Current Project
- Take One great film from each year to FA Status. Note: I developed Prometheus to FA but it isn't classed as a great film because it's not. Luckily Dredd was also released in 2012.
- I might make some substitutions, such as doing another 80s film in place of say a 2000s film because I never really got into Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, and there's so many bad sequels like Xmen 3 or Spider-Man 3, and just a lot of crap not worth my time. It's weird that you can go to any 80s year and find a bunch of classics and you get to the late 90s/2000s and just terrible.
1980s - 10/10 Completed - 100% FA
1990s - 9/10 Completed - 50% FA

2000s - 1/10 Completed - 10% FA
2010s - 3/10 Completed - 10% FA

Response for size to save me repeating myself every time
So I see you have raised
WP:SIZERULE
, it reads "Sometimes an article simply needs to be big to give the subject adequate coverage."
Rare examples would be something like
WP:SIZERULE, I fundamentally do not believe it is applied appopriately in this case and ask you to take that into consideration going forwards as while I will do my best to meet your requests I will not make an article subjectively worse to meet an arbitrary guideline that violates Featured Article Criterias 1b and 1c.
