The portal was not promoted by Bencherlite 15:21, 2 September 2012 [1].
I am nominating this portal for FP because I believe it meets FPO criteria. It has received a peer review, also. Cheers, and thanks for considering this. TBrandley 04:21, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Some quick and dirty comments:
- The topic is quite small, so I don't know if there is enough to get to FPor quality. The smallest, AFAIK, is P:BO
- The topic is not going to need a news section as there is no more news coming (likely)
- The amount of selected content is quite limited (2 SPs, 2 SAs, 3 SEs)
- There is more; I'll try to get it on to there. TBrandley 04:55, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The captions for the FPs should have links in them
- I wish you luck... — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:50, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks anyway. TBrandley 05:01, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose—the scope is too limited, and I can't support the portal's existence let alone promotion as "Featured". Yes, I nominated a portal on a somewhat limited subject matter, Portal:Michigan Highways, but there are almost 200 GA-/A-/FA-Class articles in that topic area.
- There are only two selected character listings. For Portal:Maryland Roads, other reviewers wanted to see at least 20 selections in each content area. This portal is too limited, and can't be reasonably expanded.
- There's only one quote. Again, too limited of scope without avenues for expansion.
- There are only three selected episodes, when in theory there should be 13, aka, all of them "selected".
- Okay. I will work on it. TBrandley 05:01, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, things are just too limited. Imzadi 1979 → 04:51, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- K. Thanks anyway. TBrandley 05:01, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose per above. There is not enough Awake content to qualify for a featured portal. TRLIJC19 (talk • contribs) 04:54, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay. I'll come back later (maybe) when (if) there can/will be more at a later time (or not). Thanks anyway. TBrandley 04:59, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose per Imzadi1979 (talk · contribs) and TRLIJC19 (talk · contribs). Although it had a peer review once, I think the portal is very narrow, it has not enough content and limited scope compared to Ed, Edd n Eddy portal. JJ98 (Talk / Contribs) 07:26, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Closed as unsuccessful. BencherliteTalk 15:22, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
