Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates

Featured and good topics in Wikipedia

A featured topic (FT) is a collection of inter-related articles in which at least half are featured articles or featured lists. The remaining articles must be at least good quality.

A good topic (GT) is a collection of inter-related articles that are of a good quality (though are not necessarily featured articles) with a less stringent quality threshold than a featured topic.

This page is for the nomination of potential featured and good topics. See the featured and good topic criteria for criteria on both types of topic.

Before nominating a topic, nominators may wish to receive feedback by listing it at the Featured and good topics talk page. Nominators must be sufficiently familiar with the subject matter and sources to deal with objections during the FTC/GTC process. If you nominate something you have worked on, note it as a self-nomination. Nominators who are not significant contributors to the articles of the topic should consult regular editors of the articles prior to nomination. Nominators are expected to respond positively to constructive criticism and to make an effort to address objections promptly.

The featured and good topics coordinators Aza24, MaranoFan and Kyle Peake determine the timing of the process for each nomination. For a nomination to be promoted to FT or GT status, consensus must be reached for a group to be promoted to featured or good topic status. If enough time passes without objections being resolved, nominations will be removed from the candidates topic and archived.

To contact the FGTC coordinators, please leave a message on the FGTC talk page, or use the {{@FGTC}} notification template elsewhere.

Nomination procedure

To create a new nomination use the form below (e.g., Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates/Saffron/archive1) and click the "Create new nomination" button.

Once the nomination page is created, remember to transclude it in the appropriate section below, to leave nomination templates on the talk pages of the articles nominated for the topic. For detailed instructions on how to nominate topics or add articles to existing topics, see Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates/Nomination procedure.

Supporting and objecting

Please review all the articles of the nominated topic with the featured and good topic criteria in mind before deciding to support or oppose a nomination.

To edit nominations in order to comment on them, you must click the "edit" link to the right of the article nomination on which you wish to comment (not the overall page's "edit this page" link).
If you approve of a nomination, write '''Support''' followed by your reasons. Supports that clearly evaluate the criteria will be weighted more than those that do not.
If you oppose a nomination, write '''Oppose''' or '''Object''' followed by the reason for your objection. Each objection must provide a specific rationale that can be addressed. If nothing can be done in principle to fix the source of the objection, the objection may be ignored.
- To withdraw an objection, strike it out (with <s>...</s>) rather than removing it.

For a topic to be promoted to featured or good topic status, consensus must be reached that it meets the criteria. The FGTC coordinators are usually the ones to assess this consensus and close FGTC discussions. If there is a consensus to promote, the promote instructions are located here. If enough time passes without objections being resolved (at least one week), nominations will be removed from the candidates list and archived. Nominations will stay here for ten days if there is unanimous consent, or longer if warranted by debate.

Line of Duty

Line of Duty is a British police procedural and serial drama created by Jed Mercurio for the British Broadcasting Corporation. The series revolves around Anti-Corruption Unit 12, a team of officers tasked with "policing the police". Over the course of the programme, AC-12 investigate a series of seemingly disparate cases; however, as the show progresses, they discover evidence that connects all their cases, and uncover deeply-rooted associations between the department's highly-ranked officers and organised crime. Line of Duty aired six series between 2012 and 2021, with the first three airing on BBC Two, and the latter three airing on BBC One. Since then, the fate of the show has remained unknown. The critically acclaimed programme has gained an international cult following. It has also won numerous awards and been nominated for several others, most notably in BAFTA TV and RTS categories.

- Yes, I was transparent above this in my nom with the "I'm currently planning a subtopic that would encompass the six series articles and is currently over halfway complete." I wasn't sure if any more detail was necessary here since those articles don't fall within the direct scope of this topic. For what it's worth though, series 5 is up to par and has already been nominated, it's just awaiting a GA review. Although series 6 has not been nominated, I've already put in extensive work on it and will be nominated once I finish the further expansion/clean-up I have planned for it.

@Idiosincrático, I would argue that the committee is not necessary for three reasons, one it is barely mentioned in the article, two it is about the participation in the Olympics, and three I do not think having two things have something is enough to be customary.

