Featured and good topics in Wikipedia   Afeatured topic (FT) is a collection of inter-related articles in which at least half arefeatured articles orfeatured lists. The remaining articles must be at least good quality. Agood topic (GT) is a collection of inter-related articles that are of a good quality (though are not necessarilyfeatured articles) with a less stringent quality threshold than a featured topic. This page is for the nomination of potential featured and good topics. See thefeatured and good topic criteria for criteria on both types of topic. Before nominating a topic, nominators may wish to receive feedback by listing it at theFeatured and good topics talk page. Nominators must be sufficiently familiar with the subject matter and sources to deal with objections during the FTC/GTC process. If you nominate something you have worked on, note it as a self-nomination. Nominators who are notsignificant contributors to the articles of the topic should consult regular editors of the articles prior to nomination. Nominators are expected to respond positively to constructive criticism and to make an effort to address objections promptly. The featured and good topics coordinatorsAza24,MaranoFan andKyle Peake determine the timing of the process for each nomination. For a nomination to be promoted to FT or GT status,consensus must be reached for a group to be promoted to featured or good topic status. If enough time passes without objections being resolved, nominations will be removed from the candidates topic and archived. To contact the FGTC coordinators, please leave a message on theFGTC talk page, or use the{{@FGTC}}notification template elsewhere. You may want to check previous archived nominations first: | Good content: Featured and good topic tools: |

No. 86 Wing is aRoyal Australian Air Force (RAAF) transport and air-to-air refuelling wing. Coming under the control ofAir Mobility Group RAAF, it is headquartered atRAAF Base Amberley inQueensland.
Three out of four articles in the topic are featured articles, and the one remaining article is a good article, which meets the minimum criteria for a FTC. One article in the topic (No. 36 Squadron) is part of a good topic, the No. 91 (Composite) Wing RAAF, but the squadron has been part of the No. 86 Wing for most of its service years, and was part of the No. 91 Wing for only two years, so I don't think there should be any problems of overlap. If there are, I can remove the No. 36 Squadron article from this topic. I don't know if there is precedent for an article being part of two or more good/featured topics and what the required procedure would be, but I would like to know. --Matarisvan (talk)11:46, 23 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The Battle of Prairie Grove, also known as the Prairie Grove Campaign, was a battle of theAmerican Civil War fought on December 7, 1862. While tactically indecisive, the battle secured Union control overNorthwest Arkansas.
Two articles in the topic are featured articles, and the lead article is a GA, so I think the topic meet the FTC criteria. As veteran users likeHog Farm continue to work on American Civil War articles, I think there could be other featured topics like this one. Some potential ACW topics close to being FTCs are Camden's Expedition, Price's Missouri Raid, and the longshot Vicksburg campaign. --Matarisvan (talk)12:23, 23 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
All three studio album articles have now been brought to good article status with the goal of forming a good topic. I had planned to submit the nomination whenForever Howlong was promoted to GA about 15 days ago but didn't get around to it until now. --Cattos💭03:48, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Laurence Sterne was an eighteenth-century priest and satirist. After a long career as an obscure rural clergyman, in 1760 he became famous for the bawdy comic novelTristram Shandy, which has led to an enduring interest in his other, more minor works.~ L 🌸 (talk)03:19, 14 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is a Good Topic nomination and I've brought all the articles to GA status. It consists of all of his publications, plus the two posthumous publications that are notable for standalone articles (the Fragment and the correspondence). I've chosen to exclude existing articles on individual fictional characters from his works (Doctor Slop,Hafen Slawkenbergius,Smelfungus) because that seems like a different topic (and frankly because I'm not 100% convinced they merit their own articles but have not chosen to wrangle with them.) This is my first Good Topic, so I hope I am doing the process right and please let me know if not!~ L 🌸 (talk)03:19, 14 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have made theVictorious soundtrack and its two extended plays to GA status. The discography is now at FL so I believe it meets all requirements.Shoot for the Stars (talk)06:24, 7 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

With the demotion of30 Rock season 3, this no longer meets the good topic criteria. No recent efforts to improve the article or nominate it for a status promotion. Retention period expired September 1, 2025.Z1720 (talk)20:55, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
San Marino debuted at theEurovision Song Contest in 2008 and has since then participated 14 times, only missing the 2009 and 2010 contests. During this time period, they have placed last and qualified for the grand final three times.
With the conclusion of the 2025 edition,San Marino in the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 should be added to the topic, and needs to be updated to GA status. Currently there is no active ongoing effort to improve the article and the retention period expired August 17, 2025.Z1720 (talk)20:47, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
