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. You may want to check previous archived nominations first: |

Nomination procedure[edit]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[edit]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.
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. | |

Since joining the National Football League in 1921, over 1,800 players have played at least one regular season or playoff game for the Green Bay Packers. Many of the players were acquired through the NFL draft, with others being signed as free agents. Many Packers players have been recognized by the NFL, by the team itself and by news agencies for their on-field performance, which includes setting numerous NFL and team records. Packers players have helped the team become one of the most successful in NFL history.

[edit]Yeezus is the sixth studio album by American rapper Kanye West. The album took an experimental route on its release in 2013, incorporating an array of genres that included industrial, electro, and punk. Despite a divided public response, the album was widely acclaimed by critics and also topped the charts of seven countries worldwide. "Black Skinhead" and "Bound 2" were released as the two singles in 2013, both of which received music videos. Numerous album tracks were also promoted such as "On Sight" and "New Slaves", while West also embarked on The Yeezus Tour across North America, Europe, and Australia from 2013 to 2014.

Although the album and "Bound 2" were brought to GA status by STATicVapor years back, I have slowly but gradually worked on the other songs and tour to get them into this same status. This began with "Black Skinhead" as long ago as 2019 and the other album tracks were promoted over time, completed by the last nominee of the tour this very year of 2025! --K.

The 1956 World Professional Match-play Championship was a professional snooker tournament held from 9 January to 10 March 1956, with the final at the Tower Circus in Blackpool, England. It was the 1956 edition of the World Snooker Championship, first held in 1927. There were four participants. Fred Davis won his eighth and last world snooker title by defeating John Pulman 38–35 in the 73-frame final.
The topic includes all four players who participated in the Tournament. I don't think that there is any article missing. It would be a subtopic of World Professional Match-play Championship. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 11:23, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

Graduation is the third studio album by American rapper Kanye West. The album became a large commercial success, reaching number one in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. The impact was not left unnoticed as it was later certified seven-tuple platinum in the US, becoming an influential album across mainstream hip hop at large! The accompanying singles were released from 2007 until 2008 and brought much chart success for West, particularly one of his biggest hits "Stronger". Numerous album tracks also received significant attention, while West trekked across the world on the album's Glow in the Dark Tour.

The fourteenth series of the British science fiction television programme Doctor Who premiered on 11 May 2024, and aired through to 22 June. The marketing for the series refers to it as "Season One", following the production changes and the acquisition of Doctor Who's international broadcasting rights by Disney+. It is the fifth series led by Russell T Davies as head writer and executive producer and the first since his return to the show, having previously worked on it from 2005 to 2010. This series is the fourteenth to air since the programme's revival in 2005, and the fortieth season overall. The fourteenth series was announced with Davies' return for its 60th anniversary in 2023 and beyond, with Bad Wolf becoming a co-producer.

Over the last few months, myself, along with OlifanofmrTennant have improved this small series of articles to bring them up to GA standard. While a short topic, it comprehensively covers an overview of the specials as well as a more in-detail look at the three specials in their respective episode articles. Therefore, I believe this would make a great addition to Wikipedia's good topics. --TheDoctorWho (talk) 16:23, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

Parachutes
[edit]
I really hate to be *that person* (especially since I don't really linger around the Topics space too much), but I regrettably don't think that this qualifies as being a Good Topic anymore due to the creation of pages for "Sparks" and the Parachutes Tour, the former having been created almost one year ago and the latter having been created almost two years back. While both articles have seen relatively consistent and recent editing by User:GustavoCza (who has also created the articles in question), neither seem like they are currently in any shape to be nominated for GA, and in any case it seems to be well beyond the three month grace period allotted for in WP:GTCRITERIA.
