Jane Severance[edit]
Jane Severance is an American author of children's literature and an educator. She has published three books for young readers, including her first work, When Megan Went Away (1979), the first children's picture book to include LGBT characters. Her works, all of which include lesbian characters, deal with parental separation (When Megan Went Away), non-nuclear communal parenting (Lots of Mommies, 1983), and parental alcoholism (Ghost Pains, 1992).

This proposed good topic covers the pioneering author Jane Severance and her two notable works. Her third book hasn't been written about in more than passing since its release in 1992, so at this point I don't believe it meets the WP:GNG. If it ever does receive greater coverage (or if Severance publishes any further works that do) then they would be suitable for addition to this topic. However, this topic currently encompasses a complete and coherent set of articles related to Severance and her work based on all available information on her.

- Support: It doesn't look like there's been much published commentary on "Ghost Pains"; I could only find one interview with the author in which that book was a minority of what was discussed. If any of her other works reach notability, it would need to be supplemented. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 01:38, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
- Support: All of proper status, and yeah if there is commentary on the other book then it would need to be included. Idiosincrático (talk) 03:34, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
- Support - From my search, I'd agree that Ghost Pains doesn't meet WP:GNG. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 21:46, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Blonde on Blonde[edit]
Blonde on Blonde is the seventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released as a double album on June 20, 1966, by Columbia Records. It has been consistently ranked high in critics' polls of the greatest albums of all time. Twelve years after its release, Dylan said: "The closest I ever got to the sound I hear in my mind was on individual bands in the Blonde on Blonde album. It's that thin, that wild mercury sound. It's metallic and bright gold, with whatever that conjures up."

The main album article is an FA, and all of the tracks are GAs. IMO, Bob Dylan World Tour 1966 is not required for the topic, as it predated the album's release. There are out-takes that have been released and have articles, but it looks like these are probably not required for a good topic list either. Thanks for any feedback.

- Support: Looks like the album and all the tracks at GA or better, and I'm not seeing any associated live materials or tour. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 13:55, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

- Bryan Rutherford: I think you changing that title to a piped wikilink will fix the bot when it runs next time. But don't forget the bot is triggered to run by a ping hidden in the promotion template. So you would also need to delete and then readd (and re-sign) the promotion template. The ping system looks for a fresh signature. Hope this helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:36, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

The 2020 article is now a GA so this can now become a Good Topic. ---- EN-Jungwon 10:52, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
