December nominations may now be made
As scheduling coordinator for December, I announce that nominations for any date through 31 December may now be made.--Wehwalt (talk) 12:34, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
Wells Cathedral
It's too late to do much about it now, but I think Wells Cathedral has issues which mean it shouldn't have been made TFA; I've raised some of these in a discussion on its talk page. It doesn't look like a vast amount of discussion took place here, and although @750h+ and @Serial Number 54129 mentioned issues and @Z1720 resolved to fix them, nobody seems to have checked that this had been completed before the article was approved.
The intent of this isn't to blame any editors in particular, and in fact I think a lot of work did go into the article in the run-up to today. It just seems worth flagging up this as an example of an article that wasn't quite up to scratch slipping through the cracks. A.D.Hope (talk) 22:22, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- That's a bit doubtful; imo the main problem was Z1720 extremely brutal "fixing", which the main author rather understandably reverted wholesale. If you're working on this sort of subject, you need to grasp the difference between art/architectural criticism and "promotional language". Some editors have difficulty doing this. Johnbod (talk) 18:23, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Johnbod: My edits to the article were reverted before this was TFA. It is not my version of the article that the editor thinks was not "up to scratch", so it's hard for me to agree that my edits caused the concerns. Z1720 (talk) 22:45, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, I didn't check the chrono, so apologies if this is the case. Johnbod (talk) 03:22, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

December
The December schedule will be found here. Nominations are still welcome and we'll adjust as need be. Wehwalt (talk) 13:21, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
New coordinator
As some of you may be aware, Dank has had to step back for health-related issues. We're hopeful that he can come back. In the interim, SchroCat has helped us, scheduling October and writing a large number of blurbs, and we'd like the community's approval to make him a coordinator. Dank will continue to be a coordinator, though somewhat on sabbatical right now. If he can return, we will each schedule a month in four, which would be welcome because it's a fair amount of work, if not, we'll either continue on with three schedulers or see if we can find someone else. Do we have the community's approval for SchroCat to join us as a coordinator? Wehwalt (talk) 17:54, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Support thanks for stepping up SchroCat. Z1720 (talk) 17:56, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Support, October was a fine job. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:58, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Appointments are retroactive nowadays, Wehwalt. SerialNumber54129 17:59, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- I've always felt strongly that the community needs to give approval, whether initially, or when being given permanent status. Wehwalt (talk) 18:20, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Agreed. - Dank (push to talk) 21:49, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
