Suicide[edit]

I found this (by chance), but it's clearly very detailed and comprehensive. I don't personally see any reason why it couldn't be considered as a FA.--Joewithajay 22:54, May 22, 2005 (UTC)

  • Object the empty sections indicate to me that this is still a work in progress. It also has an insufficient lead and no clear references. Let the author finish it and send it to peer review--nixie 23:10, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • I didn't see the empty spaces before, yes you're right. --Joewithajay 09:33, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. Good article but with empty sections and a "please expand" notice it's not ready to be a feature article. Cedars 10:04, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Also, once those parts are expanded the whole thing needs to be refactored. What is especially needed is the creation of daughter articles where much of the detail can be held. Summaries of those daughter articles would be at Suicide. That may even be a good idea to do now, given the size of the article, but those summaries would be incomplete. --mav 11:54, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object - incomplete. Also needs to have an expanded hotline section to make it more international (it only covers the US). - Ta bu shi da yu 05:12, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object Not only is it a work-in-progress, but I'm not sure this kind of article should be plastered on the Main Page as a FAotD. --Kitch 14:02, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Surely it is not in line with NPOV to refer to an article on suicide as "this kind of article" (or at least, I would have said so until it started including links on how to go about an attempt, now I might have to VERY grudingly agree... adam black 2005 July 5 01:54 (UTC)
