Well Known U.S. National Parks
I have nominated the National Park Service as the main article because it best suits all of the parks, all of the parks listed are all very well known and they are all Featured Articles/List except for Mammoth Cave National Park which is a GA. I have come up with the name "Well Known U.S. National Parks" but if anyone else has a better idea for a name then that might be better.-- Joebengo 03:42, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. I'm not so sure it passes criteria 1 and 5. To be a clearly defined topic, it would have to be every single national park, though that is unfeasible at the time. Are there any of those topics, or other National Parks that are featured, that could be grouped together in a very clearly defined way? Perhaps the original National Parks (I am assuming that a few were established at once), or some other way that is clearly defined by an outside source.

- Oppose - I agree; "well known" is not a clearly defined scope. If there was a widely-recognized title that these major parks shared with eachother, then they could be put under one group, but as is this seems a bit arbitrary. Maybe you could nominate all the parks in one region of the US? -- Arctic Gnome ( talk • contribs) 04:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Support, except why is there a park in Norway in this list ( Rondane National Park)? The other parks would likely be recognized by non-US people, and the list fills in the gaps. Nationalparks 07:21, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose on WP:WIAFT #1 - "well known" is most emphatically not a "well-defined topical scope that does not arbitrarily exclude items". Also, what's a Norwegian national park doing in there? Tompw ( talk) 12:20, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose Topic does not have a well-defined scope, and a Norwegian Park does not belong in the US Park topic. Jay32183 23:45, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
