American robin

 * Nominator(s): LegalSmeagolian (talk) 18:57, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

This article is about the American Robin, a medium-sized passerine bird of the true thrush native to the Americas. This article has been a GA for a very very long time and meets the FA criteria. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 18:57, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

Question from Tim O'Doherty
@ - have you ever edited this article? Tim O&#39;Doherty (talk) 20:44, 26 March 2024 (UTC)


 * No, I have watched it grow and develop over the years though as robins are my favorite bird - I think it has reached the level where it could be a FA. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 21:13, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * OK. Have you contacted any major contributors prior to this nomination, per WP:FAC? Tim O&#39;Doherty (talk) 21:14, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
 * ooooooops. Happy to withdraw the nomination under the direction of a FAC coordinator and resubmit once the major contributors have been contacted. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 21:19, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

I do not think that the article is as comprehensive as required by the FA criteria. For example, the "Behavior" section misses many aspects, including antagonistic behavior, territoriality, sexual behavior, roosting etc. I strongly suggest to list the article at WP:Peer Review before bringing it to FAC. Feel free to ping me for more detailed comments or sources. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 22:48, 26 March 2024 (UTC) FrB.TG (talk) 07:28, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
