Discretion is the better part of valour.

I'm sorry guys, these are nice articles, but their domination of the main page is just embarrassing. Would you please consider reducing the nomination of articles on the Australian Armed Forces in WWII for the MAIN PAGE, to like one a year, maybe? Cricketers also. The world is a big place. Thanks Ben 70.30.20.107 (talk) 13:54, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ah yes, the world is a big place but unfortunately the pool of featured articles isn't. Personally I wouldn't have picked such a specialized topic for main page either but you'd have to discuss that with the coords at TFA. Another option of course is to help get articles on other topics to FA. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 22:53, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
