Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Xanadu House/archive4
4th self-nomination. I really do believe it is ready this time! Having been through FAC three times before, lots of issues have been addressed by various great and experienced users on Wikipedia. It has sufficient images, with sufficient copyright status, and lots of References and external links. It has been copy-edited a few times, and gives a good read. It has also been through peer review once. — Wackymacs 18:43, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
- Support. A good article that introduced me to a topic that was totally new to me. It seems that the previous issues have been pretty much resolved.
The only thing that worries me is the contradictory copyright templates on Image:Xanadu-bedroom.jpg - you should fix that.rspeer 07:10, 30 November 2005 (UTC)- Thanks for the support. The image Image:Xanadu-bedroom.jpg was scanned from a copyrighted book, and is as fair use with a rationale. I dont think there is anything wrong with that. What tag would you suggest instead? — Wackymacs 07:47, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry, got the wrong one. I meant Image:Xanadukitchen.jpg, which has two copyright templates that say different things on it. rspeer 01:32, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- OK, I removed one of the copyright templates from it. — Wackymacs 08:14, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

- Weak support -- Interesting article on a difficult topic. I covered several issues by communicating with the Wackymacs, and I'm willing to support the article. I'm slightly uncomfortable with the relatively sparse number of footnotes, and the smallish number of sources; I'd feel more comfortable if some of the External Links were made into References and cited in the article. But I'm happy with where things are. -- Creidieki 23:49, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
- Support. A good article that enlightens us on a seldom-heard of topic, this deserves to be featured. As homes are increasingly computer-driven, this time capsule of late 70s "home of tomorrow" ambitions becomes more and more relevant. NickDupree 5 December 2005
- Support. Good stuff, though is there a way to prevent four sentences in a row in the Xanadu in Print section from starting with "The book" ? Rampart 15:34, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for your support, I've improved the wording in this section slightly. — Wackymacs 15:39, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Support. Interesting article on one aspect of the history of alternate housing, enough images.--Dakota t e 17:48, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
