2008–09 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team edit
I am nominating this topic because I feel it is a complete topic. There are only two notable players on the team by standard interpretation of notability. It is not uncommon for fanatical fans to create articles for most regular players (players in the regular rotation) or most starters for a college basketball team. However, I believe the standard for college athlete notability is approximately those players who might reasonably be expected to become professional athletes. In the Big Ten Conference and most "power conferences", I believe the borderline on notability is approximately those players who have been selected to the All-conference team. Only two Michigan players show up on lists of professional prospects. These two players and the coach make up the entirety of the list of subarticles at this time.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 12:51, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
Nomination fails 3a. Could be nominated as a Good Topic, as it meets 3b. cmadler (talk) 12:47, 19 May 2009 (UTC)- In case you did not notice, this is being nominated as a good topic. That is why it is listed at Wikipedia:Featured_topic_candidates#Good_topic_nominations--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 13:44, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, I followed your link from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Michigan to Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/2008–09 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team. There was no indication that it was a good topic nomination; having never previously participated in the good/featured topic process, it looked like a featured topic nomination. My previous comment is withdrawn; this appears to be a complete topic that meets the criteria: support. cmadler (talk) 14:48, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

- Support - nice work! Of course if any of the other players do go on to become notable, their articles will need adding to the topic at that time, but this is good as is - rst20xx (talk) 16:21, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
- Support - now that someone !voted - I wasn't sure if this topic is viable at first given that not all players are included—Chris! ct 18:19, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
