The article was quite long at exactly 15,000 words. I think information can be spun out into existing or new articles, and the prose summarised more effectively here. This includes information about Kubrick's work on specific movies, which probably belong in the movie's articles. Z1720 (talk) 02:50, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Perhaps the Elvis Presley article should be delisted too for being too long then.. That's an FA. You expect articles on icons like Kubrick, Elvis and Sinatra to be long and detailed. This could be trimmed a fair bit, agreed, but running straight to GAR seems unnecessary. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:48, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

• @Dr. Blofeld: If other articles do not fulfil their respective criteria, I suggest that editors take appropriate steps. Any article that doesn't fulfil the criteria is eligible for GAR/FAR, although I try not to send articles with minor concerns (like ones with one citation needed). If editors wish to change or clarify the GA criteria, please go to WT:GA. For this article, I think the article is too long and needs to go through a process of spinning out or summarising information for this to retain its GA status.

And you forget that the FA for Taylor Swift is larger by half than Elvis. ErnestKrause (talk) 10:17, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

• Hold. Nikkimaria has been editing the article to address the length concerns. Z1720 (talk) 16:05, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
