Was doing a little cleaning up around the wiki and I noticed that I had managed to make this page Good. Given how much info is on the page though, it ought to be more than just Good, I think. What do you think? --[[User:Samwell|Samwell]] ([[User talk:Samwell|talk]]) 00:28, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

#Normally I would be in favor, and actually I almost nominated this myself a while ago, but then I saw [[Copy Ability/gallery]] was incomplete and started working on completing it. In theory the copy ability page shouldn't even be marked as "Good", but I let it be because it was due to just that gallery page. However, I am opposed to having it become a featured article until we complete that. [[User:Gigi|Gigi]] ([[User talk:Gigi|talk]]) 17:47, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

Off-topic (maybe?) question: is there a reason why lists can't be featured? {{User:Superbound/sig}} 17:34, 4 July 2020 (UTC)
:My primary reasoning for excluding lists was because they do not feature the well-rounded nature of proper articles. It's little more than a collection of bits, rather than a cohesive whole. --[[User:Samwell|Samwell]] ([[User talk:Samwell|talk]]) 05:07, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
