Frutiger Aero

Recently brought to GA by yours truly. 256k pageviews in the last 8 months (can't go further back because of a Main Page appearance and because it did not yet exist). Extrapolating to a year by multiplying by 12⁄8 gives 384k. Let me know if you have any questions! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 05:10, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

Wordle

Promoted to GA on April 21, 2025 by me. Received a staggering 8.9 million views in the past year. Nub098765 (talk) 07:03, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

 Verified: Major contributor, responded to GAN reviewer. No Main Page appearances detected in the last year. Rather curious toothy looking pageview pattern, almost a square wave with pageviews doubling for two weeks then dropping back. Don't know what to make of that. Assessing at a whopping 8.9 million pageviews. Awarded and HOF. – Reidgreg (talk) 21:57, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Call Me by Your Name (film)

Hello. This is a reaaally long time coming but I promoted this article back in 2018, and somehow it still got 1.4M views in the past year. It notched up 5M views by the time it was promoted in July 2018. Damian Vo (talk) 18:19, 31 May 2025 (UTC)

 Verified: Major contributor, saw GA review through. Taking the 365 days before promotion, estimating pageviews at 5.2 million. (Main Page appearances on 11 Feb 2018 and 12 Nov 2017 don't really register against the base pageviews.) Awarded and HOF. – Reidgreg (talk) 21:32, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

Baldwin IV of Jerusalem

Hello! 1.6 million views in the past year, does this qualify? Promoted this morning to GA :) Baldwin IV of Jerusalem [[1]] 🌷Reverosie🌷^★talk★ 18:44, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi, Reverosie. This is an unusual one. It qualifies on page views, but you have only 16.7% authorship of the page compared to the main contributor, who has 75.5%. Was the article a collaboration? I can see you were both editing around the same time. I think this is probably fine but I'd want a second opinion, so pinging Reidgreg. — ImaginesTigers (talk) 09:44, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Yes, this was a collaboration to some extent. @Surtsicna did most of the editing (major props to him; if I don't get the million award, please give it to him instead!!!), but I was the one who nominated and got the article to GA status 🌷Reverosie🌷^★talk★ 16:38, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

 Verified Apologies for the delay – congratulations to you both. Awarded and added to the Hall of Fame. — ImaginesTigers (talk) 18:42, 6 July 2025 (UTC)

Sorry to bother, but we got added to the featured hall of fame when the article is only at GA status 🌷Reverosie🌷^★talk★ 18:53, 6 July 2025 (UTC)

facepalm — ImaginesTigers (talk) 19:04, 6 July 2025 (UTC)

Fixed! — ImaginesTigers (talk) 19:06, 6 July 2025 (UTC)

I would say to award it to both, and to list both on the hall of fame if it qualifies for the full million. There are a few dozen collaborations on the hall of fame already, some with three or four editors. – Reidgreg (talk) 17:21, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Baldur's Gate 3

Hello. 1.3 million views over the past 12 months. Promoted today to GA. — ImaginesTigers (talk) 09:46, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Hogwarts Legacy

Hello, I just found about this. I worked on the stated article to push it to GA in 2023. In that year, it reached 3.8 million views. If we just go the date of GA status to the end of the year, it was still at 1 million views as well. Is that acceptable or am I too late for this? Vestigia Leonis (talk) 18:06, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

You are never too late to request a MA!

The complexity with this nomination is simply assessing views. The game released on 10 February 2023, shortly before the April promotion. If we discount all views from 30 days other side (1.3 mil and 1.1 mil=2.4 mil), we still have 1.5 million views. It is impressive to get a game through the GA process that soon after launch, and something I would expect to be contentious, so in the spirit of the Million Award, you certainly deserve one. My only concern is that I don't have enough experience to assess views here... My apologies, Reidgreg, but I'm once again pinging you in for a consult. — ImaginesTigers (talk) 19:19, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

 Done Assessed at 1 mil, awarded, and added to the HoF. — ImaginesTigers (talk) 21:58, 9 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for taking care of it! Vestigia Leonis (talk) 08:23, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
