BBC Sports Unsung Hero Award was added due to criteria 3c and would have to wait til the tenth time the awards been given out. Now, three months after it did back in December 2012, the page is not up to snuff and its grace period has ended. And since Rambo is inactive hopefully someone could take care of the list. GamerPro64 20:03, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - the best this article could hope for would be Good Article I suspect, as it lists people that don't meet the notability criteria of Wikipedia. If it made GA, being the only one of nine of the topic not being featured, would it still be a featured topic, or should we save the energy and just make it a Good Topic? The Rambling Man (talk) 20:30, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes it would still be a Featured Topic. A topic is featured if 50% or more are of Featured Content. GamerPro64 20:43, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • So it has to be a GA? It's been peer-reviewed... The Rambling Man (talk) 20:46, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        • It has but since 10 people have been awarded that honor, 3.c does not support it anymore. GamerPro64 20:50, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
          • So, in English (since your criteria are quite unapproachable!), this needs to become a GA? The Rambling Man (talk) 20:51, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
            • Or Featured List. Whatever floats your boat really. GamerPro64 20:53, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
              • Okeydokes, nominated as a good article, please allow this nomination to take into account that the GA process is notoriously slow ("Your GAN is 71st in a priority queue...." as of tonight) and that the primary editor of the topic is no longer present. I'll do my best to cover this, unless that's not deemed good enough. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:57, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, the FLC is here. It's going okay. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:39, 27 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done BBC Sports Unsung Hero Award was promoted to FL a few minutes ago, so unless there are wider concerns, I guess we can consider this FTC as job done! The Rambling Man (talk) 19:02, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am placing this topic up for FTRC as it fails criterion 3.b due to articles Halo 4 and Halo 4 Original Soundtrack are not at least Good Article. It should also be noted that while Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is not part of the topic either, it is currently at GA status. GamerPro64 02:06, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • For what it's worth I'm happy to add Combat Evolved Anniversary to the topic as part of this process rather than going through a separate one for it. GRAPPLE X 02:36, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Halo 4 is not part of the Good topic, so why does its status matter? You could argue that by 1d, Halo 4 should be added to the topic and therefore it would fail 3b, but I think you'd need to form a consensus to add Halo 4 to the topic before jumping to the fail step. It's not as though one of the already chosen articles lost its GA status at GAR. It does not seem necessary to me that the topic include Halo 4, and the topics that are included seem sufficient for good topic status. I oppose delisting the topic as it stands, and I oppose adding Halo 4 to the topic. But as an alternative, perhaps the topic could be limited to the "Halo trilogy" or the "Halo trilogy and related media"? --Odie5533 (talk) 00:59, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    The point is that Halo 4 should be part of the topic given its stated scope. The proposed "Halo trilogy" idea seems needlessly narrow, especially as the parent article for the topic, List of Halo media, includes the missing articles. GRAPPLE X 01:03, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist The topic no longer contains all the articles that are within its scope, and therefore currently fails criterion 1.d. In addition to Halo 4, Halo 4 Original Soundtrack, and Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary (although it's already a GA, so it's kind of a moot point), Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn (which is also included in List of Halo media) should also be in this topic, too. Since the topic's retention period recently expired, and with 3 articles left to get up to at least GA, I believe the topic should be delisted until after this happens.--十八 11:05, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
