History and politics
Yu Wensheng
Yu Wensheng – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 7 daily hits
- This is a newly-created human rights/political persecution article. It has gotten significant media coverage, and Yu Wensheng's secret trial and sentencing was condemned internationally. It can be substantially improved by our collective effort, thus deserving and earning more daily hits. Thomas Meng (talk) 02:55, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Almost no traffic. To improve the article, I'd suggest seeking out someone who knows Chinese and asking them to translate. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 00:44, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
Aram (region)
Aram (region) – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 11 daily hits
- It's an already existing page about the ancient Arameans with a low quality. To improve the article I suggest someone who knows alot about history and uses scholarly sources to provide his text with, the same goes for the page Aramean kingsReldex (talk) 20:48, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
Assassination of Park Chung-hee
Assassination of Park Chung-hee – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 218 daily hits
- Assassination that lead South Korea from a dictatorship to an actual democracy. I was reading through the article and realized that there is a lot of unsourced information listed. Unsure if this is the place to post an evaluation or request. Thank you for your consideration in any case. Augu❤Maugu 💕 08:00, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. Gets ~ 300 views per day, but this is of a 40 year old event. Mentioning the article at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Korea may be a better idea. David notMD (talk) 08:34, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Support. Important historical event, and there is plenty of room for improvement, particularly with citing and converting the theories section to prose. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 05:57, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
Second Barbary War
Second Barbary War – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 160 daily hits
- One of the earliest armed conflicts the United States fought outside its borders, this historically significant war was short and limited, but the current article has exactly one sentence in its entire body that describes the war itself! (It's the first line of the "War" section, if you're curious—a run-on sentence that does no more than note a couple of engagements.) This article need not be lengthy and should reflect the appropriate sources that are available, but if the topic is at all worthy of an article—and its temporal distinction from the First Barbary War seems to require one—the article should be improved to be, well... about the article topic, describing, at the very least, the principle figures and forces in each of the battles. ComicsAreJustAllRight (talk) 00:27, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. This is a small article and could certainly use from some expansion, but then again it was a small war. Also very few hits. WP:MILHIST is an extremely active WikiProject, so you'd do better to post about this there; military history topics are among the most developed on Wikipedia and don't need our assistance. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 06:01, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

[[Lunar magma ocean]] – (page view stats • [{{fullurl:Lunar magma ocean|action=edit}} edit] • [[Talk:Lunar magma ocean|talk]] • [{{fullurl:Lunar magma ocean|action=history}} history]) - 30 daily hits
- Just wondering if this article can be moved to Class C. Viranga13 (talk) 00:30, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
Extinction risk from climate change – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 55 daily hits
- Low amount of hits, but in desperate need of improvement. The acute issues are original research, disputed information, and NPOV. Opal|zukor(discuss) 16:20, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. Sorry, too few hits. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 04:13, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
Superstition – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 773 daily hits
- Lot of ref sources available, Deserves to be improved to class B,Bookku (talk) 18:54, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
- Support. I see lots that can be improved (highly excessive see also list, unneeded quoting in intro, layout issues), and it's a broad topic. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 04:33, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - >15000 daily hits
- Yesterday's views were 45000; "This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report 9 times... " As per report Feb 14 2020 week views were 1,105,343.
- It's surprising all article in Category:Days celebrating love are lacking in enough coverage. article Valentine's day is missing on many fronts incl. in depth coverage of global geographic areas including east Europe in general and Russia in particular.
Organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners in China
Organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners in China – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 549 daily hits
- An extremely important topic about an ongoing human rights atrocity. Yet this article is out of date due to its undercoverage of most recent events, notably the China Tribunal's judgement in 2019, which confirms "beyond reasonable doubt" that forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience has been taking place in China on a massive scale. Thomas Meng (talk) 20:03, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose: Anything involving Falun Gong on this website never ends well, bringing more attention to it would just make things worse Helloimahumanbeing (talk) 04:38, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose: This request seems more like a naked attempt to muster editors to violate WP:NEUT than a serious proposal. ComicsAreJustAllRight (talk) 04:45, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
Student exchange program
Student exchange program – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 250 daily hits
- A high-importance general article for education, but has myriad problems, including lack of citations, lack of global perspective, unencyclopedic content, excessive see also list, poor redirects and incoming wikilinking, etc. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 00:42, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
