http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_articles_all_languages_should_have
I created the above page for this specific purpose - en: has all these
articles (or something like them), but very few are up to featured
quality.
One problem I see with the FA process is that a lot of the articles
are incredibly esoteric. If you're a specialist in a field, you're
highly motivated to write a REALLY GOOD article about something you
know well. There seems to be less motivation to get the *really
general* articles up to featured status. God help the person who tries
to get [[Earth]] past the present FAC process and keep it under 200KB.

You should see what we've done with [[Human]]. It will be ready for
the FAC process soon enough.
