The article was not promoted 04:31, 7 December 2007.
This is a well-written, well-sourced article about an influential band. It meets the criteria of a featured article and contains information on history, genres, ethic, albums, etc. There accounts on each member and there side-projects and much about the band themselves. There is also much in this article about the history of Fugazi and accounts of them. W123 (talk) 22:12, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Object. Many concerns with the article (I've contributed to the article in the past during the alt. music collaboration):
- Stub sections. "Campaigning and activism" comprises one sentence: "Fugazi have campaigned and engaged in activism." See the Pearl Jam equivalent.
- Lack of sources. "Business practice and ethics" is almost completely unsourced.
- "Hiatus" is full of one or two-line paragraphs, which isn't acceptable for a potential FA.
- Lead is insufficient. It doesn't summarise the history of the band or its campaigning and activism for instance.
- The article, while it's a good start, needs quite a bit of work still. CloudNine (talk) 22:36, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Object. The 'Campaigning and activism' section only has one sentence. Martin B 18:54, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Nominator appears not to be addressing objections; his only edit subsequent to nominating this article has been to remove the Activism section, which will no longer make the article comprehensive. CloudNine (talk) 21:23, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
