Appearance
Quentin Tarantino is an American film director, screenwriter, producer, and actor. His films are characterized by nonlinear storylines, aestheticization of violence, extended scenes of dialogue, ensemble casts, references to popular culture and a wide variety of other films, soundtracks primarily containing songs and score pieces from the 1960s to the 1980s, alternate history, and features of neo-noir film.
I am nominating director Quentin Tarantino as a good topic since many of his films have reached good-article status, along with his filmography, and his film's Inglourious Basterds accolade list as they have both reached featured-list status.

- Director Comment - there are numerous articles missing from this topic. Pulp Fiction isn't even here. GamerPro64 21:17, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose: As Gamer points out, there are lots of Tarantino's notable films left out of the current proposal, and a GT/FT proposal can't cherry pick only article that happen to currently be at high quality. More fundamentally, the inclusion of Quentin Tarantino filmography makes this into an overview topic proposal and means that the proposal need not include any articles at all about his individual films, since they're all covered under that FL. If you could take the biography and filmography and add Featured List versions of List of awards and nominations received by Quentin Tarantino and Quentin Tarantino's unrealized projects, together with a GA/FA version of A Band Apart and maybe Rolling Thunder Pictures, then I think you'd have a G/FT to propose. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 00:06, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - I suspect this is a case of misunderstanding the criteria for a FT/GT as "group together any articles relating to a topic which are at GA/FA status", which isn't how it works........... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:02, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, this is exactly right. I didn't get the fact that most of the topic-related articles should of been FL/GA. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 19:43, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- So do you want to withdraw the nomnation? GamerPro64 00:46, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
- @GamerPro64: Yes. I'm sorry for my lack of understanding of the criteria. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 01:07, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
