High quality articles, although admittedly a very obscure topic. Half FA, with one more on its way to FA from GA right now. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:51, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Considering that these films are considered lost, these articles are extremely complete, and the series of articles themselves is of course a complete set. (It's also a stable set, as the studio is long gone.) They're all standardized style, but many have unique gems of info. A nice side note: the set is wonderful at helping counter systemic bias on Wikipedia. (In the interest of disclosure, I did the GA reviews for four of these articles, two of which have since passed FAC, so this isn't the first time I've encountered the topic.) -- Zanimum (talk) 14:05, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for all of the reviews! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:22, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support. An impressive cataloging of this little Indonesian film company's history and product. I see Kedok Ketawa is also on the cusp of FA. — Maile (talk) 17:33, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for reviewing. Yeah, Kedok Ketawa shouldn't be more than 2 weeks out. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 17:55, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Closed with a consensus to promote to Featured Topic. - GamerPro64 22:36, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The lead is a Good Article, and the two topics are both Featured. Raphines are extinct birds, and include the very well known Dodo. The only other raphine is the Rodrigues Solitaire, which has been found to be related to the Dodo since the early 1800s. The two birds were hunted to extinction one after another by human settlers, who also introduced carnivorous mammals like cats and pigs. --IJReid (talk) 00:47, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Spectacular work. Just address some red links on the Raphinae article (sentence- "and so placed Inepti in the order Rasores, as the sister family to Gallinacei, Epollicati, Columbini, and Crypturi." --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 11:44, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
All the images except to Epollicati have been fixed. I cannot find what the modern name for Epollicati is, so currently I cannot fix its redlink. WonderBoy1998, it this a problem or not? IJReid (talk) 14:45, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
A red link is definitely a problem since it just leads to a page that doesn't even exist. Why don't you just remove the link to Epollicati? --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 16:33, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The point of a red link is also to encourage people to create articles when they encounter them. These examples seem to be obsolete taxa though, so could probably redirect to something. I and Ian can maybe figure out what they're referring to... FunkMonk (talk) 16:40, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks FunkMonk for replying for me, btw my name is Iain (misspelt often as Ian and once even Iaian). Turns out the link should be removed, which I did, because by definition, Epollicati paraphyletic. IJReid (talk) 00:25, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating Audie Murphy as a Good Featured Topic. He was a Medal of Honor recipient and one of the most decorated soldiers in the United States. He had a lengthy second career as a film actor. The lead article is currently GA, but is also FAC. He an important figure in American history. — Maile (talk) 20:56, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment What about Discography of Audie Murphy? Criterion 1(d) states: "There are no obvious gaps (missing or low quality articles) in the topic. A topic must not cherry pick only the best articles to become featured together."--十八 21:09, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Clarify for me, please. This is my first time around with GT. The Discography is just a list-class split from the main article. Do I have to get that one GA also to put this up for GT? Actually, it can't be GA, because they don't do lists. — Maile (talk) 21:21, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Have you by chance looked at the discography? I don't know if it's something that could be FLC or not. What say you? — Maile (talk) 22:18, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As long as Discography of Audie Murphy exists, presumably it should be included on a topic on Audie Murphy, as not doing so would be an example of cherry picking per the criterion I quoted above. I do think it is possible for the article to become a featured list with some work, however. Since the article is more of a song list than a traditional discography, take a look at WP:FL#Songs recorded by artists for some similar articles. I'm not sure if the article should be moved to List of songs written by Audie Murphy or not, though.--十八 00:13, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The topic is neat but please have the discography part covered. Nergaal (talk) 11:02, 17 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I'm working on the idea. I need time to think about this. There is such scant information available, pretty much what I've already listed in the references of the discography article. — Maile (talk) 12:33, 17 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think that should suffice. Nergaal (talk) 09:00, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, that's good to know. I'll work on expanding the prose a bit. — Maile (talk) 11:54, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have just nominated the discography for FLC. Thank you for nudging. — Maile (talk) 20:11, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
With that in mind, I'm going to put this nomination on hold. If the discography fails its FLC, this nomination will close as fail. GamerPro64 18:15, 21 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Just a note that the main article of Audie Murphy was just promoted to FA status. — Maile (talk) 14:22, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
With that new detail, I am moving this to the FTC section. GamerPro64 15:47, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Disruptive IP edit
Inappropriate mischaracterization: "Murphy had been plagued since his military service with insomnia and bouts of depression, and slept with a loaded pistol under his pillow." Lots of people without PTSD sleep with a loaded pistol under their pillows. Associating the two is inappropriate and grossly misleading, unfair both to those suffering from PTSD as well as those who lawfully keep and bear arms in accordance with our Constitution, "the supreme Law of the Land." This line needs serious attention to remove the serious and unwarranted disservice to both groups. Someone who has access, please dive in and make it happen. Thanks. - A Veteran. 06:10, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
This is not the place for this, but it is one of the reasons we've often protected the main article. This is Disruptive editing re sourced prose in the main article which just reached FA. The subject matter has been thoroughly vetted and sourced, over and over again. This is a pattern by a sometimes blocked editor, known to use IPs not limited to one area, and also a history of prodding others to disrupt likewise. Not limited to PTSD issues or Audie Murphy, but otherwise a pattern that spans military history articles. However, this grind about the PTSD is one of the key tactics of this editor. Not a new subject and not a new tactic, except it does not belong here. 12:05, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
Because when I opened this, I wasn't aware it had to be. See discussion above. This FTC is on hold while the discography is at FLC. — Maile (talk) 11:56, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Here's another collection of awesome GAs from WikiProject Tropical cyclones! All articles passed in 2012 or later; so quality should not be an issue here. User:Hurricanehink will be a co-nominator with me. The 1966 Atlantic hurricane season featured some notable tropical cyclones. Alma had the earliest U.S. landfall for a hurricane since 1825, before reliable record even began. Faith probably tracked the farthest north and east for a hurricane in the Atlantic. It also had the longest track for a cyclone in this basin. Inez brought destruction to portion of the Lesser and Greater Antilles due to its strength and unusual path. Mexico also suffered severe damage. This is a WikiCup nomination, but I can only claim points for the main article. --12george1 (talk) 20:34, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support. The quality of Wikipedia's hurricane coverage is getting absurd—I wish our volcanism wikiproject was so active. ResMar 15:36, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delegate comment - This nomination has been up for a month with barely any discussion. There needs to be more before a consensus is reached. GamerPro64 13:46, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
