Nominating featured lists in Wikipedia Welcome to featured list candidates! Here, we determine which lists are of a good enough quality to be featured lists (FLs). Featured lists exemplify Wikipedia's very best work and must satisfy the featured list criteria. Before nominating a list, nominators may wish to receive feedback by listing it at peer review. This process is not a substitute for peer review. Nominators must be sufficiently familiar with the subject matter and sources to deal with objections during the featured list candidate (FLC) process. Those who are not significant contributors to the list should consult regular editors of the list before nomination. Nominators are expected to respond positively to constructive criticism and to make an effort to address objections promptly. A list should not be listed at featured list candidates and another review process at the same time. Nominators should not add a second featured list nomination until the first has gained substantial support and reviewers' concerns have been substantially addressed. The featured list director, Giants2008, or his delegates, PresN and Hey man im josh, determine the timing of the process for each nomination. Each nomination will typically last at least twenty days, but may last longer if changes are ongoing or insufficient discussion or analysis has occurred. For a nomination to be promoted to FL status, consensus must be reached that it meets the criteria. The directors determine whether there is consensus. A nomination will be removed from the list and archived if, in the judgment of the director who considers a nomination and its reviews:
It is assumed that all nominations have good qualities; this is why the process focuses on finding and resolving problems in relation to the criteria, rather than asserting the positives. Declarations of support are not as important as finding and resolving issues, and the process is not simply vote-counting. Once the director or delegate has decided to close a nomination, they will do so on the nominations page. A bot will update the list talk page after the list is promoted or the nomination archived, typically within the day, and the Purge the cache to refresh this page – Table of contents – Closing instructions |

Nominations urgently needing reviews
The following lists were nominated almost 2 months ago and have had their review time extended because objections are still being addressed, the nomination has not received enough reviews, or insufficient information has been provided by reviewers to judge whether the criteria have been met. If you have not yet reviewed them, please take the time to do so: |
Nominations

Verification check MrLinkinPark333
Prose
- "sixth largest by land area" - Needs an extra source to specify the territories as it's eighth overall. Stats Canada combines the provinces with the territories
- "Cities, towns and villages... minimum population of 7,500" - Needs page numbers (page 1 and page 27).
- "although Flin Flon, part of which is in the neighbouring province of Saskatchewan," - Stats Canada lists this as Flin Flon (Part) but does not specify the other part is in Saskatchewan.
- Manitoba's capital and largest city -> Manitoba's largest city (as Stats Canada doesn't specify that Winnipeg is the capital of Manitoba).
- the two largest cities has wards," -> two cities have wards (as the election source doesn't state population).
Table
- Citation #9 (MHS Resources: Manitoba Communities) doesn't mention any of the incorporation dates and can be removed. The source next to each date are sufficient enough for verification.
- The Regions need a citation.
- Citation needed for the note saying Flin Flon is in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
- Pop. densities need a slight fix based on Stats Canada source: Flin Flon 376.1, Morden 609.6, Winkler 663.1
--MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 21:21, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333 Partially done: I've gone ahead and made some changes, but I could not find an extra source in land area. Please let me know what can be done about that. Regarding the regions, my assumption is that it would be WP:SKYBLUE because this can be verified just based on their geographic locations, and is what I'm guessing to be the reason why my also recently-nominated List of cities in New Brunswick passed without requiring citations for the counties each city belong to in there. B3251(talk) 23:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- In regards to land area, I think an extra source that specifically states the names of the 10 provinces could help. This could be placed adjacent to the Stats Canada source, as it says Canada, provinces and territories. For the regions, I'm not sure if it's pass common knowledge per "easily verified by a non-specialized map". This doesn't have regions while this uses different regions..Otherwise:
- The Government of Manitoba source also needs page 1 to show the 1996 Municipal Act..
- sixth largest by land area" -> might want to reword to "sixth largest province by land area" to avoid confusion.
- The Canadian Encyclopedia source can be reused for the note for Flin Flon in the table.
- The Population densities still need adjusting.
- MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 23:52, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333: Done B3251(talk) 16:55, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- You're almost there:
- The archived Government of Manitoba source from 2009 doesn't list Winkler and Morden as cities of Pembina Valley.
- The archived Government of Manitoba source uses Northern and Winnipeg Capital regions, instead of Northern Manitoba and Winnipeg Metropolitan. Perhaps an extra source with these names can be added here, especially since Winnipeg Capital was renamed Winnipeg Metropolitan.
- I'm not sure if the archived Government of Manitoba source is 100% clear that Selkrik is also in Winnipeg Capital. The two sources showing Interlake & Winnipeg Capital could help here.
- Still need a source about sixth largest province to show the ten provinces. This can be placed next to the Stats Canada source.
- MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 19:07, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333
- The archived Government of Manitoba source from 2009 doesn't list Winkler and Morden as cities of Pembina Valley.
- If I were to guess for this situation, the map was most likely initially created before both cities were incorporated. I just used the Pembina Valley region map to clarify this because it shows both communities.
- Regarding the other sources, I'm having a difficult time with finding sources for specifically the names and I'm both confused and unsure of what to do. One moment please. B3251(talk) 14:43, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @B3251: Have you addressed all of @MrLinkinPark333's concerns yet? Just following up, not pressuring or rushing you. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:47, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi @Hey man im josh, almost. I've had trouble with finding sources to address the following of MrLinkinPark333's concerns:
- Source for Manitoba being the sixth-largest province in land area, with a specific focus on the ten provinces.
- Source that specifically names certain regions exactly like their article counterparts: Winnipeg Metropolitan Region and Northern Manitoba.
- B3251(talk) 20:32, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- With the sixth-largest province in land area, yoo can keep the Statistics Canada source and add a source naming the ten provinces next to it. If you're having trouble finding sources using Winnipeg Metropolitan Region and Northern Manitoba, you could use the Government of Manitoba naming instead and pipe them to the article names. I have been in your situation before with having difficultly finding exact sources. It's not just you :) MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 23:18, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh
- Could you add a reference that helps verify note a? I understand you explain it in the lead, but it could be beneficial to name the references and add them to the note
- Consider changing 2021 Census of Population to 2021 Canadian census, so match the target article
- Can we come up with a better title than "total cities" for the row that sums up the stats?
- Consider adding a note, possibly in a note next to "Manitoba" in the bottom row of the table, that explains the total population includes xyz
- Ref 9 – Inconsistent when compared ot the other city website sources, move the entry for the "publisher" parameter to "website" for consistency among similar references
- Ref 10 – Publisher is unnecessary and adding it makes it inconsistent with ref 1.
- Ref 1 – Move the entry for publisher to the website or work parameter (based on Template:Cite web, this seems more appropriate)
That's what I've got for now. Please ping me when you reply. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:31, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Hey man im josh: Partially done: first three done, please let me know what you think. I have a couple of questions:
- Regarding your request to add a note explaining total population including 'xyz', do you mean that the total population of Manitoba includes the listed cities?
- Ref 9 can be replaced with news sources such as 1 / 2 (same agency). Let me know if you think this would be preferable.
- I'll get everything else done once I hear back just for extra clarity. Thanks! B3251(talk) 17:00, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @B3251: Sorry, I had a lot of pings and I missed a few I needed to respond to. As for the point of clarification, I was suggesting a note to clarify where the rest of the total, not including the listed cities, comes from. For ref 9, the source itself isn't the issue, it's that you used publisher, which default to non-italicized text, whereas your other citations to city websites used the website/work parameter, which defaults to italicized. I made the change myself though, which means the references to City of X are now consistently italicized. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:56, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Hey man im josh Hi josh, thanks for clarifying for me and also making that adjustment. Regarding the clarification note for Manitoba's total population, would you consider it acceptable for the note to state that the rest of the population comes from Manitoba's other municipalities etc? Thanks, B3251(talk) 16:32, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah that's fine @B3251. I just want a note that answers the inevitable question of "where's the rest of that population number come from?" Hey man im josh (talk) 18:45, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Pinging @B3251 as a follow up. Hey man im josh (talk) 11:54, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Alavense
- Manitoba currently has 137 municipalities, out of which ten are categorized as cities - As per MOS:NUMNOTES: "Comparable values nearby one another should be all spelled out or all in figures, even if one of the numbers would normally be written differently".
- Could something be said about regions? They are introduced in the table with no previous mention.
- the smallest by land area is Dauphin which covers - A comma is missing before "which".
- I think it's a bit weird to have Population (2016) under 2021 Canadian census.
- Nothing is said about the functions of cities or municipalities at large. I think that would come in handy.
That's what I saw, B3251. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 09:17, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Alavense Changed two of these, though I have some comments in response to other points which can correspond more with List of cities in New Brunswick, which I had passed around 1-2 months ago.
- Regions: I'm unsure if regions have to be mentioned prior because the list is about cities specifically, not the regions. The regions are just included in the table to show where geographically the cities are located.
- I had this with the New Brunswick list which was fine (though someone recently changed this with 2023 redistribution data instead). The 2016 population is included under the 2021 census because the Canadian census includes the 2016 data themselves for population comparison.

Drive-by comment
- I still view this as a fork for List of municipalities in Manitoba as I did with the New Brunswick page. Perhaps if it included something different like former cities? As it is, it's just copied from the main list. Also splitting the gallery seems like an odd choice. Mattximus (talk) 22:23, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @B3251: Please respond to the above when you get a chance. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:00, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Alavense @Hey man im josh I feel that Hwy43 explained this better than I ever could in my nomination for New Brunswick. If it seems necessary to include former cities I can, but the New Brunswick nomination, which has two less cities than this list, ultimately passed without adding former cities (mostly just two cities that amalgamated with Saint John). B3251(talk) 17:32, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I guess you intended to ping Mattximus here. Alavense (talk) 07:09, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I read the previous nomination and it was suggested by another user to add both former cities, and explain why some municipalities have the qualifications for a city but are not cities. Both suggestions were not made before promotion. I would echo that these should be included in this article and the other one before promotion. Otherwise it's just a fork. Mattximus (talk) 15:35, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do still think that the way Wikipedia handles Canadian cities vs. municipalities lists needs some rethinking, but given prior precedents, this meets the criteria for promotion. I would urge the nominator to differentiate the cities lists as bit more from the municipalities lists. Promoting. --PresN 21:38, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- Drive-by accessibility comments
- Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding
!scope=row
to each primary cell, e.g.| 1987
becomes!scope=row | 1987
(on its own line). If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use!scope=rowgroup
instead. This is needed for both tables.- OK.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:21, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding
!scope=col
to each header cell, e.g.! Year
becomes!scope=col | Year
. If the cell spans multiple columns with a colspan, then use!scope=colgroup
instead. This is for the 4-division table.- I think this is what you want.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:24, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- The header cell needs to be in its own separate line. i.e. move the University winner's name to a new line. This should fix the problem. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:58, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- I still think that the first sentence is not clear enough. In general, I feel the first paragraph is a bit convoluted, in my opinion. For the tables, wouldn't it be better to use a dagger and background colour instead of just bold. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 09:08, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- I am trying to determine if the convoluted paragraph was because of two different emphases. I have split the first paragraph. Could you tell me if both halves are convoluted.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 10:27, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Is there an example of a table that uses the dagger and background color that you suggest. Is this combination in keeping with MOS and accessibility policies?-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 10:29, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, the thing is I don't think it complies with MOS as it is, as MPGuy2824 already pointed out. I'd get rid of the bold and include, instead, a symbol and a background colour. You have more information regarding symbols and the legend here: MOS:LEGEND. Besides, this and this could serve you as examples of how it is done, given that they were recently promoted.

Comments
- Drive-by comments
- Since the list is about missions, the mission column should be made the primary one in the "Alphabetical mission types".
- That same table should be made sortable on par with the other tables in the list.
- Also, the tables that I checked didn't have table captions.
- In the cancelled missions table, Apollo 12 planning seems to be the same as the "As flown" data. What makes this a cancelled mission?
- That same table is missing row and column scope for the header cells. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:45, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Done. I added a note about Apollo 12, since it doesn't seem there was a formal designation change but rather a change in plans. ~ Matthewrb Talk to me · Changes I've made 04:40, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
In addition to MPGuy2824's comment above:
- Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting
|+ caption_text
as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting|+ {{sronly|caption_text}}
instead. You have it on the alphabetical table but not the others. - Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions. This is not a full review, and does not result in a support vote. --PresN 13:48, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@The Herald and Matthewrb: This nomination is reaching the point where it's going to be closed for lack of response; if you haven't already, please reach out to interested editors or wikiprojects to review. --PresN 21:51, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a big shame, but at this point the nomination has been open for 2 months without any votes one way or another, so I'm going to have to close it.

- wikilink "calves".
- "The missions have different layouts and are in different states of conservation," End the sentence here.
- "around the spectacular Iguazu Falls" - Use a number (length/height/other) instead of "spectacular".
- "On the Brazilian side".
- "created by the hunter-gatherer communities." Remove "the".
- "In additional to" -> "In addition to"
- "The oldest art in the cave dates to the 10th millennium BP, while the youngest traces of inhabitants at the site were dated to around 700 CE." Since you are using an actual date in the end, I would suggest that the "10th millenium BP" be converted to "8th millenium BCE".
- "It is a breeding ground for the southern right whale and the conservation efforts have helped the recovery of the once widely-hunted species"
- "valley by the hunter-gatherer communities and early farmers," - Remove "the"
- "as movement
sof messengers," - "Clandestine Centre of Detention, Torture, and Extermination." - no need to capitalize any of those since it isn't part of the name.

The national symbols of Nigeria represent the country's identity, heritage, and values, reflecting its cultural diversity and historical journey.

- The scope for "National days" needs to be "rowgroup".
- The images in the table need alts.
- Most of the refs are missing archive links.
- Unless you can find some official source for this, you should remove the row about the National Dish. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:41, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Thank you so much for your feedback. Please can you make bullet 1 clearer for me, I couldn't quite understand that one. Heh, you literally read my mind for the national dish, I, for one, wanted to remove it initially, but I just thought I should hear from others. I'm taking that off and doing the other fixes you pointed out. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:47, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Edit the section which has the table. Right at the top of the code for the table you'll see a line "|+". Add the table caption after the two symbols. Hope that explains it. If my explanation isn't clear then try looking at a recent FL promotion with a table. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 12:48, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Thanks for explaining, I've fixed that and every other thing you pointed out at this time. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:08, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I haven't checked the rest, but some archive links are still missing. Consider installing User:Lingzhi2/reviewsourcecheck-sb.js, at least temporarily.

