Bad article, no references,WP:MOSproblem.Amartyabag TALK2ME 16:15, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Holy cow... I wonder if it's possible to speedy de-feature, because I can't imagine anyone saving this article. Even three years ago, I'm almost surprised this was accepted as an FA with such a lack of references. -- Kicking222 16:10, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- There is no "speedy" defeature process. The whole point of FAR is to improve the article up to current standard. One note to the nominator: please notify relevant Wikiprojects and major editors as described in the FAR instructions. --RelHistBuff 16:24, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Not to be overly sarcastic, but oh really? I had no idea.
- Yes, I'm well aware of what an FAR is for, thanks. -- Kicking222 02:52, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Simply saying something is a "bad article" w/o backing that up with specifics or at least stating what parts of current FA standards this article fails to meet, is not an actionable objection and thus invalid. You also need to specifically state what parts of the MoS this article does not follow. So far, the only valid point raised is a lack of references; enough on its own, if not fixed, to defeature. But not before a proper review period. --mav 17:04, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Problem is with criteria 1b,1c, 2a, 2b, 2d, and may be 1a. See WP:FACRfor the details of criterais. Amartyabag TALK2ME 05:01, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
FARC commentary
[edit]- Suggested FA criteria concerns are citations and formatting (1c and 2d), comprehensiveness (1b), and LEAD (2a). Marskell 07:04, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Remove per 1c, 1d and 2a. LuciferMorgan 19:05, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Remove, almost completely uncited (example: It is estimated that approximately 2000 to 4000 reindeer live in Rondane and the nearby Dovre area.) Common terms like food should be delinked, btw. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:04, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Remove Pls. remove this article as quickly as possible, it is here for more than a month and no significant changes have been made. Amartyabag TALK2ME 07:35, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Remove—1c. And why are units linked, and inconsistently abbreviated? Unsatisfactory first caption. Stubby paras. Tony 12:25, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Remove—1c and MOS breaches. Tony 12:27, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Remove: Don't really want to flog a dead horse, but since I said something in the FAR, I thought I should vote in the FARC. --RelHistBuff 07:21, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
