This article is about a holiday that is celebrated on December 23rd. The Festivus article has been nominated 3 times in the past 14 years and I believe that the past 2 years of revisions to the article have significantly improved it enough to a point that it could be showcased for other readers to see. I hope that you accept this nomination quickly and we can get this out to everyone on Festivus! Happy Festivus Pastorma ( talk) 22:37, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
Nominators who are not significant contributors to the article should consult regular editors of the article before nominating it". You have only edited this once, and I don't see any evidence that you have contacted any of the regular editors. - SchroCat ( talk) 23:00, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
Oppose. This feels a good way short of FA status. The reference formatting is all over the place, and while some of the references are good (decent newspapers, scholarly publications), some of them really aren't. A quick glance at Google Scholar suggests that there are other research articles that could be incorporated. If you are keen to improve this article, it may be worth taking it through GAC first.

Coord note -- Per SchroCat, this could be simply removed on procedural grounds owing to lack of nominator involvement; because we have some comments that could aid improvement of the article, I'll archive it the normal fashion. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 22:40, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