- "calls upon Nigerians to stand".
- "where the country is considered a public matter with officials being elected." - needs a rewrite.
- "was re-adopted on 29 May 2024,"
- "colloquially called October First, " - can be eliminated from the sentence.
- "subsequent detention and death became symbols of the struggle for democracy" - according to the source's headline, Abiola became the symbol, not his detention or death.
- "military parades, religious services, and public speeches are common on this day." - Make this a separate sentence.
- wikilink "decimalisation".
- The scope for the National bird should be "row", not "rowgroup".
- The notes section of the Naira should be reduced IMO.
- "found abundantly in Nigeria's forests and on its riverbanks."
- That's all I got. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:45, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Thank you so much, I fixed all now except for I don't think the notes section of the Naira is too extensive. I hope you'd be okay with that. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:25, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Any updates on this one? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:04, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- To clarify my objection in the section below (SafariScribe's comments), I think you need to define the scope of this list somehow. It should be clear to a future editor whether a new symbol (whatever it is) should be a part of this particular list or not. Based on that definition, it will be clear whether to remove or keep the National Theatre. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:16, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Commenting on the completeness of this list, I'd say that let's take, for example, the National dish which I removed already, while not an officially declared national symbol, a President might just come tomorrow and declare it to be so, maybe not now. This also applies to any of those other symbols that some sources listed (which are not official national symbols yet). So, maybe indicating that the list might be expanded in the future would help?
- For the national theatre, like I said earlier, I am inclined to removing it because of several research I have done. I found two sources, this one at page 179, section "Official symbols", and this one at page 295, section 3.0. These two sources mention two more symbols which I will add to this list now, but none of them mentioned either the Seal of the President or the National Theatre as a national or official symbol. I, as a matter of fact, consider these sources more reliable than Legit.ng's list, because Legit.ng actually mentions the arm forces flag as a national symbol (while also mentioning the seal and the theatre), which is not exactly so, based on my current compilation and research. Legit is the only one that mentions the National Theatre as a symbol, while I found a source from a predatory journal which mentions the Seal of the President, but well, like I said, "predatory", I can't cite that in the first place. I'd be pinging @SafariScribe: in this regard because there is a clearer ground on removing the seal and the national theatre and adding the Constitution of Nigeria, National Identity Card, and the Nigerian Passport as national/official symbols. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 16:34, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Vanderwaalforces, if there is a consensus to remove them, then proceed. However, I have supported this list because it looks good to me and meets FL guidelines. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 17:48, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Based on that definition, it will be clear whether to remove or keep the National Theatre. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:16, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Thanks for suggesting that tool, it helped me figure out the missing ones. I have fixed them now. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:48, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I haven't checked the rest, but some archive links are still missing. Consider installing User:Lingzhi2/reviewsourcecheck-sb.js, at least temporarily. It shows that and other problems with references. (Once you install it, there will be a "Show ref check" in the tools section of any wikipage. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 13:49, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Thanks for explaining, I've fixed that and every other thing you pointed out at this time. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:08, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Edit the section which has the table. Right at the top of the code for the table you'll see a line "|+". Add the table caption after the two symbols. Hope that explains it. If my explanation isn't clear then try looking at a recent FL promotion with a table. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 12:48, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 Thank you so much for your feedback. Please can you make bullet 1 clearer for me, I couldn't quite understand that one. Heh, you literally read my mind for the national dish, I, for one, wanted to remove it initially, but I just thought I should hear from others. I'm taking that off and doing the other fixes you pointed out. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:47, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Drive by comments
- Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't see how Ref 1 is verifying this sentence- "The national symbols of Nigeria represent the country's identity, heritage, and values, reflecting its cultural diversity and historical journey."
- Author name is missing for Refs 11, 24, 26, 36, 40.
- Ref 2 has two authors. Adrianna Simwa is not mentioned in the citation.
- Author names for Ref 25 might need some change. There are 2 authors- Shehnaz Khan and Trish Adudu.
- Central Bank of Nigeria is wikilinked in Ref 38, but not in Refs 10 and 14. Nitro Absynthe (talk) 16:37, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SafariScribe
- Interesting!
The Naira symbol, ₦, is derived from the initial letter of Nigeria with a double stroke.
needs a source- Are you certain the symbols are complete? You seemed to be missing "The National Theatre"
- Also the "Seal of the Nigerian President": It was first used in 1979 during the regime of Shehu Shagari, and was not used from 1983 to 1999. The seal was then reinitiated in 1999. (Cited to this source)
- Thank you for your comments.
The sky is blue
for example, does not need a source, right? I'm not sureThe Naira symbol, ₦, is derived from the initial letter of Nigeria with a double stroke.
is something that needs a source because it is obvious, but I have a source I can cite for that. The National Theatre and the seal of the President are not "national symbol" per se. The source you mentioned is the only that claims that. For example, the seal of the Nigerian President is more or less a child of the coat of arms, so I'd rather call the coat of arms the national symbol, than the seal. I was actually going to mention the seal in the coat of arms notes BTW, but I think I later changed my mind. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 16:13, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]- @Vanderwaalforces, when you want to respond to a comment like his, you may want to reply each review, that the reviewer mayn't have to check them.

Talk! 18:16, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for your comments.
- The Seal and the theatre are national symbols, and I will like to see them in the list before concluding. Aside that, the rest of the article looks good.
- @SafariScribe: Thank you for your comments. I have addressed all these by now. --Vanderwaalforces (talk) 23:53, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks fine to me. I am happy to support.Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 00:11, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Safari Scribe: I don't see why the seal of the president and the national arts theatre are there in this list at all. We wouldn't put the Taj Mahal in a similar list for India, or the Saint Basil's Cathedral for Russia, even though they are popular cultural symbols. In addition, the seal of the president is essentially the national Coat of arms. What stops us from adding the flag of the Nigerian Navy to this list? -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:59, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 I literally disputed SS, because I thought exactly the same thing you just said. But I later saw a source that claimed the Seal was a national symbol, but it was from a predatory journal I couldn’t cite. I definitely would not consider the Nigerian Navy’s flag as a national symbol.
- Correctly pinging @SafariScribe. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:16, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824, of course the Nigerian Navy flag cannot be considered a national symbol. According to this source, a national or official symbol is something that makes a country unique and identifies it among others. While I am certain that the National Theatre is a national symbol, I have some doubts about the Sea of the President. However, since it identifies the President who is the supreme authority in the country, it can be considered a symbol as well (official). For example, many bishops have their own coat of arms, which helps identify them, just as the Pope does. I have no objections if anyone disputes the Seal of the Nigerian President as a national symbol. @Vanderwaalforces, the source I cited herein contains comprehensive information about these national symbols, so I recommend it during source reviewing. Cheers! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 09:35, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @SafariScribe perhaps you’re not careful. The source you mentioned is one of the publications I cited already, while that source not only said “Here are some”, it also does not even mention the Seal of the Nigerian President nor the National Theatre as a symbol, at least, based on page 295. Like I said earlier, I found a source (which is not the one you mentioned) that mentioned the seal (not the national theatre) as a national symbol, but it is from a predatory journal and I couldn’t cite it. I am very inclined to revert back to my original version (without the seal and theatre), but let me hear from others. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:58, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Vanderwaalforces, provided that the Seal and National Theatre are properly sourced to a reliable source, I am good to go. If there is any argument about the Seal and Theatre, it should go to the talk page. Reverting to the original version may be disruptive as it was from a reviewer. Objections therefore should be a matter of whether the article meets the FL guidelines or not. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 10:06, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

asilvering - source check
- not source-check related, but are there really no other categories this could be in?
- I checked Special:Diff/1242228212.
- Martins 2019: absolutely not. The very first sentence is
The name Nigeria is a combination of two words – Niger and Area.
- a real howler! Then there's an obvious grammar error in the first paragraph ("haven" for "having"), not to mention that most of this is word soup. If there's any fact-checking or editorial oversight here they were all asleep at the wheel. - Legit.ng: what makes this a reliable source? Isn't there a government source that would be better for this info?
- Flagmakers UK: not a great source for this info, just remove this one
- Tel Aviv Embassy, "Who designed the Nigerian flag?": I don't doubt that they're correct, but surely there's a better source for this, like a historian or a newspaper article?
- Odesola: er, this is someone complaining about how the coat of arms doesn't represent any of the things it's supposed to. It's an opinion piece. Not sure it belongs here?
- Tel Aviv Embassy, "The National Pledge": as before, surely correct, but also there's surely a better source?
the eagle, reflects the country's strength and resilience
source says "strength and vision". But I don't think this is a great source, anyway.
Ok, that's just the lead, but I'll stop here - I think it would be a good idea to revisit the sources used in this article and ensure it's only using the best possible ones. -- asilvering (talk) 19:32, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Asilvering Thanks for getting to this :)
- I have seen similar lists that are in one or two categories only.
- See a clearly defined editorial process for this journal here, so I consider it generally reliable, even though I agree with you on the grammar error.
- Legit.ng is generally reliable because it falls under the umbrella of WP:RS especially that they exhibit values of a WP:NEWSORG, so they are generally reliable.
- I removed this one, thank you.
- I replaced with better ones.
- Removed.
- This source is reliable but this piece is clearly labelled as an opinion, even though it states some facts about the Pledge. Would it not be reason to cite this for just that claim which it clearly and correctly verifies, no?
- I modified this one to better represent Legit.ng as it is a generally reliable source.

- Sorry @Vanderwaalforces, I really think the Martins 2019 source is no good - the presence of an editorial board doesn't change that. For truly uncontroversial, nearly WP:SKYBLUE-type statements ("the emblem is displayed prominently on official documents"), well, I suppose I won't complain. But a source that just invents a fake fact in the very first sentence shouldn't be relied on for anything that could possibly be disputed. -- asilvering (talk) 19:44, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Source review from Averageuntitleduser
I had written this up, and it's different enough that I might as well post it. And a prose comment to begin.
These symbols include the national flag, coat of arms, anthem, and pledge, as well as the national flower, animal, currency, etc.
— suggest replacing "etc." with a more formal expression like "among others".Supporting the shield are two white horses, symbolising dignity and strength.
— remove “dignity”.reflecting the country's aspiration for harmony among its diverse ethnic groups.
— unverified, and I think it's too detailed to infer. Suggest re-citing or removing.This emblem is displayed prominently on official documents, government buildings, and currency, serving as a powerful symbol of national identity, unity, and pride for Nigerians.
andThis anthem is performed at official events, national holidays, and significant ceremonies.
— I feel uneasy with these two sentences being unsourced and encourage you to try to find citations. I might accept them if "prominently" and "serving as a powerful symbol of national identity, unity, and pride for Nigerians" were removed from the first, as these are less quantifiable, but I will have to think about it.- Re-cite Investopedia per the RSN (and it would be best to source 1 January and 1958). The sources given by Investopedia or a newspaper would probably suffice.
- Grouping these together, as they should be fairly straightforward to re-cite to something like a news article. I can't find much evidence for the reliability of Financial Source, Symbols.com, Symbol Hunt, and CRW Flags, and their sites do little to convince me.
I will have another look through tonight. Otherwise, thanks for this well-written, accessible resource about Nigeria! Averageuntitleduser (talk) 21:03, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Averageuntitleduser Thanks for looking and the comments, I have actioned the above as of this time. For the point 4, I added appropriate sources that back the statements up. I replaced CRW Flags and Financial Source, removed Symbols.com and Symbol Hunt. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:14, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @Averageuntitleduser Hi there, finding out if you got a chance? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 23:29, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Apologies, yes! Here goes, based on this revision.
- I'm very skeptical of Martins 2019, and I don't think I can look past its isssues. The prose is confusing and riddled with grammatical errors, and the analysis doesn't convince me: "It is, therefore, imperative to exhibit the value of producing what we need, and consume what we produce, which is falling in love with made in Nigerian products, which logically implies fall in love with Nigeria which will drastically save the nation's foreign exchange, and thereby enhance the nation's foreign reserve." I'm just not sure it's very usable.
- I'm having trouble finding information about IMUNA, and "Najeriya" appears to be a more popular spelling in Hausa. Does a more authoritative reference work exist that could replace this source?
- The embassy sources, on their own merits, seem perfectly true and proportional. Still, I'd prefer news articles or governmental sources. Source 49, The Guardian article, can at least replace the last two instances of source 8. I suggest replacing the third instance of source 5 with the government source quoted by The Punch, reverifying the paragraph, and finding a source for the 1960 adoption. Source 7 and the first two instances of source 5 could then be replaced by others in the article.
- Fold sources 18 and 21, the two from Google Arts & Culture, into source 3.
- Source 20 fails verification.
- The third instance of source 21 fails verification.
- Suggest replacing source 33 with this article from The Guardian and revising as necessary. Garko seems to have written for The Guardian, but Applied Worldwide isn't convincing me as much.
- Sorry to hassle you about this, but I suggest replacing sources 40 and 41 with an article or two, perhaps profiling the Naira, from a WP:NGRS newspaper. That way, they may be more straightforward and up-to-date.
- Suggest removing source 43 and moving source 42 a sentence forward to replace it. This government source seems a bit more apt.
- Perhaps all of my remaining suggestions are related to source formatting. Some authors are missing or generic, some titles are mismatched or contain extra metadata, some dates of publishing are missing or innacurate, websites or publishers are inconsistently linked or contain extra metadata or are missing, language parameters are missing, and some works could be placed in the "Bibliography" section; I think you get the gist. Of course, on their own, these are fairly simple fixes! Just be sure to carefully look over the citation parameters. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 05:49, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @Averageuntitleduser
- Can you tell me how the statement you just quoted is a problem... I mean, not just to the FL candidate but in a more general sense. I am reemphasising that I do not find a glaring issue with this source that will render it totally unusable. Again, it has a clear editorial standard and that is important thing a peer-reviewed journal should have.
- It is
a non-profit, educational organization formally associated with the United Nations Department of Global Communications
... according to their website. I find that to be sufficiently reliable. I also cannot find another suitable source, the only one I found got their information from Wikipedia. Should that be removed entirely then?
- Dialing back on this one. The source should be okay, and just based on ha:Najeriya, it seems the current spelling is common enough. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 18:05, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed.
- I removed this entirely
- The only way to verify this is https://www.nigerianembassy.co.il/the-national-flower-of-nigeria-costus-spectabilis/ which I have added back.
- I am okay with this. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 18:05, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Done.
- These clearly and correctly verifies what we want to be verified. I could not verify those with newspapers, hence, why I used those. If you find any that do, please I'd appreciate it.
- Silly for me to phrase it as if such sources exist, though I managed to find a replacement for the first and another for the second. I do think these are worthwhile improvements, though I apologize for being so pedantic. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 18:05, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I did not attend to this last one because it is already very confusing for me. I did extensive research here and do not find any problems here at all. In fact, sourcing for the Naira was seriously difficult for me, removing and replacing right now does not help me.
- Ah, no need to hunt down sources. What I mean is that the government source also verifies the content of the next sentence. I suggest moving it there and cutting the other source. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 18:05, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- For the general citation fixes, I had done that, but it all bugged up again since I started modifying the sources, nothing to worry about there, I will go through them again, most of them are currently okay. Mostly the newly added sources need these fixes. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 12:38, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Ah, I see the other source reviewer has the same problem with Martins 2019. @Vanderwaalforces, I'm not sure what you mean by "has a clear editorial standard". You mean that it has an editorial board? That hardly matters, if the editorial board doesn't have good standards. Not all editorial boards are created equal, and some are downright predatory. Again, there was an easily verifiable mistake in the very first sentence! I don't think this source could possibly survive review at WP:RSN. -- asilvering (talk) 19:50, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- I'm not sure it's a cfork, but List of members of the National Assembly of Zambia (2021–2026) already has the names of constituencies, along with the incumbents, so there's some duplication there. This should have enough info to justify a separate page and a gold star. Reywas92Talk 14:06, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Formation of constituencies: Added info to the lead.
- I've added a district column to the table.
- Sinjembela is a former constituency. Since it would pass NGEO, I didn't remove it from the template, but moved it to its own section.
- I have an explanation for the disparity in constituencies, but it would be WP:OR, so I'm not adding it to the article. I'll provide my explanation here for folks who might be interested: The rule is that a constituency cannot cover more than a district. This wouldn't be a problem if there were 4 or 5 times the number of constituencies as districts, but Zambia has 116 districts and 156 constituencies. The highly populated districts cannot be divided into a lot of constituencies because of this. This was interesting to find out, so thanks for asking the question. I tried to look for studies about the disparity in constituency size, but came up with nothing, unfortunately.
- If there is any other information that you or someone else can think of that is relevant to the list, I'm happy to do the research and add to the lead. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 14:09, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gonzo_fan2007 comments
- I know this is a pain, but the information in the "Name" column being centered while the "Province" and "District" columns are left-align isn't consistent. Choose one or the other.
- I feel like the image order is weird. I would recommend the Infobox and {{Politics of Zambia}} be place d consecutively in the lead, and then move the Location of Zambia and the Constituencies image to the "List" section
- On that topic, "List" seems like a weird section title. Why not just "Constituencies"?
The National Assembly of Zambia is the unicameral legislature of Zambia.
, the duplication of "Zambia" sounds bad. I think this is fine:The National Assembly is the unicameral legislature of Zambia.
- On that note, it would be nice to have some context for the country. Something like:
The National Assembly is the unicameral legislature of Zambia, a landlocked country at the crossroads of Central, Southern and East Africa.
(note, that text is from Zambia). Of them, 156 are elected
I thinkOf those

