This page lists all the previous nominations for Featured status. Every article nominations listed here have been concluded, and transferred here for reviewing purposes only.

Hunt on Cyprus/Removal - Removed

Featured status removed as per request.. --Vatsa (talk • Gentek) 15:39, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Another look at the page made me realized how messed up it was, even before it passed FA status. Overly long paragraphs (some paragraphs contain unnecessary info), messy formatting of pictures, unorganized sectioning, improper/informal wording. I'll do a revamp of the page some time in the future but, for now, I say its status be removed. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 09:05, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Remove

Yeah, sue me for nominating it before. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 09:05, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

I see what you mean about the wording. Not difficult to fix, just lengthy and tedious. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 09:53, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yay. For me some parts are not phrased very well and in some sections there is bad formatting. Romeh ^{Speak now} 16:14, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Could indeed do with quite a bit more work. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 20:29, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

As Blaidd and Rome have said, the wording needs improvement and formatting work. Nostalgia ^{Let's talk.} 03:34, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

Keep

Comments

Daniel Cross & Hannah Mueller/Removal - Keep

With the majority voting to keep and the discussion dead.. --Vatsa (talk • Gentek) 15:39, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Vote closed

Look, I let it slide with Daniel Cross because the article was well written and I thought someone might add the mandatory Personality and Traits section soon after it was nominated, but now I see Hannah Mueller on the main page and I have to question some of the Staffs' thought processes at the time they saw these articles on this list. Neither of these articles have the mandatory Personality and Traits section, and Hannah Mueller is badly written at best. Honestly, even if somebody now writes a P&T section for both these articles, they still need to go through the entire process again and be looked at with a fresh set of eyes.

Remove

As nominator. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 20:11, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Keep

Keep. Romeh ^{Speak now} 20:14, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Like many others, I feel the personality/appearance/traits section to be lacking in value. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 20:25, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

No. -- Master Sima Yi 08:39, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Nein. We've actually rectified the rules for nomination (both GA and FA) so that it won't require all pre-requisites. This was done after a rather...unique, group discussion, and have all agreed to the new rule changes. Have a look at the rules again and see for yourself. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 08:53, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

I actually think a Personality and characteristics section would make these two articles better, but if everyone is content with leaving them out seeing as it's no longer a rule, then I think the pages are good enough as they are. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 09:10, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Both pages are good as they are now, though in the future both could use a personality and characteristics section. Nostalgia ^{Let's talk.} 03:36, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I was there for the entire discussion about the personality section, and while it may be required by the rules, it doesn't add much to the article that alredy is there. Subject 12 ^{Talk to me} 04:46, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

The article (both of them) have good wording and look good with quotes, pictures ect... they changed the rules. So I'd say keep it the way it is. Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 05:51, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

Comments

Both Cello and I agreed that the Personality and characteristics are not mandatory, in the case that the overall article is worthy enough to be kept Featured status, and all the staff are aware of this. Your criteria is, therefore, redundant. -- Master Sima Yi 20:15, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Eight at the top of this page, in big bold letters it says "An article must ...include a "personality and characteristics" section on all character articles." it's one of the rules, as set out since this page first came into existence; It doesn't matter what you and Cello think. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 20:57, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

I know it says that. Otherwise my comment would've been redundant. And it doesn't matter what Cello and I think? Nice. I'm pretty sure that us staff have written the rules, and therefore we are also the ones who can bend them. Do not hide behind set rules all the time. -- Master Sima Yi 08:41, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

If you have problems with the new rule changes, tell it to the judge. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 08:56, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

It's still there. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 11:44, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Re-read my first comment thoroughly. -- Master Sima Yi 13:25, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

And another thing, don't treat these rules like it's the Ten Commandments or something. God didn't write them, people on this wiki did. We staff can adjust them for the betterment of the wiki. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 14:41, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Sima: Re-read my response to that comment carefully. Rules are rules for a reason, and why you lot are simply trying to avoid improving the articles so they actually meet the requirements that had been previously agreed rather than try and argue with me, is beyond me. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 18:48, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Rodrigo Borgia - Yay

Ba-dum-tss. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 08:02, December 27, 2011 (UTC)

As part of my apprenticeship, I have to get Rodrigo Borgia to FA. The page was already in quite a good shape, but I did quite a bit of rewording and some lay-out work. Personally, I think it is good enough as it is now. If you disagree, let me know why and I'll see to it your comments are adressed.Nesty ^{Contact me!} 10:30, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Yay

Revamper/nominator Nesty ^{Contact me!} 10:30, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Terrible, absolutely terrib-- oh damn. I've typed this in the Yay section... Oh well, I can't be fucked fixing it. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 03:58, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

So what, you've worked it up to an FA standard, what do you want? A userbox? Wait... do you? --Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 04:26, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

-- Master Sima Yi 09:14, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

--Seems Legit Subject 12 ^{Talk to me} 13:15, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

I have expanded and revamped the entire page, replacing images and quotes, and doing a large amount of rewording. I've consulted with Istruttore GuardDog and Istruttore TheSt0ryTeller, both of whom agree that it is of FA quality, after providing me with some suggestions. Nostalgia AC ^{Let's talk.} 14:31, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Yay

As nominator and revamper. Nostalgia AC ^{Let's talk.} 14:31, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

-- Master Sima Yi 09:14, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

All my comments have been covered. =GuardDog 11:37, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

I was misquoted! D: What? I did say that? Why was I not informed? Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 12:45, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

It was severely lacking some information on the escape, so I added that. Though I didn't know the proper name for that door on the floor thing, or those mechanisms which held the gate shut, so I just used some generic words for them. I also removed the second paragraph of the Aftermath section, it went into too much detail and was unnecessary. Other than that, the page was written very well, so it's all good now. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 03:35, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

Anything they can do, I can do better... faster too. --Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 04:26, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

And another one. Sima likes to keep me busy, apparently... Anyway, did some major rewording, moved some images around, created a gallery, added quotes. I think it's ready, if you don't agree, let me know and I'll make it better. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 18:51, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

We really need a new infobox image. But I fear the chances of getting one is slim. So, I guess it's set to go. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 07:39, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

I might want to change a few things myself... tomorrow, so I will get back to this later. -- Master Sima Yi 23:41, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

As for the infobox image, I asked Jpulowski (The guy that provided the image for all Templar Agents and a few others) if he could find something. He hasn't replied yet. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 12:50, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

Also known as "Al Mualim". He was already GA, and I think I improved the page massively (if I may say so myself). I removed the random quotes, moved the images around, reworded the entire page, fixed the final words section, etc. etc. Not good enough? Let me know and I'll improve it.

Not trying to be a pain here, but keep in mind that an FA article needs to be understandable for all our users. An articles quality is not determined by the amount of "difficult" words in it. Reword it a bit more and I'll change my vote. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 04:37, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

Comments

Pre-event details are a bit lengthy; it might actually be better to shorten or skip Shadowing. The opening section could use a mention of the aftermath, and its last two paragraphs about Suleiman might be better suited for the body, rather than the opening. But otherwise, information seems complete and flows well, will vote after changes. =GuardDog 09:36, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

I've done some work based off of your comments, which I hope should change your vote; if you still believe it needs work, however, then I understand as well. Nostalgia AC ^{Let's talk.} 20:24, January 10, 2012 (UTC)
