Love. Angel. Music. Baby.[edit]

Procedural nomination; it used to be a Featured Topic until it was demoted in 2010. I noticed that Cool, the reason why it was demoted, became a Good Article back in November and is now nominating it. GamerPro64 18:52, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, the topic should get its own book. Also, several article are crippled with deadlinks. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 20:21, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Harajuku Lovers Tour 2005 Crystal Clear x3 11:23, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The Rich Girl article should not be an FA, there are lots of cases of WP:OR in multiple sections and there are mistakes in the references, thus it shouldn't become an FA topic. Calvin NaNaNaC'mon! 17:15, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Oppose I'm concerned with the Original Research in Holla and Rich, particularly in the music and lyrics section where there are analyses of the sheet music itself. FA before was not that strict, unlike today. --Efe (talk) 04:01, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - I'm sorry but all these "FA" articles violate GA criteria let alone FA. NFCC issues, OR issues, LEAD issues, MOS issues in abundance. I think a reassessment of each is needed. - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 06:11, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of Masan[edit]

Contributor(s): Ed!

Good Topic nomination. A battle in the Korean War with three sub-battle articles contained therein. It's a self-contained narrative of a three-front engagement between UN and North Korean troops. --—Ed!(talk) 18:17, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article references two other battles. The Great Naktong Offensive (Start-Class) and the Battle of Inchon (C-Class). Why are these not included in the topic? Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 23:26, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The topic features the battle around Masan, which took place in three adjacent axes; Battle Mountain, Haman and Nam River. Chronologically speaking Inchon took place after these battles and in a different area, and is generally considered to be the beginning of a different phase of the war. As for the Great Naktong Offensive, true it was an offensive of which two of the battles were a part, but the Pusan Perimeter was two months and comprised about 18 articles. I do plan on expanding this topic to include more eventually, but as for now, this just concerns what happened around Masan; those two articles aren't significant in that regard. —Ed!(talk) 02:12, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This topic needs more input big time. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 03:43, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well for what it's worth, I tend to agree with Ed HurricaneHink. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 05:32, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I agree with Ed's justification. --PresN 04:40, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Closed with no consensus to promote. Too many users concerned about the other battles not being included despite above notes. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 12:13, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
