Elizabeth II

 * Notified: not done

I am nominating this featured article for review because this is one of the most viewed pages on Wikipedia and it hasn't been reviewed since 2012. I would like to get consensus on whether this still qualifies as a featured article. Interstellarity (talk) 12:17, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Interstellarity, have you listed your concerns on the article's talk page, as required in Step 1 of the instructions at the top of WP:FAR? And do you have any concerns wrt to the FA criteria? Nikkimaria (talk) 12:43, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The article has been kept to a reasonable length, great work. Issues immediately apparent from a quick scan:
 * image sandwiching, which should be easy to fix
 * 1 metro ref, not a good blp source
 * Should memoirs of other people be cited? It's not technically BLPSELFPUB but given that memoirs may have lower editorial oversight I would avoid it. I think better sources can be found to replace Thatcher & Trudeau refs if these details are actually important.
 * overreliance on news sources in place of higher-quality retrospective writings. There are some sources on Google Scholar that could be cited. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  13:13, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello @Nikkimaria,
 * The reason I nominated this is because it's been a while since the article has been reviewed. I don't have any concerns related to the article's content. I just think that since it's been a long time since the article has been reviewed and it's one of the most viewed pages on Wikipedia that it would be due for a review.

 * Have you read the WP:FAR instructions? You also have not done the notifications.  I suggest this FAR be removed. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  13:18, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello @SandyGeorgia,
 * This is my first time doing a featured article review and I skimmed through the instructions. I didn't realize that I had to leave a note on the talk page discussing the article issues beforehand. In my next FAR, I plan to do that from now on. Interstellarity (talk) 13:20, 17 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Close nom, out of process; this is not how FAR should be used. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  13:22, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * , I can fix articlehistory via a move to archive0 should you remove this. Sandy Georgia (Talk)  13:24, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks ; procedurally keeping this as out of process. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:27, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok, after FACbot goes through, I will adjust the articlehistory via moving this to archive0 so that it is not recorded in AH as a "real" keep. Sandy Georgia (Talk)  00:10, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
