One or two topics?

I have a GT that I'm nearing completion on (only two GA's away). I was initially planning on putting everything into one topic, but after seeing how some of the other television-related topics have been historically set up, I was wondering if it would be better suited as two, or if I should just stick with the one?

One topic format:

Line of Duty

9 articles

List of Line of Duty episodes

List of awards and nominations received by Line of Duty

Line of Duty series 1

Line of Duty series 2

Line of Duty series 3

Line of Duty series 4

Line of Duty series 5

Line of Duty series 6

Two topic format:

Line of Duty

3 articles

List of Line of Duty episodes^(subtopic)

List of awards and nominations received by Line of Duty

Seasons of Line of Duty

7 articles

Line of Duty series 1

Line of Duty series 2

Line of Duty series 3

Line of Duty series 4

Line of Duty series 5

Line of Duty series 6

I'd say sub topic makes the most sense. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:00, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The two topics work fine imo Idiosincrático (talk) 20:39, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
IMO it seems better suited to two topics. Gog the Mild (talk) 10:51, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the replies, I appreciate it! I've gone ahead and nominated the first set since it's complete. TheDoctorWho (talk) 16:58, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Has this nomination been properly closed?

Topic nomination has since closed. Idiosincrático (talk) 22:37, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Featured and good topic candidates/Djibouti at the Olympics/archive2 was apparently withdrawn, but its nomination still shows up in relevant WikiProjects' article alerts. Was it closed properly, i.e. is there anything else that needs to be done? Yue🌙 08:01, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

From GT to FT?

Fearless (Taylor Swift album) was promoted as a Good Topic, but with its current number of Featured Articles, it is now qualified as a Featured Topic. Is there any procedure to officialize this? Ippantekina (talk) 04:03, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@FGTC coordinators: please advise tysm! Ippantekina (talk) 07:52, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For the correct process, I would say you need to put this through the featured topic candidates since the previous nomination only had consensus to become a GT, making a new one needed for FT. --K. Peake 08:55, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok let me create a new nomination, thanks! Ippantekina (talk) 09:55, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This was previously discussed here in January where it was said that "GTs eligible for FT status do not require a nomination." Not sure which is actually correct, just noting the discrepancy in answers. Pinging @MaranoFan: as a courtesy since they responded there. TheDoctorWho (talk) 16:46, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I do not think a new nomination is required in this case. I moved my own Thank You GT to FT two years back and we haven't discussed changing the procedure since. Maybe Aza24 can confirm.--N Ø 16:57, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think there is a strict/decided rule for this. I would say it is not particularly worthwhile to necessitate an entirely new nomination. Aza24 (talk) 23:26, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have had three GTs promoted to FTs. None of them were renominated. Gog the Mild (talk) 23:40, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Neat, I noticed a few topics that would be eligible during one of my regular rounds of updating redirects in the topics. I'll go ahead n get those done then. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:22, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, I totally missed this discussion. Alright, roger that! Ippantekina (talk) 14:10, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@FGTC coordinators: Now that Scott Carpenter has been promoted as a featured article, Wikipedia:Featured topics/Mercury Seven can now become a Featured Topic. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 21:48, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

30 Rock seasons 2 and 3 at FLRC

Hi all, I'm here to note that FLRCs for 30 Rock season 2 and 30 Rock season 3 have been opened; both are the main articles for good topics. Just wanted to leave a note here in case anyone in the GT/FT community is interesting in working to keep these at GT level before going to GTRC. RunningTiger123 (talk) 00:58, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