comma isn't needed.

Image review
Excellent work.
- Zambia National Assembly Building.jpg has an appropriate CC tag and review.
- Coat of arms of Zambia.svg has an appropriate PD tag.
- Location Zambia AU Africa.svg has an appropriate PD tag. Following the comments above from Gonzo_fan2007, would be it be possible to locate this near the mention of Zambia's location?
- Zambian National Assembly constituencies.svg has an appropriate PD tag. The image lacks any key to show which constituency is which. If that would be too complicated, would be separate maps for each province showing the locations of the constituencies be an alternative?
- All images have ALT text (as noted by Nitro Absynthe above).
- Are there appropriate thumbnail images that could be used in the table as it is quite stark? simongraham (talk) 11:52, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've moved the Zambia locator map to just below the Infobox. Also moved the "Politics of Zambia" sidebar template to a much lower section of the page.
The image lacks any key to show which constituency is which.
I'll see if there is enough information to correctly add numbering to the image. Might take a few days.Are there appropriate thumbnail images that could be used in the table as it is quite stark?
I did a cursory search for a few constituencies and there aren't images that would represent the constituency well. Assuming that the above numbering works out, I could use that to create a new image that would just show only the constituencies of a particular state and add that to the table. Doing the same thing for each state would reduce the starkness of the table. I'll ping you when these are done. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:35, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]- @Simongraham: I've added numbers to the constituency map and the table. This should work as a key.

- @MPGuy2824: That sounds reasonable to me. It would be interesting to see if this also resolves another issue. Currently, I feel that the map may be too small for many screens, so it may be helpful, given the constraints of MOS:IMGSIZE, to make it larger. simongraham (talk) 18:08, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- "The National Assembly is the unicameral legislature of Zambia, a landlocked country at the crossroads of Central, Southern and East Africa. The seat of the assembly is at the capital of the country, Lusaka, and it is presided over by a Speaker and two deputy Speakers. The term of the assembly is five years, unless it is dissolved earlier." - none of this is sourced
- First three columns of the table are unsourced i.e. what's the source that the 156 constituency names listed here are the 156 constituencies that exist and what's the source that each is in the province and district listed?
- Ordering the table by district seems a bit odd, would it not make more sense to order by constituency? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:27, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- First paragraph of lead was unsourced - I've added a ref and reused refs from elsewhere. I've also tweaked the prose a bit. Please point out any issues that you notice.

Additional background context for those unfamiliar with subject matter
| ||
---|---|---|
Imagine traveling back 200 years in time. If you had done so to tell a young northern German prince that he would become the father-in-law of Europe, he probably would have said you were being nonsensical. After all, this German prince, whose parents were only distantly related to European royalty, came from a simple background. However, life had its surprises for this German prince. An extremely polemic debate arose over who would eventually rule his homeland and nearby Denmark. This German prince happened to have a wife with close family connections to Danish royalty. Consequently, with the support of multiple European nations, this prince was chosen to be the next king of Denmark. And when the time came in 1863, he and his wife became King Christian IX and Queen Louise. Nevertheless, it was not enough for Christian and his eldest son to secure their place on the Danish throne (especially in the eyes of Louise). First, Christian’s eldest daughter married the most eligible bachelor in all of Britain. Second, Greece needed a new king because they had shown the door to their last one. As a result, the Greeks victoriously voted to install Christian’s second son on their throne. Third, Christian’s second daughter married the most eligible bachelor in all of Russia. Fourth, Christian’s youngest daughter married the throneless heir of the German Kingdom of Hanover. Their shared bond was that both of their families had lost territory at the hands of an even stronger German kingdom. And finally, Christian’s youngest son spent his life sailing the seas with a French princess by his side. More than a century after Christian’s death, the story continues. Like an exponential function in mathematics, his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and further progeny have increased the number of his descendants more quickly with each passing generation. These descendants have wed into royalty all around Europe. Because of this, six of the ten current heirs to European thrones can claim Christian IX as their ancestor! Can you guess which ones?
|
This list on Christian IX’s descendants helps to tell the story of a Danish king, his queen, his children, his grandchildren, and his great-grandchildren. I will note that this list was vetted both at Articles for creation and at Did you know.
This nomination is significant for various reasons. Personally, this is my first attempt to create a featured list on Wikipedia, and its success would demonstrate that I am capable of producing exemplary content. Second, I note that at the time of this nomination, only 10 royalty-related lists, and none on descendants of individuals, are of featured status. I hope that this article can serve as a model to all Wikipedia editors of what a great royal and genealogical list can look like. Finally, and above all, I hope to show a general audience that there is far more to (European) royalty than just the House of Windsor! Everyone is welcome to give feedback to make these goals a reality!

Comments by Borsoka
Reading through the list and its sources, I am not convinced that it is fully in line with Wikipedia:Notability, and I think its subject is not verified by a reliable source. Borsoka (talk) 03:09, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree, its DYK was held for a very long time, and I wasn't entirely sure it passed WP:NOTDATABASE and WP:NOTGENEALOGY. — 48JCL 12:04, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Very similar concerns were raised at the Did you know nomination. I responded to this inquiry by noting that Aronson 2000 and Lerche and Mandal 2003 established notability. The objector then conceded the point (in my eyes). Both of the aforementioned sources (albeit the 2020 version of Aronson's text) are also listed in the "Further reading" section of this article.
- That being said, I will not object if the consensus of this discussion is to merge or delete this stand-alone list. If so, I ask that the tables be merged into the "Issue" (or corresponding) sections of the articles on Christian IX and his children. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 16:51, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank your for the links. I am not sure that works written by Theo Aronson are reliable sources. Miranda Carter did not write of Christian's descendants, but of three cousins who ruled three great powers during WWI. Lerche and Mandal do not seem to be historians. Borsoka (talk) 02:14, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(unindenting to ensure collapse template works properly) So that my thought process in writing the article is clear both to you and to everyone else commenting, I will qualify the notability of the subject matter further:

- With these sources, surely these should replace the "Royal Family Tree" sources (which appear to be SPS) could be replaced, right? I am still not going to warrant an oppose, but I would suggest withdrawal, there is a lot of work that could be done. 48JCL public (talk) 19:13, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If I missed a source and/or I should still use the Further reading texts more exhaustively in the article, please let me know. Also, with respect to WP:NOTDATABASE, the only criterion I could realistically see being used against this nomination is #3, as creative works, song lyrics, and software updates are not listed in this article. To make all of the lifespan information encyclopedically relevant, I have written prose that accompanies each table elaborating on the family life of Christian/Louise and the families of their children.

- Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding
!scope=row
to each primary cell, e.g.|[[Name]]
becomes!scope=row |[[Name]]
. If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use!scope=rowgroup
instead. - Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions.

Support from Dylan620
Hi Andrew – I've just started working on a review that will focus primarily on prose and images, and should be done by the end of the day Monday at the latest. Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 23:38, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- A quick update: while I have been making quite a bit of progress with this review, I've unfortunately been slowed down by real-life stuff, so I'm running a bit behind schedule. I get out of work fairly early tomorrow, so knock on wood, I should be able to finish in the next 24 hours or so. I do have a few preliminary comments:
- File:Princess Dagmar of Denmark.jpg – the source URL provides a completely different image
- File:Louise Princess Royal.jpg – the source just circles back to the ENWP page for the upload
- File:Princess Princess Maria of Greece and Denmark with her parents and siblinsg.jpg – uploader partial-blocked from the article and draft namespaces for copyright violations
- File:GustavDenmark.jpg – uploader indefinitely site-blocked for copyright violations
- Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 23:42, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Welp, I thought I was nearly finished, and then I realized I would have to look through a 119-page PDF to verify sourcing for one of the images, which is missing its page number on the Commons upload page. I recall seeing at least a couple other similar cases elsewhere in the listicle. Unfortunately, that means this review is going to take quite a bit longer than I had anticipated. I'm going to try to complete it within the next five to seven days – please accept my apologies. Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 23:52, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for your work so far in reviewing the images, Dylan. Please let me know when you have completed your review. In the meantime, I have made the following changes:
- I have replaced the portrait of Dagmar with an image of the coat of arms of Denmark at the time she died (to be consistent with the entries on other royals with no available portrait).
- I have replaced the portrait of Louise with the one used in her article's lede infobox.
- I have removed the portrait of George I's family altogether. In any case, his youngest son, Christopher, was not yet born when the image was taken.
- I have likewise replaced the portrait of Gustav with an image of the coat of arms of Denmark at the time he died. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 03:03, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi again Andrew – I've finally finished the review, and I'm sorry it took so long. This was probably the most challenging image review I've done since I started tackling them earlier this year, since I'm not super familiar with European public domain laws and needed to give myself something of a crash course. The majority of images check out for licensing and sourcing. I took it upon myself to add missing US public domain tags on Commons in cases where I felt comfortable doing so (see my edits there). A few images are sourced to offline refs, which I'm choosing to accept in good faith. However, there are some issues:
- I am pleased that every image has alt text. However, in the slot where Gustav's portrait was replaced with the coat of arms of Denmark, the old alt text describing Gustav is still being used.
- On that note, is a "portrait of a coat of arms" really a portrait? This is super nitpicky, but the portrait article states that a portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face is always predominant. Every coat of arms usage here has alt text that describes the coat as a portrait.
- File:Christian IX of Denmark and family 1862.jpg – uploader partially blocked on ENWP from article and draft spaces. (Coincidentally, this is the same user who uploaded the now-removed photo of George I's family.) This image seems to be an alternate version of File:Christian IX Denmark and family 1862.jpg, which, per that file's description page, was apparently part of a legal dispute between the NPG and the WMF. Maybe I'm worrying too much, but I would be wary of including either image here.
- File:Family Photo.jpg – The source URL is dead. There is an archived link available, but it's not loading the images on my end.
- File:Alexander russia.jpg – The source URL is dead.
- File:Ernstaugusthannover.jpg – Uploader indefinitely site-blocked from ENWP for copyright violations. (This is the same user who uploaded the now-removed photo of Gustav.)
- File:Xenia, russian grand duchess.jpg – The source URL does not contain this image.
- I am pleased that every image has alt text. However, in the slot where Gustav's portrait was replaced with the coat of arms of Denmark, the old alt text describing Gustav is still being used.
- The prose is good overall, but I do have a few queries/suggested adjustments:
- Moreover, he nearly abdicated... – I don't think the "moreover" is needed here; indeed, this could probably be merged with the previous sentence by using a semicolon.
- Moreover, through her charity work... – I don't think the "moreover" is needed here.
- Is there anything about Valdemar that could be added to the second paragraph of §Children?
- They then married in October 1866 – "Then" feels extraneous here.
- Moreover, both Nicholas and Michael, along with Nicholas's five children, were killed during the Russian Revolution. – I think this would read more smoothly as "Nicholas, Michael, and the former's five children were killed during the Russian Revolution."
- Quite impressive work overall, Andrew. Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 03:14, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @Dylan620: Thank you very much for your extensive review. Here is how I have addressed your feedback. Please let me know if anything else should be done.
- For the images:
- I have changed the alt text for Gustav's image to better describe the coat of arms. Moreover, I have rewritten the alt text descriptors for all of the coat of arms images to avoid mention of portraits.
- I have removed the family portrait for Christian IX, given the concerns you have described.
- I have likewise removed the family portrait for Frederick VIII.
- I have replaced the image of Alexander with one of the pertinent Russian coat of arms, given the lack of other appropriate free-use images that I could locate.
- I have likewise replaced the image of Ernest Augustus with one of the pertinent Hanoverian coat of arms.
- I have likewise replaced the image of Xenia with one of the pertinent Russian coat of arms.
- For the prose:
- I have removed "Moreover" from that sentence on Christian IX's background.
- I have likewise removed "Moreover" from that sentence on Louise's background.
- I have added some information on Valdemar in the second paragraph of the Children section, namely on how family ties influenced him to reject the Bulgarian throne.
- I have removed "then" from that sentence on Dagmar and Alexander III's marriage.
- I have rewritten that sentence on the deaths of Nicholas II, his children, and Michael as you have suggested.

