[edit] Helsinki

This Featured Article nomination is inspired by Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Turku. Anything Turku can do, Helsinki can do better! I feel that this article is at least as well written and informative as Turku, particularly since I and User:Gillis (well, mostly Gillis) went through it over and over again and formatted it to be more encyclopedic. It's currently the most linked-to article about a Finnish city, and its own category has the most articles and subcategories, which is only fair, as it's by far Finland's largest city. I also want to express thanks to User:Ulayiti for all the work he did on the Turku article. JIP | Talk 20:54, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Object. This is nowhere near Featured quality. Try Wikipedia:Peer review first? — Matt Crypto 12:50, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Object, though I feel that this article will soon be ready for featured status if it goes through peer review. Simple redirects to main pages on things like "Politics of Helsinki" aren't enough, there needs to be at least an abbreviated discussion of the main themes found on that page, and so on. The article is nice, but it's still a few steps away from being a truly professional treatment.
  • Object, agreeing with other users; No references. Sections are extremely weak, often with as little as one sentence. The article has to become much more thorough for a chance at FA status. AndyZ 20:39, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Object, As much as i'd want to see this article that i have worked on quite a bit myself to be featured i'll have to admit it still needs a bit of work to reach FA-status, although i am certain we can do that with the help of a peer-review. And i am certainly certain we can beat Turku to it ;) Gillis 21:48, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Object. The article is (literally) structurally flawed as many images and text compete for space. Peer review is imperative for this article. - Sidar 02:47, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
