Turkish television drama


Turkish television drama  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 224 daily hits

  • Second largest exporter of TV series worldwide after the US, I think that establishes importance on its own. Also very prominent in Turkish social and political discourse. Full of original research, poor sourcing, excessive/irrelevant detail, badly written English, poor formatting etc. I have been working on improving it over the past several weeks (mostly trimming or outright deleting parts), but it's too large of an article for me to improve on my own. Especially needs better context provided for most sections. Wreaderick (talk) 11:49, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

The arts


The arts  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 562 daily hits

  • Level 1 vital article. This article is at B, but needs elaboration. It has many sections that are quite small, with at least one only two sentences in length. As one of the 10 level 1 articles, it should be a priority for improvment. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 03:34, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

Everyday life

Mustard (condiment)


Mustard (condiment)  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 720 daily hits

  • It could use a complete overhaul: the flow is inconsistent, occasionally duplicative, and focuses on certain uses while barely mentioning others. The History section could be widely expanded to be more inclusive. The Varieties section also seems incomplete and in no particular order. ~2026-36179-50 (talk) 13:27, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine


Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 13 daily hits

  • I don't know if hospitals are a part of everyday life, but whatever. What I'm egging at here is the sentences in this article, which use inconsistent British and American spellings, à la Adidas Al Rihla (which is also being nominated.) Please see my discussion for more information. I will be making a to-do list and reaching out to Eric72, the creator of the article. 2600 etc (talk) 17:29, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
  1. Oppose There is no spelling issue here. The "inconsistent British and American spellings" are simply the accepted spellings in Canadian English, which the article is written in since it is a hospital in Canada. — Kawnhr (talk) 18:37, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
I know you’re talking about paed and ize. 2600 etc (talk) 19:13, 9 November 2025 (UTC)

Hulhumalé


Hulhumalé  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 85 daily hits

  • The article currently has old information about Hulhumalé and there are barely any citations that cover the article. There is also barely any information about Hulhumalé in the article. Unilandofma(Talk to me!) 11:22, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
  1. Support, high importance on a wikiproject and needs more expansion and citations. SVcode(Talk) 23:53, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
  2. Support - needs project help.--BabbaQ (talk) 08:07, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
  3. Oppose - I don't see it being that important to the big image. It is definetly not of interest to the general public, after all. To compensate, above is listed the capital of the Maldives, Malé. The capital is much more deserving than this non-vital city Earth605 (talk) 10:03, 31 August 2025 (UTC)
  4. Support, just a weak one, but a major project with a high importance rating in a country WikiProject seems really big. There are many unsourced parts and is not updated. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 (My "blotter") 08:53, 15 September 2025 (UTC)

  • Level 5 vital article, very stubby and based on a single source. Kowal2701 (talk, contribs) 20:59, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
  1. Support Location is the article we use for "Place," which is a very important concept in geography. Both location and place are on the list of Five themes of geography. This is an extraordinarilyxtraordinarily complex subject that needs a lot of work. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 21:05, 21 June 2026 (UTC)

Greater Bengaluru Authority


Greater Bengaluru Authority  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 118 daily hits

  • The municipal body that was responsible for the administration of Bengaluru, the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike with 225 wards was abolished and replaced with five individual municipal bodies: Bengaluru Central City Corporation with 63 wards, Bengaluru North City Corporation with 72 wards, Bengaluru South City Corporation with 72 wards, Bengaluru East City Corporation with 50 wards and Bengaluru West City Corporation with 112 wards, all under this apex body Greater Bengaluru Authority, responsible for coordinating with the different municipal bodies, Government of Karnataka and other parastatal agencies in Bengaluru. The new municipal bodies are due for election in August of 2026 (2026 Greater Bengaluru Authority elections). The main page nominated here seems to be way behind in the information updated and the depth in the content. I tried to discuss in the article's talk page, but no one seems to discuss there. Also, I found there is no wiki pages for these new municipal bodies. I heard this is the place you go to find people to improve an article, so here I am. Looking foreword for a positive response. Thank you. ~2026-23412-42 (talk) 12:27, 24 May 2026 (UTC)

Nelson, British Columbia


Nelson, British Columbia  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 204 daily hits

  • Please excuse me if I'm posting this request in the wrong place. The article Nelson, British Columbia seems to have been started in 2003. It now has a history of more than two decades, through which many corrections and improvements have been posted, along with a great deal of informational content expansion. It still has a "Start Class" notice at the top. This now seems inappropriate. Please help by considering whether this status may now be changed. Thanks.Joel Russ (talk) 13:56, 30 April 2026 (UTC)
  1. Oppose, sorry, but this is the wrong place to reassess the class of this article, I feel like peer review maybe a good place to start. SVcode(Talk) 23:53, 21 May 2026 (UTC)

Robert Kenyon  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - N/A daily hits

  • The new article on Kenyon covers a politician who is a candidate (and one of two likely to succeed based on polling and analysis) in the 2026 Makerfield by-election. The by-election is a major event as it has ramifications on whom the next UK prime minister might be. Improved coverage of the candidate is therefore in the interest of the public and Wikipedia readers. For now, I'd like to please ask specifically for feedback on how to improve it to B-class standard. Thank you! 13tez (talk) 23:10, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

  • This article may be confusing to readers and could be expanded upon in terms of historical occurrences, causes, dating methods, how the info about these sites is utilized in different branches of science, and so on. A supplement list of ghost forest sites would be helpful to possibly relate them to the earthquakes/tsunamis/other sources that contributed to their formation.

Amplify Energy  (page view stats  edit  talk  history) - 8 daily hits

  • This article has strange prose. The flow of text throughout could be vastly improved, and some info could likely quite easily be removed as irrelevant. It currently acts more as a list of tangentially-related information, rather than a proper article about the company in question. There are also numerous direct links which should be properly cited. I have made some improvements, but more are required. Low number of daily hits, so not necessarily a priority, but adding it here as I edited it today. Husskeyy (talk) 09:21, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

  1. Oppose This article seems to have more than enough information for what it is ( a trademarked word used occasionally in sports), and adding more would only bloat the article. All it needs is splitting the large "Trademark" section and adding a few more references to it. For the rest of the article, references are provided, and it only really needs inline citations.
