Feminist theology edit

  Feminist theology – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 125 daily hits

  • There have been several tags at the top of the article, one since 2008 and one since 2016. I think the article has more material in it, and more links to other articles, than a typical Start-class article, and the subject is a modern, timely one that deserves a good article.  – Corinne (talk) 20:51, 20 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lyotropic liquid crystal edit

  Lyotropic liquid crystal – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 57 daily hits

  • Last month I discovered a very fragmented situation and I removed some duplicates of content, merged them and use the only few sources I had on my computer to improve the resulting combination. I did my best, but I still think that it can be further improved. The article was "de facto" abandoned for years, and I am surprised because it is a quite important topic. We all use liquid crystals or detergents in our life. I was also thinking to propose its translation in different languages on meta, but it still needs some improvement. Can someone else take a look too?Alexmar983 (talk) 10:30, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support Though the article has lots of content, a lot is probably not very accessible to non experts. Also a few new sections like "applications" may be easy enough to write . It is rated of mid importance by the chemistry project EvilxFish (talk) 16:21, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support - The article needs to be made comprehensible to the average Wikipedia reader.  – Corinne (talk) 03:42, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Oppose – A very technical topic, would this actually receive improvements from project members at the time it would be listed as a weekly collaboration? Perhaps not. North America1000 03:11, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Fine. Never ask more than people can do.--Alexmar983 (talk) 04:39, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, not trying to be rude. It's just that technical topics may not receive much input. Another article that is a bit technical in nature, Astronomical object, was a collaboration starting on 13 February 2017, and after my three minor edits to the article, it received a total of only four more relatively minor edits during the week. A much more general topic, the Page footer article, was a collaboration starting on 17 April 2017 and it received a total of four edits from the project. One was my moving the TAFI template atop the article, and three were minor edits by BabbaQ. It just seems that technical topics, as well as possibly "mundane" topics such as Page footer, don't receive much input. North America1000 07:52, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Mine was a neutral statement. It's fine, I took note.--Alexmar983 (talk) 08:16, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Oppose – I agree with Northamerica1000, too technical for the broad appeal needed for TAFI. – 𝕘wendy | ☎  17:15, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin Clementine edit

  Benjamin Clementine – (page view stats • edit • talk • history)

  • This article often slips into promotional speech, with praise that isn't always supported by inline citations (Lines like: "most critics have honoured him citing and describing him as a man of unusual intelligence, great piano style and deep musicality with charisma"). I have tried to clean up the tone before, but was accused of 'assaulting' the article by an anonymous user and had my edits reverted. EDIT: regarding Corinne's point - I have attempted to address this problem with tone on the talk page with no luck (no response). I'd appreciate if someone else could help with cleaning up the tone, so I don't end up in some kind of edit war. 80.193.25.91 (talk) 16:04, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Oppose - The article is rather substantial as it is. I think the nominator, or others, can work on improving the tone through talk page discussion.  – Corinne (talk) 21:41, 20 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • The biggest French-speaking newspaper in the whole world since many years. It should be improved.Alexmar983 (talk) 15:18, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Oppose - The article gets only 29 daily page views. There are many other articles with a much higher daily page view figure that need attention.  – Corinne (talk) 21:44, 20 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose – agree w/ Corinne, there doesn't appear to be sufficient interest in this article. – 𝕘wendy | ☎  17:51, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Occupational fatality edit

  Occupational fatality – (page view stats • edit • talk • history)

  • This article desperately needs a worldwide perspective as it's entirely concerned with the US - as you can see from the talk page, it's been the case for almost a decade. Stats and governing bodies in other countries would be a welcome addition. 80.193.25.91 (talk) 15:31, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Evolution of ageing edit

  Evolution of ageing – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 0 daily hits

  • This article has had multiple issues tags at the beginning of the article since 2008. It gets almost no page views, but the article may get more views as baby boomers begin to fill up nursing homes and retirement centers.  – Corinne (talk) 14:24, 24 May 2017 (UTC) I just found the article on Ageing and noticed that this article, Evolution of ageing, was not listed in the "See also" section, so I added it to the list of linked articles. Ageing gets 922 daily hits.  – Corinne (talk) 14:30, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bengalis edit

  Bengalis – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 606 daily hits

Comment - I'm not sure. Is there that much more that can be added to this article that is not already covered in Bangladeshis or the many articles linked to Bengalis?  – Corinne (talk) 13:39, 21 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It needs thorough development particularly in the cultural section. So please expand certain sections as well as provide relevant sources. Article Bangladeshis is a nationality of a particular country but Bengalis is an ethnic group that reside in Bangladesh and West Bengal heavily. Thanks--Anandmoorti (talk) 05:14, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – Hi! I noticed you requested this work on the WikiProject Bangladesh Talk Page & also pinged a number of editors on the Bengalis talk page. You seem quite motivated to have this article expanded, is there a reason that you have decided not to develop it further yourself?
Please know that a successful nomination doesn't mean the page will get immediate attention. There are many successful nominations waiting for random selection. It may take years for an article to be selected. – 𝕘wendy | ☎  17:18, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not so qualified enough to develop this article therefore I pinned number of users who may be qualified to do so but they didn't responded, I agree there are lot of article in the queue for such development. I put this article over here to your attention and hope you can help develop this article. Please its my humble appeal to you help nominate this article for development no problem if it takes time.--Anandmoorti (talk) 04:12, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
