In my opinion, the article does not meet 1c) and 2c) of the featured article criteria—the quality of sourcing is below what should be expected. There are significant instances of WP:CITEKILL, many references are missing basic information such as page ranges, location, publisher, etc., but above all there are far fewer high-quality sources than should be expected from an FA. Among varied instances, the article has two sources from the nineteenth century, "Popular Karnataka Food Items You Have To Try". 21 October 2020., "Census of India: Comparative speaker's strength of Scheduled Languages-1951, 1961, 1971, 1981, 1991, 2001 and 2011" (PDF). (without the PDF), Limca Book of Records. Bisleri Beverages Limited. 2001. p. 97. Retrieved 18 November 2012., Oliver, Valerie. "History of Spin Top". www.yoyomuseum.com. Retrieved 16 April 2017., and many others I chose not to highlight. To be an FA, the article needs to incorporate far more high-quality sources and to cite them correctly. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:49, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have been working on the sources. Have taken your comments as well and have actioned on the concerned ones. If you have any other concerns, it would be helpful if you could point to specific sources so that I can work on the same.Magentic Manifestations (talk) 17:28, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Coord note

[edit]

With no commentary for over a fortnight, this nom appears to have stalled so I'll be archiving it shortly. I'd suggest taking it to peer review (pinging the users who have stopped by here, and others who might be interested) before considering a renomination here.
