Quidditch pitch (2 votes for, 4 against)
- Support: It is a great article that has loads of quotes and details -- Madam Hooch(Which Broomstick)
- Support: This article has everything it needs to be features (quotes, pictures, referencing etc...) but I also think it would be nice to have an article like this as featured- it's not a character article - but Quidditch is still an important part of the series. --Margiechocoholic 07:58, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
- Against: No where near ready. Were trying to clamp down on featured articles, so that only the very best are featured. This just doesnt qualify at the moment. Jayce Carver Talk 08:09, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
- Provisional oppose: I'm with Jayce on this one. I think there are a number of areas in the article that are in need of attention. The order in which information and pictures are presented doesn't strike me as entirely logical. For instance, there is a picture of the German stadium in the section on the Hogwarts pitch, and a picture of the Hogwarts pitch in the section on the Quidditch World Cup. It is also confusing to mention that Hogwarts has its own pitch in the "Usage" section after describing said pitch in the "Decoration" section. There should probably be a single, comprehensive section on the Hogwarts pitch, which describes its location, appearance, and use. A great way to expand the article a little more would be to add descriptions of all the stadiums from the Quidditch World Cup game to the "Known Quidditch Pitches" section. Also, the Quidditch World Cup game and the Potter novels shouldn't be mentioned in "International Pitches," as all sections except "Behind the scenes" should be written from an in-universe perspective. The introduction also needs to be expanded and should summarize information from throughout the entire article; information on the dimensions and layout of a typical pitch should probably be moved to a new section with a title like "Description." ★ Starstuff (Owl me!) 10:05, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose: It has a lot of info--probably all there is to get. But the organization & layout could do with some work. It may work after some clean-up. Quidditch Lover (My talk)(contribs) 01:47, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose It does not deserve to be featured. Featured articles must be only the almost perfect articles in this wiki and this article is nowhere near that standard. 96ken 18:19, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
