	I think we should start referring to peer review articles which clearly won't make it to FA this round (i.e. numerous objections).

Peer Review is not the appropriate place for all types of requests. As stated in the ], requests for ], ], ], or ] should be sent to the locations set up for those functions. Due to the differing natures of PR and FAC, a discussion moved directly from FAC without appropriate context looks very much like a content dispute.

			I would not call a typical hurricane article a science article. For sure, meteorology is a science, and there's plenty you can write about hurricanes in general which is about the science. But most of these are just cookie-cutter recitations of the specific facts about events that happen dozens of times a year. What was the track, where it made landfall, pressure readings, wind strengths, rainfall, damage caused. That's not science, that's just a data dump wrapped up in prose form with carefully formatted references. ] ] 19:11, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

			::Just addressing the elephant (hurricane writer) in the room, I kind of agree, that hurricane articles aren't really "science". In fact, as a hurricane writer, I make attempts to make it hurricane articles not appear too scientific, so it is accessible to the average reader. This isn't about a ] or a ] where you talk about years of research and tons of research papers. No, instead we rely on "pressure readings, wind strengths, rainfall", all different tools to describe what actually happened, and why a single storm affected so many different people. Sometimes storms can even cause wars and disrupt national economies, but they're such short-lived events, that it's not like they're an ongoing thing worthy of significant research, not when a lot of storms are honestly pretty similar. They all do very similar things, with some slight variations. That's why I find them fascinating, and why I write about them, and I'm not going to stop writing about them since I think the vast majority of tropical cyclone articles are useful and interesting. But they aren't exactly "science", like some kind of hypothesis or idea, and admittedly there should probably be more articles on the study of meteorology. I'm gonna have to do something about that... ♫ ] (<small>]</small>) 22:16, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
			:Removing my comments for now. Will post again when I've had more time to think about the content. Apologies. ]] 00:41, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
	:Yes, I agree, or second that, or whatever is appropriate. I ''actively'' visited peer review a few days ago, where I spent time looking through quite thoroughly and also made comments on a couple of articles. It seems to be quite a different place from FAC. In PR, some articles get almost no response (unlike the vast majority of FACs, which do), and more importantly, more general improvement suggestions are often offered (not a detailed critique based on specific FA criteria). I don't imagine everyone going to PR is grooming for an FA star. While a trip through PR can't be bad for a future FAC, moving ("dumping") a FAC on PR, especially with FAC reviews intact, seems to be more of a way to sweep away procedural FAC problems (into another WP area), than improve the article or be "kind" to the nominators. For me, that sends some kind of mixed and bureaucratic message to both reviewers and nominators: if an article comes to FAC, it should be reviewed according to the criteria by the editors on hand, with consensus fairly observed and decisions made clear when requested, and that's that. Hope that's helpful input... --] 16:27, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
			== Seattle Kraken nom ==
	::My recent experience with the ] article was that PR provided very little input - there were only two comments - both of which essentially suggested a rewrite of the introductory paragraph. Contrast that with FAC which has provided a ton of valuable copyedit type changes and a rich set of advice that would have been valuable at the PR stage, IMHO, this is the reverse of how it should be. The nit-picking and layout/linking/references advice should be given in PR - and FAQ should just be a test of whether the quality is good enough or not...essentially just an up or down vote on something that's already been nit-picked to death. Right now, what we have is two stages of peer-review - the second of which is tangled up with the voting process. The ''mechanism'' we have in place is a good one - the problem is that the super-star ace reviewers all hang out in the prestigious FAC and don't spend time in PR where their help would be most valuable. IMHO, articles should be ''required'' to go through PR before FAC ''and'' to pass out of PR via the 'two weeks with no input' rule rather than the 'article still not fixed after a month in PR' rule. Thus, any article that gets into FAC would likely be a great article already and people who just dump garbage articles into FAC would have to wait out at least two weeks in PR and actively work to resolve problems - significantly raising the barrier to people just trying for notoriety. ] 16:58, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

