This article is about the largest cat species, the tiger, a very influential animal in human history.

I see you have only made one edit to the article. You'll see in the instructions at
WP:FAC that "Nominators who are not significant contributors to the article should consult regular editors of the article before nominating it." Have you done that?Nominators are expected to be able to answer any and all questions abut the article - to be completely familiar with the subject matter: do you have access to the sources used in the article and are you in a position to answer such questions? -

@
SchroCat: I can answer any question you may throw at me, but should I ping regular editors of the page or should I become a regular editor myself, I mean there are still information that are missing.

If there is still information that is missing, then it shouldn't be listed at FAC.
FA criteria 1b. says articles must be "comprehensive: it neglects no major facts or details and places the subject in context". Are you saying this isn't comprehensive? -

Never mind what I said there, the article is finalized. The article is essentially complete, no other content needs to be added, it's a very satisfactory article, no improvements needed. Please assess the article. New information has not been added to the page for years.

Procedural oppose for the moment. The article may or may not be complete, but without the input of the main editors to support the nomination, this won't go anywhere. The fact there is a tag in the article doesn't help. -

Regrettably, I likewise oppose. This is my first time doing so at FA, but I firmly believe that article needs some major work before it can be considered for FA status. In addition to the nominator not being a major contributor (as discussed above), the article is sprinkled with seemingly irrelevant trivia. Certainly it is a fine GA, but I recommend withdrawal of this nomination and submission to PR instead, at least until the main authors respond to their summons.

I cannot comment about most of the article, but the "Relationship with humans" and "Cultural depictions" sections seem worse than the rest of the article: sources of poorer quality, lack of recent updates, possibly some
WP:WTW and
WP:SYNTH. I also spotted numerous grammar mistakes when skimming. It would be better if these GA-level issues were removed before nomination.
