Oppose: I think the bands and accompanying musicians list should be included in a topic outlining Paul Kelly. It's one of the pages in the template which is specifically centred around Kelly's career. I also put all three of these articles in the above section of the template which is customary for music artists (e.g. David Bowie). Idiosincrático (talk) 14:37, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
1989 (album) (4th supplementary nomination)
This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/1989 (album) for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:
i created the article for i wish you would, and promoted it to ga status. fortunately, it still has the required amount of featured articles for this ft to remain as a featured topic. yay brachy08(chat here lol) 02:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I am curious which recent event made "I Wish You Would" suddenly notable, and why the same notability would not extend to songs like "How You Get the Girl" (whose Taylor's version charted two spots lower in Canada and nine in the US) and "I Know Places" (three spots lower in Canada and five in the US). It would be preferable not to delay those, if they are notable already, just because there aren't enough FAs for the topic to remain featured.--NØ 09:55, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hold for All You Had to Do Was Stay, which was GA-nominated just five days after the nomination. I would personally like to see the other two tracks on the standard edition join the topic together in the next addition. This really does not need to go through four different addition processes.--NØ 14:28, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wait – per above. Idiosincrático (talk) 12:19, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Now that both All You Had to Do Was Stay and I Wish You Would can be added, the topic can remain featured. @Brachy0008: is there any movement on the creation of "I Know Places" and/or "How You Get the Girl"? Is there a reason why these articles don't exist, are the songs not notable enough, or have the articles simply not been made? Idiosincrático (talk) 01:32, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
we haven't dug up sources for i know places and how you get the girl yet. furthermore, if they are made, there would be a bit more issues keeping this a featured topic. the plan is to get bad blood to FA, then create articles for both i know places and how you get the girl, so yes, those articles are being held back a bit. brachy08(chat here lol) 02:50, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
update: i created the draft for i know places. brachy08(chat here lol) 23:47, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Whether or not "How You Get the Girl" or "I Know Places" should have their standalone articles depends on notability. So far I think "I Know Places" may have its standalone article, not sure about "How You Get the Girl". Ippantekina (talk) 04:13, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support – although I don't really like the thought of holding the creation of new articles for the sake of a topic's status, I see that there is little motivation in creating these articles at the moment. As a result I support the nomination per the current collection of Wiki's articles, as I guess you can't oppose based on articles people can't or are unwilling to make (again it could be that these songs aren't notable enough to even have articles). I think in future, if there are more articles to make for a potential topic, a GTC discussion should probably be delayed until the new articles are created. Idiosincrático (talk) 14:06, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support - albeit we have to agree not every track is worth an article, specially those that need some extensive research to just get enough material to write about. Not that this subtracts from your dedication. igordebraga ≠ 02:28, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Seems all inclusive, and the supplemental nom makes sense. Don't really see a need for this to wait much longer. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:20, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
History of the National Hockey League
The history of the National Hockey League begins with the end of its predecessor league, the National Hockey Association (NHA), in 1917. After unsuccessfully attempting to resolve disputes with Eddie Livingstone, owner of the Toronto Blueshirts, executives of the three other NHA franchises suspended the NHA, and formed the National Hockey League (NHL), replacing the Livingstone team with a temporary team in Toronto, the Arenas. The NHL's first quarter-century saw the league compete against two rival major leagues—the Pacific Coast Hockey Association and Western Canada Hockey League—for players and the Stanley Cup. The NHL first expanded into the United States in 1924 with the founding of the Boston Bruins, and by 1926 consisted of ten teams in Ontario, Quebec, the Great Lakes region, and the Northeastern United States. At the same time, the NHL emerged as the only major league and the sole competitor for the Stanley Cup; in 1947, the NHL completed a deal with the Stanley Cup trustees to gain full control of the Cup. The NHL's footprint spread across Canada as Foster Hewitt's radio broadcasts were heard coast-to-coast starting in 1933.
It looks like there was support for a split and the draft is in good shape. Instead of being bold and moving the draft to main space myself, I've reached out to the draft creator here to see if they intend to move it to main space. They haven't edited in a few days, so we may need to be patient. Hey man im josh (talk) 11:25, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm one of the other editors on that draft, I've been meaning to port over content from Arizona Coyotes and Utah NHL team to fill out the currently-empty last section but haven't gotten around to it. Once that's done, the draft should be good to publish. The Kip (contribs) 17:43, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fully expanded the aforementioned section, improved coverage of Tampa Bay's B2B and added a section on Boston's record-breaking season as well. Let me know if anything else is needed. The Kip (contribs) 06:37, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just following up - @Hey man im josh, would I be good to move the draft to mainspace and perform the associated removals/page moves/template edits associated with doing so? Only issue is that 2017-present will then need to go through the GA process, which will hold up this FT nom. The Kip (contribs) 17:21, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@The Kip: I don't see any reason why not. There did seem to be a general consensus in favor of the split and it's well written, so I say shoot. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hey man im josh I've moved to mainspace and nominated it for GA in order to keep the ball rolling on this nom. I believe I've taken care of all the associated moves, edits, removals, etc - please let me know if I've missed anything. The Kip (contribs) 19:33, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hold – pending discussion and draft article status. Idiosincrático (talk) 03:15, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think the current list of articles is okay as they're the ones included in the NHL series template. By criteria 1.c, these articles are shared in a common template. There's probably an argument to make the series more sophisticated, but the articles you've mentioned could very well be compiled into other topics/series/templates. For example, the two television history articles could go under a National Hockey League on television lead with articles from the NHL on TV template. I just think the series template is clearly defined and this topic is a direct and complete representation of that, which is what we're after. Idiosincrático (talk) 14:59, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, the template and topic is clearly defined. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:22, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good topic nominations
E=MC² (Mariah Carey album)
E=MC² is the eleventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey, released on April 15, 2008. The album revealed a more personal side of the singer, illustrated in its declarative theme of emancipation from her previous marriage, and from her personal and professional setbacks. It was a follow-up to her tenth studio album, The Emancipation of Mimi (2005). Four singles were released to promote the album; the lead single, "Touch My Body", became Carey's eighteenth chart-topper on the Billboard Hot 100, tying her with Elvis Presley as the solo artist with the most number one singles in United States history, a record she has since surpassed.

