Workstation

[edit]

Workstation – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 335 daily hits

  1. Oppose. Computer science articles are one of the areas that benefit most from Wikipedia's systemic bias; they don't need this project's help. For a page with only 286 daily hits, C-class and severely under-referenced isn't anything out of the ordinary. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 02:55, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support, systemic bias or not, it can be improved, and that's all that matters. --littleb2009 (she/her) (talkcontribs) 23:10, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Support, critical need for improvement Iriskayak (talk) 06:57, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Support I've updated the daily count discovering that this article is becoming even more popular, thus more eligible of being an AFI.--RekishiEJ (talk) 06:50, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • An absolutely vital (currently level 5, proposed to be added to the level 4 list) article yet only start-rated with style and USA-centric issues.--RekishiEJ (talk) 07:24, 7 July 2021 (UTC) added a bit 13:01, 7 July 2021 (UTC) added a "the" 06:06, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Support. This is a general topic and ought to be way better than start class. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 10:03, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support Very important article. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 17:05, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Zinnia

[edit]

Zinnia – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 1000 daily hits

  1. Support An article with that many hits deserves to be better than this one is. 92.24.246.11 (talk) 21:12, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support. I'm surprised this has as many hits as it does, but the numbers don't seem to be lying, and it has clear room for improvement (more refs, sectioning adjustments, etc.). {{u|Sdkb}}talk 22:05, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Troxel v. Granville

[edit]

Troxel v. Granville – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 23 daily hits

  • This article, although does briefly state the plurality, concurrence and dissent opinions, actually does not explain who Toxel and Granville are, and why the former sued the latter. It does not summarize jurists' commentaries, either. Besides, the article contains {{Expert-subject}}, meaning the article is absolutely problematic. Because of these, and in America the legal arena is the most important in the settling of conflicts, compared to other Western democracies ([1]), this article ought to be an AFI.--RekishiEJ (talk) 16:32, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Oppose; barely any hits. The "expert needed" tag is a minus, not a plus, as AFI attracts the general editor population, not legal experts. Try a relevant wikiproject instead. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 16:50, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose, too low hits. SVcode(Talk) 22:35, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Carapace

[edit]

Carapace – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 239 daily hits

  • Stunned to find this tagged by only one project, rated low; this is the shell of animals like crabs and turtles. Compared to the pageview count, the article is extremely thin. 92.24.246.11 (talk) 21:12, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Neutral. It's got just barely enough hits that it wouldn't be a terrible idea to spend some of our effort expanding the very skimpy sections. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 21:47, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support, Hits are just above 200 and could do more expansion but I don't think there is much else to do there. SVcode(Talk) 13:23, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Support - Project could help with improvements.--BabbaQ (talk) 10:58, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Town

[edit]

Town – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 770 daily hits

Level-4 vital article with substanital hits that's in pretty bad shape. The lead is two sentences long. 'Nuff said. Saying more: the lead images should be converted to a single collage, citations should be added, and the article should be globalized to de-emphasize the U.S. and UK. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 00:04, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Miss

[edit]

Miss – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 238 daily hits

Average 238 pageviews a day and is an important topic. The article currently is completely unreferenced and has the potential for expansion. Clovermoss (talk) 22:37, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Support, this article has room for expansion with the right amount of views. SVcode(Talk) 00:22, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bull

[edit]

Bull – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 985 daily hits

  1. Oppose because it's already C-class. It could handle a bit of improvement from a few editors, but it probably doesn't need to be in the spotlight for a large part of the community to work on.
  2. Neutral. Lead needs expansion, but otherwise looks like standard C-class. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 17:36, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Support Though I've read the lede only, I clearly know that this article is problematic due to insufficient inline citations and overly short lede.--RekishiEJ (talk) 04:28, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Support It is better than most articles that get the thumbs up for AFI but at just shy of 1K daily hits it could still do to be much, much better than it is. 92.24.246.11 (talk) 20:41, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Comment I think that IP users have no right to vote.--RekishiEJ (talk) 08:09, 16 June 2021 (UTC) fixed a syntactic error 07:59, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Maybe, but the reasons they provide can still be considered. --littleb2009 (she/her) (talkcontribs) 23:02, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Support - The article could still benefit from inclusion. I support.BabbaQ (talk) 10:58, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Oppose Because it's already C-class, generally I'd prefer less high quality articles to be TAFI. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 19:23, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Emergency management

Emergency management – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 414 daily hits

  1. Support. This article was previously selected by AFI and ran this past March, but it still needs plenty of help, so I have no issue with running it again. It's been tag bombed quite excessively, which itself is an issue to clean up. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 22:00, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
