A featured topic (FT) is a collection of inter-related articles in which at least half are featured articles or featured lists. The remaining articles must be at least good quality.

A good topic (GT) is a collection of inter-related articles that are of a good quality (though are not necessarily featured articles) with a less stringent quality threshold than a featured topic.

This page is for the nomination of potential featured and good topics. See the featured and good topic criteria for criteria on both types of topic.

Before nominating a topic, nominators may wish to receive feedback by listing it at the Featured and good topics talk page. Nominators must be sufficiently familiar with the subject matter and sources to deal with objections during the FTC/GTC process. If you nominate something you have worked on, note it as a self-nomination. Nominators who are not significant contributors to the articles of the topic should consult regular editors of the articles prior to nomination. Nominators are expected to respond positively to constructive criticism and to make an effort to address objections promptly.

The featured and good topics coordinators Aza24, MaranoFan and Kyle Peake determine the timing of the process for each nomination. For a nomination to be promoted to FT or GT status, consensus must be reached for a group to be promoted to featured or good topic status. If enough time passes without objections being resolved, nominations will be removed from the candidates topic and archived.

To contact the FGTC coordinators, please leave a message on the FGTC talk page, or use the {{@FGTC}} notification template elsewhere.

Nomination procedure

[edit]

To create a new nomination use the form below (e.g., Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates/Saffron/archive1) and click the "Create new nomination" button.

Once the nomination page is created, remember to transclude it in the appropriate section below, to leave nomination templates on the talk pages of the articles nominated for the topic. For detailed instructions on how to nominate topics or add articles to existing topics, see Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates/Nomination procedure.


Supporting and objecting

[edit]

Please review all the articles of the nominated topic with the featured and good topic criteria in mind 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, write '''Support''' followed by your reasons. Supports that clearly evaluate the criteria will be weighted more than those that do not.
  • If you oppose a nomination, write '''Oppose''' or '''Object''' followed by the reason for your objection. Each objection must provide a specific rationale that can be addressed. If nothing can be done in principle to fix the source of the objection, the objection may be ignored.
    • To withdraw an objection, strike it out (with <s>...</s>) rather than removing it.

For a topic to be promoted to featured or good topic status, consensus must be reached that it meets the criteria. The FGTC coordinators are usually the ones to assess this consensus and close FGTC discussions. If there is a consensus to promote, the promote instructions are located here. If enough time passes without objections being resolved (at least one week), nominations will be removed from the candidates list and archived. Nominations will stay here for ten days if there is unanimous consent, or longer if warranted by debate.

Swimming at the 2024 Summer Olympics

[edit]

The swimming competitions at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris were held from 27 July to 9 August 2024. There were 35 swimming events in the pool and two marathon swimming events in the open water. France's Léon Marchand won all four individual events he entered at the Games. Four world records were broken, by: Pan Zhanle in the men's 100 m freestyle, Bobby Finke in the men's 1500 metre freestyle, and team United States in the women's 4 × 100 metre medley and mixed 4 × 100 metre medley relays.

I started working on these a while ago with the intention of making the set a good topic. I learned so much over this process. Massive thanks to my GA reviewers: DaniloDaysOfOurLives (28 reviews!), Stevie fae Scotland, Riley1012, PCN02WPS, Arconning and Sammi Brie, and FLC reviewers: Bgsu98, History6042 and Arconning.

Comment - I know this is not the place to make suggestions, but it's very very strange that there is not a single picture of any of the racers in any of these articles. The articles are very well done, but this is really a critical absence. I would suggest, at the very least, the gold medalist(s) photograph should be included (perhaps in the "final"s subheadings?). Ideally all 3 medalist photos should be present. Mattximus (talk) 01:02, 27 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be happy to do this. The reason I did not do so was partly because they didn't seem entirely relevant to the subject of the article (the race), and because most of the photos are so old. IAWW (talk) 07:32, 27 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Green Bay Packers presidents (1st supplementary nomination)

[edit]

This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Green Bay Packers presidents for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:

  1. Ed Policy

Ed Policy recently achieved WP:GA status. He is assuming the presidency of the Packers on July 13 after the retirement of Mark Murphy. Looking for supports in the lead-up to him taking the lead, but noting that the nomination shouldn't be passed until after July 13, when he formally takes over. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:56, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
