✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 14:16, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

 * 2) Support per nom.--BabbaQ (talk) 23:32, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * 3) Neutral. I wouldn't say "plenty of room for improvement"—seemingly every instance lacking refs to GA standard has been tagged, and the fact that that hasn't turned the page into a tag-bombed mess is an indicator of how well-developed it is. But it's an important topic; hopefully is this is the AFI of the week, editors will plug some of the remaining gaps. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 17:35, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Egg
One of the most common and important organisms and is used for a variety of things. The article has a lot of potential, since it is currently C-class, a level 4 vital article, and has a cleanup banner on the top for verification. MasterMatt12(talk) 02:50, 11 January 2023 (UTC) ✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 23:49, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Support Important article that could use an AF nom. --Wil540 art (talk) 03:25, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
 * 2) Support Using this script, I'd say about half of this shockingly short article is unreferenced. Some of the current citations that we do have are a mess, and the lead looks very strange. This article is definitely in need of work. Unlimitedlead (talk) 12:39, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

Media literacy
Important topic with a poor lead and overly technical content. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 19:31, 11 March 2022 (UTC) ✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 23:50, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

 * 3) Support, this article has high hits and needs improvement. SVcode ( Talk ) 20:23, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose - Should be made identifiable and comprehendible at least to a basic level so it would truly benefit from the spotlight provided by this project, before consideration here. Rubbish computer may be correct. Honestly, I am surprised this was not draftified. — Godsy (TALK CONT ) 21:18, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose Article should be draftified Varedev2 (talk) 15:03, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose Not vital-y enough. — PerfectSoundWhatever  (t; c) 18:26, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
 * 7) Oppose, Too regional --Wil540 art (talk) 03:42, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

Defense (sports)
✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 23:51, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Color calibration
✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 22:55, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 * This topic is no doubt crucial, yet is rated Start-class, meaning it should be an AFI in spite of being not so popular among Wikipedia readers. --RekishiEJ (talk) 12:58, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Support An under-attended and understood topic. --Wil540 art (talk) 17:36, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Color management
✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 22:55, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

PNG
✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 22:55, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Because the article is problematic (lacking comparison of PNG with AVIF and WebP), it is no doubt vital (regarded vital at level 5, and very frequently used on the WWW nowadays), and being widely read on the Internet, it should be an AFI. --RekishiEJ (talk) 15:46, 12 December 2022 (UTC) added a statement 10:01, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Support Article has been tagged needing an update since 2021. Could benefit greatly from an AFI. --Wil540 art (talk) 00:25, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

DCI-P3

3dfx Interactive
✅ SVcode ( Talk ) 22:58, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The article, though C-rated, is actually quite problematic since it is tagged as having insufficient citations, an OR issue and requiring cleanup, and the company is crucial in the history of computer gaming and currently considered vital at level 5 (cf. Vital_articles/Level/5/Society_and_social_sciences/Politics_and_economics). --RekishiEJ (talk) 17:17, 25 October 2022 (UTC) added the fact that 3dfx is now regarded vital at level 5 03:06, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Philosophy
Highly important topics: Level 1 vital article and Top Importance to WikiProject Philosophy and Top Importance to Wikipedia Version 1.0 Editorial Team / v0.5 / Core. Interesting to the general public: 5.5K daily pageviews and one of the core concept of society. Needing of improvement: C-Class, Eastern Philosophy just links to the main article. Not targets of controversy: Stable edit history and Philosophy itself is not a target of controversy. So I think this article meets the AFI criteria and should be improved. Lallint ⟫⟫⟫  Talk  01:18, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Aladdin (BlackRock)
This topic is relevant to multiple categories. Due to its scope, and the sheer scale of the monetary assets it is involved with. I feel it should also receive higher importance in the WikiProjects it is listed in — currently it is a part of 4 WikiProjects, but is of Low importance for 3 and unranked in the last. Because of the above reasons, my opinion is that its importance should be increased by one tier in each WikiProject and potentially raised to High-importance in WikiProject Finance & Investment.Ooo Salt ooo (talk) 01:08, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Software program vital to the operations of financial and investment institutions including BlackRock, whose page has prominent links to it. As per the current page, this software is used to manage over $20 trillion annually, but it is a stub and information on the page is extremely out of date (it was last edited in December 2022). Considering Aladdin's vital role in the current global economy, it's important to have accessible information about it, especially since it seems that non-primary sources about the system are sparse on the Internet.
