Community areas in Chicago
I know this is a bit ambitious and a long shot, but I was wondering if these articles themselves would be enough to make a Good or Featured Topic, or would there need to be additional material such as Neighborhoods in Chicago? FWIW, all these articles have the navbox {{Community areas of Chicago}} in common. Thanks! – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 07:32, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

- John M Wolfson, this looks perfect! That would be amazing if many of these were brought up to GA! That's absolutely fair to do a topic of the officially-defined areas: there are far too many neighborhoods, many of which are appropriately just sections of the community area articles anyway.

@Wikiman5676, Vami IV, Paul 012, Joshua Jonathan, Javierfv1212, Chiswick Chap, and JimRenge:, comments are welcome.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 15:53, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, why not. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:54, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks. Chiswick Chap! I am having doubts about the main title index article, Ten Principal Disciples. Not sure if it is notable enough.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 16:01, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- "... of Buddha"? Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:03, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Farang Rak Tham, good idea. Like Chiswick Chap I prefer Ten Principal Disciples of Buddha. JimRenge (talk) 17:37, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Fixed, thanks. Still, the question remains as to whether Ten Principal Disciples is a sufficiently notable topic.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 23:20, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

- Yes. Absolutely. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 01:24, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- I have done my own assessment of the start-class biographies listed and found all but one to be C-class. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 12:10, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Much appreciated, Vami_IV!--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 07:14, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Vami_IV How about the main index article, Ten Principal Disciples? Is that still at start level, you think?--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 12:08, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Oop, hadn't thought to check that one. C-class. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 20:03, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Operas by Claudio Monteverdi

If those more familiar with the process could assist: After Gerda Arendt and I recently got List of operas by Claudio Monteverdi to FL, a featured topic with Monteverdi's operas seems like the next step. The opera articles were all brought to FA by Brianboulton, who has since passed away. Should Monteverdi's article itself be included, as it is FA? We spoke with the main contributor other than Brian, Smerus, and he was unsure as well. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Aza24 (talk) 21:51, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
- No- The topic as listed is "Operas by Claudio Monteverdi", and Monteverdi himself is not one of those operas. The status of any given article does not affect whether it is in a topic. Monteverdi would need to be the lead article to be included, and that won't work as the non-opera articles aren't GA+. That said, while I'd be fine with it, it should be noted that you're excluding two child articles of L'Orfeo, which is a little suspect on a 6-article topic. --PresN 15:33, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
- @PresN: Leaving Monteverdi out sounds good to me, thanks for your input. I certainly wasn't cherry picking in this topic and purposely leaving the List of items and Possente spirto out. I would be hesitant to promote and then include them since, as you say, they are not one of Monteverdi's operas. My assumption is that they would be more appropriate as a subtopic of L'Orfeo.

Could this potentially qualify as a good topic? There is not really a main page for these games, but they are all still heavily related. How do I approach this as I am new to this part of Wikipedia.(Oinkers42) (talk) 18:50, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
- @(Oinkers42): it needs an actual main article to start with. GamerPro64 15:10, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
- Potentially the series article could be used. (Oinkers42) (talk) 15:26, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
- Then you would be missing articles if you are using the series articles. The Genesis series are all part of the same series and there is no article on the 3D games. GamerPro64 17:00, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
- In that case, I would probably just wait to propose it. All of the Genesis console games, plus Sonic Mania are all featured or good articles. That just leaves Sonic 4 Episode 1 and episode 2 to become good or featured and that finishes the main games in the series. (Oinkers42) (talk) 19:32, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
- So, it is now four; Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit video game), and Sonic Chaos. Everything else is either good or featured. (Oinkers42) (talk) 20:27, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