	::I agree that articles should need to be on PR (i.e. I agree with SteveBaker) before being nominated. That should cut down on the number of FAC nominations considerably, all of them being ones that were never ready to begin with. I don't think it would considerably dis-encourage the active FACers that wouldn't nominate an article that wasn't at least reasonably close -- most of us wait out the two weeks on PR now, even if no comments are forthcoming, and by separating out more of the chaff from the wheat, the whole process will be quicker. ] 00:35, 16 March 2006 (UTC) ''via edit conflict with Cedars''

	I have no problem with people submitting their failed or failing FAC to peer review if they are committed to improving the article. After all improving articles is what peer review is for. But it is poor form to simply quote the FAC nomination verbatim - a mere link to the FAC nomination would be much less distracting and serve the same purpose. Equally someone else moving the nomination to peer review serves little purpose unless the person moving the article is committed to improving the article themselves. Firstly because the original submitter may not be aware of where their nomination has been moved to. And secondly because we have no evidence that the submitter would follow through with peer review's recommendations. Some people decide to have-a-shot at a FAC but are not really committed to improving the article, it is wrong of those working with FACs to simply start offloading such people on the peer review page (which is what I was referring to when I talked about dumping). Peer review's resources are limited and are much better focused towards those articles where it can make a difference (because there is an active contributor willing to work on improvements).

	Peer reviewing an article is an intensive process, I would argue more-so than the FAC process.

If they are not it is a waste of time. And after a failed FAC there are plenty of suggestions that need to be implimented before another PR would be helpful. I do however support removing FACs that do not have a snowballs chance, so readding them to FAC isn't helpful either.

	I believe that the mechanisms of PR are OK - the problem is that there aren't enough people (or sufficient capable people) working there. How else can one explain the large number of trivial editing problems that are found in FAC even AFTER an article has been PR'ed? If things worked as they should, PR would have removed all of the little issues with articles - and FAC could address the big-picture matters such as "Does the article cover the material? Is it encyclopedic?" - and would essentially just be an up/down vote. If that system was actually ''working'', then PR would be an almost essential thing for an article heading for FAC. The root problem is that it ''isn't'' working. Far too many trivial problems are being found in articles that have '''passed'' PR through no comments after 2 weeks. ] 14:13, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

			!Reviewer
	If I may make a recommendation (in fact, I think I will), can we add hidden text at the top of the FAC page to remind editors, before adding, that it meets basic FAC requirements? Currently, the hidden text just says, "Add new nominations at the top of the list immediately below." However, it we added one or two more lines which said something along the lines of, "Before adding your nomination, please ensure that the article has references, incline citations, and has been given a proper copyedit for grammar and point of view. Also, you might wish to consider Peer Review as an option before listing an article below".

			! data-sort-type="number" |Source
	A lot of the nominations are by fans of a particular rock group, author, etc., and not by prior contributors to an article. As well, although the rules of what should be in a FAC is at the top of the article, I don't believe many nominators read this. We receive a lot of nominations which say "I believe this meets all featured article guidelines" and then don't have a single reference. Perhaps they'd be more likely to read this hidden text as they get ready to nominate their article, and then they could reconsider the nomination or perhaps move it to Peer Review first.

	Just a long, wordy suggestion. --] 20:52, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

	:I like it. I agree that a lot of people who nominate articles are fans who think the subject "deserves" to be featured, and even though the link to the requirements is in the intro, it's obviously not being clicked by enough nominators. Adding this request in hidden text certainly wouldn't hurt. ] 21:03, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

	''Crossposted to ]''<br>

	I'm banning ] from ] for three weeks from today for bad behavior and bullying of voters on . EE, "banned" means that you mustn't nominate pages nor take part in discussions of pages you have contributed to. If you do, you can be blocked by any admin, first for 24 hours and then progressively for longer. But I hope you won't. Please instead learn something from this about the culture the community wants on FAC. Don't, when you return, try again to force articles through FAC by wearing down the opposition. You'll be welcome back if you resolve to be courteous to Oppose voters, and above all, if you change your mindset to trying to fix, and learn from, objections, rather than trying to argue them into the ground.

