1995 Pacific hurricane season[edit]
I realized just yesterday that I had an FT-worthy bunch of articles, so I'm nominating it for FTC. The season was unusual for how quiet it was, although one of the storms was one of the deadliest in the basin. Hope you like it. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:45, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

WeakComment There is still one land-impacting storm without an article, Hurricane Flossie (1995).However, it should not be considered an huge gap.Leave Message, Yellow Evan home- Unlike Henriette, it didn't make landfall, and unlike Juliette, it didn't have much of a meteorological history. There's not really enough info for an article on Flossie. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 23:11, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
- Support - Based on what there is in the Season article i dont think Flossie needs an article.Jason Rees (talk) 15:28, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Radetzky class battleships[edit]
Radetzky-class battleships
Me, Parsecboy and White Shadows are nominating this for a GT because we feel that we have done all the work necesary to get them all to GA's. We got half of them done in one day after I moved Erzherzog to mainspace. I hope this passes, and I'll warn those two right now. Thanks. Buggie111 (talk) 19:06, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
- Support -MBK004 20:57, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
- Support - but with quite a low number of ships in total, I would advocate there being just one big Austo-Hungarian topic, once the others are up to scratch. Like the German battlecruisers topic - rst20xx (talk) 22:05, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
- Agreed. However, in the mean time, I belive that this is a suitable GTC.--White Shadows you're breaking up 23:07, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
- Right, but eventually, every single battleship article will be one big FT, so even the BC FT will be merged in. We're starting small and merging things up as we can. Parsecboy (talk) 10:56, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah. I know...it's a slow process. (If only they had Operation Majestic U-boat....)--White Shadows you're breaking up 21:48, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
- Hey, once we get done with the BBs and BCs, we'll need something to do :) Parsecboy (talk) 02:29, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- Have you seen the "PHase layout" section in the page. We need to get the armor, the commadners the engagements and so forth also to GA's and FA"s. Buggie111 (talk) 02:32, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I meant once OMT is complete. Parsecboy (talk) 20:17, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- Clearly then we'll be doing Operation Majestic Bird Farms! - The Bushranger (talk) 23:52, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

NiciVampireHeart and I are nominating the topic Spirit Squad as a Good Topic. The Spirit Squad was a professional wrestling faction in WWE, comprised of Kenny Dykstra (as Kenny), Johnny Jeter (as Johnny), Nick Mitchell (as Mitch), Nick Nemeth (as Nicky), and Michael Brendli (as Mikey).

Judaism in Rugrats[edit]
The accumulation of about a half-a-year's worth of research, compilation, and nominations brings me to this. All articles are GAs, except for "A Rugrats Chanukah" which passed its FAC last December. I believe all criteria is met here, so there shouldn't be any problems. The Flash I am Jack's complete lack of surprise 15:04, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Comment - I think the topic should be renamed to the more general "Judaism in Rugrats", as I don't feel any extra articles would need including under that name (unless I'm missing something?). That'd just about be general enough in scope, IMO. Also the main article needs to be linked to on {{Rugrats}} - rst20xx (talk) 23:52, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Hannah Montana: The Movie soundtrack[edit]
I believe that Hannah Montana: The Movie soundtrack meets all the criteria for being a Good Topic in Wikipedia. In fact, all eight articles about the topic are of Good Article status. I have personally worked on all these articles and think that there should be no problem in listing this as a Good Topic. -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 06:33, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
- Throwing in my co-nom; I've worked on all of these articles and believe that they are up to standard. I also believe the topic includes all of the necessary articles, although we do plan on working on the movie and video game articles at some point. liquidluck✽talk 02:12, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
- Support Crystal Clear x3 [talk] 16:51, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose - I think this topic has an overly narrow focus, and a more general one on Hannah Montana: The Movie should be built instead. This topic would only need the articles Hannah Montana: The Movie and Hannah Montana: The Movie (video game) adding. The articles on the characters would not need adding as they are not exclusive to just this film - rst20xx (talk) 22:21, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Also, you should include The Best of Both Worlds (song), though this is a GA so can simply be added. But the article should be expanded to mention the 2009 Movie Mix - rst20xx (talk) 22:42, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
- Added and information is mentioned in the lead, should suffice. -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 21:18, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

- Support - If the articles on the movie and video game are promoted in the near future, then by all means the topic can be expanded to a greater focus. But for now, I don't see the focus as being overly narrow. GeeJo (t)⁄(c) • 22:48, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
