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

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.

  • 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.

Billboard number-one country songs (4th supplementary nomination)

edit

This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Billboard number-one country songs for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:

  1. List of Billboard number-one country songs of 2024

Adding this year's list, which has just made FL, to the topic (which nicely balances out the columns once again  )..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:31, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The history of the National Hockey League begins with the end of its predecessor league, the National Hockey Association (NHA), in 1917. After unsuccessfully attempting to resolve disputes with Eddie Livingstone, owner of the Toronto Blueshirts, executives of the three other NHA franchises suspended the NHA, and formed the National Hockey League (NHL), replacing the Livingstone team with a temporary team in Toronto, the Arenas. The NHL's first quarter-century saw the league compete against two rival major leagues—the Pacific Coast Hockey Association and Western Canada Hockey League—for players and the Stanley Cup. The NHL first expanded into the United States in 1924 with the founding of the Boston Bruins, and by 1926 consisted of ten teams in Ontario, Quebec, the Great Lakes region, and the Northeastern United States. At the same time, the NHL emerged as the only major league and the sole competitor for the Stanley Cup; in 1947, the NHL completed a deal with the Stanley Cup trustees to gain full control of the Cup. The NHL's footprint spread across Canada as Foster Hewitt's radio broadcasts were heard coast-to-coast starting in 1933.

Good topic nominations

Loud is the fifth studio album by Barbadian singer Rihanna. It was released on November 12, 2010, by Def Jam Recordings and SRP Records. The album was recorded between February and August 2010, during the singer's Last Girl on Earth tour (2010–2011) and the filming of her first feature film Battleship (2012).

Meets all of the criteria.

The tornado outbreak of May 4–6, 2007 was a devastating tornado outbreak that took place in Kansas, resulting in the deaths of thirteen people. Eleven of these deaths alone came from the 2007 Greensburg tornado, a massive EF5 tornado and the first in the United States to be rated as such. The tornado leveled Greensburg, leaving 95% of the town damaged.

Contributor(s): EF5, Cyclonebiskit, CrazyC83

Meets all criteria, this may very well be the first tornado-related GTN on Wikipedia. Image is an FP aswell. --EF5 13:41, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Queen of Hearts: GA passed. Do you still support/oppose? EF5 16:31, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mana series (3rd supplementary nomination)

edit

This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Mana series for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:

  1. Visions of Mana


Contributor(s): ProtoDrake, PresN

PresN created the Mana series topic in 2015, and believed it completed, but over the years it has been added to twice. Now, the latest series entry Visions of Mana has released and I managed to get the article through the GAN process within the three month limit, so it can be added to this topic. I didn't think I'd be so enthused about this game, but I have been, and I'll be more than happy if it can join its fellows in this topic. Also pinging @Judgesurreal777 and IDV: as they contributed to the first supplementary nomination with their work on Adventure of Mana. To those who weigh in on this nomination, thank you. --ProtoDrake (talk) 11:38, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hold until Echoes of Mana becomes GA TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 20:32, 12 November 2024 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE— jlwoodwa (talk) 03:22, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Again, support promotion- Echoes, having just been created, has 3 months to be promoted, and Zxcvbnm isn't showing much haste in working on it. This nomination should be closed as successful, and we can reconvene in February to either add Echoes or start an FLCR. --PresN 03:30, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. Agree with PresN. I'm satisfied that the added content in the Secret of Mana article on the remake is sufficient. We can revisit in 3-6 months on the progress of Echoes, and either merge it back or start a FLCR. (Although in the name of saving buearucracy, just merge it back if it's not that close to GA-able.). SnowFire (talk) 22:02, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I can understand revisiting it months from now, but merging it back would be blatantly violating WP:WIAFT where it states "A topic must not cherry-pick only the best articles to become featured together." Merging something that nobody would have thought twice about being an article if it wasn't preventing a Good Topic is blatant cherry-picking.
    Honestly the page is probably GA-ready already, so if anyone wants to try reviewing it or state what remains to be done before it can be a GA, let me know. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 15:07, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    At a glance the development section is practically non-existant. Everything under it is just release info. The reception section while good at a glance inst great if you really dig in. I'm hesitant to say weather this would survive an AFD. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 06:56, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It would easily survive an AfD, even without much development info it got SIGCOV in Nintendo World Report, RPGFan, The Escapist, and Siliconera. I did notice an interview about the game I missed, so Development should be getting bulked up a bit shortly. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 12:38, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Leaving aside the ADF surviving assertion, there are about two thirds interviews by volume in the sources left on that article's talk page that I dug up and left about/on the main topic page in case someone wanted to create the article. So if someone actually wanted to, they could turn that article into something sound. --ProtoDrake (talk) 14:02, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The 2023–24 College Football Playoff was a single-elimination postseason tournament that determined the national champion of the 2023 NCAA Division I FBS football season. It was the tenth edition of the College Football Playoff and involved the top four teams in the country as ranked by the College Football Playoff poll. The playoff consisted of two semifinal games, played at the Sugar Bowl and the Rose Bowl, with the winners of each advancing to the national championship game. Each participating team was the champion of its respective conference: No. 1 Michigan from the Big Ten Conference, No. 2 Washington from the Pac-12 Conference, No. 3 Texas from the Big 12 Conference, and No. 4 Alabama from the Southeastern Conference. Michigan and Washington won their respective semifinal games and Michigan won the national championship game, 34–13, to secure their first outright national championship since 1948.

I've been working on this on-and-off since the championship game in January and I'm very pleased to have all four articles now at GA status. This is a good topic nomination and my first GT/FT nomination. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 23:53, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Topic removal candidates

edit

Guitar Hero was demoted on 31 July 2024, there is no effort to change that, and without it the topic fails criterion 3.b. Armbrust The Homunculus 09:09, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delist – real shame this, hopefully someone works on the lead article soon. Idiosincrático (talk) 09:54, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm concerned that the GH article was delisted with no comments, and given I was the one that progressed it and the topic through GA and FL, got no notification of it (I have a huge watchlist so that could easily fall through). I'm not disagreeing with the issues about the article's problems but they were all readily fixable if I had been notified. --Masem (t) 13:49, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails criterion 3.b as UEFA Euro 2024 final is not a WP:GA, isn't being worked on, and is past the three month grace period (the match was played on 14 July). Armbrust The Homunculus 09:00, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Aston Villa F.C.

edit

The topic no longer meets featured topic criterion 3, since Aston Villa F.C. was delisted in July. It's been four months since then, and the article hasn't been nominated for GA. jlwoodwa (talk) 18:31, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails criterion 3.b as San Marino in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 is not a WP:GA, isn't being worked on, and is past the three month grace period (the Eurovision Song Contest ended on 11 May). Armbrust The Homunculus 09:58, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hold until GAN review is complete TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 20:33, 12 November 2024 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE— jlwoodwa (talk) 21:37, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
