  • As one of the two foremost poets of the language spoken by more people than any other on earth, Li Bai deserves a collaboration in his own right. Yet this nomination is also a polite gesture to the government of his homeland: in keeping with Wikimedia Foundation's practice of emphasizing the advantages of open Wikipedia access, support of this nomination demonstrates that people in the rest of the world are interested in Chinese culture and would be delighted if the people of mainland China were free to help us improve our understanding.

  • Critical topic for an encyclopedia, yet it has no references and has stylistic issues. Has been rated "A-class" supposedly, but I don't see how it passes that. Failed a GA nom. Keitei (talk) 01:54, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
  • An embarrassment. --Dweller 13:01, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
  • The tone veers into the unencyclopedic, the introduction is hopeless, the layout is confusing, weasel words everywhere, minimal references etc. Mark this one as urgent.--Nydas(Talk) 14:58, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I did the last big overhaul, so most of you insults are to me, (although if you think its bad now you should have seen it in summer). But I have no time to do anything. Dark Kubrick gave a lot of detailed suggestions for improvement when it failed GA in August and nobody has taken the time to implement them. If you think its unencyclopedic or embarrassing, please help to improve it, and defend any improvement from erosion for months to come. Oh and it does have references, its just that no one has updated them from the old style to the newer in-line footnotes. ... Bmorton3 20:35, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

  • I hate her music. Really, really hate it. This is more my sort of thing. Even so, I've gotta admit she has a massive following, and probable does deserve featured status; must be a very high-traffic article. Blood Red Sandman Open Up Your Heart - Receive My EviLove 19:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
  • No matter how much I can't stand her, this is a kind of article which should be an FA, due to her sheer popularity. And, anyways, I wouldn't mind seeing a celebrity get an FA. There seems to be a lack of celeb FAs here. Jerichi~Profile~Talk~ 21:32, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

  • It seems to me that while information is in flux it is a particularly bad time to make it a collaboration. But, then again, I don't think this is a particularly worthy subject in the first place. Maybe this should be postponed until all of the legal cases are over? gren グレン 11:10, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

  • This is an important topic, yet the page is incomplete and overspecific in areas. There should be a listing of the categories of copyright, a listing of the rights of copyright, and then basic requirements of protection, and infringement. Then the remedies and other misc. sections. Right now is a random amalgamation of pieces with very little order to it. It also needs references to the Copyright Code (title 17).

  • The article is about a book series that has 13 main books (the first three have been made into a movie) and a few spinoff books. This book series deserves a much better page with much less speculation and orginal research. Clamster5 17:28, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
  • A series containing some of the best literature of the 20th and 21st century is often understated. This series demands a far more accurate collection of articles which is rid of all the errors and all the instances of original research which already plagues it. Please, we need this to be imporved.[User:Olympic god|Danny]] 14:26, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • This series of novels already has a huge presence on Wikipedia. There are individual pages of characters and concepts all over this website. Nearly all of them, even the page for the series itself, however, are poorly organized and need to be rewritten. I believe it's a popular enough children's series that it warrants some attention. It deserves to be presented in a more professional manner. Pele Merengue 01:21, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
I couldn't agree more. Theres so much speculation and original research. The series deserves much better pages than this. Clamster5 23:00, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
  • I agree. The number of errors and pointless mistakes throughout all the articles are pathetic. Wikipedia really must do something. It's the website's obligation to correct this very needy area of the encyclopedia.Danny 20:30, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia really needs to improve the articles about this popular children's book series by removing all the random, disorganized speculation lists, and creating uniformity and better organization between the pages, not to mention on them. - Hooky6 00:24, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • The errors in this page truly do need to be corrected. This series is one of the most popular and best written of our time, and it deserves better than this. Nintendofan 7 13:22, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Weight loss is a something many people are trying to find out more about. The term "Weight loss" is searched for millions of times per year in search engines. It would be great if WP's article could provide more info and reach the top of the list on the search engines. The only way to do that is to improve and expand it. frummer 23:18, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

  • This page is the page that appears at the top of the list when anyone runs a search on Google about Jesus, and is currently only at "GA" class status. It is also probably one of the most important articles we have. Badbilltucker 16:28, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I would normally not support an article already at GA - there are other articles that need the help more - but this one's important enough that it really should be an FA. Blood Red Sandman Open Up Your Heart - Receive My EviLove 12:36, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