	Remember that you'll be free to work on improving articles during those three weeks. If you wish, you may also vote support or oppose on other FACs, that you have not edited, but please make sure you don't abuse this concession in any way. If you use it to post disruptively or in bad faith on FAC, you'll be blocked. Oh, and if you try to get round any of this by using sockpuppets, you'll be in ''real'' trouble. ] | ] 21:59, 20 March 2006 (UTC).
			{{@FAC}} What is the status of ]? Gog the Mild promoted it, FrB.TG ] for a spotcheck. , and I am not sure if what Hurricanehink mentioned is a spotcheck. ] (]) 16:19, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
	:Per ], I reverted all of the edits left by anonymous editors because I felt as though they were vandals who were attempting to distort the discussion, and both edits were ''not'' to avoid the controversy surrounding the article. Both users Bcrowell and Tsavage should have edited while accessing their accounts because other registered contributers may or may not know, such as in this case, where I did not know that the actual editors had written the comments. I feel as though my edits were in good faith, and I do not feel that is definitely based on previous accusations of being ] (which ] is able to back me up on). I would also appreciate it if ] did not analyze my every move, which she has obviously been doing. I've notified other administrators. &mdash;] | ] 22:56, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
	::Do you see any mention of Hollow Wilerding in my ban message? No. Do you see any mention of Tsavage or Bcrowell? No. You're the one that keeps going on about Hollow Wilerding, as if you insist on being identified with her. For my part I don't care who you are, only how you behave. Please don't, in your rebuttals of accusations I have not made, miss the actual reasons for your ban. They're important. You've been banned for bad behavior and bullying of voters, for trying to force articles through FAC by wearing down the opposition, for not trying to fix or learn from objections but instead trying to argue them into the ground, and for disrespecting the FAC culture. I'll add, though, that neither the letter nor the spirit of ] has any encouragement to revert people's edits because you "felt as though they were vandals". On the contrary, you're supposed to be extremely slow and cautious to assume vandalism. ] | ] 00:37, 21 March 2006 (UTC).
	:::Ridiculous. I absolutely did not "try and force the FAC through by wearing down the opposition". Where do you get off at? How do you know this? Do you have any proof of such an accusation? Please indicate where I was bullying the voters, when I was the one being accused of voting on other FACs for poor judgement of quality and whatever else they had mentioned. "Disrespecting the FAC culture" is incredibly vague &mdash; there is a culture here that I'm not following? Could you someone please point me in the direction of a guideline because I didn't read up on such thing. The ] step was the most logical step to take because when IP addresses edit an FAC because the process is supposed to be concise and productive. I can't "assume" that they are the editors expanding their votes; this is why we have registered accounts. Again, I believe that you've conducted such an action due to your belief of my true identity and will continue to stand by what I believe until you refrain from spreading the rumours. Apparently ] ] ] (which likely includes other whom I have not been acquainted with) are also aware of the situation. Why do you persist in following me? If I was not related to Hollow Wlerding in even the most vague way, I believe that you would not have conducted such a confusing action. We are all humans on Misplaced Pages, all the same users editing the same articles, and there is nothing that I acknowledge of which I did incorrectly by breaking any "culture" or "standards". &mdash;] | ] 03:06, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
			== Input from FA-experienced editors requested regarding quality of an existing featured article ==
	:*Well, that's the problem when the FAC subject matter deals with fandom; you'll get the most ardent support and the most ardent tearing down of opposition, whether attacking the objector or the objection. I took a cursory reading of the FAC, and all I can say is that Eternal is trying very hard to tear down any opposition while addressing the issues very minimally. That being said, however, I think banning for three weeks is too drastic, maybe a few days or a reprimand is enough, just as a warning to fancruft. And plus, bishonen, if you think he's rude, considering reading Bulbasaur FAC a few weeks ago, in which the supporters did exactly what the supporters here did: wearing and tearing down the opposition while addressing the issues minimally. The objectors were called "preposterious," "ridiculous," and one was threatened to be called names (which is equivalent to calling names actually) ] 03:29, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	:::Temporary account, I don't profess to follow all the nominations; I haven't been following Bulbasaur. If people who have been doing that have seen behavior as bad and as persistent as on ] (and, note, on previous nominations by the same users), from editors who have been extended this much patience by Raul and the community, then they might want to try to initiate action, the way I've done.
	:::About the three weeks, I'm glad you brought it up: it sounds long, and being banned for three weeks from contributing to say an article would ''be'' long: but consider the contribution pattern to FAC, with normally some weeks between each nomination. Indeed, EE's first response to me implied that a mere three weeks wouldn't even inconvenience her! It's this contribution pattern I was thinking of when I made it three weeks—I agree that a few days would have been the way to go if it had been a question of banning from an article, or, say, WP:ANI. ] | ] 09:28, 21 March 2006 (UTC).
