This topic covers the eight geographically based commands formed by the Royal Australian Air Force during World War II. Five of the formations survived into the early 1950s, when the whole shebang was superseded by a functional command-and-control system made up of Home (operational), Training and Maintenance Commands. I've had this on the boil for a couple of years, originally planning the parent RAAF area commands to be more like a list, with subsections on the individual commands following the overview, but in the end I decided that the commands all justified their own articles and that I might put them together in a GT nom/book when complete. As the last in the series has just passed GAN, here they are... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 12:01, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- Support, but how come you dint go for a topic on RAAF Command? Nergaal (talk) 01:50, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
- Tks. This one seemed a natural, almost like a ship class topic -- I think when you take it up to the RAAF Command level, you're into a a different type of topic, no longer area commands per se, but operational command of the RAAF in the South West Pacific, and just what should belong in such a topic becomes a little more problematic, even for those relatively familiar with the subject...!

- Support: these are all quality articles which work well together as a topic in my opinion. The only thing that leapt out at me was the self pointing redirect for No. 1 Group on Southern Area Command (RAAF). Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 22:32, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- Tks Rupert, I probably did the same thing with No. 2 Group at Central Area Command -- will rectify both as needed. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 12:47, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
- SUpport - Logical groupings, high quality, all related and actually a clearly defined topic. MPJ-DK 21:02, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

I am nominating these series of articles for WP:GT, because they all recently passed WP:GA and I believe they are a comprehensive overview of singer Madonna's Bedtime Stories album era. --—IB [ Poke ] 11:28, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- Support Marvelous job on all the articles (as always). Nothing less was expected from a user like IndianBio. My love is love 20:57, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- Support very good work; this deserves to be GT. Snuggums (talk / edits) 22:12, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- Support It's a stable Good Topic. The era is definitely done and there would be no more articles to be created for this topic in the future. Well, unless if someone later covers its non-single track and makes it a big hit. Bluesatellite (talk) 23:15, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
