Once Upon a Time in the West

 * This is a level 5 vital article about one of the most acclaimed films of all time. There are definitely some parts of this article that could be improved to make this article more on par with the page for The Good, the Bad and the Ugly for example.

Co-curricular activity (Singapore)
Utopes (talk / cont) 16:32, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Even though this article has 86 daily hits, it is ranked "Mid" in the Importance scale of WikiProject Singapore and it is useful to other people who wants to learn more about CCAs in Singapore.  Brachy 08  (Talk)  (Contribs)  12:13, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, article doesn't have lots of hits or high notability. SVcode ( Talk ) 23:12, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

History of geography
✅ Utopes (talk / cont) 16:26, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * This level-4 vital article is currently rated as a "C" class. It has at least one section with a maintenance tag for more sources, and needs some work to expand beyond a western perspective. Significant room for improvement. GeogSage ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 22:12, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Pah-Ute County
Snowball's chance, Utopes (talk / cont) 16:30, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * High Importance within WP:Nevada, Slides over the 200 rule,start class (Barely even 3 paragraphs.) And most likely non-controversial based off of the No-IP block. Danubeball (talk) 04:32, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Support, high enough hits plus article needs expansionn. SVcode ( Talk ) 21:59, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Support - Looks good to go. And project can definitely help.BabbaQ (talk) 07:58, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose, as the pageviews have shrunk from 240 daily average to 7 daily average. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:31, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose not enough attention now. GeogSage  ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 21:31, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

1912 Ottoman general election
Snowball's chance, Utopes (talk / cont) 16:26, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I know that this article is not very widely read, yet it is still worthy of being an AFI because this election was nicknamed "Sopalı Seçimler" (Election of Clubs), the CUP controlled the Chamber of Deputies afterwards and the article is Start-rated. --RekishiEJ (talk) 13:00, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, this article doesn't seem particularly noteworthy. There are lots of elections in lots of countries. GeogSage ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 22:16, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 2) Support - needs projects help.BabbaQ (talk) 00:34, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

1914 Ottoman general election
Snowball's chance, Utopes (talk / cont) 16:27, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Because this article isn't unimportant (a general election in a former empire), and is start-rated, it ought to be an AFI. --RekishiEJ (talk) 13:00, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, there were many elections in many former empires and this election isn't that special. SVcode ( Talk ) 22:55, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose, this article doesn't seem particularly noteworthy. GeogSage ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 22:15, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

List of Roblox games
Snowball's chance, Utopes (talk / cont) 16:27, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * This list has close to 500 hits, and has FL potential. —- Brachy 08  (Talk)  (Contribs)  01:21, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Support, this article needs more citations and has lots of hits. SVcode ( Talk ) 00:13, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose, is edited many times per week, and does not seem as if AFI needs to be used to bring attention to this article, when it already is being refined and is in a passable state as is (163 sources and no tags). FL promotion should be left to interested editors. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:43, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

 * 1) Support - Looks good to go.--BabbaQ (talk) 18:43, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose, receives regular updates as a highly popular topic, AFI does not need to draw attention to this article as it is being regularly improved. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:25, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose per Utopes. GeogSage ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 05:02, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Omid Scobie

 * Subject is notable, sigh, as has written two books on account of being a friend of the Duchess of Sussex and plenty of media coverage. However, the article at present is just PR and puff and might not be, as it were, entirely free of COI. Emmentalist (talk) 07:52, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