  • This article is in a dire state and in need of a lot of improvement. Comics are a long standing tradition and the article is rated as being of Top importance, yet it is only a B Ranking! This article NEEDS improved, and it needs it soon. Ixistant 23:27, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Why nominate this instead of the infinitely more important Comics? I'll agree that this is in bad shape, but it's also relatively trivial compared to top-importance articles like Comics. (It's like comparing the article on Sculpture to the article on Marble sculpture in importance.) I just don't see the necessity here. I'd vote for this if you'd nominated Comics or Book instead, as both are more crucial. -Silence 02:17, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Lately there haven't been many nominations geared more towards article creation than article improvement, but this is an exception. Psychedelic music is a disambiguation page, but recent discussion on its talk page showed a consensus to turn it into an article describing the links and common themes among different genres of psychedelico. Let's change gears every once in a while and play ARC instead of AID! Dekimasuが... 03:30, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Now a short stub! It needs at least a paragraph apiece on each significant subgenre (psychedelic rock, psybient, etc.) based on the content of their main articles. Dekimasuが... 08:28, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

  • This was the only scandal to cause the resignation of a United States president, but few people under the age of fifty know much more about it than that. For two years requests have piled up at the talk page for the article to explain its subject with tolerable clarity. Today's reader still doesn't learn why five men burglarized the Democratic National Committee headquarters shortly before the end of primary season during an election year or that twenty-one federal officials received actual or suspended prison sentences as a result. Major players such as Richard Kleindienst - the only United States Attorney General ever to receive a criminal conviction for misconduct in office - aren't even mentioned. Although edit wars rage over at Kennedy assassination theories and 9/11 conspiracy theories, the most meticulously documented actual conspiracy in recent history languishes: this is probably a B class article but no Wikiproject has bothered to evaluate it. Let's fix this major gap in our encyclopedia. DurovaCharge! 03:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I'd say B-class as well; I assess articles for a couple of projects. Blood Red Sandman Open Up Your Heart - Receive My EviLove 13:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I agree with Durova. I still ask the "Why?". It has all the info of who was involved with much gusto and mentions the tampering of the tapes, but there is no explanation as to why it happened in the first place?
Unfortunately the article lacks a good grasp of the names. CREEP only turns up in the infobox, and that was the central funding body for the illegal schemes. The burglary was the culmination of a coordinated dirty tricks campaign through the entire primary season where they smeared every major Democratic presidential candidate except George McGovern because McGovern polled the weakest against Nixon. Gaps of that magnitude are all over the place at this article and most people who didn't live through the era or study it on a university level don't know enough background to spot the omissions. It even misses easy stuff, such as how New York Times columnist William Safire (a former Nixon administration speechwriter) is the main source of -gate as the common suffix for subsequent scandals.

  • The start of Saturday Night Live was in the time frame of Presidents Nixon and Ford and are scheduled to be released soon I read someplace season #1 DVD complete set. As television came into importance and entertainment programming satire of politics of the time period. It would seem good to collect information while those alive at the time are still around. I know that for some time info on the tapes and time period become available, President Ford's death brought some recent interest in the time period and comparisons in newspaper editorials of the Vietnam War and present Iraq war comparisons. It is of benefit to gain knowledge of the past to not let the mistakes of the past happen again. As for answers to why, that may be a hard to answer question...kidsheaven 22:47, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

  • This article is about a very important topic: essentially, the International Court of Justice (the highest court of the United Nations) ruled that nuclear weapons are illegal under various counts of international law. Despite the ruling, however, states continue to deploy (and, in the case of the Trident missile) upgrade nuclear weapons. The article has received less than 100 edits since it was created in March 2004, and has never received any consistent attention. I am going to start working on it, and will provide some references on the articles talk page: there's loads of stuff out there. Jim (Talk) 17:57, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

