Wikipedia:Featured and good topic removal candidates

Removing Good and Featured Topics in Wikipedia If you feel a topic on Wikipedia:Featured topics or a topic on Wikipedia:Good topics should no longer be there, then this is the place to nominate it for demotion. Only topics that do not adhere to the good or featured topic criteria should be listed. Objections raised must be actionable. Do not nominate topics that have recently been promoted (such complaints should have been brought up during the candidacy period on Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates), or topics that have recently survived a removal attempt—such nominations are likely to be removed summarily. Once a topic has been nominated on this page for ten days, the discussion will be assessed for consensus by one of the FGTC coordinators, who will close the discussion. If there is consensus to remove, it will be removed from the list of featured topic, and added to the list of former featured topics. All discussions will be logged at Wikipedia:Featured topic removal candidates/archive. The removal instructions are located here. Purge the cache to refresh this page

Nomination procedure Place {{FTRCmain|ExampleTopicName|X}} or {{GTRCmain|ExampleTopicName|X}} (as appropriate) on the talk page of the main article of the topic, where X is the desired archive number. From there, click on the "add a comment" link. Add ===ExampleTopicName=== and the topic's box copied from Wikipedia:Featured topics/ExampleTopicName. Below it, write your reason for nominating the topic. Note which of the featured topic criteria that the topic fails to meet. Place {{Wikipedia:Featured topic removal candidates/ExampleTopicName/archiveX}} (again, where X is the desired archive number) at the top of the list of nominees on this page by first copying the above, clicking "edit" on the top of the page, and then pasting, making sure to add the name of the nominated article. Supporting and objecting Please read all the articles of the nominated topic fully before deciding to support or oppose a nomination. To edit nominations in order to comment on them, you must click the "edit" link to the right of the article nomination on which you wish to comment (not the overall page's "edit this page" link). If you approve of a nomination to remove, write '''Delist''' followed by your reasons. If you oppose of a nomination to remove, write '''Keep''' followed by the reason for your objection. Each objection must provide a justification why the topic does not violate the listed criteria. If you want to delay the nomination while another nomination takes place, such as adding new items to the topic or nominating member articles for Good Article status, write '''HOLD''' with a link to the relevant nomination and this nomination will not be closed until after the other one. To withdraw a support or objection, strike it out (with <s>...</s>) rather than removing it. Consensus must be reached for a topic to be removed from featured status. If enough time passes without objections being resolved, nominations will be removed from the candidates list and archived. As a general guide, new topics will remain on here for at least 10 days to allow for comment, and must have at least 4 remove votes (although consensus and lack of major objections are also important) for removal.

All of the sub-articles were merged (other than the timeline), so the topic should be removed. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:06, 18 July 2026 (UTC)

Bully

Bully was released on March 28, and with its corresponding article never receiving a GAN prior to the expiration of the retention period on June 28, this topic fails criterion 3.b. JHD0919 (talk) 14:00, 2 July 2026 (UTC)

• Delist per nomination. I know Kyle Peak it the promoter of most of this GA's and he might be able to promote it back when the time is right.MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 17:06, 5 July 2026 (UTC)
• Comment I don't think I'd be allowed to vote on this list as a contributor to majority of these albums, however I don't think calling for demotion is suitable here. This is because while the retention period has been reached, myself and other editors have been working on Bully as you can see a record of on my talk page. --K. Peake 18:07, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

  Judging from the talk page it appears that @RTSthestardust and @Wackistan have also been working on the article. Paging them both here for their thoughts. JHD0919 (talk) 18:14, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

  Hi, I would say to leave it for a bit since we're nearly done. Once the composition section is rewritten I'll submit it for GA. Wackistan (talk) 23:19, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

  Coordinator comment: Sounds good, we are happy to leave it for now. Thanks for the communication. Aza24 (talk) 22:15, 11 July 2026 (UTC)

  How is this coming along, Wackistan?--NØ 20:14, 24 July 2026 (UTC)

  RTSthestardust was writing the new composition section but I don't think he's touched it in a bit. I'm pretty sure I have enough time today to finish it for him and add it in, though I'd prefer if someone else nominates the article themselves. Wackistan (talk) 21:53, 24 July 2026 (UTC)

  I had been focused on other projects at this time, but I might continue working on it tonight. It's a difficult article to go through. Once I'm done with the composition section, I'll merge it in with the whole article. - RTSthestardust (talk) 00:01, 25 July 2026 (UTC)

  I finished and finally stitched the composition section with the latest revision prior to that edit RTSthestardust (talk) 03:56, 25 July 2026 (UTC)

  @Wackistan @Kyle Peake @JHD0919 I've been improving it further with illustrating the article and especially from the composition section. I wouldn't really nominate it yet until these things are finished: citation cleaning (like linking the websites on citations), working on personnel/what streaming service to credit, and info about the tour/concerts being more concise and less messy. RTSthestardust (talk) 03:56, 26 July 2026 (UTC)

  For streaming services to credit, I'd suggest using maybe Spotify? It's the only one Gamma prioritizes updating the credits on (for example, Al Be Back's writing credit on "Damn" wasn't added to Apple, as was Glen 'Divinci' Valencia Jr.'s credit on "I Can't Wait". Wackistan (talk) 05:30, 26 July 2026 (UTC)

  Not sure why I was pinged here. I couldn't nominate it even if I wanted to, as it would be considered a drive-by nom. JHD0919 (talk) 10:32, 26 July 2026 (UTC)

  Btw, I'm working on the track list and personnel on my sandbox to replace with. It would be better and concise than what remained on the article for months. - RTSthestardust (talk) 15:00, 26 July 2026 (UTC)
