[edit] Moustache

It would be very timely to have this up in November in honor of Movember, (itself one of the funniest, if not best written, articles I've found) DiceDiceBaby 17:01, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

  • Strong Object. It's a rambling and confused lead followed by two lists, one of them arbitrary. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 17:07, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
  • It's 90% list! Where's the beef prose? Raul654 21:00, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object This is disappointing. It is missing references, and is mostly full of lists, not enough context! — Wackymacs 10:09, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object, lacks references, seriously list heavy. I do however support the inclusion of notable people with moustaches. - Mgm|(talk) 11:45, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Even though it would either be an arbitrary selection, or run to thousands of people, if you include historical figures? —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 17:04, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object as per above. I would gladly support a moustache FA, but it would have to include topics such as cultural differences regarding moustaches and trends in historical popularity. As it stands, it ought to be completely trashed and rewritten. The Catfish 00:15, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. "Edgar Allan Poe had a simple moustache." This article has the worst captions I've ever seen. Not to mention all that is aforementioned. Harro5 03:33, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Well, they aren't very exciting though they are all in relation to the moustaches the people are wearing. If you can think up better ones, please do! --Fastfission 13:15, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object mostly lists, no mention of Salvadore Dali, who I think had possibly one of the most spectacular mostaches ever :-) Ta bu shi da yu 07:47, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Just as an aside, it actually it does mention Dali. --Fastfission 13:15, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. It's (sadly) much better than it used to be, but it's not really an "article" much less a "featured article". --Fastfission 13:15, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