  • This article was voted as the main article an AID in April 2005. However, since then, the article has deteriorated. Weasel words plague the place, and there is a POV dispute. Also, Separation is a very important part of society today, and shoud be a good article. Diez2 23:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keeps an atheist like me safe from theocracy. This is VERY important to me and to the world. mirageinred 01:00, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Above comment shows one reason the article needs rework. It becomes a stomping ground for atheists. The article in general is incoherent, lacks relevant citations, and becomes wound up in the pov of the authors, whether atheist or religious. It needs to be much shorter. CBadSurf 05:37, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I've done the best I can to prune the pointless material and source/de-weasel what I can. It's way too much for me, though, but at least now it's just incoherent and random, rather than huge, incoherent and random. I'm quite sure that an improved article would last a lot longer than the last one. After all, the angry atheists, "Christian America" advocates, and other people that wrecked the article before in order to push their agendas have Separation of church and state in the United States to throw their crayons at. ;) Collard 07:47, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I STRONGLY believe any rewrite needs to balance FAIRLY both sides to this issue. Contrary to modern secular progressive dogma, there is an overwhelming amount of evidence to suggest the founding fathers did not practice the kind of separation of church and state as the popular media and modern debate would have most believe. I have documented my claims with linkage to the LOC web site which can be found here.

Curators for the LOC web exhibit have published the following material based on factual historical accounts:

“ It is no exaggeration to say that on Sundays in Washington during the administrations of Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809) and of James Madison (1809-1817) the state became the church. Within a year of his inauguration, Jefferson began attending church services in the House of Representatives. Madison followed Jefferson's example, although unlike Jefferson, who rode on horseback to church in the Capitol, Madison came in a coach and four. Worship services in the House--a practice that continued until after the Civil War--were acceptable to Jefferson because they were nondiscriminatory and voluntary. Preachers of every Protestant denomination appeared. (Catholic priests began officiating in 1826.) As early as January 1806 a female evangelist, Dorothy Ripley, delivered a camp meeting-style exhortation in the House to Jefferson, Vice President Aaron Burr, and a "crowded audience." Throughout his administration Jefferson permitted church services in executive branch buildings. The Gospel was also preached in the Supreme Court chambers.

Jefferson's actions may seem surprising because his attitude toward the relation between religion and government is usually thought to have been embodied in his recommendation that there exist "a wall of separation between church and state." In that statement, Jefferson was apparently declaring his opposition, as Madison had done in introducing the Bill of Rights, to a "national" religion. In attending church services on public property, Jefferson and Madison consciously and deliberately were offering symbolic support to religion as a prop for republican government.

 ”

The factual truth behind the practices of the Founding Fathers should NOT be ignored in any presentation of this issue on Wikipedia. If these facts are buried or ignored by those who wish to give a modern day reinterpretation of the concept of Separation of Church, then any rewrite of this article will be based on a MODERN POV rather than a historically accurate recounting of the contemporary practices of the day during Jefferson and Madison’s administration.

    • The founding fathers also allowed sexism and racism. Anyway, this article needs improvement badly. Xiner (talk, email) 21:37, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
      • All of that is rather irrelevent though. Since there is a separate article about Separation of church and state in the United States, this article needs to say a lot less about the US situation - founding fathers, the US constitution, etc - and concentrate much more on antidisestablishmentarianism in other countries, and as a general discussion subject. The US situation should be about a paragraph and it should start with a {{main|Separation of church and state in the United States}}. That's a much harder task - the breadth of the subject is huge and would (by necessity) cover a huge range of religions and government systems. My concern is that judging from the commentary above, this effort would get derailed into making another article that would be almost entirely about the US situation - and that would be worse than doing nothing IMHO. SteveBaker 03:51, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Um... the ACID is for improving the article in general. Right now the article is in sorry shape because of POV, weasel words, and a US focus. Diez2 13:08, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
  • This article needs to be up to standard, as it keeps us religious people safe from being told how to run our church. Joiz A. Shmo 22:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
Once again, if you read the above, you will see that this kind of attitude right above me is what is making this article such a POV problem. The ultra-religious as well as the ultra-anti-religious each are trying to advance their own agendas, which is creating this huge problem. Diez2 13:12, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
Indeed, The facts are as one can read from the various publications the founding fathers wrote around the creation of the country that they did intentionally seperate the church and state for reasons among one being that some of them had themselves been persucated by the state because they didn't follow the particular teachings of the state's church. Hence they seperated it for being able to practice whatever religious belives a person themselves seemed fit. That happens to also include to practice no beliefe in anything. But as pointed out that is just a small note on the article and should be adressed in the Separation of church and state in the United States. While this article have much more information in general to tell.
The obvious fact still stands, this is a controversial topic for some odd reason I can not imagine. The article should be dealt with and then protected of some sort if the article derails once again. Lord Metroid 14:36, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