	::::Well, for my part, I have not been trying to wear anyone down on any FAC in which I participate. If I raise objections, I expect to see them addressed or reasons given why they are not valid; if someone raises objections with which I disagree, I may point out why I think the objections are not valid. But the recent trend towards long-drawn-out debates on FAC over contentious nominations have not, to my mind, been entirely satisfactory, particularly the increase in ''ad hominem'' attacks on objectors or people who comment on objections. All we need is "this is why I am objecting" and "this is why I think you are right/wrong". I hope the short summary that I added to the top of the Bulbasaur FAC was helpful as way of crystallising the points of contention in a neutral manner (perhaps this would be a helpful approach for other contentious FACs?). -- ] ] 11:21, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	:The behavior in this case was outrageous, so I'm fine with the three weeks after thinking about it. Good faith edits are never vandalism, so reverting them is not right, even moreso given it should have been obvious who was making the comments. Beyond that we should have civility and cooperation, not this type of brow beating. - ] <sup><small>]</small></sup> 13:06, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	How on earth can Bish just decide this herself? I don't agree with it. If EE would like to nominate any other articles for FAC, or express anything about a nom (replying to a vote, for instance, or notifying voters of some change in the article), I would be happy to act as a proxy for that if he or she would like. ] 14:19, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	:I'm not sure why you would try to defend EE's actions (or if you really are I guess), but acting as a proxy would be perfectly acceptable since you likely wouldn't have the same emotional investment in the issue and could keep the discussion civil and productive. - ] <sup><small>]</small></sup> 15:15, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	::Per ], "Everyking is prohibited from making comments on non-editorial actions taken by other administrators other than on the administrator's talk page, a Request for comment, or a Request for arbitration." I have removed his violation of this ruling above. &mdash;] (]) 15:43, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	:::] | ] 16:03, 21 March 2006 (UTC).
	::::The user is not, in my opinion, actually banned from anything. A ban from FAC would require a general agreement on the part of the community or a decision from the ArbCom. So I think this "ban" is more like a kind of bullying than anything legitimate. I would not want to help anybody violate a legitimate ban, but I have no problem helping someone outmanoever some bullying. ] 19:39, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
	:::Thank you, and muchly ]. It is users like yourself who at least ''attempt'' analyzing the situation that make me want to continue editing on this website. ] and every other user who has responded to this section of FAC talk has failed to answer each of my questions, however, which I'm finding to be a trend on Misplaced Pages (especially with administrators).
	:::#What is the "FAC culture"? I have not heard of this and would appreciate it if I was directed to a policy/guideline page.
	:::#Once again, please prove that I had attempted to "disrupt the FAC process by tearing down the opposition for the FAC to pass through" &mdash; that sentence is directly inserting words into my mouth and filled with assumption. How do you know this? Are you physic and capable of reading my brain? No. I was trying to compromise the opposition by disagreeing with them and mentioning how they were either essential or irrelevant to the article. This is ''by no means'' tearing down the opposition.
	:::#If you are convinced that I did something incorrectly, you ] have currently ''not'' told me what it was. You're telling me to come here and read the message you left and to improve my behaviour once the three weeks expires. I read it over but believe that I did not violate any "culture" that is concerned with the FAC. I cannot be expected to "improve my behaviour" if I do not know what I did that was inappropriate. This means that I may conduct the same errors in the future, so you should post what you believe was not right. If not, then this ban is illogical.
	:::#I'm sorry if this sounds a bit demanding, but I do not expect to be referred to as "female" when I am male. I'm sure you would be upset if your gender was mistakened. Just to let everybody know, I am male.
	:::I would like answers to these questions, which have primarily been ignored. &mdash;] | ] 20:47, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
			I would appreciate input at ]. This is one of my earliest FACs, and I would appreciate some additional thoughts to make sure I'm not being too harsh on myself; this one isn't really up to my current standard. ] <sub> '']''</sub> 04:04, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
	Everyking, I now regret restoring your comment that Bunchofgrapes had very properly removed as being a violation of Everyking 3, since you immediately started to encroach further on the strength on it. When will I ever learn, eh? You must have missed where I said "I'm not suggesting it as precedent". By repeatedly attacking my actions on this page you're repeatedly violating the arbcom remedy that BofG quotes. As for you, EE, no, I'm not going to be sucked into the black hole of your ruleslawyering. The mistake Opposers on FAC have been making is that they've been spending the best years of their lives trying to deal with just the kind of bad-faith questions that your post above exemplifies, but that's not going to happen with me. I'm sorry you wouldn't notice the FAC culture if it jumped up and bit you on the ass—that you understand the notion of a culture so little that you ask to be directed to a policy/guideline page for it! I'm sorry I referred to you as female, it was unintentional; I do believe you're male. For my part, I resent having the garbled "quote" "disrupt the FAC process by tearing down the opposition for the FAC to pass through" put into my mouth; that's your English, not mine. My gender gets mistaken all the time and I don't give a piss. ] | ] 22:32, 21 March 2006 (UTC).

