I am nominating this for a good topic after working hard on all of the articles and bringing them to GA status during quarantine and the start of the school year. --The Ultimate Boss (talk) 21:43, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose: You've got the album and all the tracks, and they're all connected by the performer's navbox. I hate to stomp on your good work, but a topic about an album is typically expected to include the articles about any associated tours (in this case, Don't Smile at Me Tour and Where's My Mind Tour), tour films, video albums, etc. For some precedents, see e.g. Wikipedia:Featured topics/24K Magic, Wikipedia:Featured topics/In the Zone, Wikipedia:Featured topics/Title (Meghan Trainor album), and many others. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 22:02, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- Bryan Rutherford, the tour articles are nominated for deletion because lack of resources. The Ultimate Boss (talk) 23:16, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- One of the articles already got the PROD removed. So until there will be actual nominations for deletions, there are still missing pieces for the topic. GamerPro64 23:28, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- It wouldn't matter if the articles were already deleted, or even if they had never existed; the topic is still incomplete without them. The tours are notable events, beyond dispute, and they fall within the scope of this topic. A good/featured topic isn't just "the articles about this topic that currently happen to GA/FA", nor is it "the articles about this topic that currently happen to exist"; criterion 1(d) requires that the topic have "no obvious gaps (missing or low-quality articles)", so "missing articles" about notable topics that fall within the scope of the proposal fail the nomination. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 00:10, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) I was confused by The Ultimate Boss's actions until seeing this page in their recent contributions. The user nominated the article for GA twice in a row, but chose not to engage positively in any of the feedback given. The user now just tried to nominate it for PROD and then for GA in succession—presumably, the idea is that either outcome being accepted is the same as far as this topic nomination goes. I feel this should be noted here for full understanding by any users who wish to comment, but do not wish to act dismissively towards The Ultimate Boss' hard work on this topic in general. — Bilorv (talk) 00:13, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

Bilorv, you are stressing me out a lot! You are not in the position to decide to get rid of my GA nominations. If it’s an admin, then that’s fine. The Ultimate Boss (talk) 00:35, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- I'm thinking this nomination was started prematurely so I will be closing this as Not Promoted. Once the tour articles get made then it can have a leg to stand on. GamerPro64 05:07, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