  • This is a basic and central concept in physics, and requires improvement. The article needs cleanup, and I think it deserves some more attention from non-physicists. This is a topic that I imagine many physics students will look at, and I feel that the central concepts ought to be both better presented and more accessible/readable. -- Iotha 02:29, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Parts of this article are borderline BS, especially the beginning of the explanation section. ("Einstein explained in 1905 that a magnetic field is the relativistic part of an electric field.") It needs a pretty thorough going over, not just for clarity but for correctness. (Much of the article is fine, but the parts that aren't stick out like a sore thumb to me.) --Starwed 11:55, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

  • For an aircraft that served in three major wars, this article is shamefully short. Shameful! No discussion or explanation about it being redesignated - twice! - the second time politically - either. This was one of the more important aircraft of late WWII and one of the most important aircraft in Korea, and played a major role in Vietnam.

  • Came to my attention when many people at my College wanted to do a coursework assignment on Kevlar but found the Wikipedia article to be very very limited, barely above stub! For something with quite a bit of hype and "wowness" factor, we really could use a more comprehensive article. Thanks for voting :) Benbread 13:32, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

  • The article has improved somehow since it was peer reviewed on May 2006. Some more work has to be done, mainly sourcing and referencing. Szvest - Wiki me up ® 11:06, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

  • One of the should-be-core topics of Wikipedia, it should definitely be featured, in my opinion. Yuser31415 20:18, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Definitely agreed; this should be a featured article. Whilding87 11:49, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
  • This article's lack of FA saddens me. Very much so. I'd say that it's a core article, and the FA'd be nice. Jerichi~Profile~Talk~ 21:30, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
    • It surprises me that such a expanse subject has a small article. I agree with Jerichi. Chastity Marks 14:15, 29 January 2007
  • This article is so far from even being GA this it is pitiful. It is full of trivia and misconcenptions. IMO, if it is not improved soon then it should either be redirected, stubified, or deleted. --EMS | Talk 17:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Widely known topic around the world, and is sort of important in regards to the Internet culture. One of the first things you learn when you first go on the internet is the .com thing. Maybe we could improve the article enough to get rid of the nasty cleanup tag, and improve it to make it good, or possibly featured. --andrew|ellipsed...Speak 09:58, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • This is something we all know a lot about.--CJ King 01:12, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I voted for it but… how much could we improve/expand it? All other generic top-level domains entries seem to be about the same size and quality. —Gennaro Prota•Talk 20:08, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Well, we could source the unsourced statements, cleanup the article, and expand it a bit. It's really short (all the other domain articles could be improved and expanded too, this is just the most common domain, so it's the most "important"). -theblueflamingoSpeak 23:13, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

  • I believe that a major video game genre needs a better article than what it currently has and the article needs citation help badly. I believe that with a bit of work, the article will be up to GA quality! Greeves (talk • contribs) 19:41, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
  • He's right, this article is close to going GA, and I'm convinced of its importance; I've randomly (offline) met people who have read it, and it's been cited as a source by the BBC three times. --Beefnut 22:53, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
  • As a reminder, this is not WP:CORE COTW. Any article can come here and this one having been cited by BBC (showing that the article has some major importance) and being close to GA shows that it has great potential for the WP:AID. Did you know that revenues for these games are over 15 million dollars as of last year and by 2009 they are expected to reach over a billion dollars - don't tell me that this article has no importance as nobody has ever heard of MMORPGs. This article may not be core (or close enough for you) but it is important in modern society around the world. Greeves (talk • contribs • reviews) 14:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

  • This year (on 4 October, to be precise) will mark the 50th anniversary of the launch of Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite. The article is now somewhat incoherent and elaborates on further missions, the space race etc. It is also lacking in-line references. Let's get this article to FA-status! Errabee 00:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
  • The article doesn't even mention Sergey Korolyov. Sad. But there may be a problem in trying to get sound references for this page. — RJH (talk) 15:39, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Yes the article is too bad due to absence of in-line references. There is also a bunch of POV issues there, for example: "Both nations attempted to out-do each other in space exploration, eventually culminating in the launch of the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon". Who decided that this was the "culmination"? The "Space Race" section at all should be replaced by only one sentence, stating, that Sputnik started the space race. Cmapm 21:47, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I'd like to see more reference to the cultural significance and ramifications of the launching of Sputnik from a global perspective. Paul James Cowie 11:07, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
  • True, no mention is made of this as the start of the space race, and thoughts of who was ahead in technology of the cold war. The USSR was seen as at it's peak and ahead in technology-a turning point for the coming decades all point back at this start. The detail of Sputnik was not known at the time and that was very important from then until the fall of the Soviet Union. sorry forgot to sign list...kidsheaven 00:00, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Dr. Brown, in addition to being a close friend and confidant of Flannery O'Connor, taught English for 50+ years, instructing the likes of students like Cy Twombley and Tom Wolfe (both at Washington and Lee). His published output is remarkable and his boyhood home, in Louisville, KY, is now known as the [Rocket House].

