How to nominate:

1. First, nominate an article you find is worthy of Good status, putting it at the bottom of the list below.
2. Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is not good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organization, images, notability, sources).
3. Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
4. The article is placed on the Good article list and categorized as such.
5. Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 3 Bureau supports and no objections (or the objections have been stricken or overridden), it will be added to the queue, and will be officially known as a "Good article."

How to vote:

1. Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
2. Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
3. Please note that in order for your vote to count, you must have at least 50 mainspace edits.
   1. If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
4. As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors. Do not strike other users' objections; it is up to the objector to review the changes and strike if they are satisfied.
5. Once the article has at least three supporting Bureau votes and no outstanding objections after at least a week, the article will be added to the queue and be officially known as a "Good article." Non-Bureau members are also encouraged to review articles and participate in the process.

Also remember to add {{NomG}} at the top of the article you are nominating.

Good Status Nominations

Ezio Auditore da Firenze - Removal - Closed

Page has been revamped and will go up for FA. Has been agreed on by Teller and me. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 15:44, February 1, 2012 (UTC)

I had just looked over this Assassin's article which does not follow 2 of the requirements which are an important aspect to this wiki. It has been tagged with an improvement template which is the Revamp template which means is does not comply with the ACWiki manual of style. As said before, one of the most important aspects of the Wiki. I'm sure you would Nay it if it was just put up for voting and it had this template so I do not see why not if it's already GA status. The template was added by War himself. If you disagree feel free to disagree. Yay As Nominator --Teller Words, On my Screen :O 11:43, January 25, 2012 (UTC) It was pretty good when it was smaller. The sheer amount of information makes it pretty high-maintenance though, and the latter parts especially could use some work. =GuardDog 12:22, January 25, 2012 (UTC) Nay I have to say Nay for the removal. The article only has a good status and it's a mess due to Revelations information which wasn't formatted properly by the users who added. As I see it, it can be improved and promoted to featured, but does not require removal of it's current status.. --Vatsa (talk • Gentek) 12:41, January 25, 2012 (UTC) Comment Though it can be fixed, the Revelations plot was a large part of Ezio's story, it also includes the addition of Embers aswell as dead links and quotes that could've added. --Teller Words, On my Screen :O 12:43, January 25, 2012 (UTC) If no one else beats me to it, I will revamp the page today and tomorrow. I'll leave a message here when I (or someone else) is done, and we can check it over again. It's been way too long since I did something useful here anyway.. Nesty Contact me! 13:56, January 25, 2012 (UTC)

Ottomans - Yay

Eight days, five positive and no negative votes. Seems this one made it through. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 03:29, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

I nominate this article, my third apprentice task, for the status of GA, with permission from Nesty. I've expanded the article from its previous state, quite a bit actually. The trivia could have more points though. Well, I've done what I can and let's see if you people think it's good enough for GA. Any comments are welcome.--OdranoellutaTalk✲<choose><option>http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png</option></choose> 03:49, June 4, 2012 (UTC) Yay As the revamper/nominator.--OdranoellutaTalk✲<choose><option>http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png</option></choose> 03:49, June 4, 2012 (UTC) Should probably have said this somewhat sooner, but adding some relevant quotes to the sections might make the article of a higher standard. Nesty Contact me! 07:02, June 4, 2012 (UTC) I gave it a once over, fixed some mistakes and altered some sentences, and now I'm leaving my vote here. :) Slate Vesper 10:26, June 4, 2012 (UTC) Very informative, an easy read and an enjoyable read. Good job Odranoelluta! -- ► Kaloneous ◄ ♣HelpDesk♣ 12:52, June 4, 2012 (UTC) Easy to read, good sourcing. A job well done, Odra. Stormbeast The Helpful Place 02:33, June 10, 2012 (UTC) Nay Comments It may just be me, but there are some places that could use more commas. Stormbeast The Helpful Place 02:33, June 10, 2012 (UTC)

Israel Putnam - Yay

Has the required votes now that Sima has removed his Nay, and it's been a week. --NOSTALGIA ^TALK 05:10, January 21, 2013 (UTC)

Vote closed Click [show] to view the votes and comments.

I recently did a complete revamp of the article and expanded his biography and added more images and a brief trivia section. In addition, I reworded the article and made it sound more coherent. It could still use some more images, but I had Nesty and Slate look over it and they agreed with me that it's GA. --NOSTALGIA TALK 20:39, January 13, 2013 (UTC) Yay As nominator. --NOSTALGIA TALK 20:39, January 13, 2013 (UTC) Article is clean and complete, and seems to live up to Good standards. =GuardDog 00:56, January 14, 2013 (UTC) You must have me confused with someone else...Either way, it has my vote. Stormbeast ♉ The Helpful Place 01:17, January 14, 2013 (UTC) -- Nesty Contact me! 06:27, January 14, 2013 (UTC) ► Kaloneous ◄ ♣HelpDesk♣ 00:48, January 19, 2013 (UTC) Now it has my vote. -- Master Sima Yi Talk 22:43, January 20, 2013 (UTC) Not sure where you'd put these extra images other than the gallery, otherwise it's good. --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie 02:23, January 21, 2013 (UTC) Nay Comments Just an additional confirmation (though I suppose this should more be posed at Kal) is the concept art really of Putnam? I recall that image being on the DLC code for the Benedict Arnold missions. =GuardDog 00:56, January 14, 2013 (UTC) I wondered that myself. I have tried to confirm it but various other non-official sources listed him as Putnam. I haven't seen any Ubisoft sources confirming of refuting it though. :/ sorry. ► Kaloneous ◄ ♣HelpDesk♣ 03:55, January 14, 2013 (UTC) Then it might be better to remove it, just to be on the safe side. Nesty Contact me! 06:27, January 14, 2013 (UTC) Yes, it is indeed on the DLC code for the Benedict Arnold DLC. -- Master Sima Yi Talk 08:32, January 14, 2013 (UTC) Sima, I addressed the issues you mentioned, please look it over whenever you have time, and reconsider your vote. Nesty Contact me! 09:17, January 14, 2013 (UTC) Looks better, but still misses all background info from his database; only his direct involvement in the game is included right now. -- Master Sima Yi Talk 09:06, January 19, 2013 (UTC)