Doctor Who specials (2023)
Three special episodes of the British science fiction television programme Doctor Who aired in November and December 2023 to celebrate the show's sixtieth anniversary. The specials saw the return of popular series stars Catherine Tate (Donna Noble) and David Tennant (Tenth/Fourteenth Doctors) for the first time since 2010 and 2013, respectively. These were also the first set of episodes to be produced with Bad Wolf and under a new co-production deal with the Walt Disney Company. This deal saw the addition of Disney+ as an original network and greater access for international distribution. Former showrunner Russell T Davies also returned to the programme beginning with these episodes. The three specials were preceded by a Children in Need mini-episode.
Over the last few months a number of us have improved the articles encompassing these specials to GA quality. This topic is a comprehensive set of notable episodes, which together meet the criteria listed at WP:GT? by having similar layouts and are connected through, links, categories, and templates. --TheDoctorWho(talk) 06:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hypericum sect. Adenotrias
Hypericum sect. Adenotrias is a section of flowering plants in the family Hypericaceae. It is made up of Hypericum aciferum, H. aegypticum, and H. russeggeri. Species in the section are shrubs up to 2 metres (6.6 ft) tall with smooth leaves and bark, and are the only species in Hypericum with heterostylous flowers. They are found around the Mediterranean coast, with H. aciferum restricted to the island of Crete and H. russeggeri present only in parts of Turkey and Syria. Plants of the section have a habitat among limestone and other calcareous rocks. While H. aegypticum has a wide and generally secure distribution, H. aciferum was evaluated as endangered several times since the 1980s although it is now considered only vulnerable because it is protected in part by a plant micro-reserve.
Similar to my previous topic nomination of Hypericum sect. Androsaemum, this is a topic on a small botanical section of plants in the genus Hypericum.

Fearless (Taylor Swift album)
Fearless is the second studio album by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, released on November 11, 2008. A country pop album, Fearless was inspired by Swift's adolescence and addresses love and heartbreak. The album has sold 12 million copies worldwide. In the United States, it spent 11 weeks atop the Billboard 200 and was certified Diamond.

Is there any reason you're not including the three tracks from the international album? They're actually all already promoted (1 FA, 2 GAs). Either way, I support since everything in scope appears to be promoted. Hey man im josh (talk) 10:53, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Panzer Dragoon series
Panzer Dragoon is a series of video games developed and published by Sega. The games are rail shooters, except for one role-playing game. Each follows a protagonist who rides an armored flying dragon, fighting human and monstrous enemies in a post-apocalyptic world. The Panzer Dragoon games have received positive reviews for their art design, visuals, sound design, and atmospheric settings. The series consists of four mainline games and one handheld spin-off.
All notable games in the series are now rated GA or FA, along with the series overview article. Thanks to Popcornfud, KGRAMR, and Folken de Fanel, who got the titles I didn't! --Bryan Rutherford (talk) 16:50, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hey man im josh I assume the ranking article is included in the category solely because the CFP rankings are listed there, since they don't have a separate article. As for the team season articles, I would argue against adding them because the playoff itself as an entity comprises just the games. While the teams, of course, do participate in the games, my instinct would be that the teams would not belong in this topic. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 02:26, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have a strong opinion either way, but I thought I'd ask to pick your brain on it a bit. I get your line of thinking and I do agree that technically it's a set if you're considering just the playoff structure. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:40, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support without ranking inclusion. The rankings in the category kinda throws it slightly out of whack. But it's clear that the articles listed only cover the play-off matches outlined in the template. Maybe you could make the topic more specific by titling it "2023–24 College Football Playoff games"?