  • Woefully undercited, rather bulky, and is one of the most recognized animals in the world. Though it's not much of an argument, it really does deserve to be at featured status. bibliomaniac15 01:22, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
It's enough of an argument for me. I may not be able to do anything other than copyedit, as I know nothing about the field, but I'm willing to help where I can. Badbilltucker 01:29, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Fully agree. I know a good amount about horses, so I'll see what I can do. Amphytrite 00:49, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
  • "Woefully undercited" is an understatement, and I am one of the editors! I have been keeping an eye on this article for quite some time and adding bits here and there--more often moving bits OUT and creating new articles! The lack of citation is a major problem for FA status, I agree...we may want to first try for GA status...I know for myself, much of the material I added is knowledge that I have in my head, I've only been around horses for over 40 years, after all...I can dig up books and web sites where it can be located, but so can anyone else...anyway, I strongly encourage anyone with texts or good links (University Extension sites are particularly good, they have scientific authenticity that "Susy's pony page" does not...) There are also problems with organization, some things are redundant, and the constant threat of POV pushing of people's individual "thing" is always lurking...the article is also subject to constant vandalism every time it gets unprotected...I think we seem to have won at least semi-permanent semi-protection, at least. Anyway, the article needs help, and it particularly needs citations. I'm voting for it, but just to see if we can draw in more good, experienced editors to the project, not because I think we are anywhere close to "good." Montanabw 04:20, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

There is a plethora of types of aircraft and should be mentioned or linked to this artictle. Chastity Marks09:53,, 02 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Agreed. I also think that it has become too much of a POV battleground as it stands today in wikipedia. Perhaps there should be a new article on the diverging views of the causes of poverty? --Kukini 21:44, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Cause and effect sections need to be reworked into narratives or removed, since the lists are just POV. Castellanet 06:58, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
  • futurebird really summed it up.Daniel()Folsom T|C|U 02:03, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment The cause section needs to bring up all different kinds of theories about poverty such as classic liberal and socialistic likewise. As it is now it is just an alarmist's agenda screaming out their POV. Lord Metroid 14:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
  • It would be good to develop on the historical dimension of poverty, and also on the point of view of the poor themselves XavierV 15:41, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

  • The article currently only discusses the practices of one organization with regard to entities with observer status. I think an interesting article could be developed on this topic, noting various groups that use "observer status" and the different rights/responsibilities that come along with it. Searching Google suggests to me that this is not a very well represented topic in the world of internet reference sites. Gentgeen 08:11, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

  • A must-have article for any encyclopedia, this is a mess. The relevant Wikiproject has only just been created and as yet has very few members. This should be a well-written, lavishly illustrated FA. Instead, it's a Eurocentric playground for people to edit war over photos of their local castle. Ugh. Dweller 15:23, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Could the gallery be moved to the commons? — RJH (talk) 17:28, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I agree with Dweller. This article follows a messy, illogical and Eurocentric style. I have left comments on the talk page, rating this article as "Start" class: Talk:Castle#Rating. --Grimhelm 18:42, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

  • The reason for this nomination is: Wikipedia is planning to make a paper release version very soon after the CD release.
Peer review This article was externally reviewed on October 24, 2005 by The Guardian. It was rated 5/10. However, as noted below, they reviewed an earlier and somewhat different version of the article, and the results of that review are controversial in the Wikipedia community

  • Surely the happiest place on Earth deserves a happy ending... bibliomaniac15 06:07, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Never visited there, we drove around and thought is was so small compared to Disney World(it really is a Small World after All), but this is the place that started it all. Prior to Disneyland, there were no Theme Parks! Walt Disney wanted to improve the image of the common Amusement Park to something better, they did not have a good image or the quality that is more common today. Kidsheaven 00:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
