Calculus

Nominator(s): Benison talk with me 14:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured article because the article is about one of the most important branch of mathematics. The article is complete, having good exemplary pictures, complete history of its development and the mathematical derivations on its major components. Benison talk with me 14:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose and suggest withdrawal. This article is almost devoid of inline citations (as indicated by the tag at the top of the page), and is nowhere near being ready for FAC. Sasata (talk) 15:44, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. I agree with Sasata in urging withdrawal. This is not referenced in a way that meets current FA expectations. The prose needs work throughout. And there's a further reading section that includes more sources than are even cited! This is a big, complex, core topic, and I would love to see it reach FA level. This isn't it. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 16:37, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Closing - As I told you after your previous nomination of a different article, nominators must consult with the principal contributors if they wish to nominate an article they have not edited. Nominators are expected to be intimately familiar with the article's content and sources, so that they can respond to queries and make any necessary improvements to the article; this is not possible if you have never edited the article and are taking a wikibreak for the next month. Please read WP:FAC and the featured article criteria before making any future nominations; this is not a productive use of anyone's time. Maralia (talk) 17:43, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
