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]

Stale nominations with multiple supports

@FGTC coordinators: I'm noticing that there are multiple nominated featured and good topics right now that have multiple supports and have been inactive for some time but have yet to be promoted. Any movement on this? Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 06:10, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@FGTC coordinators: Several topics were promoted in the last few days; please note that the bot is not actually posting the promoted topics to WP:FT/GT. It updates the overall count and the articles themselves but never appends the new box to the page. I just added the 2 video game ones as I noticed them, but Special:Contributions/NovemBot shows that its true for all. Also, for some reason it makes GTs at Wikipedia:Featured topics/whatever, not Wikipedia:Good topics/whatever, so watch out for that. --Pres N 17:56, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also noting that for whatever reason, the bot did not remove the recently-promoted Doctor Who episodes topic from this page. TheDoctorWho (talk) 18:12, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It probably wasn't removed because the nomination subpage was moved, but the transclusion on the page wasn't updated. Regards, Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 09:20, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Scottish invasion of England (1648)

Hi @FGTC coordinators: I hope that things are ticking along here. I have just nominated a Featured Topic. Either there is something wrong with "Create a new nomination" or, more likely, I am too stupid to work out how to use it. So I created the nom "by hand". If I have messed up or broken anything let me know and I'll do my best to fix it. Gog the Mild (talk) 14:13, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Roman invasion of Africa (204–201 BC)

Greetings coordinators - Aza24, MaranoFan and Kyle Peake - a query. I nominated a couple of FTs a couple of weeks ago. One has just been promoted after garnering six supports - for which many thanks. The other, nominated a whole two hours earlier, has eight supports but is still waiting. I am absolutely not wanting to either nag nor backseat coordinate, but it occurred to me that there may be something which I am missing; possibly even something I should be doing or at least able to help with. In short, a brief update on Roman invasion of Africa (204–201 BC) would be appreciated. "Back off and be patient!" would be entirely acceptable.

Separately, it is good to see nominations getting processed through the system so promptly and efficiently. I know all too well that this means a fair bit of frantic activity behind the scenes, so many thanks for putting it in and getting F&GTC working so well.

Now promoted. The delay was mostly from my extended absence, and less activity from MaranoFan recently. We are lucky to have the resilience and efforts of @Kyle Peake, but my increased activity should amend this further. Aza24 (talk) 23:44, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Aza. For the promotion and the explanation. Gog the Mild (talk) 23:47, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
