Review section
I am nominating this featured article for review for the following reasons;
- The archaeology section is a list which would be better served in prose.
- There is a controversy section, this info should be relocated elsewhere in the article.
- No section is called "Design" making it hard to find the architecture of the building. Instead that information is blended into a description of the modern workings of the building.
- No section is called "construction" so its hard to find the timeline of events while being built
- The Demonstrations section looks like a news item and should be removed.
- Note: Scottish Parliament was another FA by the same nominator, it was already delisted at FAR

- Agree with the comments here. In terms of the demonstration section, would argue this needs to be deleted. The demonstrations are not re the building but rather against the government, parties within or for a cause. If the demonstrations section is to be kept, then it would need an expansion to ensure sufficient coverage. To my mind, there have been dozens of demonstrations outside the Scottish Parliament ranging from issues for and against independence, to recent demonstrations over the Gender Recognition Bill. That aside perhaps the biggest omission from this article and why maybe it should not be FA anymore is it does not adequately cover the current building. As a recent visitor, there are numerous issues with the structure, much of it related to water ingress, a leaky roof and other building issues. Go one step further and one need only read the numerous news sources about lighting issues during debates that run pass standard opening hours... I would rate the article as B-class at present.

Review section
A 2005 FA last formally reviewed in 2008. Datedness and sourcing issues are present, as the article has not been well-maintained in recent years. Example include "Sikkim is known for its very low crime rate" sourced to a city police website from 2011 (who of course wants people to think the city is safe), very few post-1990 events in the history, a need to check the Nathu La content in the economy section for updating, statistics to fairly old sources in the utilities section, and a government section referring to 2009 events as the most recent election when there have been state elections in 2014 and 2019. These are only examples. There are good bones here, but it needs some TLC. Hog Farm Talk 18:01, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Review section
This 2007 FA has not been maintained to standards, and its FAC nominator has not edited for over a year. The main item of concern noticed on talk on 2023-01-25 is extreme datedness, but prose and short stubby sections also needs review. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:26, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC, needed improvements are not occurring. Hog Farm Talk 14:11, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC improvements are needed, but are not happening yet. Updates needed and short paragraphs are the main concerns, and the lede needs some work to be a more thorough summary of the whole article (and not have recent events added without formatting considerations.)

Review section
I am nominating this featured article for review because the history section is disorganised, is missing citations, and ends at 2010. This makes me believe that the article has not be substantially maintained, and editors will need to check the other sections (like events and participation) to ensure that the procedures of the event have not changed. Z1720 (talk) 16:29, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC no edits or comments to address my above concerns. Z1720 (talk) 15:38, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC - needs updating. For instance, the lead mentions a competition in Shanghai and a 2013 name change; neither appears to be mentioned in the article body. Hog Farm Talk 18:24, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
