The article was delisted by Nikkimaria via FACBot (talk) 7:46, 3 May 2025 (UTC) [1].

Notified: Alientraveller, Healthykid (original nominator), Waxworker, Bignole, JediLofty, WP Film, WP Science Fiction, WP Toys, WP Transformers, WP USA, WP Animation, noticed in June 2022

As an IP editor pointed out in mid-2022, this 2008 promotion is heavily reliant on low-quality sources, including various Transformers fansites such as Seibertron, Tformers, or Ben's World of Transformers. The original FAC nominator has not edited since 2008, and as of this writing, has apparently never edited this article. I do not believe that this article meets the featured article criteria, due to the reliance on sources that are not high-quality RS. Hog Farm _talk 01:44, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Move to FARC - issues unaddressed. Hog Farm _talk 14:54, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment - I also agree with the concerns about the low-quality sources and they should be replaced with secondary or third-party reliable sources per WP:V. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 00:57, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:42, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• About a month has passed since this review was listed by Hog Farm (talk · contribs) and the article is still having the usual sourcing problems despite multiple WikiProjects having being notified. Unfortunately, I think we should delist it per Nikkimaria's concerns unless we can address them. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 19:44, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Delist - one of the better source needed tags has been resolved, but there's been no sustained work and the sourcing issues are pretty systematic. Hog Farm _Talk 02:17, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Delist Sourcing concerns still present. Z1720 (talk) 17:58, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Closing note: This removal candidate has been delisted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please leave the {{featured article review}} template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through. Nikkimaria (talk) 17:46, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
