Final Fantasy XII[edit]

I am nominating this good topic for removal because it fails criterion 3.(a)(i) "All articles are at least featured lists or good articles." Characters of Final Fantasy XII was demoted from good article status down to "list"-class status on June 17, 2009 and the topic has reached the end of its grace period on September 17, 2009.

  • Note: User:Rreagan007 has reassessed Characters of Final Fantasy XII to B-class status. Megata Sanshiro (talk) 16:15, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Demote - Characters of Final Fantasy XII should be back up to GA by now - rst20xx (talk) 16:32, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Ugh. Character articles aren't really my thing, but I don't want to see the SE project lose another Topic, so I'm working on this article. No promises on how long it will take, but I'll get it to GA. I'm hoping to have it at GAN before the two weeks are up, but I don't care if the topic gets demoted and has to be renominated, GAN takes a while. --PresN 16:22, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Aside from Characters of FFXII, Fortress (video game) also needs to be included in the topic for comprehensiveness. It is unlikely to reach GA status since it's an unannounced game, but it satisfies the criteria of notability and is related to FFXII. A peer review would be needed for inclusion in this topic.

  • Good point, but Fortress has three months to get PR'd and added before it becomes a problem, since you started it on the 22nd, so I'm not too concerned about it yet. It doesn't need to get done for this particular FTR. --PresN 17:43, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Now at GAN. --PresN 19:02, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
May as well wait and see how the GAN goes then. May take a while (I am currently in a GAN queue with a backlog from July!), but is no rush to delist for something that would certinaly get relisted in the near future, imo.YobMod 22:50, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Same here with the backlog, but mine are in the Music section, VGames tends to move a bit faster. I agree with waiting for the outcome, but don't care either way. --PresN 00:01, 30 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Just to update everyone, Characters of Final Fantasy XII is once again a Good Article. GamerPro64 (talk) 21:13, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - PresN, I noticed that you cut the Revenant Wings characters out of the article. These characters are no longer covered anywhere in the topic - rst20xx (talk) 00:10, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • You have a point. I changed the article from, basically, "Characters of FF12 and FF12 Revenant Wings" to just that of FF12, which is what it's actually named; I've gone back and put some information about the Revenant characters into the Revenant article. I don't think there really needs to be much more information about them; Revenant Wings was just a much less notable game than FF12. 12 has enough information and notability to support character and music articles in addition to the game article; Revenant can barely support just itself. The two articles aren't in the topic as equals for a reason; Revenant is definitively under XII in the hierarchy. --PresN 01:22, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK, that's fine by me, thanks - rst20xx (talk) 23:13, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep listed, now that the problemarticle has been brought up to standard.YobMod 09:49, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per YobMod. — Blue 06:46, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Close with consensus to keep - well done PresN - rst20xx (talk) 11:28, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    Also I put a retention on for Fortress (Square Enix) needing a PR by December 22 - rst20xx (talk) 11:34, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
