Support

  1. I support for the reasons stated below. This is a well written article and offers spectacular information over the nation of Guffingford; not to mention, this article has received an outstanding amount of traffic since it was first begun. In my opinion, I see no reason why this shouldn't be a featured article. Macabees 20:44, 29 December 2005 (GMT)
  2. I agree with Mac. It's getting even better. (Edit: And I think the OOC Preamble thing is one of the most original additions to an article we've seen for a while.) --Pacitalkia 00:20, 30 December 2005 (GMT)
  3. I'm also supporting this! Not only because I wrote everything, but it deserves a place on the featured articles list. And I'll see if I can improve the layout, I've been seriously messing around with the Wiki code. - Guffingford, posted on the last day of 2005! Guffingford 11:18, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
  4. I'm changing my vote to yes after Guffingford's changes which seriously improved it. → Ceo \ squawk 16:15, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
  5. As an in toto article, I'm not sure it's the example to set, but it is a well-composed, interesting read, and there's certainly plenty that would make for a good FA slot on the main page, as it's split into sections, so I'd support it. Out of interest, why did you take the colour out of the parties section at the bottom? I thought that looked better will colours than grey. Gruen2alk 17:50, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
  6. I support this article as being extremely well-written.Skinny 16:50, 3 February 2006 (GMT) 129.12.225.205 18:06, 23 January 2006 (GMT)
  7. I support this article because it is one of the the most detailed and well thought out history i have seen 82.35.114.43 11:50, 29 January 2006 (GMT)
  8. I support this article as it well-written and thought-out, with a detailed history section and a good use of photographs. 88.105.245.221 <- Me Praetonia 14:54, 14 February 2006 (GMT)

Neutral

  1. I find that although the content is brilliant, the layout is a bit difficult. → Ceo \ squawk 05:04, 30 December 2005 (GMT)

Comments/Questions

  • Ceo, I see your point. But what about the layout is difficult? --Pacitalkia 20:37, 30 December 2005 (GMT)
    • Yes, sorry I was a bit unclear. I mean that the mix of OOC, IC, OOC tags, tables without borders and such make it a bit hard to figure out what the nation is, what it stands for, what's important and what's not, etc. → Ceo \ squawk 20:45, 30 December 2005 (GMT)Edit: It looks better now. → Ceo \ squawk 16:15, 31 December 2005 (GMT)
  • I think the language with regards to Knootian independence could stand to be a little more NPOV. I'll try to fix a bit of it myself. --|Knoot|KNOOtalk 02:19, 3 January 2006 (GMT)

FAC

I decided to give this FAC status. I think it well deserves it, being the target of many viewers and readers, and moreover, well written and highly factual. So, in my opinion it deserves a go.

IP Voting

Votes 6, 7 and 8 cannot be counted until the voters login and account for their vote. Plus the explanations are all suspiciously similar... (( Pacitalkia )) Time sent: 18:34, 31 January 2006 (GMT)

REPLY!

The last two are Skinny and Praetonia I believe, the first one is unknown. And the fact the IPs are similar doesn't mean a thing. It seems all three are from the UK, and maybe on the same host.

Yes, sorry, one of those is mine. I keep forgetting to log into the damn website. Apologies Skinny 16:48, 3 February 2006 (GMT)

____________

Aye, one of those was me. Not sure which one though - I agree they are all very similar. I'll take number 8. If I was the other one then sorry to whoever was number 8. Also, the above psoter (not Skinny) is right about the IPs. They are UK IPs which are not a particularly large range. Praetonia 14:54, 14 February 2006 (GMT)
