Proposed deletion of Toi8

The article Toi8 has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Hi, could you explain why you changed the tag on Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki article from GA to FA? I have reverted your edits - as you can see from article milestones, it was not promoted to FA status. BytEfLUSh | Talk 02:52, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response. I assumed it was something like that, just wanted to be sure. :) Promoting an article to FA is not something that can be unilaterally done by a single editor, there is a process that must take place for an article to achieve FA status. I'm not heavily involved with the article you want to promote to FA, but starting here might be helpful: WP:FAC. You should also seek opinions from more editors on the article's talk page. I hope to see it achieving FA status soon, and thank you for your contributions to the project. Best wishes, BytEfLUSh | Talk 23:54, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nominating articles at FAC

Please DO NOT submit any articles to WP:Featured article candidates that you haven't worked on yourself or consulted major contributors beforehand. The instructions on that page even state Nominators who are not significant contributors to the article should consult regular editors of the article before nominating it. Your recent drive-by nominations are therefore inappropriate since you failed to do either of those. When you do submit something there in the future, it should be something YOU worked extensively on to ensure it meets WP:Featured article criteria unless you at least have first talked with those who've done lots of work on the article.

Please note that this also applies to Good article nominations: the instructions have a similar statement about nominators who are not significant contributors needing to consult those who are beforehand—that consultation will take at least a week to complete, to allow sufficient time for replies.