Placeholder
- I aim to do a full review, but looking at the lead initially, the sentence "The families of Christian and Louise, their children, and their grandchildren are described below." should be removed. The fact that the article is going to cover this is completely obvious from the title, so you don't need to state it in the prose. That will leave a lead of just three sentences, which is far too short for a FL. While the lead should provide a summary of the article, it should be more detailed than just three sentences -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:46, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for your initial comments, ChrisTheDude. I have removed the last sentence of the lede per your feedback. As for that section's length, I will be sure to rewrite the prose to provide a more comprehensive summary. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 16:58, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After taking a break to focus on other projects, I'm back with the sixth timeline nomination in an ongoing series. This particular timeline documents the 2014 Pacific hurricane season, one of the most active ever recorded in the basin. It included a Category 5 behemoth, the basin's strongest known May hurricane, a rare landfalling system on the Big Island of Hawaii, an infamous hurricane that devastated large swathes of the Baja California peninsula, and twelve other hurricanes for a total that tied an all-time record set over 20 years prior. Until this past week, portions of this listicle (especially from §September onward) were nearly a decade out of date, and a Scary Orange BoxTM was placed eight years ago alluding to this issue, which has now been resolved. I look forward to the community's feedback and will address any concerns as promptly as possible. (Nerdy mathematical aside... 2+0+1+4=7, and if this nomination passes, it will be my seventh featured list.) Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 21:48, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- "and an atypically strong upper-level divergence" - Is there a good wikilink for "divergence"?
- The distances for Genevieve seem very large. Wouldn't it be better to show distances from some point in Hawaii, instead of Baja California? -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:23, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you MPGuy2824 for your feedback. Replies below:
- Adding "an" in front of "upper-level divergence" wouldn't really work because "divergence" is an uncountable noun, at least in this context. Surprisingly, divergence (meteorology) is a redlink; the closest existing article I can think of would probably be convergence zone. Ultimately, I decided to condense the sentence in question to remove mention of divergence, as part of me worried that it was a little too in-depth for casual readers.
- Regarding Genevieve, I thought about how long some of those distances are. I had originally decided to stick with Baja California as a reference point because it is explicitly mentioned by the Tropical Cyclone Report for Genevieve. By contrast, no specific location in Hawaii is mentioned; it only refers to the Hawaiian Islands as a group. I've adjusted the location references beginning with Genevieve's second dissipation—where Hawaii is first mentioned in the TCR—with distances inferred from 21°30′N 158°00′W / 21.5°N 158.0°W / 21.5; -158.0, which is the location point in the upper-right corner of the Hawaii article itself.

We are trying to bring up the list of municipalities of Spanish provinces up to the standard seen in the other featured lists of municipalities. Alavense has made some excellent changes to this article and together we would like to create a template that can be used on the other Spanish provinces, eventually bringing them up to featured list status. This one may require some significant peer editing as it is the first one for Spain, but it will pay off as it can be replicated in the other Spanish provinces. Thanks for all your comments in advance! Mattximus (talk) 18:58, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- There seems to be a mish-mash of US and UK English used, given that I can see both "The organisation of the municipalities" and "Municipalities are categorized". As the subject matter relates to a non-English speaking country it probably doesn't matter which type of English is used, but whichever one it is should be consistent throughout.
- Found this one instance and fixed, but are there others? Should be consistent now.
- "A further concejal is added for every additional 100,000 inhabitants, although the figure can never be an odd one" - does this not contradict the previous sentence, which sets out the different levels of concejales based on population and every figure is an odd one?
- I assume it means you can never add an odd number as that would make the total even? I will try to reword.
- That was my fault. I meant actually the contrary, that the final figure can never be an even one because that would allow for draws when voting any matter. But I don't think it's correct now either. I'll try to explain. We have 25 at 100,000. At 200,000, we add one and we should have 26, but, given that it's an even number, we get an additional one (27) to solve the issue. When the population reaches 300,000, a further concejal is added, so we get 27 again. I think the current wording would mean that we get 27 at 200,000 and 29 at 300,000, which is not the case. Can we maybe twitch it, Mattximus? Alavense (talk) 16:36, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Image review by Staraction
- All images relevant to the article; consider replacing the gallery with images to the side of the table? If so, just adding the four most populous municipalities might be a little too bland. Maybe have images of other municipalities that are interesting in other ways featured as images. Although - this comment is mostly just from personal taste.
- I'm not sure about this one. I think being the most populated municipalities in the province also makes them the most relevant and the ones that should be highlighted with the images.
- Placing images on the side does cause some accessibility issues on small screens like phones I believe. Mattximus (talk) 15:18, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure about this one. I think being the most populated municipalities in the province also makes them the most relevant and the ones that should be highlighted with the images.
- Captions relevant to the images (maybe for the second, black-and-white map, "Map of municipalities in the province of Albacete"?
- Done.
- All images have alt text except for the second, black-and-white map, captioned "Municipalities in the province of Albacete"
- Done.
- All images under appropriate license. AGF on self-published works.

Comments by Dudley
- "Municipalities enjoy a large degree of autonomy in their local affairs." "in their local affairs" is to vague, Maybe "in local administration".
- Agreed, made change.
- "elected by universal suffrage on a list system". You need to give details of the list system used.
- I will let Alavense respond to this one, I'm only party sure it means the registration list alluded to early in the article where everyone registers to a municipality. Mattximus (talk) 18:05, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've expanded the information about that, Dudley Miles. I hope it's now easier to understand. Alavense (talk) 06:49, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- "junta de gobierno local". A translation would be helpful.
- did a translation but not sure if 100% correct, will defer to Alavense's Spanish.
- I'm happy with that - Alavense.
- It would make the article more attractive to have more photos.
- Added two more, any more required?
- I suggest putting a selection of images on the right of the table. It is a narrow table compared with many, so should cause less problems on phones provided a fixed width such as px is not used. Dudley Miles (talk) 18:28, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't really see how this can be an improvement, Dudley Miles. How many images should we add? Amongst the most recently promoted lists, I see some with fewer (or even no) images than this one. Anyway, we already had a map highlighting the province inside Spain, another map with every single municipality located and a selection of images for the most populous municipalities in a tidy row. Now, we have more images, but it's still an arbitrary selection. However, they are not in a tidy row anymore. Besides, I think it's less comfortable for those readers using the mobile app, because they have to scroll to find a table (which is, after all, the most important thing in the list) which has sunk further down. Alavense (talk) 06:35, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- All three items in 'Works cited' have error messages.
- I tried these and they all work for me, but maybe Alavense knows?
- The error messages go to Category:CS1 maint: date and year. There is a script which displays the errors, but I cannot remember which one. You should be able to get advice at User talk:Trappist the monk. Dudley Miles (talk) 21:08, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I won't be able to use a computer until at least tomorrow, but I tried to fix it. Is it okay now? - Alavense.
- OK. The error messages have gone now. Dudley Miles (talk) 07:30, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- "Four new disciplines in existing sports were introduced to the Winter Olympic Games program in Pyeongchang, including" - the use of "including" implies that the examples listed are going to be a subset of the total but in fact all four are listed, so I would replace "including" with a simple colon
- "Athletes from Germany and Norway tied [...] tying the record" - maybe change the second one to "equalling" to avoid repetition?
- Freestyle skiing guys image caption doesn't need a full stop
- Maybe a footnote to explain "Olympic Athletes from Russia"?
- "After the testing of the B sample that was also positive, the Court of Arbitration for Sport confirmed that they were instituting the formal proceedings" => "After testing of the B sample that was also positive, the Court of Arbitration for Sport confirmed that they were instituting formal proceedings"

- I assume that DSQ means disqualified. It might be worth creating a template for that, with a link to Ejection (sports). If not a template, then at least the link can be considered.
- Just chipping in to say that IMO I don't think that would be the best link to use in such a template. That article covers the concept of players (in various sports) being required to leave the match/event while it is going on because of an offence. What the "Changes in medal standings" table covers in this and similar articles is competitors who completed the event but then had their results revoked days, weeks, or even months after the event had finished. It's not really the same concept..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:55, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yup, it doesn't look like there is a good wikilink for that concept. Given that, Josh can use the {{Abbr}} template. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments and citation check from Arconning
- Caption in image: Marit Bjørgen (pictured) won five medals at the 2018 Winter Olympics.
- The caption in the image of the world map doesn't need a full stop.
- Ties are usually mentioned in the medal table section of the article, based on other FLs of medal tables (to retain consistency).
- Could mention the sport where Hungary won their first gold.
- Will get to the source review tomorrow, just claiming it in advance. Arconning (talk) 15:23, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey @Arconning. I've made the changes to the image captions. I also expanded the sentence to call out the event for Hungary. As for the ties, I actually believe the mention that countries are sorted alphabetically if they're tied to be redundant. I don't believe there's really any other method we'd use to sort them in a tie, is there? In regards to Hungary's competition, Hey man im josh (talk) 16:45, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @Hey man im josh If it's part of the criteria, mentions in sources citing the International Olympic Committee, Canadian Olympic Committee, and POCOG, should be non-italicized. Also refs 8, 18, 21, and 22 could use archive links. If not, then I think it's good for me. Arconning (talk) 07:22, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Ref 1 – Absolutely a mistake. I just tested it in my sandbox to see how I made this mistake and it turns out the autofill from RefToolbar filled in the date as August 10, 2011. I didn't expect there to be a date, so I didn't click the "Show/hide extra fields" button. I missed that and now been removed, good catch!
- Ref 17 – I did so to reinforce that the sorting method wasn't just a one time thing. In hindsight, this is definitely overkill and unnecessary. Ref 16 is literally perfect for verifying that. I've removed this ref.
- Archive links – All have been archived. I had to wait a little bit after triggering the archiving on them, but they're all there now.
- Italics – Why? My understanding is it doesn't particularly matter so long as it's consistent. As far as I'm aware, and I'd absolutely appreciate being corrected if I've misunderstood, it has nothing to do with the titles of the articles themselves, it's just the style of the type of citation.

Comments by Birdienest81
- As the editor who promoted the 2022 Winter Olympics medal table to featured list status, I think you should also add a table of official changes in medal standings by country similar to the ones in 1984 Summer, 2012, and 2020 ones.
- Since the parent article 2018 Winter Olympics uses a day-month-year format, all dates indicated in the list should use the DD-MM-YYYY format.
- --Birdienest81talk 19:38, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Steelkamp
Oppose. This list is heavily reliant on www.eurekapedia.org. That website is written by just two people, with no indication of fact checking or quality control by someone else like what would happen in a newspaper or a non self-published book. As a list relating to history, I would expect to see more scholarly sources. Steelkamp (talk) 11:43, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Using a user-submitted wiki as a source is a deal-breaker, yeah, and if there isn't some movement on this soon I'm going to close the nomination. @Robbiegibbons: do you intend on addressing this concern? --PresN 13:42, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi @PresN and @Steelkamp, I would like to disagree on this issue. Eurekapedia seems to be written by two domain experts, works by both of them have been cited in this article. Also, while looking through some of the pages there, they seem to be reliable and have proper citations. I'm a little busy at this time, so I can't check the h-indices or peer reviews of the two writers' works, but I think academia would also have found them reliable sources. Also, just because a site uses MediaWiki, that doesn't mean it is unreliable and user generated.

- You could convince me to rescind my oppose by showing that the authors of that source meet the requirements at WP:EXPERTSPS, i.e.: "Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications." Steelkamp (talk) 09:03, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, looking closer, it does appear to basically be a selfpub source by Clare Gervasoni & Dorothy Wickham, and not publicly editable, which clears that up, but a) the references should then have the author's name(s), and b) they need to be shown to meet EXPERTSPS, like Steelkamp said - right now the only used source that has them as authors is The Eureka Encyclopedia, which appears to also be a self-published work. It's possible they are, I'd just like to see some proof. --PresN 15:01, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi @PresN and @Steelkamp, Gervasoni & Wickham seem to run the Ballarat Heritage Service and its associated publishing arm, the latter is notable enough to have its own Wikipedia article. The authors seem to have okish h-indices for a subject this niche, I'll have to check academic reviews of their books or papers published in notable journals to further confirm this. What further proof would be required for establishing reliability? Matarisvan (talk) 14:18, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've been thinking about this. The Eurekapedia source has marginal reliability at best. It's still a self published source, even if written by experts. I would find that ok if it is used to source minor parts of the whole list, but it is being used to source large parts of this list. For that reason, my oppose still stands.

- Hi @PresN and @Steelkamp, I would like to disagree on this issue. Eurekapedia seems to be written by two domain experts, works by both of them have been cited in this article. Also, while looking through some of the pages there, they seem to be reliable and have proper citations. I'm a little busy at this time, so I can't check the h-indices or peer reviews of the two writers' works, but I think academia would also have found them reliable sources. Also, just because a site uses MediaWiki, that doesn't mean it is unreliable and user generated.

