Currently there are nine separate GA quality articles that involve Croatia politics that includes its independence referendum, its government, and some of its foreign relations. --Jon698 (talk) 00:44, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose: This topic doesn't seem complete. Surely it should include Constitution of Croatia, as well as Judiciary of Croatia, neither of which is currently a GA? Counties of Croatia might also belong here (it's a FL). Likewise, if the topic is going to include Croatia's other neighbor relations, then it should also include Croatia–Serbia relations and Croatia–Slovenia relations (which aren't GAs), and if it's going to include Croatia–Serbia border dispute, then it also needs Croatia–Slovenia border disputes. Featured Topic Criterion 1(d) says that there must be "no obvious gaps (missing or low-quality articles) in the topic. A topic must not cherry pick only the best articles to become featured together." You can propose what you want the scope of the topic to be, but then all articles within that scope must exist and be GA or better. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 01:05, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy oppose I was about to thank you for your work on this having written my comments but the unfortunately retired User:Tomobe03 appears to have written all of these, not sure how you'll be able to respond to my suggestions... This is a poor selection of articles. Prime Minister of Croatia needs to be included since he's the primary political and government leader. Why have "Croatia-Bosnia relations" shown but piping to Agreement on Friendship and Cooperation between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia when there's literally Bosnia and Herzegovina–Croatia relations? And why Hungary but not Croatia–Serbia relations or Croatia–Slovenia relations? With such a broad topic there can be discretion in what's included toward being comprehensive (should the judiciary count in politics/government?) but this isn't well-defined. I'd say leave out foreign affairs altogether and make it on domestic politics, but besides PM you'd need at least Constitution of Croatia and probably Speaker of the Croatian Parliament.

- Oppose - Agree with Bryan Rutherford and Reywas92 that the articles in this topic seem broad, random and incomplete. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 23:31, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - the comment "Currently there are nine separate GA quality articles that involve Croatia politics" implies that the nominator is working under the misunderstanding that you can group together GAs relating to a topic and nominate them, even if they don't cover the whole of the topic, which unfortunately is definitely the case here....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:25, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
