Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates/Emirates Cup/archive2
The Emirates Cup is an annual pre-season friendly association football competition hosted by Arsenal F.C. at their home stadium, the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal won the first edition in 2007, which featured Paris Saint-Germain, Valencia and Inter Milan; the two-day tournament brought in 110,000 spectators over the four matches. The tournament has been frequently cancelled and since 2019, the format has moved to a single exhibition friendly match between Arsenal and another team.

I am nominating this these articles as I believe together they constitute a complete good topic. This former good topic was delisted in 2020 as the 2019 edition had not reached recognised status in time. However, this article has recently been redirected to the lead article per this discussion, thus restoring the topic. It was also noted here that single-match editions (which has been the format since 2019) were not noteworthy enough to constitute individual articles. --Idiosincrático (talk) 02:59, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

- Comment I am confused as to why Emirates Cup is a featured list, as it is clearly an article? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:42, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
@AirshipJungleman29: I too was concerned about this. When the list originally passed as an FL, it was more "list-like" and no concerns were brought up then, nor in the previous GT nom. However, I agree with you and I think it should have an article rating. I'd be happy to nominate it for GA status if you'd be willing to review it? Just to help streamline both the GA and GT noms. It's a pretty straightforward article and should be a quick nomination as the article has already passed an FL nomination. I'll wait for your response before doing so :) Idiosincrático (talk) 07:35, 20 February 2024 (UTC)- I think I'm going to change my stance on this; overtime I think as more editions of the tournament pass, the longer the list will grow. I believe the list will grow disproportionately to the commentary and expand into a more of a 'list-class' article. Thus, I think out of practicality, it should remain a list. I'd like to hear other people's opinion on this, but unless someone opposes the nomination, I will not change anything within the topic nomination. Idiosincrático (talk) 06:20, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

- Support No problem with the main article being a list (there are a lot of lists that are FLs with a decent history section.) Complete topic, good work. NapHit (talk) 21:10, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

- Support per previous consensus: complete with respect to notable articles. The main page being a list makes sense to me. — Bilorv (talk) 17:51, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
