Kept
editJohn Morrison and the Miz
editThe Bella Twins has been delisted after a GAR. I don't know anything about this topic, but seemingly these twins were connected in some in-universe story with the two wrestlers who are the subject of the topic. Oddly, the main article in the topic doesn't mention the twins once that I can see, so maybe they never needed to be in the topic at all? I don't feel competent to judge. Maybe the twins should just be removed from the topic, and the rest of it could stand without them; if not, then I guess the topic is now incomplete without that article and fails criterion 1(d). Anyone who knows more about this subject area care to weigh in? -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 14:07, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I am not familiar with this topic area but the original nominator stated The Bella Twins was included in this topic because they/were managers for John Morrison and the Miz (link). The article in question mostly has dead link issues, too much in-universe info according to the GAR nom, and lead issues so it could be possibly be salvable if an editor has the time. Whether or not it belongs in the topic, per the precedent at related professional wrestling topic teams at WP:GT, probably yes as they do include the manager within the topic. I have also pinged the professional wrestling wikiproject [1]. Spy-cicle💥 Talk? 00:53, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
- Remove per my above comment, article is no longer GA and appears to be needed for this topic. Spy-cicle💥 Talk? 17:07, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - The article used to include a mention of Nikki Bella as the team's manager. In July 2018, it was decided to remove the "In wrestling" section from articles, which had formerly included such information as managers and signature/finishing moves. People objected to the section as a "cruft magnet" that attracted unsourced information, so it was decided to remove the section entirely from every one of thousands of articles, even if it was properly cited. This came with an assurance that, of course, no information would be lost, as people would undoubtedly rewrite the information into prose sections. As you point out, this has not been done. I know this explanation doesn't solve the problem, but it might clear up part of the mystery. GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:40, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - The Bella Twins were managers of the tag team. Which is weird, since this information isn't included in prose in the article (also, they were part of a feud against The Colóns), but in the In wrestling section instead, that was deleted because many reasons, like high level of vandalism or being very hard to source. About the Bella Twins article itself, I tried to remove no notable stuff and in-universe information, but since I'm on the beach, I can't work with the sources. I asked to close it, imrpove the sources in September and open a GAN again.--HHH Pedrigree (talk) 07:29, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
- Keep – not only is the main article lacking any mentions of The Bella Twins, but I can confirm as a current viewer of WWE that their partnership with John Morrison and The Miz is not still in existence, therefore it was only temporary so does not need to be part of the topic. --K. Peake 20:55, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Kyle Peake: I think as current viewer of WWE, you can confirm that the partnership of John Morrison and The Miz has also ended (especially after Morrison’s release), therefore it was only temporary. So by your logic above we don’t need the topic at all. Armbrust The Homunculus 15:27, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- I can confirm that Morrison has since left WWE, but the comment was posted back when they were still active partners. Also, him and the Miz were a team throughout their joint time in the company, while the Bella Twins only joined temporarily so I logically believe this topic can do without them. --K. Peake 07:56, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - Hmm, it's an odd one - They did have a storyline where the two were involved with the Bella twins, but I'd hardly say it made them a part of this topic. As far as I remember it was around the end of 2008/start of 2009. The only time "Bella" appears in either John Morrison or The Miz is in Miz's article several years after they had ended their tag team (although they did reunite later). I'd suggest the three articles Miz, Morrison and the tag team article is the scope of the articles required. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 16:24, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Lee Vilenski: So one thing I cannot quite figure out. Were The Bella Twins at one point managers for John Morrison and the Miz? The sources that come up seem unreliable and am not familiar with the topic area sourcing to find out properly. If the answer is yes, then per the precedent laid out at related professional wrestling topic teams at WP:GT should be for them be included in this topic's scope (unless there is a noted exception like they were only manager for a very brief period?). If no, then probably not part of the topic's scope. Regards Spy-cicle💥 Talk? 20:32, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- The word "valet" is often used, but as I say, it was a reasonably short amount of time. I can't think it was all that notable. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 20:51, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

- Director comment - I am inclined to close but I want to be sure if the consensus would just have the Bella Twins removed from topic. GamerPro64 02:29, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Just remove the offending article that doesn't really belong in the topic anyway. Rreagan007 (talk) 02:45, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
Works for me. Closing the nomination as keep and removed The Bella Twins from the topic. GamerPro64 05:13, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
Tuvalu at the Olympics
editThe article Tuvalu at the 2020 Summer Olympics is not GA nominated yet over three months after the event and is even a stub, meaning this topic fails criterion 3.b. heavily. The 2020 Summer Olympics article that was originally missing has now passed as a GA and has no noticeable issues outside of a ref being used in the lead for info that should be sourced in the body, so I no longer believe this topic should be removed. --K. Peake 08:25, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
Remove: Definitely a necessary article for this topic. Hard to keep something like this up to date! -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 20:14, 29 November 2021 (UTC)- Kyle Peake, Bryanrutherford0, I've reworked the Tuvalu at the 2020 Summer Olympics article and nominated it for GA. AryKun (talk) 14:07, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
- In that case, the removal can hold off until the GAN is reviewed. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 15:16, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
- This was nominated for removal by me before any effort to rework the 2020 article had been put in, but I agree with the above that it should be on hold until we know the GAR's result. --K. Peake 09:56, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
- Kyle Peake, Bryanrutherford0, Tuvalu at the 2020 Summer Olympics has passed GA, so this topic can be kept now, I think. AryKun (talk) 14:18, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
- Looks great! Now, you should make a supplemental nomination to add the new article to the topic. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 00:37, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

