The Orange Box Half-Life 2 · Half-Life 2: Episode One · Half-Life 2: Episode Two · Portal (video game) · Team Fortress 2

This is a clearly defined group of articles that are part of the The Orange Box bundle. No games are missing, and all games included belong in the bundle. Gary King (talk) 16:14, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support This looks good. The Orange Box is currently up as a FAC, so hopefully that goes through. ~ UBeR (talk) 16:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for the immediate moment Comment: Per Wikipedia:Featured topic criteria (and as the guy who originally suggested this) this nomination should be withdrawn as both EP1 and The Orange Box are currently featured article candidates. It should be renominated once both have finished their FACs, regardless of which way they end. -- Sabre (talk) 17:15, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's just a recommendation, not an actual criterion. ~ UBeR (talk) 17:55, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's still a recommendation I would suscribe to, as it is a valid point. We've got two FA's underway, its overkill to try to work on a FT at the same time. Once the FA's are done - whether they remain GA's or become FA's - then it should be renominated. I can't imagine that's going to be that long a time, both FA's have been active for a while. -- Sabre (talk) 18:29, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • I would say the Episode One nomination will be up for about three more weeks. Gary King (talk) 18:38, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        • I added that recommendation because topics did not meet the criteria and were being nominated with the hope that they will sometime in the future. This topic status with the criteria will not change with these FACs. Zginder 2008-05-14T20:46Z (UTC)
    • In that case, I'll withdraw the oppose. I can't reasonably put in a support, as I'm a major contributor to two of the articles. -- Sabre (talk) 20:58, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - Meets the criteria, so no "work" needs to be done to get this to standard.Judgesurreal777 (talk) 20:52, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- meets criteria, regardless of the outcome of content review. Another query, What is the proposed free image for use on the FT page? Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 21:09, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • We don't really have one. I shoved this onto the Orange Box talk page as a placeholder, it should do unless anyone comes up with something more suitable. I can make that image orange, but beyond that my ability to manipulate graphics like this is shockingly bad. -- Sabre (talk) 21:13, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