Snowball's chance, Utopes (talk / cont) 16:28, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose As the creator of the article, I would be interested to know why Emmentalist thinks there might be a Conflict of interest ("Conflict of interest (COI) editing involves contributing to Wikipedia about yourself, family, friends, clients, employers, or your financial and other relationships.") I haven't even read the book. Improvements would be welcome as more information about Scobie becomes available in reliable sources, but at the moment there is probably little that can be added.Southdevonian (talk) 10:23, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi, @Southdevonian Since you have an interest, your "oppose" isn't really in order. However, the article as it stands, and as it was created, contains many petty details which are mainly poorly sourced. The sources are not of themselves formally deprecated at Wiki but that list is not intended as exhaustive. A puff interview in Tatler in which the interviewee ('at home' style but sitting in a room which does not appear to be his own) references a pet is an example. I don't wish to haggle about why the article is so weak; it's simply obvious that it is. If it's marked for improvement people are more likely to come in and improve it. That all. All the best, Emmentalist (talk) 21:59, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Support, lots of hits along with the article needing expansion. SVcode ( Talk ) 01:56, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 2) Support - lots of hits. And indeed in need of projects help.BabbaQ (talk) 23:49, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose. Since the original nomination, the pageviews have jumped from an average of 300 daily views or so, up to a 18228 daily average (which is only going to keep climbing, views have been increasing nearly 10k per day up to a peak of yesterday at 100k views). The page is plenty long, has no tags, and the creator is present on Wikipedia, actively working on making the article better (along with the other 46 users listed as "recent distinct authors"). By the time this page gets hypothetically selected to be the Article for Improvement in a couple years' time, the current event surrounding this subject will have passed, and this article will surely be in a vastly different state compared to right now, if the heaps of editing activity continues on for another week or three. Tl;dr, AFI does not seem to be needed, as the author is clearly willing to actively improve the page, and I'm not sure what AFI is going to be able to do that isn't already occurring as we speak. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:55, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose per Southdevonian and Utopes. Its big daily views is from an obvious temporary spike, and it's hard to see that the article isn't already growing in a natural manner, being well attended to. It doesn't need AFI. Stefen Towers among the rest!   Gab • Gruntwerk 02:21, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Cynthia McKinney
Snowball's chance, Utopes (talk / cont) 16:28, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * This article is completely out of date, and is written in a completely non-encyclopedic manner that gives false credence to the conspiracy theories she has spread. Cpotisch (talk) 02:40, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Support Per nom.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:55, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Support, per AFI. SVcode ( Talk ) 23:30, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose, The article absolutely needs an informed CE but I don't think AFI is appropriate. --Wil540 art (talk) 03:44, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Support, per SVcode  Brachy 08  (Talk)  (Contribs)  02:41, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose, a B Class article with 100+ citations and receives very regular weekly/bi-weekly edits; I don't think AFI is going to be able to do much for it. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:37, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose per Utopes. Heavily cited, seems to cover major parts of her political career, and has content about her activities from recent years. It's also miscategorized here. Stefen Towers among the rest!   Gab • Gruntwerk 01:04, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 7) Oppose per Utopes and StefenTower. GeogSage  ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 04:59, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

ProPhoto RGB color space

 * This article is now considered vital at level 5, and is no doubt for art designers, yet it is a mere stub, meaning it should be an AFI.--RekishiEJ (talk) 17:27, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Support, important article in need of expansion. SVcode ( Talk ) 23:53, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Support - The project could really improve this article.BabbaQ (talk) 22:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 3) Support per nom. BorgQueen (talk) 08:35, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose, because I don't think there needs to be 4 RGB color space AFI noms for now, which could be undue weight and may drown out other topics. In general, 51 daily hits is already quite low, and this subject does not seem to be amazingly important. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:53, 15 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment - article nom received 3 Supports and by so should be accepted.--BabbaQ (talk) 15:08, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
 * "Registered members of the project may choose to override the bot at their discretion in instances where straight vote totals do not appear to reflect community consensus." Has not been accepted, and as it stands the community consensus is 3-1. This is not an urgent article to send through AFI and is too niche to the point where AFI won't help this page, much less the other five replicas on essentially the same topic. Typically this type of nomination would've been archived years ago, but after the removal of auto-archive, here we are. Utopes (talk / cont) 23:29, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Ronja, the Robber's Daughter
Snowball's chance. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:42, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
 * This article needs an expansion, and formatting help which this project could really help with doing. The article have had almost 25000 hits in eight days.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, AFI is not for writing a new article. Utopes (talk / cont) 16:31, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose, per Utopes, hits are high because of an current event associated with this article. After some time, hits may go down. SVcode ( Talk ) 22:09, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Classical Mongolian language
. It is a valid argument, snowball's chance of passing. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:41, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Though this article is definitely not widely read, this is not a valid argument against this proposal because from the 18th to the 20th it had been a standardized written language, and classical language are no doubt crucial to a certain extent.--RekishiEJ (talk) 13:00, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Support - per nom.--BabbaQ (talk) 11:01, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Snowball's chance. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:32, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
 * This article needs an expansion, and the project could really help with that. This newly created article have had about 5000 hits in eight days.  BabbaQ (talk) 21:28, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, AFI's purpose is for developing important pages that are often overlooked and could use a tune up, not for expanding the one sentence stub you created last week. Utopes (talk / cont) 16:35, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose, per above. SVcode ( Talk ) 22:16, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Winamp
2022 nomination no longer holds water, has been updated. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:46, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
 * This article, though B-rated, is actually flawed because it requires updating and the new features of Winamp 5.9 is not sufficiently stated.--RekishiEJ (talk) 17:27, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Support, even though it is B-class, it needs updating and expanding.  SVcode ( Talk ) 23:57, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose; 113 citations and is edited on a regular monthly basis. AFI is not going to be needed if its just for the sake of implementing the software's new features. There are severely underdeveloped articles out there which seem to be higher priority. Also the 5.9 bit is in the article now. Utopes (talk / cont) 04:18, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
