[edit] World Jump Day

Tomorrow is World Jump Day, so why shouldn't we have this article on the Main Page? --Emx 14:03, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Sorry, but please read the criteria for featured articles; the article does not meet most of those requirements. First, it is extrememly short and not comprehensive, providing only basic information. In addition, the article is not sourced, leaving the impression that the latter part may be original research. Finally, the article is not stable: as the event has not occured yet, the article is bound to change after the event. Flcelloguy (A note?) 16:22, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • I've read that and I agree with you, the article is really short (much shorter than most of other featured articles). Maybe it could be featured article for Friday, after it occurs? --Emx 16:26, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Umm, no. Read the description of a perfect article and tell us how many of those criteria this article fulfills. Phoenix2 17:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose as above --Mcginnly 16:51, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose meets none of the crtiera for an FA, just barely over a stub Jaranda wat's sup 18:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose speedy removal needed from FAC.--Dwaipayan (talk) 18:40, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose it hasn't been peer reviewed - it hasn't been a Good Article - if there is any FA criteria it doesn't totally fail to meet, I'd be suprised. It should never have been proposed as an FAC - speedy removal please. SteveBaker 19:02, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Oppose No adequate referencing, not an encyclopedic tone, the list goes on! —this is messedrocker (talk) 03:18, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose as above, and it also contributes with the hoax. Irelevant. --Yago Stecher 03:37, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose I agree with everyone else and feel like this nomination should be withdrawn. -ScotchMB 11:16, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
