Empty FGTC categories

edit

Hey there. I got a bunch of empty category speedy deletion notifications on my user talk today. They're related to featured/good topics. Has someone been renaming good topic or featured topic pages recently? Did they forget to fix the categories? Can someone help me investigate this? The empty categories are:

Looks like @Gonnym did some changes a couple days ago with the categories. -- ZooBlazer 21:25, 11 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
The categories were renamed, but because they are populated through a template parameter the bot carrying out the renames couldn't move them over to the new category and that needs to be done manually. Regards, Armbrust The Homunculus 18:00, 12 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Has someone done the manual part? Any further action needed to clean things up? –Novem Linguae (talk) 03:12, 21 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
At least in terms of the Marvel ones, things got kind of messy with the renaming, which should have been a discussion before things were renamed anyway. There is currently a discussion regarding things at the MCU task force WP, so if anything is done/undone you may or may not receive additional notifications, so sorry if that does happen. -- ZooBlazer 03:40, 21 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Got a couple more of these notices today:

Born Pink

edit

Thinking about making this WP:Good topics/Music for Born Pink. The reason is, some tracks for Born Pink, especially "Pink Venom", "Shut Down", and "Hard to Love" are good articles. Also, Born Pink is also the good article. Thus, per this criteria, this nominated topic could be listed. Sinsyuan✍️PJTW 06:28, 10 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

For Albums, meeting criteria 1d probably means all the tracks need to be Good Articles. CMD (talk) 06:48, 10 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

It appears in those two cases that the other songs on the albums (caveat that one appears to have bonus/international ones not included) don't have articles, however there seems to be articles for every Born Pink track. CMD (talk) 07:51, 10 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Oh, my goodneess! When each song for this album is created into Wikipedia article, it might be very tricky that all of which are forced to become good article in order to send to good topic. No matter there aren't any good topics for K-pop songs at present. Sinsyuan✍️PJTW 08:25, 10 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Also the concert tour supporting the album needs also be a good article. Regards, Armbrust The Homunculus 14:04, 11 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Oh, that why it is too difficult to promote. Sinsyuan✍️PJTW 02:14, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Admiral Robert Blake as featured article

edit

This man has had an incredibly interesting naval career and is almost unheard of. I feel like he is a good candidae for a featured article, as the page makes good reading and will educate many on a part of history very few know.

This isn't the right place. You can make a nomination at WP:FAC GiftedIceCream 14:35, 11 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Is the bot working?

Hi, saw that my nomination for the North East Line stations have been promoted but the bot doesn't seem to be working.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 05:43, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
