This article was approved as a GA in 2014. In January 2016, a user unilaterally moved the page to Territorial possessions of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, and added a few sections consisting of short bullet points to turn it into a list. The original text of the GA was kept. I made a move request a few months later, archived at Talk:Territorial possessions of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta; the admin said that the text would have to be moved manually. I finally made the manual move after other users weighed in and consensus seemed present to restore the text to its original location. The text remains essentially the same as it was in 2014 when it was assessed, and I would like to see GA status restored. Fishal ( talk) 13:49, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
Fishal, this article really needs to have its history restored, both the article and talk pages. (To do so, go to WP:REPAIR and make a request at the top of the New requests section.) Since this is an article split, but done to restore the original article content under its original name while the other material survives in its own article, I wouldn't use the "histmerge" template.

So far as I can tell, the removal of Good Article status/icon was out of process: it shouldn't have been removed absent a reassessment, which did not occur. So, technically, once the history is there, the GA status should also still be there. I think a reassessment at this time is a good idea nevertheless, to be sure the article still meets the GA criteria in its current form, but starting from an article that was made a GA in November 2014.