- Oppose as an unnecessary content fork of Battle of the Eureka Stockade. Only five of the entries in the list are notable enough for their own Wikipedia articles. This could easily be added to the Battle article, possibly with a summary table and some brief mentions of key aspects of the defenders. Doesn't appear notable or relevant enough for a standalone list. All of this also goes for List of detainees at the Eureka Stockade. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 20:57, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first featured list nomination and I am nominating this post improving the article. This is a list of the national symbols of India. Thanks! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 16:23, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Dajasj
Thanks for working on the list and nominating it! Some first thoughts:
- Have a look at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility/Data tables tutorial. Let me know if you have any questions!
- "Adopted" column is not really sortable (while other columns have the option to sort but are not really meant to be sorted)
- Random Capital letter in "The first two verses of the song were adopted as the National Song of India On 24 January 1950 by the Constituent Assembly of India."
- Try to minimise the text in the Notes column. Focus on what is relevant for it as national symbol. I think it is also good for accessibility if you don't change font size.
- I'm missing context for what is up with Hockey. Dajasj (talk) 16:58, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the review and comments. I have addressed the comments (MOS, sorting, caps and font size) except the notes part, which I will work on trimming it to keep it relevant.
- For the last point, Hockey is listed as a national game in government websites, text books etc. but as per an official note, there is no declared national game. Not sure whether to omit this altogether or keep it with mentioning the same in comments. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 18:51, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Kavyansh
I appreciate you nominating the list and I respect the efforts that must have been made to improve the list to this extent. That being said, I have a few fundamental issues with this nomination. The official Nation Portal of India lists only these 8 national symbols. Our list has 21 official symbols. Even if me make an exception for the "official name", the other alleged national symbols are being cited by an archived version of this site. It is a site hosted by "International Institute of Health and Hygiene,New Delhi" and sponsored by "Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change Govt of India". Does that make it an official site of the Government of India (as claimed in the citation)? For the other alleged national symbols, our article cites various news articles like TOI or HT. While these news articles do confirm the claim, wouldn't it be much better to cite an official source? For example, rather than this news article, why not directly cite this official declaration. But that leads me to the next question: if there are actual official symbols not specified in the Nation Portal of India website, what steps have we taken to ensure that the list is comprehensive? It is claimed by a HT article that Ganga is the national river of India. I am not able to find an official reliable source for it! The closest I can find is this audit report from the CAG, which again isn't an official declaration. So what criteria are we exactly using to determine which symbol gets to be in this list and which doesn't? How exactly are we justifying keeping Hockey as the National game? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 19:26, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Kavyansh.Singh Thanks for the comments. I understand that your question broadly focuses on the comprehensiveness of the symbols and the verifiability of the same.
- As there is no clear definition of what constitutes a official/national symbol (either officially or as an agreed consensus in WP), I am afraid that the list can neither be comprehensive nor be exhaustive. The article covers symbols that are generally regarded as official/national symbols as per various given sources. For the question of whether these 21 symbols are verifiable as official, let us classify into three categories for the discussion at hand.
- a. Fifteen symbols with official sources:
- Eleven symbols, which are quoted as such directly in the official source: Official name and the nine symbols (motto is part of the emblem, described in detail in the same site) listed here officially are clear. National days are mentioned in the same official site here. These are fairly straightforward.
- Four symbols, where official press releases available. These have official sources, so verifiability should not be a concern. (Aquatic Animal: Official source by the Ministry of Environment here, Heritage animal: Official press release by the Ministry of Environment here, River: Apart from news sources, official press release from PMO here and official website of NMCG, Ministry of Jal Shakti also states so here, Microbe: Official press release by the Ministry of Environment here)
- b. Four symbols, where Government affiliated sources and other citations are available. As there are multiple government affiliated sources and independent sources backing the same information, they are verifiable plus there are no sources stating anything to the contrary.
- Pledge: Apart from the general news sources, it is mentioned as such in Government sources (From Ministry of Education here, other here) and in a discussion in Parliament as a pledge (here).
- Tree and Fruit: These are quoted here in a site maintained by ENVIS, a government organization functioning under the Ministry of Environment. While not officially the Government website, it is affiliated to the Government. There are multiple other government affiliated sources/court mentions (For fruit: here, here, here and for tree: here, here, here, here) + independent news sources.
- Reptile: Apart from the general news sources, it is mentioned as such in Government exams(here), question papers (here), text books (here) and third party sources (here)
- c. Two symbols, with contradictory sources.
- Flower: ENVIS source here and other government affiliated source here + was part of the official symbols here. It was not mentioned as a national flower in an RTI query in 2017 and in Parliament in 2019 (here), but was part of the official website till 2021, referenced as such in official statements in 2019 (here) and by ministers in 2022 (here, here)
- Game: As I had mentioned in the previous revert, I am not sure whether to keep hockey or not. An RTI reply in 2012 said that officially there is no national game here and it was reiterated in 2020 here. While the ENVIS source still lists it here.
- For both the above cases, can remove/keep with a note based on consensus here.
- I have tried to address the points raised in your queries. Please do let me know if you have further comments/clarification on the same. Thanks again! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 10:44, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Apologies for the delayed response. I understand that it is wrong to hold our editors accountable for information that is simply not available or unclear, but I am still not entirely convinced. In the lead of the list (which I believe needs to be more elaborate), we claim, "The Government of India has designated official national symbols that represent the Republic of India." However, the instances here unfortunately show that there are symbols that are not officially designated. As things stand, if the list can neither be comprehensive nor exhaustive, then we need to set clear criteria for what is to be included and what is not. In my opinion, that criteria should be based on what reliable official sources say. Alternatively, given the lack of available information, we can set the criteria based on the opinions of the major contributors to this list or through a talk page discussion (RfC if required). I won't oppose the nomination merely for this reason, but in my opinion, government exam question papers, privately published grade 6 textbooks, and even sites affiliated with the government aren't entirely reliable for such extraordinary claims. As a side note, I have filled a RTI application regarding this awaiting response from the Ministry of Home Affairs. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:30, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Kavyansh.Singh I do agree with your point on the criteria and I am open to take it to a discussion as there seems to be no precedent or agreement on what is consisted as a national symbol (apart from these, there are symbols which are termed as national announced by private organizations as well!). If your RTI gets a revert, nothing like it as it will probably help clarify things from the official perspective. Then the question is whether we split into two sections or keep only the official symbols recognised. Thanks! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 13:29, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
- Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting
|+ caption_text
as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting|+ {{sronly|caption_text}}
instead. - Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions. This is not a full review, and does not result in a support vote. --PresN 13:37, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh
I'll do a larger review later on, but for now I want to point out some accessibility issues.
- You used
! rowspan="1"
when you should have used! scope="row"
. For instances where a row span would only be 1, do not use the rowspan parameter. For instances where you do need to specify a rowspan, you would do! scope="rowgroup" rowspan="2"
. - Add column scopes
- Tables needs a title

Commentd
- "which was to be launched a few years later" - a bit vague....?
- There's three consecutive sentences that basically all start "They unveiled...." - any chance you can vary this a bit?
- "produced several concept cars, such include" - wording's a bit mangled here, I think
- The headings that include "(cal. year)" look a little odd. Why not just "(year)"?
- Is "SIP" a standard/well-known abbreviation in the motor trade? If not, I would write it in full or even use a {{N/A}} template -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:55, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Steelkamp
- Should the last sentence of the lead have a reference?
- added
- Is it necessary to include "where various other electric cars—including the Opel Ampera-e and a redesigned Renault Zoe—debuted"? This article should really be focusing on Mercedes-EQ, and not feature unrelated cars prominently in the lead.
- removed
- Why does the concept vehicles table not have a body style row?
- I couldn't find any good references for some of the classes, so I just didn't add them
- Some websites in the citations aren't wikilinked. E.g. two instances of CNET and three instances of The Verge. There might be some others I haven't noticed.
- added
- Specifying a px size for images should generally not be done as per MOS:IMGSIZE. It's fine for the images in the table (which is given as an exception in MOS:IMGSIZE), but for the lead image, the fixed px size (
340px
) should be replaced withupright=1.5

...continuing
- "17 sports across 23 different disciplines" - For my own knowledge, what's an example of a sport that spans multiple disciplines?
- " 27 nations received at least one medal," - countries don't get the medal, their citizens do. See 1936 Summer Olympics medal table for how to rephrase this.
- Art competitions section: A bit weird to start a new section with "Additionally,". Try "The 1924 Olympics also included art competitions...".
- "Though medals in art competitions are no longer recognized by the IOC as part of the total medal count" - Don't start the sentence with "Though". Also, if you could give information on which other Games had these art competitions, it would be nice.
- "In architecture, no gold medal was awarded while the silver was awarded to pair Alfréd Hajós, who became one of only two Olympians ever to have won medals in both sport (swimming) and art Olympic competitions, and Dezső Lauber of Hungary." - This is quite a complex sentence. Maybe you can mover the additional clause about Hajos' two medals to a new sentence.
- "The medal count on the IOC website also includes medals from art competitions. The tables have been separated here."
- footnote b isn't a full sentence and doesn't need a full stop."
- footnote c: "This event is no longer recognized by the IOC as part of the total medal count."

Comments
- "Czechoslovakia won their nation's" - this doesn't really work grammatically, as it reads like Czechoslovakia owned itself. "The team from Czechoslovakia won their nation's" would work, though. Same for the following sentence.
- "Is there any need to show the key as "Host nation (France)", given that the only entry in the table with this colour/symbol is France? I would think just showing the key as "Host nation" would be fine (relates to both tables)
- Image caption: the word "pictured" in "Paavo Nurmi of Finland (pictured) won" is pretty redundant, as he's the only person in the photo so obviously he is the one pictured.
- "World map showing the medal achievements of each country during the 1924 Summer Olympics." - this doesn't need a full stop
- "Image caption: "Hajós at the 1896 Summer Olympics, where he" - show his full name
- "painting, and sculpturing" - "sculpturing" is a pretty obscure word (indeed I had to double check that it was definitely a real word). I think "sculpture" would be better (here and further on in the section)
- "architecture, literature, music, painting, and sculpturing [...] was a medal eligible event" - as the subject of the sentence is five distinct things, the verb should be plural. Also there should be a hyphen in "medal-eligible"
- "a medal eligible event to competitors " - the words "to competitors" are redundant as obviously only competitors were eligible for medals
- "was awarded to pair Alfréd Hajós and Dezső Lauber of Hungary" => "was awarded to the pair of Alfréd Hajós and Dezső Lauber of Hungary"

Source review: Passed
- Reliable enough for the information being cited
- Consistent date formatting
- Consistent and proper reference formatting
- Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
- Spot checks on 10 sources match what they are being cited for
Feedback:
- Ref 4 – Can we do better than olympicgameswinners.com?
- Ref 7 – Downcase to "Inside the Games"
- Ref 9 – Add Associated Press as the agency
- Ref 13 – When I visit the link it shows a publish date of February 26, 2024. Does it list the 27th for you, or was this a typo?
- Ref 27 – I was hesitant, but they seem reliable enough for the information being verified.
- Ref 26 – Well this confuses me. It looks like this has a date of 1896 to it, but that's clearly not correct given it speaks about 1924 in there.
- Ref 22 – Is that a date of 22 October 2021 there? It's hard to tell with the date stuff on the Olympics website.
- Ref 30 – There's a date of 26 July 1952, but I don't know if that's meant to be the publish date, but I feel like it's not. The date listed matches up with the final of Athletics at the 1952 Summer Olympics – Men's 1500 metres.
Great stuff. Please ping me when the issues above have been addressed. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:22, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Hey man im josh For ref 4, most of the sources list down art competitions as part of the medal count for France and Finland, so this was the best source I could find that's reliable enough, and for the medalists I've replaced the source. For ref 13, it shows as 27 for me, probably moves to the users timezone (let me know if I have to replace this). For ref 26, it probably shows when Hajos' swimming event was held. For ref 30, same with the last comment, when event was held. For the rest, I'm done! Hope this works. Arconning (talk) 17:06, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Arconning: I won't ask you to change the date if it adjusts based on timezone, I just wanted to verify that that was the case. What makes Olympic Games Winners a reliable source? It doesn't appear widely used a source. Perhaps you can cobble together a couple of different sources to replace the Olympic Games Winners source? If you can't you can't, but I think some would challenge the reliability of the site. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:18, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm extremely excited about this nomination, probably more so than any other nomination I've made, because this is the final part of a 4-part featured topic (my first!) that I've been working on based on the Detroit Lions draft history. If and when this list is promoted, I'll be receiving my first Triple Crown (provided they let me use a FT as my GT submission, someone pointed out I should probably follow up to see if this a thing) and making my first featured topic nomination!
This list is based on Green Bay Packers draft picks (1936–1969), which was promoted on June 3rd, and should meet all featured list criteria. As always, I will do my best to quickly respond to and address any and all concerns that are brought up. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:47, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- A handful of players have no college listed and Lou Creekmur has no team in the AAFC dispersal draft - is this intentional or an oversight? If intentional, maybe add footnotes explaining how they came to be drafted without a college/AAFC team......
- "Hall of Fame linebacker Joe Schmidt was selected in the seventh-round" => "Hall of Fame linebacker Joe Schmidt was selected in the seventh round" (you only need to hyphenate it when it's being used as an adjective)
- Similrly "Hall of Fame defensive tackle Alex Karras was selected by the Lions' in the first-round of the 1958 draft." => "Hall of Fame defensive tackle Alex Karras was selected by the Lions' in the first round of the 1958 draft."
- That's all I got. Great work as ever!-- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:04, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Creekmur was a very weird case... I added some notes, but, in short, he was drafted by an AAFC (and NFL) team but returned to school anyways. As a result, when the leagues merged, he was put into the player pool that was eligible for being drafted, despite never having played or signed for the LA Dons. I've added a note for clarity.
- Fixed the text for Schmidt and Karras
- As for the colleges, I'll work on figuring out why they aren't listed. Perhaps that was a little bit lazy of me, instead of just going with what was available. Newspapers.com here I come! Hey man im josh (talk) 18:00, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm following up my previous MLS featured lists (List of New England Revolution seasons, List of New England Revolution managers) with a list about the defunct club Chivas USA. This poorly-run team existed for ten unsuccessful seasons. I've created and improved this list, and believe it now meets the Featured List criteria. Brindille1 (talk) 03:56, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MrLinkinPark333
- Verification check (Table):
- As Chivas competed from 2005-2014, the page range for the conference & overall positions should be 41-50, not 32-59.
- For 2009, they were overall 5th not 6th. As they were tied with Chicago in points, they'd be ranked higher as they had more wins per MLS.
- Chivas's USOC appearances is on page 179, not 178.
- I see instances of both R3 (2006) and Round of 16 for the USOC. Only one of these should be used for consistency. MLS uses third round instead of Round of 16. Looking at links like 2006 U.S. Open Cup, third round is used. I think all of Ro16 should be switched to R3.
- 2005 USOC was R4.
- 2013 USOC was also R4.
- 2005 would need a source to show Chivas did not enter any Continental competitions, instead of not qualifying.
- The attendance is blank at FBRef. It used to be there per Google search. However, there is no archived copy of the Chivas Stats page at FBref. I also checked individual seasons at FBref and the attendance is blank, such as 2005.
- 2008 top goalscorer needs the 2008 FBRef source to show Razov was tied for first. The overall Chivas source at FBRef only shows Eskandarian and Kljestan due to lack of space.
- Needs a source for the nationalities of the top goalscorers. Otherwise, the flags can be removed.
- Verification check (Prose):
- "Chivas USA participated in the annual U.S. Open Cup tournament organized by the United States Soccer Federation" - ESPN doesn't specifically mention Chivas but verifies the rest of the sentence. MLS 2024 could be reused here to show Chivas's participation while keeping the ESPN source for the rest of the sentence.
- "MLS regular season typically runs from February to October" - MLS doesn't say the regular season doesn't alway ends in October. Don't think typically is needed here.
- " which was a postseason tournament that culminates in the MLS Cup" - is a postseason tournament (as it's still being held per the 2023 MLS + Washington Post sources)
- "annual international competition between league and cup champions in North America, Central America, and the Caribbean." - not seeing the bolded part in Los Angeles Daily News for Champions League. Maybe rephrase to between teams.
- "a new expansion team in Los Angeles was announced, which eventually became Los Angeles FC." - needs a bit of trimming to avoid copying/close paraphrasing as the sentence looks similar to The Athletic.
- Citations comments:
- The Athletic needs an access-date.
- Typos in publication names: The New York Time, Los Angelas Daily News. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:43, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333 Thank you for the very thorough review. I've updated the article to fix the issues you've raised, with a couple notes:
- - "For 2009, they were overall 5th not 6th". The tie-breakers were different in 09, I've added a better citation for overall standings which should clarify any ambiguities
- - For R3 vs R16, I refer to these rounds the way they're referred to in the source. Renaming R16 to R3 would be incorrect, as the R16 isn't always the third round (see 2013 where the fourth round is the round of 16).
- - For the 2005 continental competition, I switched this to a "DNQ". I've not found a source indicating that the team could've entered the tournament but chose not to. Brindille1 (talk) 04:03, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- The above points have been resolved apart from the following:
- In regards to Round 3, MLS page 179 only uses Round 3. Therefore, any usages of Round of 16 for the USOC need extra sources.
- 2012 attendance is linking to the wrong source. Should be this one.
- I just noticed that Soccerway doesn't verify that Ante Razov was the top overall goalscorer across all seasons with 31 goals. The link only provides details for the individual season.
- "announced a new expansion team that would play in Los Angeles, which would eventually become Los Angeles FC" - still needs reworking to pass WP:LIMITED.
- MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 18:41, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MrLinkinPark333 I've addressed these issues. For the Soccerway source, it contains a list of all league goals by player for each Chivas season- concluding the total number of goals falls under WP:CALC. Brindille1 (talk) 14:22, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- "which was a postseason tournament that culminates in the MLS Cup" => "a postseason tournament that culminates in the MLS Cup"
- "which is an annual international competition between league and cup champions in North America" => "an annual international competition between league and cup champions in North America"
- "The club's 2014 season set a record-low attendance for the league" => "The club's 2014 season set a record-low attendance level for the league"
- "It was named the Champions' Cup until 2008" - this needs a full stop.

