Ebola virus disease in Mali edit

Nominator(s): Gremlinsa (talk) 08:49, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about the current Ebola epidemic in Mali, of all the articles on the different area's this one started off smoothly, had little to none RFC's regarding content, has been stable for some time, apart from current events updates. Several of the editors namely Impsswoon,Gandydancer and BrianGroen have worked very well together in putting current and relevant info onto the page, and ensuring that the article has good flow, and sticks to WP policy's. Going through the article today,I realized that at current the article is about as concise and detailed about its subject, with little to no excess, or unrelated info, but does include all relevant info and properly links to sub pages. Because of this I figured that it could very well be a FA, and decided to nominate it.Gremlinsa (talk) 08:49, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose and suggest withdrawal. The events are changing too quickly for the article to be stable. See Wikipedia:Recentism. Graham Beards (talk) 09:39, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I agree. Furthermore, in all honesty I don't feel that the article is even close to featured article condition. Gandydancer (talk) 10:25, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
