673:(E/C) No he didn't "let anyone" nominate it until he thought it was complete, which it now is according to him. The main contributor is usually the one with the most time and effort invested into the articles, and usually the one with a high knowledge of what makes the topic complete. It is only right that the original creator and developer, the one who has invested the most time in the topic. Anyway, not the place for it, bring up a comment at FTC (and remove the discussion from here), this is not the place for this. Regards. 216: 207: 198: 189: 180: 171: 162: 153: 144: 135: 126: 117: 108: 99: 90: 81: 72: 61: 659:
There's nothing wrong with that. If an editor works on a series of articles, writes them, and builds them, why isn't he allowed to wait until he's reached his goal before letting someone nominate it or doing it himself?

A comprehensive, consistent and coordinated series of articles on this campaign. Cla68's work here has been stellar.
23: 738: 386:, so, I'll probably include them in that topic once it's ready, add them to this one, or both, if that's permissible. 183: 120: 649: 454: 138: 289: 715: 511: 383: 215: 210: 206: 197: 188: 179: 170: 161: 152: 143: 134: 129: 125: 116: 111: 107: 98: 89: 80: 71: 60: 604: 638:
But the main contributor ignored the rules and would not let it be nominated until all the GA's were FA's.
734: 664: 468: 305: 192: 502:- truly amazing, will be up there as one of the best featured topics Knowledge has. And as a comment, as 84: 285: 93: 64: 548:– this is quite a collection, its not every day you get to see 18 interlinked featured articles. -- 587: 536: 405: 368: 347: 323: 156: 600: 263:

Nick provided a lot of valuable help during this effort that is much appreciated.
