Review section
editThis article is mostly cited to primary sources such as the university itself, or the secret society itself, which leads to verifiability issues if the source for a secret society is itself. Several of these are simply internal archives/logs Bumbubookworm (talk) 19:01, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- It's so bad I'm wondering if it's even notable. I don't see any sources that would count towards WP:NORG. (t · c) buidhe 19:31, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm amazed this article ever cleared FAC. The sourcing is quite terrible. Vanamonde (Talk) 01:03, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Besides providing good evidence of Why We Love Ealdgyth (whose source reviews of every FAC were started the month after this promotion), this is a good candidate for Speedy delist, bypassing the two-week wait to Move to FARC; it is highly unlikely it can or will be repaired at FAR.

- Accelerated process - The old Jewish Encyclopedia source is probably the only source independent of the subject or Georgia Tech - from a first glance, McMath looks independent, but he was actually the ANAK faculty advisor at one point according to his article, so he's not independent here. I think this needs a whole new FAC, even if improved within FAR. I don't think I've ever seen such a high rate of non-independent sources in a FA. Hog Farm Talk 16:08, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
FARC section
edit- Issues raised in the review section largely concern sourcing. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:27, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist not salvageable w/o deletion or at minimum complete rewrite (t · c) buidhe 04:42, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delist - per above, all of the sources are apparently either 1) not about the subject or 2) connected to the subject. Even if improved, this needs a new FAC. Might be a case to invoke the Wikipedia:Featured article review/Shoe polish/archive2 precedent. Hog Farm Talk 07:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedly delist, and give Ealdgyth an award for starting serious source reviewing the month after this nomination. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:44, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist, serious sourcing issues. Vanamonde (Talk) 23:29, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Closing note: This removal candidate has been delisted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please leave the {{featured article review}} template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:28, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