Haytham Kenway - Yay

Nice addition to the GA category. --NOSTALGIA ^TALK 04:31, March 25, 2013 (UTC)

Vote closed Click [show] to view the votes and comments.

As writer of nearly all of the information from in-game content, as well as a good other bit of the page, I feel that now it's ready. The information from Forsaken is there, and several images have been placed. I'm not entirely sure, but I think it could almost be FA as well with slightly more work. EmeraldCorruption (talk) 01:52, March 13, 2013 (UTC) Yay I like it, a great read, very informative and retains the impact of this character and his influence on the game (and series). ► Kaloneous ◄ ♣HelpDesk♣ 04:57, March 13, 2013 (UTC) Only the taco reference to his hat is missing, otherwise it's a good read.--OdranoellutaTalk✲<choose><option>http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png</option></choose> 05:35, March 13, 2013 (UTC) Did somebody say... taco hat? Jokes aside, it meets the criteria for GA, but not FA. Thumbs up from moi. ~ GI Auditore Comms Channel 07:21, March 13, 2013 (UTC) I might eventually get round to making this FA. Until then, good job. Nesty Contact me! 08:38, March 13, 2013 (UTC) Looks good, very thorough. Could use some more images, however.--NOSTALGIA TALK 23:02, March 16, 2013 (UTC) If I see "taco hat" like that ever again... I'll get George Bush to shoot me. But, until then, I think this article: bien.--Crimson Knight Intercom 23:09, March 16, 2013 (UTC) Crimson, you're such a hypocrite...considering your profile picture. On topic, it has my vote. Stormbeast ♉ The Helpful Place 01:50, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Wraghlabrghle. /sagenod --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie 02:05, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Yay from me. "Because I said so!"--ACsenior (talk) 08:33, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Yay -- IlMualim Wanna Chat? 15:46, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Nay Comments

Battle of Bunker Hill - Yay

Sorry for the delay, but it's a Yay. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 10:24, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

Spent a lot of time expanding, rearranging, added an infobox, etc. I think it's ready for GA now. -- IlMualim Wanna Chat? 23:28, March 16, 2013 (UTC) Yay Yay from me. Not much more to say--Fragment -Animus- 02:22, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Arr. ~ GI Auditore Comms Channel 07:22, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Looking good. Great work Il Mualim. ► Kaloneous ◄ ♣HelpDesk♣ 08:08, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Read it and it need a place at the top of the hill. Yay from me.--ACsenior (talk) 08:17, March 17, 2013 (UTC) C'est tres bien. Vous avez mon vote. Nesty Contact me! 09:30, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Now that there are images, I will vote for this. --Crimson Knight Intercom 14:53, March 17, 2013 (UTC) There we go. --NOSTALGIA TALK 15:38, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Nay Comments Add some images to the Battle and/or Aftermath sections and to the Gallery as well. Other than that, it looks good. --NOSTALGIA TALK 03:45, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Images have been added. Please take another look :) ~ GI Auditore Comms Channel 07:22, March 17, 2013 (UTC) Battle and event templates need to be overhauled. -- Master Sima Yi Talk 09:31, March 17, 2013 (UTC) It's been about two weeks now; verdict? ~ GI Auditore Comms Channel 09:59, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

Adéwalé -- Cancelled

Hey... I was strolling around his page and I found out it was good to read. Has sufficient photos, nice wording, references, etc. I think it is ready for the GA status. -- AgentG231 (talk) 01:39, April 1, 2014 (UTC)

Yay

1. As nominator. -- AgentG231 (talk) 01:39, April 1, 2014 (UTC)

Nay

1. As I already stated in the comments, it needs quite a bit of work. There are still a number of redlinks in the article, the lead quote isn't very inspired, images are lacking and not always very well placed, to just name a few things. Sorry, but for now, it's a no. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 12:08, April 1, 2014 (UTC)

Comments

1. Personally, I'd prefer a little more work be done to the article so it can become Featured, rather than Good. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 08:18, April 1, 2014 (UTC)
2. I'm actually of the same mind as Nesty; while Adéwalé's article is alright right now, I think there's still more than can be done. The sourcing for example, is all over the place. There's not a reference in sight when it comes to Black Flag, which is something that really should be fixed, in my opinion. Pictures that are in the gallery when they could be used to illustrate the main body are also an issue. We don't have screenshots of Freedom Cry either. I think the article as a whole still needs more work and might not even be eligible for "Good" status (but then, I have not participated in these before, so I don't quite know where the bar is for that status) at the moment.Crook ^{The Constantine District} 08:34, April 1, 2014 (UTC)
