Old Court-New Court controversy

Self-nomination for featured topic. These articles detail Sharp's life, his murder by Beauchamp, Beauchamp's possible motives, and his execution for the crime. This event has served as inspiration for several fictional works, including a play by Edgar Allan Poe and a book by Robert Penn Warren.

Support. I'm going to say support to this. It's a thin topic, but even so it appears to satisfy the criteria. Also, I think Old Court-New Court controversy could also be added to the topic. Rreagan007 (talk) 21:25, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the support. I was unsure if the connection to the Old Court-New Court controversy was sufficient to include it in this topic. It'll be easy enough to do if consensus dictates. It's also a GA, and the topic would still meet the 33% FA threshold if it were added. Acdixon ^{(talk • contribs • count)} 02:16, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support for the topic, but not 100% sure with the controversy article. I am surprised by how many people support a topic "1k miles long highways are a subtopic of highways going through a hamlet" while this obvious topic receives so little support. Nergaal (talk) 05:54, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