Then I'll Be Happy (EP)

Then I'll Be Happy is a collaborative extended play (EP) by the American musicians Glaive and Ericdoa, released on October 6, 2021, by Interscope Records and Listen to the Kids. After teasing collaborations with each other on social media, the best friends and frequent collaborators released two singles for the EP. The EP moves away from the hyperpop sound the duo was known for in the past, favoring a more traditional pop sound.

First Coast News

First Coast News is the newsroom of television stations WTLV (channel 12) and WJXX (channel 25), the NBC and ABC affiliates in Jacksonville, Florida, United States. It is owned with the stations by Tegna Inc. The First Coast News brand was first used by the stations on April 27, 2000, in the wake of Gannett's acquisition of WJXX the month before and consequent expansion of what had primarily been WTLV's news department.

The two stations share a common newsroom, which also has its own article (which in turn is partially transcluded back into their articles). This is a unique structure for US television articles, but it's one likely to be repeated in this very market if I do WFOX-TV + WJAX-TV + Action News Jax. WJXX was the first to become a GA in 2022, but it was not possible to write WTLV as a GA until last year due to newspaper availability restrictions. It was just promoted today. --Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 18:13, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm only linking Mobygames to show the reviews linked from it. In total, there is Gameplay magazine, Rock Paper Shotgun, Kotaku and Softonic. Even if one considers Softonic potentially unreliable, it still passes the WP:GNG threshold (the Kotaku article is from 2017, when the site was considered indisputably reliable). ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:49, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Doctor Who (2005–present)

Doctor Who is a British science fiction television show which began in 1963 and resumed airing in 2005, after having ceased broadcasting in 1989. The revived version of the show, though a continuation, made many changes from the original series, most notably longer episodes and more self-contained episodes, interspersed with occasional multi-part stories, structured into loose story arcs, instead of multi-episode serials of shorter length. 14 series and various specials have been broadcast as of February 2025, with another series close to broadcast.

Contributor(s): Alex 21, Chompy Ace, DoctorWhoFan91, Glimmer721, OlifanofmrTennant, TheDoctorWho

This topic is a comprehensive set of all of its series and quasi-series up till now, which together meet the criteria listed at WP:GT?.(~~Series 15 is at PR, but it's basically done, so I'll formally close it by tomorrow~~ edit-peer review done) They have similar layouts and are connected through, links, categories, and templates.

That would be correct, yes. En-dash is the correct usage for date ranges. -- Alex_21_TALK 09:45, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I meant that 20 article talk pages would have to be edited, so is there a faster way to do it than manually- if yeah, then the page can be moved at the same time. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 10:15, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

20 article talk pages were already edited, I'm sure it'll be a piece of cake, though the community can support you with such a heavy load. -- Alex_21_TALK 20:08, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

20 talk pages still use "2005-present", an incorrect usage of dashes. Do you intend to correct this? -- Alex_21_TALK 07:10, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If this passes, then the bot will add it with an en-dash; if it fails, it will get removed. Given that the redirect is working, I do not intend to do it. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 08:20, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What would be even more helpful would be waiting for someone else to also mention they have an issue with it, instead of leaving passive-aggressive edit summaries. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 06:49, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's not that it's an issue, it's that it's a standard Wikipedia MoS. -- Alex_21_TALK 07:46, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, go ahead and fix hyphens to en-dashes across the whole of wikipedia while you are at it. Why wait to change a re-direct, especially ones that will be replaced with a pass or fail soon enough. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 09:31, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, go ahead and fix hyphens to en-dashes across the whole of wikipedia while you are at it. There's bots that do that, how is that related to the issue at hand? -- Alex_21_TALK 20:21, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's related bcs you are editing 20 pages which are linking correctly via a redirect. And the 20 pages don't need to be changed with haste, bcs they are temporary until this passes or fails. You bring up MoS to say that those changes were needed-but we are not in article space, the pages were talk pages. I WP:IARed it for the time being, bcs only one editor brought it up at the moment. Maybe my mistake was not realising you would throw a temper tantrum once again, and leave 19 passive aggressive edit summaries. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 21:01, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
