Looks like it meets all criteria and recommendations on WP:WIAGT. --Starstriker7(Talk) 02:19, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It has been resolved. --Starstriker7(Talk) 03:43, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Spooks (series 7)

[edit]

I am nominating this for a Good Topic because I believe it is worthy for inclusion. I have worked on it for about a month or so and the GANs went by quickly thanks to the backlog elimination drive. -- Matthew RD 16:09, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Why are these five episodes more notable than the other three? Nergaal (talk) 19:28, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    Because I can't find anything notable (GA worthy) for the other three, so I find it pointless to create articles on them. I thought that just because only a handful of articles exist, like Supernatural (season 1), it shouldn't fail. -- Matthew RD 19:56, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    It is just a bit weird that 5 of the 8 are notable and not the others. Most of the other examples have 2 or 3 episodes out of something like 10. Over half being notable is a bit towards all of them being notable. Nergaal (talk) 01:17, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: Having reviewed several of the above episodes, I don't see a problem with having an incomplete season as a featured topic (so long as the remaining episodes remain redirects). However, it would be nice for those 3 remaining episodes to be expanded into good articles eventually. As the above articles are well-written and interesting to read (considering I've never watched the show), I'll give it my support. Ruby2010 talk 04:37, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I am not convinced that a season can have 5 notable episodes, and 3 non-notable ones. Nergaal (talk) 18:57, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • How can I convince you? Should I add production and reception sections on the three missing episodes on the series talk page to show you how little there is? I said before, the other are not notable because there I could find barely anything on the other three, mabe the odd reviews, but not nearly enough production. For example, for "A Chance for Peace", the only production I could find is the writing anf directing credits, and mention the return of a character from the third series. It's also the only episode in the series not to have a review from TV Scoop(No review marked "TV Review: Spooks, BBC One, Monday 10 November, 9pm"), so reception section is also very limited. That's it. Is that enough to warrant a good article? No. I'm sorry you feel that way, but I say again, there are episodes that are non-notable. -- Matthew RD 13:12, 12 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These appear to fulfill all criteria at WP:GT?. --Starstriker7(Talk) 05:16, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kepler-9d is the closest of the planets to Kepler-9. It's listed as 'd' because it was discovered only after 9b and 9c were. Nstock (talk) 19:48, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

They are listed just below yours at Wikipedia:Good_topics#Physics_and_astronomy. Nergaal (talk) 23:29, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you've seen this before. But at least now it's a topic without gaps (all games are here, Good or Featured, with the featured list of media as a main article), or discordance in its nomination. --igordebraga 00:04, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As is, there are not enough articles of featured quality for this to pass as featured. Definitely Support good topic, however. There are nine good articles and four featured articles, putting the number of featured articles as 1/3 of the total number of articles, below the threshold of 1/2. We would need to promote three articles to featured quality to adhere to the FA topic criteria. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler!

Personally I think some sort of division between the main series and the Prime series should be made. I've given it a shot. Feel free to revert/tweak/whatever. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 02:55, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
