[edit] Apollo 9

I'm nominating this article for featured article because I believe that the first flying of a LEM in space was really cool and kind of overlooked. Very important step to landing on the moon and has a lot of detail about the mission.Bender razz (talk) 18:02, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Comment. This appears to be what I think people are calling a "drive-by" nomination, made by a newbie who is not a major contributor to the article, and has nominated it based more on the importance of the subject matter rather than careful scrutiny of FA criteria. As a B-class article, it seems like it's probably not ready to be an FAC. --Melty girl (talk) 18:20, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Comment In that case what needs to happen to bump it up to A class or Better? Bender razz (talk) 18:49, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