FAC reviewing statistics and nominator reviewing table for October 2024

Here are the FAC reviewing statistics for October 2024. The tables below include all reviews for FACS that were either archived or promoted last month, so the reviews included are spread over the last two or three months. A review posted last month is not included if the FAC was still open at the end of the month. The new facstats tool has been updated with this data, but the old facstats tool has not.

Science articles are underrepresented

For a long time there has hardly been any science articles at FAC. Perhaps someone could remind me of the last successful candidate? But we have one at FAC now which is not garnering much attention, which is a shame. I'm not canvassing for support, despite having given mine, but is there any chance of a few reviews? Graham Beards (talk) 14:59, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

I'll try to take a look within the next couple days, although I've got quite a bit going on IRL. Hog Farm _Talk 16:18, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Ditto. I'll have time to review this weekend. I can take on the source review as well if no one beats me to it (please feel free to beat me to it). Ajpolino (talk) 15:39, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Not sure if it was the most recent, but off the top of my head there was Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/Lise Meitner/archive1 not that long ago (if biography articles on scientists count). TompaDompa (talk) 16:29, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Right now we have Otto Hahn being reviewed. Plus of course Virgo interferometer, at which additional thoughts would be most welcome. I assume that science is being used in a way which excludes biology and geology? Gog the Mild (talk) 16:43, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

I believe Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/Hurricane Dennis/archive1 counts as a science article, no? It has seven participants but only one review and is at risk of being archived. Adding onto that, it is a former featured article, which should be getting more views, especially because of its notable impacts in the Greater Antilles and the United States. _ZZ'S 16:43, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Using a broad definition of science, and not counting biographies, I think there have been five promoted this year (dates in brackets).

• Heptamegacanthus (26 Aug)
• Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (25 Aug)
• Dracunculiasis (22 May)
• Prostate cancer (22 Apr)
• Tropical Storm Hernan (2020) (7 Jan)

My apologies for any I missed. We need more. Graham Beards (talk) 17:02, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

You missed Hurricane Cindy (2005). Its nomination was successfull on 27 September. I'm still surprised that a less notable, damaging, and deadly storm was promoted, but Hurricane Dennis, the opposite, is at a significant risk of being archived. _ZZ'S 17:07, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

There is also Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/Socompa/archive1. That said, the reason why I am no longer writing many articles is because they need to be updated and my queue has just become too long. I think that's the general problem with science FAs, science isn't static in time so they become outdated. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:58, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

That's the case with many articles, not just science ones. If FAs are maintained, this should not be a problem. Also, many science articles are remarkably static. See Maxwell's equations, which is not a FA, but a good example of a stable science article. Graham Beards (talk) 11:07, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Aye, I know about Wōdejebato and relatives which also don't get much new research. I guess I just used up my space of "how many articles can I maintain" Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 11:35, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

I think Bonn–Oberkassel dog (Aug 8) counts as a science article. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 16:17, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

