Kept[edit]
Ipswich Town F.C.[edit]
Fails 3a (point 2) and 1d of the criteria as Ipswich Town F.C. Hall of Fame is not an FL and Ipswich Town F.C. Youth Academy is not a FA/GA. - Yellow Dingo (talk) 07:05, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Great, thanks. I'll work on the HoF, and the Academy page is now proposed for merging into the main topic page, it should not exist as a standalone article at this point. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:36, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Please note that since I already have a couple of candidates at FLC, I am prohibited from nominating any more, so as long as this removal candidate can remain open for a couple of months, I'm content to do the work to secure its inclusion. FLC is slow-going at this time so it's unlikely that I'll get much out of that process for a month. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:57, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah that seems fair enough. No need to rush a demotion. I might have a look at one of the FLCs to try and speed it up a bit. - Yellow Dingo (talk) 08:06, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Update academy page now reidrects to minor subsection of the main ITFC article. Work is progressing on the HoF article. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:42, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
- Update work still progressing on the HoF article, my other article at FLC has support so in a few days time I will be able to nominate this one, somewhat ahead of predicted schedules. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:17, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- Update the HoF list is now up at WP:FLC here. It could be up to two months before its review has concluded. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:33, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
- Update the HoF list is sitting with two supports and a concluded review. Looks like two months was a touch optimistic... The Rambling Man (talk) 07:33, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep Since Ipswich Town F.C. Hall of Fame is now FL, 3a (point 2) and 1d of the criteria is met. Nickag989talk 12:39, 19 November 2016 (UTC)
And with that, this review is closed to have the topic retain its status and add Ipswich Town F.C. Hall of Fame to the topic. - GamerPro64 01:17, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
Gwen Stefani albums[edit]
Since the article for her most recent album, This Is What the Truth Feels Like, failed its GAN recently, I am nominating this topic for failing to meet criterion 3.b and 1.d. GamerPro64 02:05, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- I will be working heavily on her newest album to bring it to GA–status within this week, but I've been really caught up with the GA Cup. Is there anyway you could allow me a little time to improve it? Thanks, Carbrera (talk) 02:31, 26 June 2016 (UTC).
- Sure. If you're able to improve and nominate it soon. If it fails its next GAN, this topic is going to be demoted. GamerPro64 02:36, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- Comment GamerPro64, the article is being heavily worked on as we speak, so it will be up for a nomination within the week, however, I will be out of country from July 8–21, and will have limited internet access. I just thought I'd give you a heads up. Thanks!! Carbrera (talk) 22:42, 1 July 2016 (UTC).
Demote unless the new album can become GA, though I doubt that'll happen anytime soon given how many problems I saw with it while reviewing its GAN. Snuggums (talk / edits) 02:39, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep for now. I see nothing wrong with waiting until the end of July when Carbrera is back editing, and will try to improve the new article. Mattximus (talk) 02:10, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
- Comment The article will be nominated for GA review within the week. Thanks to you all for cooperating and being patient. Carbrera (talk) 03:33, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- @GamerPro64: The article was recently reviewed by a different Wikipedia user who passed it today, August 3rd. Since now all five of her albums are GA quality or higher, I believe this discussion can now close since all articles meet criteria 3b and 1d. Thanks. Carbrera (talk) 03:47, 3 August 2016 (UTC).
- All right. I can close this discussion and add "This Is What the Truth Feels Like" to the topic. GamerPro64 13:28, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
Slayer discography[edit]
.jpg)
I am nominating this topic for removal as it has passed its retention period for Repentless, which has not achieved at least GA status three months after the album's release, so the topic is no longer complete, thus failing criteria 1(d). GamerPro64 19:51, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment Repentless looks in good condition, so I've nominated it at GAN. But it could still be a while... The Rambling Man (talk) 11:56, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment It's been reviewed, updated and is awaiting sentencing. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:54, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- Comment GamerPro64 Repentless is now GA so I guess you can close this. The Rambling Man (talk) 12:46, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- Closed to have the topic retain its status and add Repentless to the topic. - GamerPro64 13:31, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
Demoted[edit]
Para-skiing classification[edit]
This topic was promoted in this form. On November 4, Fram performed this edit removing 13 articles that were delisted from GA status. If those 13 articles were thought to be in the topic when promoted, I don't see how this topic is complete and it therefore is not compliant with the criteria, specifically 3. (b) (ii). I know there is normally a grace period, but with 13 articles not up to standard, I don't think it is required. Note that two of the three current articles are also GARs. — Yellow Dingo (talk) 05:10, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
- Sounds reasonable to me. We need to get someone assigned to re-submit the articles. I'll raise the issue in Perth. Hawkeye7 (talk) 06:37, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
- Director comment - If a topic loses Good Articles they're not supposed to be removed from the topic unless the article was deleted or merged into another article. I restored the topic to normal with obvious icon differences. GamerPro64 14:45, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
- The lead article and the other article that had been on the same GAR have both been delisted as GAs today. I have updated the topic accordingly. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:12, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- Delist - pretty clear, almost all were demoted. Mattximus (talk) 00:01, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
- Delist: Almost all of the articles were demoted so it should be delisted. Aoba47 (talk) 20:09, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
- Closed with consensus to have the topic Delisted. - GamerPro64 21:32, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
National Hockey League awards[edit]
Mark Messier Leadership Award, after having ten recipients of the award now, has not been nominated at FLC. And with the three month grace period being up I think that this topic should be demoted based on criterion 3.a. GamerPro64 16:50, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
