Vital improvements

edit

This topic satisfies current criteria just fine. -- igordebraga 22:57, 20 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

This topic does not meet current Wikipedia:Featured topic criteria, and will be eligible for removal after 1 January 2008 if this situation is not rectified. In particular, a lead article (presumably Star Wars) must be found and improved to at least GA level. Alternatively, one could consider trying to improve Star Wars original trilogy and Star Wars prequel trilogy, and splitting the topic in two; but this is probably not a wise idea since one would also have to ensure that each of these two also have at least three FAs, and the original trilogy article fall short on this.--Pharos 02:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

It's still probably a not a good idea to split this in two (making Star Wars GA is probably easier than making both the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy GA), but I was probably overinterpreting a requirement for 3 FAs. Anyway, I think it might be a good idea to just designate Star Wars the lead immediately, so at least it's in the standard format, even if it isn't meeting criteria yet; is there any problem with this?--Pharos 06:09, 13 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
The last time we tried that it failed, but if you want to give it another go, you'll have my support. It might pass if we try nominating it while specifically saying in the nomination that the topic is on provisional status anyway. --Arctic Gnome (talkcontribs) 06:47, 13 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
I'd support doing so too because it would make people more likely to improve Star Wars if they see it needs improving. Pious7 13:46, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Definitely agree that this needs a proper Main articles ASAP. Circeus 18:42, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

::Also, following a disgraceful FAR for Episode III, it needs to reach GA/FA level again. igordebraga 16:25, 2 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

One more article will need to be brought to FA status by 1 April 2009 per the new requirements for Featured topics. Dabomb87 (talk) 03:15, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

This one will be tougher than the Zelda one, but I'll still get there. Gary King (talk) 03:18, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Potential improvements

edit

Of course it would also be nice if Return of the Jedi was brought up to FA to complete the set.--Pharos 02:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Four other articles could also reach Featured status: Star Wars (GA), and the entirety of the prequel trilogy (GAs and former FAs, demoted after three disgraceful FARs) igordebraga 02:05, 9 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Possible additions

edit

It is possible that articles on some characters, etc. could be added to this topic in future.--Pharos 02:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

How about the two trilogy articles, or stuff from Category:Lists of Star Wars characters? Circeus 18:38, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Generating some ideas, possible expansions as far as I see are:

Lots of potential! Though none of the articles are up to scratch for now I think and several of these expansions/related topics would be very large and a lot of work - rst20xx (talk) 20:02, 4 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