Demoted
editBlood Harmony
edit"I Don't Miss You at All" recently failed a GAR, and without that single the topic fails criterion 1d (completion). -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 22:16, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
- Remove: per the above reasoning. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 10:08, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Nominating this topic for review due to failing criterion 3.b as Llámame (wrs song) is not at least a Good Article. GamerPro64 03:00, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Remove: Certainly needed to keep the topic up to date. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 03:17, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Remove as it’s past the retention period and the expansion one and a half month ago didn’t result in a GAN. Armbrust The Homunculus 10:48, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Animal (Kesha album)
editThe article Get Sleazy Tour, which has never been a GA and is part of the topic's scope, makes this topic no longer satisfactory for a good topic. Ippantekina (talk) 12:47, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- Remove: It does look to me like this topic should include this tour. Also, it looks like Dinosaur (Kesha song) was never actually added to the topic, though it seems clear that it does belong. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 18:44, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- Remove: per nom and comment above. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 15:43, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Thoughts on the Education of Daughters was demoted on 5 March 2022, and there is no effort to change that, and without it the topic fails criterion 3.b. (Original Stories from Real Life was also recently delisted.) Armbrust The Homunculus 18:46, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Remove: It certainly needs both of those articles, and I wonder whether it doesn't also need Memoirs of the Author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman? -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 00:55, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

Fails criterion 3.b as Stigma (luchador) is not a WP:GA, isn't being worked on, and is past the three month grace period (he won the title on 15 March). Armbrust The Homunculus 17:25, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

This topic is nominated for removal because the soundtrack single "Eyes on Me" is not at GA quality. This article didn't exist the last time the topic was reviewed, but now it seems like it probably needs to be here. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 13:48, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support removal, with regret. The song should be included within the scope of the game, per criterion 1(d). Hopefully there is someone who can take the song to GA. However, in the time being, there could be a narrower good topic, Characters of Final Fantasy VIII, with this as the lead article and the four notable characters as articles within the topic. I would support Characters of Final Fantasy VIII as a good topic. (It meets the criteria: well-defined scope, enough articles within it, quality GA or above. — Bilorv (talk) 22:30, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
- Support removal, per above. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 15:13, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Support removal per rationale, and also supporting Bilorv's proposal to nominate a narrower characters topic in its place. Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 20:11, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Armament of the Iowa-class battleship was demoted on 4 December 2021, there is no effort to change that, and without it the topic fails criterion 3.b. Armbrust The Homunculus 09:15, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Remove: There seems to have been some discussion of merging that article into the main article, and if that were decided upon, then the rest of the topic could stand, but as long as the consensus is in favor of keeping the armaments article, the topic is now incomplete. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 15:17, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Remove this article is clearly a significant one for the topic and looking at the revision history, it is very clear nobody has been working towards FA candidacy again. --K. Peake 10:03, 17 March 2022 (UTC)
- Remove per nom reasons. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 15:17, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

Saint Kitts and Nevis at the Olympics
editUnlike the previous removal candidacy for the GT, a required article in Saint Kitts and Nevis at the 2020 Summer Olympics is missing over two months after the event and is merely at start-class, definitely meaning this topic does not meet criterion 3.b. --K. Peake 21:24, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Remove: Definitely a necessary article for this topic. Hard to keep something like this up to date! -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 21:33, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Carnivàle
editThe article Characters of Carnivàle lost its featured article status a month ago, so the topic is no longer complete. RunningTiger123 (talk) 18:57, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
- Remove. Having a look at the issues raised at FAR, this has a long hill to climb to regain its status, far more than any realistic grace period could provide. ᵹʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 19:10, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
- Remove: Yes, it doesn't look like anyone is trying to restore the list to FL, and the topic falls without it. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 19:36, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
- Remove this list provides notable information about the topic, so its status being lost warrants demotion. --K. Peake 07:04, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Characters of Halo
editThe main article has been reclassified as a list, which resulted in its demotion from GA status (since lists can't be Good Articles), so, unless and until someone successfully runs it as a FL, the topic is now incomplete. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 12:25, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
- Remove. Fairly academic. Looks like David Fuchs is doing some work to tighten it up and if they wish to bring it to WP:FL I can withdraw this !vote pending assessment but as things stand it's clearly incomplete. ᵹʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 02:42, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