- USOC should use {{abbrlink}}.
- I have some concerns about the key:
- First off, "MLS", "CCL" and "SL" don't appear in the table at all. They should be removed from the key, as not relevant (specifically, instead of using the acronyms you spelt them out in the table).
- Consider using the horizontal key found in NFL seasons lists for position placing (e.g. List of Green Bay Packers seasons)
- In the key to cup record, most of those aren't found in the table (I know they could possibly be in the future), but why not just use {{abbr}} and {{abbrlink}} for all these? You already use these templates in the table for some abbreviations, why not these?
- All of these accomplish something super beneficial to the reader: they get rid of a bunch superfluous info that is (on my screen) almost the same length as the table (the key info the reader wants).
- You use {{sfnp}} but then have these citations grouped in the same section as other direct citations. Recommend splitting "References" into sub-sections. An example of this can be found at List of Green Bay Packers team records.

- See also section has an indented bullet - is this intentional?
- I might be mistaken but I believe source [1] (the Xinhua article) does not verify the claim in the article that "Nkurunziza was elected for a third term, as the Constitutional Court considered that first, indirectly elected term, did not count towards the limit". This Al-Jazeera article for the footnote might be a better source, while the Xinhua article can still be used for the infobox. (Personally I wouldn't use Xinhua but I suppose it isn't deprecated)

- Powers granted by the 1974 constitution: I was sadly unable to find anything specific about what new powers he got, but this was 8 years after his coup, and it would be reasonable to assume that the constitution (officially) granted him the powers that he was already using until then.
- "Currently" is frowned upon by the MOS. I've added an "As of 2024" at the beginning, and an {{update after}} template at the end of that sentence.

Source review by Fritzmann
Hello, this is my first foray into FLC; I usually hang around GAN. I will be doing the source review, and because it is my first one I will probably be more thorough than strictly required. Other reviewers and nominator, please feel free to correct any errors I may unknowingly stumble into.
- Xinhua is the state news source of China, but is considered reliable for non-China topics. However, I don't think this is the best source because it states that the draft constitution will allow for 7 years and up to 2 terms. Is there a more recent source that is based on the finalized constitution?
- NYT is considered a reliable source. It verifies the date of the establishment of the republic, but from what I can see only infers that Micombrero was President, not that he established the presidency. I don't think it's much of a stretch, but just wanted to point this out.
- Reference 3 (the 2005 constitution), needs page numbers. I believe the first instance is page 1, and the second is page 5. Further, this source does not support the claim "as of 2024" since it was published in 2005. It could support "as of 2005", but a more recent source would be needed to support "as of 2024".
- Cambridge University Press is considered reliable. From what I can tell, it adequately supports the article's claim without issues.

- I do not have access to ref 9 and will assume good faith.
- Does not support election year of 1984, took office date of 1 November, and does not mention UPRONA or Nzambimana.
- Common ref added.

Citations for the last paragraph of the lead are likely warranted, despite the straightforwardness of the claims. Please respond above to concerns on sources, thanks in advance for your patience with me! Fritzmann (message me) 14:56, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @Fritzmann2002: It took me some time to find a ref with covered the entire timeline of independent Burundi. It is now linked to in the table caption. A few straggling pieces of information still don't have sources, but the only solution for that is to remove whole columns, and I'm sure to get pushback from list watchers about that. There are now references for a couple of the statements in the last paragraph of the lead. I don't think the remaining statements are as contestable as those two. Please have a look at the list when you can. There is no particular rush. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:54, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh
To add to the source review above, which MPGuy looks to have largely implemented, I also have some feedback:
- Ref 1 – This New York Times source requires a subscription, please specify that
- Ref 2 – Could use a publisher
- Ref 3 – Add
[[United Press International|UPI]]
as the agency - Ref 3 – Use
|at=Section B., p. 5
to call out the section and page - Ref 4 – Perhaps it would make sense to add University of Ottawa
- Ref 8 and 9 – These Washington Post sources requires a subscription, please specify that
Other than that, I'm happy. Good stuff MPGuy!! Please ping me when you reply. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:08, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Josh, thanks for the review. I've made all the changes that you've suggested. Implementing some of Fritzmann's suggestions will probably involve replacing some of the refs, so I'd prefer if you indicate your Support/Oppose after those changes are in. I'll ping you here when that is done. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:00, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nom's comment: This now has 2 source reviews and a few good faith edits which unfortunately removed some table accessibility features. I'm in discussion with the editor, and will note (for my own reference) that Fritzmann's review was for revision 1234253945 and Josh's review was for revision 1234660604. I will ping both of you once the list meets the FL criteria again and your particular feedback is incorporated or commented on. Thanks. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list, now that I've secured three Supports for my FLC of the Linda Lindas discography. Feel free to leave any comments if you don't think this is ready, but I believe it is. – The Sharpest Lives (💬•✏️•ℹ️) (ping me!) 17:34, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
NØ
- "The Linda Lindas have recorded 17 songs for album or EP releases, 7 songs as singles, and 5 songs outside albums, totaling 29 songs. Among the 29 songs, 7 of them are covers, and most were produced by Carlos de la Garza, the father of band members Lucia and Mila." - Exact counts like this require a secondary source; we're not allowed to just add a count from our in-wiki table since it could be incomplete. Either way, these numbers will keep on changing and would be a pain to maintain, so I suggest removing them.
- "The band started out as a cover band, playing music from multiple bands such as Le Tigre and the Go-Go's, whose "Tonite" they later covered." - I am a bit confused by the structure of the lead currently. The first paragraph seems to go into a summary of their overall career, and in the second paragraph it is back to describing how they started out?
- You should add some information about the musical genres and lyrical themes explored on the first album. Overall, the lead could deal with some restructuring.--NØ 12:04, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MaranoFan: what do you think now? I've restructured the lead and included info on genres and themes. – The Sharpest Lives (💬•✏️•ℹ️) (ping me!) 00:50, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- Lead image could be made larger
- "started out as a cover band, playing music from multiple bands such as Le Tigre and the Go-Go's, whose "Tonite" they later covered" - this reads a bit weirdly - they started out as a band covering the likes of the Go-Gos, whom they covered later? Might be worth adding a little more context to their covering the Go-Gos "later"
- Also, the word "multiple" isn't needed
- "the Linda Lindas' namesake" - I would change this to something like "for which the band was named"
- "The album genre has been classified" => "The album's genre has been classified"
- ""Racist, Sexist Boy" has commonly been compared to riot grrrl sound" => ""Racist, Sexist Boy" has often been compared to the riot grrrl sound"
- "Their second album, No Obligation, is set to release in 2024" => "Their second album, No Obligation, is set to be released in 2024"
- Songwriter(s) column sorts on forename. It should sort on surname
- Song and album titles starting with "The" should sort based on the next word
- Some of the image captions need sources that the song in question is a cover of the band named
- "The Linda Lindas remixed "The News" by Paramore for a remix album entitled Re: This Is Why." - if they simply remixed the original song, this doesn't come under the usual definition of a song they "recorded" so I don't believe it belongs on this list -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:21, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@The Sharpest Lives: comments below. Feel free to challenge. I reserve the right to spot something later! Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 22:04, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Source review
- Notes b and c should have citations.
- They seem to have some currently.--NØ
- The band's own Bandcamp site is cited few times, but only for straightforward facts, so that seems fine.
- I don't think that Film Music Reporter is suitable as a source - see Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_387#Film_Music_Reporter_-_Reliability
- For consistency, Dork should be wikilinked to Dork (magazine)
- For consistency, Bigmouth should be wikilinked (redlink)
- For consistency, either remove the two ISSN's, or add ISSNs to other sources that have them.
- I think "Gabba Gabba!, Yo" and "Linda Lindas, The" should be re-ordered to their "natural" form, e.g. using the author rather than first/last parameters.
- Some of the sources, e.g. YouTube, Apple Music, aren't ideal, but they are OK for the info being supported here.
- Spot check on "most were produced by Carlos de la Garza, the father of band members Lucia and Mila." - no issues.
- Spot check on "In 2021, the band went viral with a performance of "Racist, Sexist Boy" and subsequently signed with the Los Angeles-based label Epitaph Records" - no issues
- Spot checks on "Growing Up is centered on themes of growing up, discovering oneself,[16] and anxieties that arise in adolescence" - no issues
- Spot check on "Their second album, No Obligation, is set to be released in 2024" - no issues
General comments
- Is there any info available about unreleased recordings? (Out-takes, etc.)
- I assume that information on unreleased recordings would not be available for artists this new, but these are generally not present on lists when they pass FLCs anyways and are usually put there by fans later.--NØ
- " the Linda Lindas have appeared on cover, remix, and tribute albums, as well as soundtracks." - phrasing suggests to me there are multiple appearances on each type, which doesn't seem to be the case. (e.g. only one tribute album and one soundtrack)
- Rephrased. I am counting three soundtracks between Harriet the Spy, Yo Gabba Gabbaland!, and Totally Killer, though.--NØ
- "Their second album, No Obligation, is set to be released in 2024. It spawned three singles:" doesn't quite seem right to me, given that the album is not scheduled ti be released until October. Maybe soemthing like "Three tracks that will be on the album have been released as singles" (but more smoothly written)?
- Feels like the heading for the main table should be something like "Songs released by the Linda Lindas" rather than "Name of song, songwriter(s), original release and year of release", but I might be wrong.
- Current heading seems to be consistent with other lists.--NØ
- Overall, great work!

- Based on the link that you point to @BennyOnTheLoose, you are correct. @PresN would know better about how serious we are about its usage, but it does seem like this is something we'd want to remove. I don't see any benefit to using line breaks to make the references appear under one another instead of beside each other.

- It's fine to use <br> tags like that, DTAB means don't use it in two cells next to each other to make a fake second row across the cells. In this case, you're just forcing a cell to stay narrow, it still reads correctly. --PresN 14:03, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Shouldn't rock en español be italicized?
- Their second album, No Obligation, is set to be released in 2024. It spawned three singles That reads a bit weirdly, doesn't it?

- There's a citation needed tag in the table.

After some hard work on this list, I now believe it meets the criteria.

- In the 1979 row, the managers should each have their own row so they can be properly sorted when using the table sort function.
- I removed the second manager as it seems he was the assistant to the other one, not co-manager. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- In the managers with multiple titles table, recommend adding an emdash to the blank cells.
- Done NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- On the last two tables, I don't think you need to duplicate the section title and table title. You can use {{sronly}} to keep the descriptive titles for accessibility without showing them visually.
- I did this and then realised that it leaves the refs hanging above the table, so I've left it for now. NapHit (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- The competition was discontinued in 2004 with the introduction of the FIFA Club World Cup - The FIFA Club World Cup was introduced in 2000, though.

- In the caption, it would be worth stating that the picture dates from the 1970s, if that's the case.
- Is it from 1970, though? According to the description, I guess c. 1970 or something like that would be better. Alavense (talk) 05:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- A comma is missing before respectively.
- There's a problem with the caption of the grouped images. In mobile view, the order is slightly different, with Sacchi in the middle, so it makes it confusing. Would there be any way of fixing this?
- I think I've resolved this now. Think the issue was that image 1 was last in order. Switched it around and that seems to have resolved it for me when I opened the app. NapHit (talk) 19:55, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- If "Country" refers to the club, wouldn't the column have to be after that for "Club"?
- I get what you're saying here. This is the common way of referring to the nationality of the club on WP:FOOTY articles, especially as we can't just use the flag per MOS:FLAG. I'm not sure it would be better if the nationality of the club was after the club itself, but that could be just because I'm used to it being this way.

- I don't know, it's kind of how it's always been done for these WP:FOOTY lists, of which there are multiple ones with the same format that are featured. Of course, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS doesn't mean I'm right so I'm open to a second opinion on this from the FL directors, @ChrisTheDude: if you have any thoughts on this given your experience with football-related lists, or any other interested editors.

- I get what you're saying here. This is the common way of referring to the nationality of the club on WP:FOOTY articles, especially as we can't just use the flag per MOS:FLAG. I'm not sure it would be better if the nationality of the club was after the club itself, but that could be just because I'm used to it being this way.

- Bit weird to have both "Wadi Hower National Park - Gala Abou Ahmed (mixed natural and cultural site)" and "Wadi Hower National Park". Would need an explanation. Also, the my second point applies here too since the text is quite similar. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:59, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Nile Map Sudan.png is possible but I am trying to avoid maps. As for the second one, the other relevant image is File:الدندر.jpg, which is equally non-ideal.

