Works of Mary Wollstonecraft
[edit]
This set is based on this template {{Mary Wollstonecraft}}. The series has a very high percentage of (over half) which will only get higher. All the rest are GAs, the last being recently promoted. Analytical Review, which is on the template, is not included because it is a periodical and not exclusively her work. Maria: or, The Wrongs of Woman, is a current Featured Article Candidate.

- Comment As Wrad and others are aware, I have been working on these MW articles for about a year now (I am the primary editor of all of them). I was planning on submitting a "Mary Wollstonecraft" featured topic in a couple of months or so, after the remaining articles had advanced from GA to FA and I had had an opportunity to revise Mary Wollstonecraft to reflect the newly written pages on her works. I had also wanted time to go over all of the pages again and polish them up, standardize them, etc. before submitting them here. Is there any way to put this nomination on hold for several months or simply resubmit it later? Like Wrad, I am anxious to see the topic nominated, but I feel that it is not quite ready.

- Minor point: The topic should either be "Mary Wollstonecraft" so that it can eventually include articles such as William Godwin and Fanny Imlay or it should be called "Major works of Mary Wollstonecraft" as these are not all of her works. My personal preference is for the more inclusive "Mary Wollstonecraft". Awadewit | talk 06:14, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. Normally, one supports or opposes, but in this case I would say allow the main editor more time, as she wishes. That isn't to say that the topic is not already of featured quality (I know most of these articles well, and I think it is, though there are some more articles and connected matter to be polished up to make it as outstandingly comprehensive as it intends to be), but colleague Awadewit is approaching this task so professionally that I think it would be wrong to knock her off her stride at this point. Colleague Wrad is a very friendly and flexible editor, and I am sure he will understand this point. This threatens to be one of the most remarkable personal projects on wikipedia, so I hope that there is a way to gently postpone this nomination.qp10qp 11:36, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
