Zuihō class aircraft carrier

[edit]

These two ships were part of the Imperial Japanese Navy's prewar policy to build ships that could be readily converted into aircraft carriers, disguising the size of its buildup. They were converted from submarine tenders before the start of the Pacific War. Shohō became the first carrier lost by the Japanese during the war while Zuihō lasted until 1944 before being sunk by the Americans.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:09, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think this topic meets the criteria. All five articles are GAs, including the album and its two singles, as well as two songs from the singer's previous album that are included as bonus tracks. --Pancake (talk) 10:22, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first foray into the world of topics, so this might be a bit of a punt, but I feel that these three articles comprehensively cover the minor 2009 BBC show Chartjackers. The single "I've Got Nothing" was the end product of the series, hence its inclusion here. All three articles are either good or featured. I hope that this means that the topic qualifies. Thankyou all in advance. --VoBEDD 18:01, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first GT nomination, so here goes. The topic is the album The Generous Mr. Lovewell by the Christian rock band MercyMe. I've improved all of these articles of GA-quality, and they are now eligible for GT-class. Against all applicable GT-criteria:

1(a). There are at least three distinct articles.
  • This is met as there are a total of four articles here.
1(b). The articles have a clear similarity with each other under a well-defined topical scope.
  • The lead article (ie. topic) is the album, while the three other articles are its singles.
1(c). All articles in the topic are linked together, preferably using a template, and share a common category or super-category.
1(d). There is no obvious gap (missing or stub article) in the topic. A topic must not cherry pick only the best articles to become featured together.
  • As no pages for album cuts have been created (yet), there is no gap in coverage. The album and all its singles are covered.
1(e). For overview topics, every article within the scope of the topic that is not included in the topic should also be within the scope of a non-lead article that is included in the topic.
  • As this is not an overview topic, this does not apply.
2. The topic has an introductory and summary lead article or list.
  • The lead article is the album page, The Generous Mr. Lovewell.
3(b)(i) All articles are at least featured lists or good articles.
  • All article featured are good articles.

Thanks in advance for your time reviewing this nomination. --Toa Nidhiki05 19:52, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I feel this topic meets the Good Topic criteria because it is a well-defined and exhaustive group of articles, each of a high standard, which are presented in a manner which aids their understanding in relation to one another. I plan this to be the first topic of a larger series of topics, in case any of you are wondering why this is only "Volume 1"—the various Volume articles will lead into a larger series under the Mythology of The X-Files banner. Five of these articles will overlap with the already-passed GT on the series' first season, but I don't see this as a problem as both topics have markedly different scopes, well-explained by their parent articles.

This is a collection of the twelve Ian Fleming James Bond novels and two collections of short stories. Having them as a collected good topic is a long-time goal of the WP:BOND project. All the relevant books have reached GA status and the main article—List of James Bond novels and stories has recently reached FL status. - SchroCat (^@) 19:35, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