I would not call a typical hurricane article a science article. For sure, meteorology is a science, and there's plenty you can write about hurricanes in general which is about the science. But most of these are just cookie-cutter recitations of the specific facts about events that happen dozens of times a year. What was the track, where it made landfall, pressure readings, wind strengths, rainfall, damage caused. That's not science, that's just a data dump wrapped up in prose form with carefully formatted references. RoySmith (talk) 19:11, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Yes I agree, was thinking the same. Just because a hurricane comes about due to scientific phenomena does not make discussion of individual hurricanes scientific per se. We might as well argue Taylor Swift is science because she's made up of atoms, molecules, cells, mitochondria and all the rest of it 😏  — Amakuru (talk) 00:53, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Just addressing the elephant (hurricane writer) in the room, I kind of agree, that hurricane articles aren't really "science". In fact, as a hurricane writer, I make attempts to make it hurricane articles not appear too scientific, so it is accessible to the average reader. This isn't about a proton or a black hole where you talk about years of research and tons of research papers. No, instead we rely on "pressure readings, wind strengths, rainfall", all different tools to describe what actually happened, and why a single storm affected so many different people. Sometimes storms can even cause wars and disrupt national economies, but they're such short-lived events, that it's not like they're an ongoing thing worthy of significant research, not when a lot of storms are honestly pretty similar. They all do very similar things, with some slight variations. That's why I find them fascinating, and why I write about them, and I'm not going to stop writing about them since I think the vast majority of tropical cyclone articles are useful and interesting. But they aren't exactly "science", like some kind of hypothesis or idea, and admittedly there should probably be more articles on the study of meteorology. I'm gonna have to do something about that... ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:16, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Seattle Kraken nom

Hello there. A couple months back, I nominated the article Seattle Kraken for FA, but after five weeks, it didn't get the needed amount of reviews, and the nomination was subsequently closed. I nominated it again 11 days ago and it still hasn't received any reviews. Any reasons why? Thanks. XR228 (talk) 02:28, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

To be honest, the usual cause is that lots of people are reluctant to post 'oppose' reviews. Nick-D (talk) 07:30, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

I think in this particular case it might be the topic. Popular culture doesn't fare brilliantly for FAC reviewers, and sports are even more niche (in that just liking 'sport' isn't enough, rather the sport itself). The article itself isn't in bad nick as it goes; no major MOS violations jump out, everything's cited, sources all seem OK, if news heavy (but that's probably inevitable for a relatively young team like this). SerialNumber54129 12:23, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Also, i forgot to mention that you're allowed—encouraged—to page reviewers who took part in the early FAC... SerialNumber54129 13:25, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Another reason might be that you haven't reviewed any articles at FAC, according to the FAC statistics tool. Reviewing articles helps editors learn the FA criteria, shows that you understand the criteria, and builds goodwill among editors. If looking for reviews, I always recommend reviewing articles yourself. Z1720 (talk) 12:55, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Echoing this, particularly the "goodwill among editors" bit. Reviewing takes time, and I'm more willing to take that time to help someone who has invested in the FAC process. Note that when Graham Beards asked for volunteers a couple sections above, folks jumped in to review. If you're wondering why, feast your eyes on Graham's reviewing stats and imagine the kind of goodwill the guy has stockpiled. Ajpolino (talk) 20:20, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

One caveat here is that we don't want "I'll support/oppose your article if you support/oppose mine"-type situations. Each article needs to be reviewed dispassionately. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 13:18, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

RfC at WT:BLP

Japanese and Farsi/Persian speakers needed

There are two FAC reviews where the source spotcheck hinges on Japanese and Farsi/Persian sources.

Anyone who knows how to read them? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 13:17, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Google Lens' translate function is quite good these days for translating pictures of documents. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:22, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Strikethrough error

There appears to be some sort of error in one of the FACs as several of the listings in the "Older nominations" section have all their comments displayed with a strike-through. I was wondering if there was any way to have that fixed? I am guessing that it is an issue with one of the FAC that is bleeding out into the other FACs on the list.

FAC reviewing statistics and nominator reviewing table for November 2024

Here are the FAC reviewing statistics for November 2024. The tables below include all reviews for FACS that were either archived or promoted last month, so the reviews included are spread over the last two or three months. A review posted last month is not included if the FAC was still open at the end of the month. The new facstats tool has been updated with this data, but the old facstats tool has not.
