I feel that this topic is incomplete. Sure there are no other articles relating to the second season on Wikipedis, but that's just it. This topic only has the season proper and two episode articles, one being the season finale even though the other is not for the season premiere. If you have a topic that is for an entire season and its missing a huge chunk of it, it just screams that it fails 1.d in the
criteria.
GamerPro64 00:31, 8 July 2013 (UTC)reply
Keep (as original editor). There are no other articles because any relevant information for the rest of the season, including the premiere, is included in the season article. The events and thoughts behind the premiere impact the entire season, and thus are more relevant to the season article.

This review wasn't intended to try to force articles to be created. Rather to show that this topic is incomplete. Criteria 1.d says "There are no obvious gaps (missing or low quality articles) in the topic". And this topic is missing articles. And if there is no clear way to make articles that can obtain at least Good Article status then this topic needs to be delisted.
GamerPro64 19:25, 15 July 2013 (UTC)reply
That is your interpretation of the policy. All relevant information for the other episodes is adequately covered in the season page, so there are no "missing" articles in my opinion.
Ωphois 18:19, 16 July 2013 (UTC)reply
Keep If no other article can come out, it's complete.

The retention period for
Metamorfosis World Tour ended on June 9, so this topic no longer satisfies criterion 3(b), so the topic should be demoted until that article gets up to at least GA.--十八 07:49, 16 June 2013 (UTC)reply
The reason why I myself did not start a GTR was because the article for the World Tour is up at GAN. It has been for over a month and if say it was promoted the day after this nomination was made, the review comes off as irrelevant.

I think I nominated the topic initially, and I don't have the energy to work on the new album. Considering previous examples of GTs I suggest/propose to change the scope of the topic to just the studio albums.

GamerPro64 21:50, 10 June 2013 (UTC)reply
But I find this argument to be a little shallow when, as I noted,
WP:VG has two current FTs which include separate character articles in their topics so as to satisfy
WP:WIAFT criterion 1(d) for completeness:
Wikipedia:Featured topics/Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and (perhaps ironically, being another Final Fantasy topic)
Wikipedia:Featured topics/Final Fantasy VIII. So I believe this topic should be delisted until
Vaan and
Balthier are brought up to at least GA and added to the topic per criterion 1(d). Also, the GA Fortress may also need to be added to the topic, but perhaps that is for a later discussion.--十八 22:01, 13 March 2013 (UTC)reply
Both articles look really good. A few easy to fix issues are there such as proper ref citation. Fortress is already at GA. I suggest fixing these articles within the week and nominate them for Ga. If they fail, then we remove it as a featured topic. If we remove it now then itll just leave more work.
Lucia Black (
talk) 22:20, 13 March 2013 (UTC)reply
Oppose - I agree that the Fortress article must be added to satisfy completeness, but I think the character articles are a grey area. The featured topic criteria is vague on this point, and it has been understood to this point that these topics are focused on the game articles themselves. Perhaps we have to first come to a consensus on what the correct formatting should be, and it probably goes like this; if there is a "characters of" article with two or more character articles, that should be a separate topic, and only the characters of article should be present inthe games article with a link to the separate character topic. If there is one character article, it should be added to the topic for completeness sake.
Judgesurreal777 (

Comment I am finding it difficult to accept this reasoning. How can you suggest that a list of all the characters of a given game is more necessary for inclusion than individual character articles from the same game? Just because it covers more content? If this isn't an example of
cherry picking, I don't know what is. Why should the project treat only this topic differently when there are two current topics that have character branch articles?--十八 00:07, 14 March 2013 (UTC)reply
Oh I agree with you, we should not treat articles differently. I am saying that this has been a gray area till now, since topics have been promoted both with and without their individual character articles. I am saying that we should find a consensus position, and my proposal is that if there are at least 3 character articles (1 characters of article and 2 individual characters, they should be a subtopic, and only the characters of article should be in the games topic. Otherwise, they should all be a part of the games topic. If this reasoning makes sense, I think a nomination should be started to add the Fortress article and define the criteria at the featured topics criteria talk page.

Axem Titanium (

So what you're saying is to have this FTRC closed, then put them up for GAN which may take weeks leaving a void in the topic and then do a supp nom even though there was an FTRC that would've taken care of it all. I'm sorry but as a delegate, and you mentioning these two articles should be part of the topic in the first place which doesn't make sense, I think the review should stay up until the GANs are taken care of.
GamerPro64 01:26, 14 March 2013 (UTC)reply
If you're saying that a potential outcome of this FTRC is that those two character articles are added to the FT (i.e. duplicating the functionality of a supplemental nom), then by all means, keep the FTRC open and do that. What I don't want is multiple drawn-out bureaucratic processes when one would suffice.
Axem Titanium (

The GANs for final fantasy related article go pretty fast. I think we are moving to fast just to un-feature the topic. There is still the question of editors believing the character articles is too indirect to be part oof the topic.

Comment - the best this article could hope for would be Good Article I suspect, as it lists people that don't meet the notability criteria of Wikipedia. If it made GA, being the only one of nine of the topic not being featured, would it still be a featured topic, or should we save the energy and just make it a Good Topic?
The Rambling Man (

Yes it would still be a Featured Topic. A topic is featured if 50% or more are of Featured Content.

Oppose Halo 4 is not part of the Good topic, so why does its status matter? You could argue that by 1d, Halo 4 should be added to the topic and therefore it would fail 3b, but I think you'd need to form a consensus to add
Halo 4 to the topic before jumping to the fail step. It's not as though one of the already chosen articles lost its GA status at GAR. It does not seem necessary to me that the topic include Halo 4, and the topics that are included seem sufficient for good topic status. I oppose delisting the topic as it stands, and I oppose adding Halo 4 to the topic. But as an alternative, perhaps the topic could be limited to the "Halo trilogy" or the "Halo trilogy and related media"? --
Odie5533 (

The point is that Halo 4 should be part of the topic given its stated scope. The proposed "Halo trilogy" idea seems needlessly narrow, especially as the parent article for the topic,
List of Halo media, includes the missing articles.

Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn (which is also included in
