German Type UB I submarines
Good topic nom. I'm nominateing these 19 articles for GT status becasue they are all very well written and are very well covered. I hope that you all think the same.-- Coldplay Expért Let's talk  02:16, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Have you read any of the criteria? This nom misses about 4 articles, three of which are only B's; I couldn't find any prior notice left to the main contributor (even though he hasn't edited in 1.5 months); and the nominator doesn't appear to have made any contributions to the topic at all. Another quick withdraw. Nergaal (talk) 03:08, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I've made contributions to the main article. Sorry about the other two that are b-class. I didn't know that I had to nominate all of them. I guess that I'll have to withdraw the nom.-- Coldplay Expért Let's talk  03:11, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Nothing said that I had to nominate all of the articles that deal with the subject. So I left out the 2 B-class ones. When those are promoted, I'll nominate them into this topic as well. And in case you missed. I am the | largest contributor to the main article.-- Coldplay Expért Let's talk  03:20, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry. I missed the statment that I have to nominate all of them. No cherry picking.-- Coldplay Expért Let's talk  03:22, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Wait a second. The nom is for German Type UB I submarines. And since the 2 subs in question were in the Austro-Hungarian navy, should'nt they be in a seperate category? THis would save the nom fomr failing as all the other aticles are at GA status. I'll also have to remove the other AH subs that I did mention.-- Coldplay Expért Let's talk  04:11, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Looking at the main article, it lists the German UB 1 submarines as UB-1 through UB-17. Three of these were later transferred to different countries (and names)- UB-1, UB-8, and UB-15. I think that the fact that they were originally built as German UB-1 submarines means that they need to be included here. UB-1 and UB-15 are not GA, which means that this nomination is not promotable. Also, why is the nomination title "UE II" submarines? -- Pres N  06:22, 8 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Quickfail - nomination does not include all articles, no attempt to notify the main contributor to the topic either. Also, you may have more edits on the main article but you are certainly not the main contributor to it, Belhalla wrote it up to 30k and got it to GA and your edits since then have been plentiful but small - rst20xx (talk) 12:48, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