- "Sudan accepted the convention" I'd use "ratified" instead.
- "Jebel Barkal and the associated sites" to "Jebel Barkal and its associated sites"?
- "The sites of...in 2016." should be either "The sites of Meroë and Sanganeb Marine National Park and Dungonab Bay – Mukkawar Island Marine National Park were listed in 2011 and 2016, respectively." or "The site of Meroë was listed in 2011 and Sanganeb Marine National Park and Dungonab Bay – Mukkawar Island Marine National Park in 2016."
- "The latter is a natural site" isn't "latter" just for lists of two objects?
- "The archaeological area in" to "This archaeological area in"?
- "Jebel Barkal...sacred mountain" to "Jebel Barkal, which has the Temple of Amun at its foot, was considered a sacred mountain."
- "Monuments include temples" to "Monuments in the area include temples"?
- "Some aspects of burial practices" You don't mention any funerary practices earlier, so this doesn't really fit well. I'd go with something like "The pyramids and burial chambers of the site are an 'outstanding example of funerary architecture'. Some aspects of this funerary tradition remained in use until the 6th century".
- "ruled Egypt Egypt" typo.
- "The park has...2004." to "The park was previously listed on the tentative list in 2004."? Also, if it was already on the tenative list, why did they have to relist it?
- That's all I have. AryKun (talk) 11:55, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks! I fixed the ones that I think fit, some of them I think are fine as they are. Funerary practices refer to tombs that are mentioned in the previous sentence. The two natural reserves are a single WH site, with two components, thus singular. The 2004 thing just means that they didn't do the cleanup of the list, but we cannot do much here, both are still on the list :) Tone 09:38, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- "Since Idaho became a U.S. state in 1890, it has sent congressional delegations to the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives, beginning with the 51st United States Congress in 1889" - 1889 is not since 1890
- The sentence starting "The longest-serving senator from Idaho" is quite long, maybe split it into two?
- "He was instrumental in the passage of the Sixteenth and the Seventeenth Amendments, but opposed the Nineteenth Amendment." - maybe add a few words on which each of these covered, as I doubt many people would know without looking them up......?
- "Frank Church, who similarly served for 24 years on the Foreign Relations Committee" - similar to what? Nobody previously has been mentioned as serving on this committee
- "such that each election, around one-third" => "such that at each election, around one-third" would be better I think
- "who also had served as Idaho's first territorial governor" => "who had also served as Idaho's first territorial governor"

Support from Gonzo_fan2007
- Section 2 of the US Constitution sets the bar that every state must have at least one rep in the House, regardless of population. This should be added to the lead where it references apportionment based on population (and should be added to all similar lists).
Currently, the dean, or longest-serving member of Congress from Idaho, is Mike Crapo, who was elected to the House of Representatives in 1992 and has served in Congress ever since, serving in the Senate since his election in 1998.
this sentence is set-up weird by leading with "dean". I would recommend reordering to something likeMike Crapo has served in the Senate since 1998. As the longest tenured Senator, he holds the honorary title of Dean of the United States Senate. Prior to his tenure in the Senate, he served three terms in the House of Representatives.
- I'll note too that the sentence I quoted above is word-for-word the same sentence under the "Current delegation" section. Whatever you do, there shouldn't be word-for-word regurgitation between the lead and body of the article.
to serve Idaho in the Senate
"serve" sounds a little strong here. "represent" is more appropriate.which prohibited restricting the right to vote on account of sex
appears to be grammatically correct but reads as double negative to me. Could we be in the affirmative here and sayrecognized the right of women to vote
?including two years as chairman, in addition to serving as chairman of the Church Committee
this is a run-on sentence. Recommend adding a full stop after the first instance of "Chairman"- You have a "current delegation" section yet under the Senate and House sections, you still mention the current delegation. Seems repetitive and not needed. This would also make updating the article easier, not having to update multiple instances after elections.
Nice work. Please ping me when you have responded. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:58, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you so much for your comments @Gonzo fan2007 and apologies it took so long to respond! I've fixed every issue except for a couple, noted below:
- The concept of the dean of a specific congressional delegation is a little murky. There does not exist a Wikipedia page for the dean of a particular delegation but as far as I can tell it does not relate directly to either Dean of the United States Senate or Dean of the United States House of Representatives. Instead, the congressional delegation of each state has its own dean, which is defined as the longest-serving member of Congress from that state. It appears to be an honorary title and is referenced in many news articles, so it's relevant. I've made some changes to not lead with the word "dean" but what do you suggest as a more permanent solution to this issue?
- Gotcha, sorry I misunderstood what you were referencing. It's fine how it is. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:28, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've changed "prohibited restricting the right to vote on account of sex" to "prohibited disenfranchisement on account of sex". Technically speaking the text of the amendment did not "[recognize] the right of women to vote"?
- That works. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:28, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've removed the reference to Idaho's "current senators" in the body of the article; I'm unable to find the one referencing the House. If it's still there, please let me know!

- " "Cold" was the final number one of the year and would prove to be Gary's only Easy Listening chart-topper and his final entry on either that listing or the Hot 100" - A few sentences before this it is mentioned that Cold didn't reach the Hot100 at all.
- @MPGuy2824: Correct, but he had other songs which did. My point is that it was his last song to appear on either chart i.e. he never charted again on either chart. If the wording could be made clearer, let me know -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:52, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Would "last entry on any Billboard chart" do? Assuming that is accurate, of course. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:57, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Trouble is then I would technically have to source that he didn't chart on any of the dozens of other charts Billboard publishes (I am reasonably certain he didn't, but technically I would need to prove his absence from every single one of them since 1968). How about something like "After Cold, he would not have another easy listening or pop chart entry".....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:32, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yup, its a problem to prove a negative. Reading only your suggested sentence, it still sounds like the song was in the pop chart too. Since this piece of info (regarding him never being on the pop charts after 1967) isn't related to this list anyway, maybe you could leave it out OR wait for another reviewer to give a better suggestion. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 12:25, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- "In contrast to the song by the Sinatras which was both an easy listening and pop number one, two singles in 1967 reached number one on the Easy Listening chart but failed to enter the Hot 100 at all. Both "It's Such a Pretty World Today" by Andy Russell and "Cold" by John Gary were Easy Listening chart-toppers but did not achieve sufficient crossover success to even reach number 100 on the Hot 100." - A lot of overlap in these two sentences. Maybe consider a merge.

- I changed the contentious sentence to "after it exited the Easy Listening chart he never achieved another entry on either that listing or the Hot 100". I genuinely don't believe this reads as saying that "Cold" was also a pop hit -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:23, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- In 1967, Billboard magazine published a chart ... The chart, which in 1967 was entitled ... In 1967, 18 songs topped the chart based -- I think the 2nd and third instances of mentioning the year 1967 could be tweaked, or perhaps just the third instance only, since it is assumed that 18 songs topped the chart that year.

Alright y'all, mammal list #41 and the 6th and final list of Eulipotyphlans: our capstone list for the order! The species lists covered the hedgehogs, moles, shrews, shrews, and more shrews of Eulipotyphla, the 4th-biggest order of Mammalia (behind rats, bats, and monkeys), and this list, like the previous capstone lists, jumps up a level to list out all the genera of the order (and adds the two solenodon species, which are too small to get their own list). This follows on from the formatting of those previous lists, like List of primates, and also like those lists needed some careful structuring of the references to keep the page from getting too long to render. It's all in there though, and ready to review!
With this list, after 5 years we've gotten 15 of the 17 big-enough orders done (10 more have <10 species each), and just have the last two orders to go: Chiroptera (bats) and Rodentia (rodents). Unfortunately, those two have... more than half of all mammal species. Not quite sure how I'm going to tackle those yet! In any case, thanks to all the reviewers who've checked these lists out over the years. --PresN 22:06, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- My only query is that "Members of the Soricidae family are soricids, and include shrews." sounds like there's something along the lines of "and [something else]" missing at the end (i.e. the use of "include" implies that it covers multiple different types of thing, not just one). If all the soricids are shrews then this could be simplified to "Members of the Soricidae family are soricids, or shrews."

- Image caption isn't a complete sentence so should not have a full stop
- There's no need for a "certifications" column in the album table if they haven't received any

- @ChrisTheDude:Done – added "was" and "the", removed period, certifications column, and "Growing Up" from other appearances.

Comments by RunningTiger123
- The EPs and singles are mostly unsourced. If something doesn't chart, it will need some other source to prove it was released. (SZA discography is a recent FL that does this well.)
- If the MusicBrainz general reference is meant to cover these, note that the site is user-generated and not reliable (see commentary at this RfC and this RSN discussion, among other places).
- "Totally Killer" should probably be in italics, not quotes

Comments by NØ
I have been enjoying your work on the Linda Lindas articles so I hope you don't mind that I have reviewed this!
- I don't think the hatnote is needed since none of the topics at the disambiguation page would be sought out with an exclamation mark. In fact, just Vote! could also be safely redirected here.
- "The Linda Lindas released their debut album entitled Growing Up in 2022." - Suggest commas before and after "entitled Growing Up"
- The album not charting on the Billboard 200 appears to be unsourced, and I am not sure mentioning that is necessary even if a source were to be found.
- It is not immediately obvious what "(87875)" denotes, and it does not seem to be common practice on discography articles to include these.
- In ref 34, the parenthesis "Spin (magazine)" should not appear to readers and should instead just spell out "Spin"
- That is all. This list is solid and, other than these comments, is ready for promotion in my opinion.--NØ 11:39, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MaranoFan: done. Removed hatnote, created redirect, added commas, removed Billboard 200 claim, removed (87875) [which was the "ID" of the album on the label], and piped Spin. – The Sharpest Lives (💬•✏️•ℹ️) (ping me!) 12:40, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I recently created this list, with the aim to fulfill the featured list criteria from the start. I believe it does meet all of them, hence my nomination. Switzerland has been closely linked to the Nobel prize since the start, and a large number of laureates were Swiss. Broc (talk) 08:19, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment from nominator
I did significantly expand the last lead paragraph, which at the time of nomination only included Switzerland is among the countries with the highest number of Nobel laureates, both in total and per capita
. I wanted to add some context with explanations that have been published in Swiss media, as well as a remark on the general Nobel controversies (Western bias is a pretty obvious one). This should provide better context and more WP:NPOV, avoiding the mildly celebratory tone that country-based lists end up having. Broc (talk) 12:58, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
- Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting
|+ caption_text
as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting|+ {{sronly|caption_text}}
instead. - Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding
!scope=col
to each header cell, e.g.! Year
becomes!scope=col | Year
. - Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row. In the case of this table, I think the primary column is the "Laureate" column which contains their name.
- Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- List of Indian Nobel laureates seems to be only other nation-based nobel laureates list. It has a section of nominees who didn't win the award. You could consider adding them here too.
- The last paragraph of the lead section is just a single sentence. See if you can merge it with one of the paragraphs above it.
- Run IABot on the list.
- The Telegraph reference is generating a CS1 error. Please fix.
- That's all that I got. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:09, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 I adapted the lead section as suggested, ran IABot, and fixed the CS1 error.
- Regarding the list of nominees, I have a few concerns:
- A list of Swiss Nobel laureates certainly fulfills WP:NLIST, given the amount of sources publishing on the topic ([26][27][28][29] just to link a few). However, I could not find a published list of Swiss Nobel nominees.
- List of Indian Nobel laureates nicely distinguishes between Indian nationals at birth, individuals of Indian origin, people with acquired citizenship, but does so only for the list of laureates and not for the nominees. I am then left to wonder what the selection criterion for the nominees section was.
- The lack of a published list of Swiss Nobel nominees, combined with the relatively arbitrary definition of what "Swiss" means (in the case of laureates, "held Swiss citizenship at the time of the award" seems a commonly accepted criterion, but I do not know what would be a viable one for nominees), would make the creation of a list of nominees rather close to WP:OR, in my opinion.

- For Jack Steinberger, it is mentioned that he acquired honorary Swiss citizenship in 2006. However, the source states that he acquired honorary citizenship of a German town in 2006. Could you please clarify this?
- My mistake, he acquired honorary citizenship in 2000 from Geneva, per source. Broc (talk) 20:18, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- This is also a very valid question. The Swiss citizenship is given first by the city, then by the canton, and finally by the confederation. Per the Federal Act on Swiss Citizenship , "The granting of honorary citizenship to a foreign national by a canton or municipality without a federal naturalization permit does not have the same effect as naturalization."

- @Broc, I feel like splitting would be better to avoid confusion. Also, there might be some discrepancy regarding Theiler's citizenship. According to this report by SERI (p. 16), Max Theiler is listed as a Swiss citizen. Maybe he could be placed in the naturalized citizen section with Pauli and Steinberger. Nitro Absynthe (talk) 09:29, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Nitro Absynthe uhm that's a tricky one. The Historical Dictionary of Switzerland mentions that Theiler was Swiss citizen by birth (place of origin: Hasle), which makes sense as his parents were Swiss. On the other hand, he certainly received a honorary citizenship, again from Hasle, in 1952, which would not make sense if he already was a citizen. However, according to the list you shared, he was Swiss when he received the prize. I think it might be best to add him in the main list with a footnote. Broc (talk) 12:10, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Source review
I see this as still awaiting a source review in the list, so will give it a shot.
- List entries: Main
Verifying these match Das sind alle Schweizer Nobelpreisträger with the exceptions of Pauli (exclusion explained in lede) and Hermann Staudinger (explained in footnote).
- Table row entries: References
I spot-checked a few and they all appear to be to the Nobel website, verifying the row data. Did not check every single one but I imagine this is the least controversial part of the article.
- List entries: Later citizenship
Pauli is fine per above. Steinberger, though... the source just says "ab 2000 von Genf" and his Wikipedia article doesn't say anything about him acquiring Swiss citizenship late in life. The NZZ.ch "Das sind alle Schweizer Nobelpreisträger" list above doesn't include him, and it was clearly created after 2000. Is there a source verifying this alleged Swiss citizenship more directly? For Koffi Annan, I'm of the opinion that honorary citizenship isn't enough to qualify for what this article is talking about. It's fine to discuss him in a footnote but I don't think this deserves a full table row, especially since the above NZZ.ch source also doesn't include him but does include other later-Swiss citizens like Pauli. Like, it would be weird to call Winston Churchill an American Nobel laureate because of his honorary American citizenship, right?
- Regarding Steinberger, this page from the Swiss Physical Society mentions
Seit 2000 Bürger von Genf
and the Swissinfo article mentionsEr wirkte ab 1968 am Kernforschungszentrum CERN in Genf und wurde im Jahr 2000 eingebürgert
. I would consider the Historical Dictionary of Switzerland to be a very reliable source, but I added the other two as well. Regarding Kofi Annan, I followed your suggestion and moved it to footnote [nb 3].Broc (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Verified now, thanks. (Also, for clarity, I wasn't questioning the reliability of the Historical Dictionary of Switzerland, but rather the question of whether it was even indicating Swiss citizenship at all, given that the mention was brief and oblique.)
- Regarding Steinberger, this page from the Swiss Physical Society mentions
- Additionally, four laureates acquired Swiss citizenship after the award:
Who's the fourth laureate? (Although it should be maybe two or three anyway per above if Annan is reduced to footnote status.)
- Fixed. Broc (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Ten organizations headquartered in Switzerland have received the Nobel Prize for Peace. The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees has been awarded twice, and the International Committee of the Red Cross three times. Four of these organizations were also founded in Switzerland, and they all have their headquarters in Geneva, a city hosting more than 40 international organizations and 750 non-governmental organizations.[7]
I can't find this in either https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/facts/nobel-prize-facts/ or the 2018 archived version. It all looks pretty non-controversial but perhaps needs a better source? Certainly should be easy to get a source on Geneva hosting a ton of UN & other global orgs.
- This was my mistake, I forgot to add the source I used. Fixed it now by adding a source from the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. Broc (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Geneva facts look good. However the main concern was the "ten organizations headquartered in Switzerland" bit, which is really the same question as sourcing the orgs list. See below for ideas on that.
- List entries: Organizations
While it's not the end of the world if we do a tad bit of synthesis here... is there a source that explicitly lists this out?
- I couldn't find a complete list, no. There is one at the bottom here [30] and here, but neither are comprehensive. I'm not sure how I could add these to the list, do you have a suggestion? Broc (talk) 12:10, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I think this is where we write a fancy, long reference that explains where this is coming from when it's not from a source directly. You can include the other two links to prove that the topic of Swiss organizations winning Nobels isn't synthesis even if the lists aren't mirrored exactly. Something like:
- <ref>Ten organizations are based on the comprehensive list of Organization Winners at: https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/lists/nobel-prize-awarded-organizations/ (format this nicely as a cite). Non-comprehensive lists discussing the matter can be found at: (your two links here).</ref>
- Note that you can format long references drawing on multiple sources a little more nicely with Template:Multiref2 or Template:Unbulleted list citebundle if you'd like. Can be handy to ensure the citations for webpages are on new lines. Normally I'd stick the reference in the title of the table, but since you're using a style that doesn't have titles for tables, having it in the lede section on the "Ten Swiss organizations" line is fine too.

