After looking at the topic I asked mysele, WHy is this a featured topic? Only 1/3 of the articles are good or featured. Most of the others have no rating which makes me wonder how this got passed in the first place. In my opnion, at least half should by Good/FA. The Placebo Effect 21:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

  • It was promoted in the early days of the project, before all of the rules were as they are now. --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 04:19, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Strong remove — it was an early promotion, sort of like "brilliant prose" with FAs. Besides, the two primary articles are already included in the FF games topic. — Deckiller 02:07, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
    • The fact that the two primary articles are already included in another topic is not grounds for removal. The FT system was designed to allow subtopics to branch off of top-level topics, just like this does. Also, there is no such thing as "speedy remove" (or a "speedy promote" for that matter). All topics deserve thier two weeks so that interested parties can make thier points. Who knows, maybe some user would be willing to get all of these articles up to GA status within the next few days. --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 04:17, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
      • I understand that it is not grounds for removal; I was using it as a seperate point. The editors normally associated with this article (myself not included) have for the most part left. I'm going on Wikibreak due to stress, so I won't be able to work on them either. The rest of the Final Fantasy project seems to be busy working on other issues right now, especially with a lot of other issues presenting themselves. However, the "speedy remove" comment was not for this reason; it was to emphasise my wrongdoing for nominating the FT several months ago in the first place. In other words, I did not mean it to be taken literally. I'll change it to strong remove instead. — Deckiller 04:26, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • As a member of WP:FF, WP:SE, and WP:VG, all of whom claim this topic as their own, it hurts to say this, but remove. It does stick out like a sore thumb when looking at the FT page, doesn't it. --PresN 05:40, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Remove Agree with nom - there simply isn't enough high quality pages to warrant status as a featured topic. Qjuad 05:55, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Remove, the only high-quality articles are Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2, and they're already in another Featured Topic. --Teggles 05:57, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Remove - This doesn't quite cut it, too many B-class articles. It's too bad, because many of those articles are moderatly long and referenced. It wouln't take too much work to get these up to snuff. --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 04:23, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Remove as there's too many non GA/FAs. I'd suggest working up the articles and renominating in future. LuciferMorgan 01:55, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Remove I'm going to have to agree with the above and say there are too many articles that aren't GAs or FAs for this to be an FT. Jay32183 20:41, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Remove as per all of the above. Tarret 18:45, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Removal passed --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 06:02, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
