Final Fantasy titles (1st supplementary nomination)[edit]

This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Final Fantasy titles/archive1 for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:

  1. Final Fantasy
Main page Articles
Final Fantasy Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy III, Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy V, Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy IX, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2, Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantasy Mystic Quest

Since "topics with gaps" are already moving to the FTR, looks like it's a good idea to replace the main article from "former featured list" to "featured article". We can re-add it as soon as it improves. (we could put other FF Good/featured articlesin the nom, but depends on how the discussion here goes - the FTC usually complains when cherry-picking articles) igordebraga 18:17, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question - What will happen to the series article once the list is brought back up to FL? Will it remain the main article, be moved to a regular article of the topic, or removed? (Guyinblack25 talk 18:27, 9 January 2008 (UTC))[reply]
    • Sorry, I put the proposition instead of the current topic. The current main article is List of Final Fantasy titles, which was demoted of FL status. I'm nominating to replace it with the series article. igordebraga 19:46, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Yes, I was asking what will happen to the series article once "List of Final Fantasy titles" is brought back up to FL? Will the Final Fantasy series article remain the main article for the topic after "List of Final Fantasy titles" is brought back up to FL? (Guyinblack25 talk 21:20, 9 January 2008 (UTC))[reply]
        • The topic can go like the Kingdom Hearts one, in which the series is the main and the list of media is one of the articles. igordebraga 15:48, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
          • Cool, sounds very reasonable. One more question; would the name also change from "Final Fantasy titles" to simply "Final Fantasy"? (Guyinblack25 talk 16:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC))[reply]
            • Since the topic features only game titles (and FF has a lot to offer: music, movies, TV series and gameplay-related articles), I think we don't need to change the name. igordebraga 17:37, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support change to main article- Final Fantasy is an excellent main article, and meets the requirements. --PresN (talk) 20:47, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - One the media article gets its featured list status back though, we should add it to this topic. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 23:33, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose - I see why you are doing this, but I think it would be better to just get the existing main article back up to Fl status. It seems to me that a topic with Final Fantasy as the main article should include (for example) an article on the history of the series and an article on its cultural impact. --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 18:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • If I may ask, why would separate articles on the history and cultural impact be required? I know those may have been arbitrary examples, but other video game topics don't have similar articles and such information is already covered in the main series article.

      • Looking back, I guess precident has been set to allow a topic organized like this. In fact, once the list is brought back up to FL status, you could include it as a member of the topic, since the Mary Wollstonecraft topic has a timeline in it. --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 16:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support Although I think it is Gerrymandering, I will allow it. Zginder (talk) (Contrib) 01:30, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Close debate as pass --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 04:27, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