- Its been over a month and no one has commented on this. Closed with consensus to have the topic Delisted. - GamerPro64 02:10, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
Gillingham F.C.[edit]
Fails 1d and 3a (point 2) of the criteria as List of Gillingham F.C. players (1–24 appearances) isn't a FL and List of Gillingham F.C. players (25–49 appearances) isn't an FL (although it is a FLC). - Yellow Dingo (talk) 11:43, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- What's the timescale for this? As noted, the 25-49 list is currently at FLC. The 1-24 list doesn't need much work to the list itself, but has a large number of redlinked entries. I'm not up to date with what the rules are on proportions of redlinks in a FL..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:52, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- @ChrisTheDude: Ultimately it is up to the coordinators but If there is obvious activity I don't see why this couldn't stay open for a couple of months. - Yellow Dingo (talk) 11:54, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- OK, well as noted the 25-49 list is already at FLC and I see no reason why it shouldn't pass (it's already had one support). I'll start blitzing through creating the articles on the redlinked players so that the 1-24 list is ready to go straight to FLC as soon as the other one closes (or gains significant support)........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:20, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- Just as an update, the 25-49 list is going well at FLC, and the 1-24 list should be able to head there next week with a bit of luck......... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:05, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- ......and now the other one is at FLC too -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:52, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- Just as an update, the 25-49 list is going well at FLC, and the 1-24 list should be able to head there next week with a bit of luck......... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:05, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- OK, well as noted the 25-49 list is already at FLC and I see no reason why it shouldn't pass (it's already had one support). I'll start blitzing through creating the articles on the redlinked players so that the 1-24 list is ready to go straight to FLC as soon as the other one closes (or gains significant support)........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:20, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

- Update The 1-24 list has failed at FLC, so I guess the topic now can't be saved..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:16, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
- With the 1-24 list failing FLC, this topic will be delisted. The topic can always come back to FTC once everything is back in order. GamerPro64 14:28, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
Road to ... (Family Guy)[edit]
Fails 1d and 3b of the criteria as Road to India isn't a GA. Nickag989talk 22:00, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
- Unless that article can become FA or GA, I say demote this topic Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:29, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
- Demote unless Road to India (Family Guy) is promoted to GA/FA. Without this article the topic is incomplete. Armbrust The Homunculus 12:31, 3 September 2016 (UTC)
- Demote - Road to India is not even a GA nominee yet. MPJ-DK 21:32, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- Demote clearly fails WP:WIAGT due to the missing article. - Yellow Dingo (talk) 07:40, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
- Demote as clearly failing the criteria because of the missing GA article. Cartoon network freak (talk) 15:23, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Closed with consensus to have the topic Delisted. - GamerPro64 16:52, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
Beyoncé studio albums[edit]
The retention period for Lemonade (Beyoncé album) has come and gone so this topic fails to meet criterion 3.b and 1.d. GamerPro64 21:24, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- Demote UNLESS the Lemonade album page can be promoted to FA/GA. Snuggums (talk / edits) 23:18, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
- Demote for the reasons stated above. Since the retention period for Lemonade (Beyoncé album) has passed, this topic unfortunately must be demoted. Aoba47 (talk) 04:00, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
- Closed with consensus to have the topic Delisted. - GamerPro64 14:50, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
James Bond films[edit]
I am nominating this topic for removal as it has passed its retention period for Spectre (2015 film), which has not achieved at least GA status more than three months after its release, so the topic is no longer complete, thus failing criteria 1(d). GamerPro64 16:00, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
Comment: The article in question is currently at GAN. ツ FrB.TG (talk) 19:48, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- Demote unless the Spectre article passes its GAN. Snuggums (talk / edits) 02:29, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Just wait, even if the review is taking a while to start. igordebraga ≠ 01:38, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- Remove (regretfully) The topic is incomplete, and the GAN nomination for Spectre (2015 film) became stale a month ago. Armbrust The Homunculus 17:26, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
- Director comment - While there is consensus to demote this topic, the GAN is still going on, albeit stale. Once the nomination is done with, then we can decide the fate of the topic. GamerPro64 01:26, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delist – I know that the GAN is going on, but seeing the number of issues present, the GAN will hardly pass as noted by SchroCat in the review. Using sources like Twitter also does not help its case. —IB [ Poke ] 14:20, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delist The GAN should have been shelved some time ago. The article should not have been nominated as it stood, and the nom has dragged on for too long. Until the article is given a thorough copyedit throughout, it should not pass, which will mean this drops of the edge too. - SchroCat (talk) 14:33, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- So with The GAN failing and the multiple Delist votes, this nomination will be closed with consensus to have the topic Delisted. - GamerPro64 20:10, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
Kanye West studio albums[edit]
I am nominating this topic for removal as it has passed its retention period for The Life of Pablo, which has not achieved at least GA status three months after its release, so the topic is no longer complete, thus failing criterion 1(d) and 3(b). GamerPro64 01:19, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
- Remove: It's been given enough time and the new album isn't even GA nominated yet. '''tAD''' (talk) 07:27, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- Remove per nom, incomplete topic. Armbrust The Homunculus 17:22, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
- Remove it's been over a month since this nomination was initiated and it still isn't a GA Snuggums (talk / edits) 19:48, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
- Closed with consensus to have the topic Delisted. - GamerPro64 01:15, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
