Overview of Ben&Ben

Ben&Ben are a Filipino indie folk-pop band from Manila. A recipient of numerous accolades, their musical style has garnered praise for its anthemic quality and emotional engagement that appeals to a broad audience, while their lyrics focus on subjects including loss, heartbreak and relationship, and the journey towards self-love. They were formed in 2016 by twin brothers Paolo and Miguel Benjamin Guico (lead vocals and acoustic guitars), and later expanded into an ensemble, adding Poch Barretto (electric guitar), Keifer Cabugao (violin), Patricia Lasaten (keyboards), Toni Muñoz (percussion), Andrew de Pano (percussion), Agnes Reoma (bass guitar), and Jam Villanueva (drums). They have released two studio albums and one extended play. With more than two billion streams thus far, Ben&Ben have been named the most-streamed Filipino artist of all time on Spotify.

This is an overview of the career and achievements of Filipino indie-folk band Ben&Ben. My co-nominator, GWL, brought their discography article to featured status in February 2022. I then began working on the main article this year and continued with its related lists and with all relevant articles now promoted to featured status, I believe this now meets WP:FT criteria. Happy to address your comments and thanks to all who take the time to review. --Pseud 14 (talk) 15:35, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Dwarf planets

A dwarf planet is a small planetary-mass object that is in direct orbit around the Sun, massive enough to be gravitationally rounded, but insufficient to achieve orbital dominance like the eight classical planets of the Solar System. The prototypical dwarf planet is Pluto, which was regarded as a planet before the "dwarf" concept was adopted in 2006.

Demoted in 2020 once Ceres lost its Featured status, that article getting its star back, along with how all the nine that appear atop the Dwarf planet article are Good or better, should be enough for this topic to be restored. --igordebraga ≠ 05:25, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

• Support - Good to see this complete again. Maybe also consider renominating the Asteroid belt GT as well? It was demoted for the same reason as this one. -- ZooBlazer 20:24, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
• Support: Per nom. Idiosincrático (talk) 08:09, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
• Support: I brought this one up on the talk page a while back, but didn't feel up to re-nominating it. I'm a bit iffy about the inclusion of IAU definition of planet- it feels off-topic, to me. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by SilverTiger12 (talk • contribs)
  • Kept that article simply because it was in the original topic. igordebraga ≠ 03:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

  I'd suggest removing it as not really part of the topic. SilverTiger12 (talk) 21:26, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

  I think it's relevant to include since the IAU established the concept of a dwarf planet in 2006. Reywas92^Talk 23:42, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

• Delegate comment: @ZooBlazer and Idiosincrático: do either of you have an opinion on whether IAU definition of planet should be included? Aza24 (talk) 02:18, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

  Probably not needed after all. It isn't exclusively about dwarf planets, so it may be outside the topic's scope, but if others feel it should remain, I won't fight it. -- ZooBlazer 07:37, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

  All things considered, IAU definition of planet should not be included. I share Blazer's position. Idiosincrático (talk) 08:15, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

• Support Brilliant topic and work and I'd agree with the others that the IAU definition of a planet article probably doesn't need to be included. NapHit (talk) 23:38, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
• Since four people have requested so, removed IAU definition of planet. igordebraga ≠ 19:10, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
• Drive by support - I love the quality of planetary articles. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:52, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
• Support. Glad to know people can read high-quality articles about dwarf planets. TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 19:30, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
• Support - Per nom. It's always nice seeing the littler members of the Solar System receive due recognition! I will point out that there was a recent debate over whether Orcus should be listed as a "consensus dwarf planet" or not, with a tentative conclusion that it is better treated as a borderline object like 120347 Salacia, so Orcus may have to be removed from the topic. ArkHyena (talk) 06:30, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
  • If so, removing it just to be safe. igordebraga ≠ 18:15, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
• Support, though I feel this is one that'll have to be changed a lot in the coming decades! Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 17:16, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
• Support; good work and, FWIW, I agree with removing IAU definition of planet. ^Queenof_Hearts 19:15, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
• Closing with consensus to promote.--NØ 06:20, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