- Switzerland is among the countries with the highest number of Nobel laureates, both in total and per capita
The "per capita" article has been deleted, FWIW. (Swiss Info Source does check out, for all it's something of a statistical artifact.)
What do you mean, the article has been deleted? I can still access both articles used as references.Broc (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Several factors have been suggested as possible explanation, including large public funding for research,[10]
[31] and [32] verify the raw amount of funding (although it's not clear it's even "public" funding - GTranslate offers "The private sector not only finances 65 percent of research and development here" for one line), but don't seem to connect it to the Nobel Prize or awards in general at all. The real reference here is https://www.srf.ch/news/schweiz/nach-physik-auszeichnung-deshalb-bringt-die-schweiz-so-viele-nobelpreistraeger-hervor - I'd reformulate the SNF links to be "see alsos" in the reference primarily cited to the SRF article, and then reuse that reference for both large public funding for research and good universities.
- Fixed. Broc (talk) 12:10, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- The Nobel Prize has also been often recognized as being biased towards Western countries.[12][13][14]
Nitpick: None of the sources seem to use the word "Switzerland" or "Swiss" (don't have access to the full Telegraph article so can't be sure there). Obviously Switzerland is a Western country, but it could be argued that the relevance of this isn't fully established. Not demanding this be removed, just it'd be nice if there was a source connecting the dots more directly. (I do get the above comment that this is to avoid being overly celebratory / chest-puffy.)
- Unfortunately, I could not find such source. However, omitting such important aspect (a widely recognized bias of Nobel prizes in favor of Western countries) only because it does not specifically mention Switzerland would not be according to WP:NPOV and give a rather promotional tone to the article. I do believe the current statement gives a fuller picture. Broc (talk) 12:10, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- If you gave it a look, it's fine. I agree it's a positive addition to the article, just a nice-to-have rather than a requirement on tying this to Swiss laureates.

- According to Nobel laureate Werner Arber, the large number of awards to Swiss nationals is "likely a statistical anomaly".
True, and in the cited source, but the source ALSO includes Richard Ernst saying that it's not a coincidence and he's confident Switzerland will remain on top in the future. Both Arber and Ernst are Nobel laureates, but there's really little reason to think that either would be THAT much more informed about Nobel-politics than, say, a historian of science like Roland Müller mentioned in passing in the article. (Plenty of Nobel laureates out there with weird opinions on things, cough, cough, James Watson.) While keeping the snappy Arber quote is fine, do you have any other sources saying it's a statistical anomaly so it's not resting solely on him? (Or, alternatively, include the nationalist "it's because the Swiss are just so awesome!" by contrast first, since it's coming from an equivalently weighted source, even if we both think it's "wrong".)
- Fixed by adding statement from Ernst. Broc (talk) 12:10, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Other comments unrelated to sources:
- Peace and Economic Sciences[nb 1],[1]
Shouldn't the footnote go after the punctuation as well? Also, this is a case where the Oxford comma is mandatory IMO even in an article that doesn't use that style, because there's an earlier entry on the list titled "Physiology or Medicine". This makes it appear that "Peace and Economic Sciences" is possibly a Nobel category as well, so a comma to set apart each list entry is required IMO.
- Fixed. Broc (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Birth & Death dates in the list
This has nothing to do with the sources, but I will plant my flag to plead that birth & death dates don't matter in this context. I know a lot of lists do include this information, and it is indeed in the Nobel webpage blurbs, but it's irrelevant and those other lists shouldn't include it either. "Age at time of Nobel award" perhaps but otherwise it's not relevant to this list. Not a blocking comment, it's up to you, but I'd personally either omit entirely, or just have a single column with both birth & death dates, sortable by birth dates. (Nobody should want to sort by death dates anyway? What would that even mean?) Totally optional, just dropping off my two cents.
Nice work overall. SnowFire (talk) 21:08, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @SnowFire I think I addressed all points, see individual comments right below yours. Please let me know your thoughts.
- As for birth and death dates: I removed the option to sort by death date (not very meaningful indeed). Age at the time of award might also be a valuable addition as the age of the laureates is often a point of discussion regarding Nobel prizes. I might add that at a later point, but would not want to remove the information in the current table, as the format is the same the Nobel Prize website uses in its blurbs. Broc (talk) 12:44, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A prestigious physics award given by the Royal Society since 1800. The article's structure (particularly the lead) is largely based on Darwin Medal, another RS Medal, which was promoted to FL in 2022. I am renominating this for FL because I feel like I've addressed all the issues that were brought up in the article's FLRC discussion. Also, I got approval for the same in a recent peer review.

Comments
- "Sir Benjamin Thompson, known as Count Rumford" - this makes it sound like it was a nickname, rather than an honorific title. Change to "Sir Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumford"
- Fixed.
- "noted for his works on thermodynamics, and for establishing the Royal Institution" - remove that comma
- Fixed.
- "one each in silver and gold, struck in the same die, and made of silver gilt." - one is silver and one is gold, but they are both made of silver? I don't understand this.
- Apologies, that was a poorly worded sentence. Initially, 2 medals were awarded (silver and gold). Later, this was changed to 1 silver-gilt medal. Similar changes were made for Copley Medal as well. I have rephrased it in the article.
- "For ten times during the early 19th century" => "Ten times during the early 19th century"
- Fixed.
- "since then it is awarded annually" => "since then it has been awarded annually"
- Fixed.
- ""For his Experiments on Heat, published in his Work, entitled, an Experimental Inquiry into the Nature and Propagation of Heat"" - is this bizarre capitalisation of random words how the source presents it?
- Yes (from ref 13). Earlier editions of RS-published sources had inconsistent capitalization, from which some of the rationales were sourced, hence the issue.
- "For his 'Experiments on the Polarization of Heat,' " - comma should be outside the quote marks (unless this is how the source presents it)
- That is how it is presented in the source (ref 32).
- "For his 'Experimental Investigations on Polarized Light,' " - same here (unless this is how the source presents it)
- Same here (ref 40).
- "the Society of Arts of May 12, 1854" - did the Society really use the US date format?
- Yes. The quote is sourced from Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society (ref 43).
- Where there were joint winners, you could merge the cells in the rationale column
- Could you please elaborate on this? The cells in the rationale column for joint winners are already merged, unless I am missing something here.
- Apologies, it was because I had re-sorted the table, which caused the cells to un-merge -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:19, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Could you please elaborate on this? The cells in the rationale column for joint winners are already merged, unless I am missing something here.

- It would be good to get the English translations of the Latin inscriptions on the medal, at least for the modern version of the medal.
- Done for the modern version. Couldn't find any source for the older version.
- "All citizens or residents of the United Kingdom, Commonwealth of Nations, or the Republic of Ireland". Since the UK is in the Commonwealth of Nations, you can skip it from this list.
- Fixed.
- Infobox: It's not obvious from the reference that the Rumford medal is just lower than the Royal Medal in precedence.
- 'Precedence' was added to maintain consistency with other RS Medal articles like Copley Medal and Royal Medal. I couldn't find any other source explicitly mentioning the order of precedence, so retained the source cited there. The awards in the table are listed in decreasing order (Royal Medal is the lowest rank of Premier Awards; subject-specific medals are of equivalent rank). I'm willing to remove this section if the source isn't good enough. Please let me know.
- Suggestion: Expand the "No award rowspan to cover the "Notes" column too.

- "The diameter of the medal is 3 inches (7.62 cm). British painter Robert Smirke created the original design of the medal." Exchange the order of these two sentences, since the next few sentences are about the medal's design.
- Use of the word "Currently" is frowned upon per MOS:CURRENTLY. you can replace it with something else. e.g. "As of <year of change>,". -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:38, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is the sixth list in a series on Seattle sports team seasons that I have brought to FLC, and one for one of the newer teams in the area. Seattle Reign FC are in their 12th season as a top-flight women's soccer team and have yet to win a league championship, but not for a lack of trying, with three podium finishes. The list is formatted similarly to List of Seattle Sounders FC seasons, which blends American sports lists with the international soccer standards. SounderBruce 19:13, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- "the best performing team [....] with the most points" - is this not a bit tautological?
- Removed "best performing" to make it clearer; American sports can have multiple ways of determining the "best" team.
- "The NWSL Cup champion" - is this the same thing as the NWSL Challenge Cup?
- Fixed.
- "The Reign set the standalone single-match attendance record" - is the word "standalone" needed here? In this context does it not just mean the same as "single-match"?
- Removed "single"; the Reign also have a higher reported attendance from a "doubleheader" with the Sounders where one ticket was good for both games on the same day, but separate numbers weren't released.
- "The winner of that competition qualifies for the FIFA Women's Club World Cup" - given that that competition hasn't launched yet, I think this needs to be in the future tense (this occurs in two places)

- In the table you can remove the SC column since it has no data.
- The SC column is for a new annual tournament that will begin in a few weeks' time. It is expected to be a regular and major event, so I think it warrants its own column.
- Italics seems to be for an ongoing competition, but it is used in the 2020 season's row.
- Removed.
- The Div cells can be merged since they have been in the same Division since their inception. Ditto for the League column.
- These are standard across soccer lists due to other leagues employing promotion and relegation. There is also a chance that the table could be transcluded into History of professional soccer in Seattle, which would also include the lower-division women's teams in the area.
- Sorting the CC column in descending order should show SF, the QF, then GS, right?
- Similar issue with the result column for the other competitions.
Also, I think you can replace "W" with "1st", for consistency with the "Position" column.- These are sorted similar to other soccer lists for simplicity, since the sort anchor is by the number of teams remaining at each stage of the competition (e.g. 01 for winning, 04 for semifinals, 08 for quarterfinals).

Hey man im josh
Source review: Passed
- Reliable enough for the information being cited
- Consistent date formatting
- Consistent and proper reference formatting
- Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
- Spot checks on 14 sources match what they are being cited for
Feedback:
- Consider adding the
{{Use mdy dates|July 2024}}
template to the top of the article under the short description in case anybody else adds references later on and they are not as careful as you've been- Added.
- I think the position column could be titled better. Is it their division placement, their placement in the regular season, what is this?
- Added tooltip description.
- Several of the cells in the total column should probably be combined and greyed out, or at least greyed out to indicate they aren't going to be filled, such as the playoffs, CC, SC, and "other" columns. They're not really a good thing to try to summarize the "total" of at that location.
- Grayed out most of the columns.
- Do the statistics included in the table include all playoff statistics as well? I'm not sure how it works in soccer stat tracking, which is why I'd like to know about this.
- Playoffs are not counted in the main table, per international norms that treat them as secondary competitions.
- Is the intent, should the Reign finish last in a season, to list their position as "last", or to list the actual placement number? If it's not the text "last", then
- Removed, as hopefully it won't ever need to be used. It was a holdover from tables that indicate promotion and relegation, which is very unlikely to be implemented anytime soon in NWSL.
- Is there any reason that Rapinoe islisted ahead of Balcer in the 2022 row? I believe we typically order alphabetically by last name in instances of ties
- Rapinoe had more assists, so she is listed first in FBref; this is a pretty common tiebreaker when determining the Golden Boot winner for many leagues.
- Have you always only wikilinked on first mention of a source in references? You're consistent in doing so here, for the most part. I obviously prefer to link everytime, since references get added and changed, but I was just seeking clarity before my next comment
- Either wikilink more than the first occurence, or
- Ref 27 – Remove link to Sports Reference
- Removed. I prefer to only link the first instance in citations.
- Refs 1, 2, 4, 6 – Add a subscription needed tag, I'm assuming you have a Seattle Times subscription given your interests :P
- Added a limited tag, as the paywall usually allows for some free articles.
- Refs 14 and 27 – I believe the convention would be to change "FBref" to FBref.com and wikilink in 14 but not 27

Drive by comments, I'll be back for a full review later on:
- A number of these year ranges use 4 digits for the second part of the range while others only use 2 digits.
- Under the team achievements section, most of the items in that should be changes to title case (I'll call it out more specifically in the full review depending on what changes are made before I get to it)
- "Single season" vs "single-season" – You used "single season", but most refs tend to use "single-season". I believe "single-season" is correct.

- Hey man im josh, I addressed all of them except the title case, which I will wait for your full review. Note that if a date range covers a transition from 1999 to 2000, the years should be expanded to 4 digits. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 20:39, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Source review: Passed
- Reliable enough for the information being cited
- Consistent date formatting
- Consistent and proper reference formatting
- Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
- Spot checks on 10 sources match what they are being cited for
Feedback:
- Ref 6 – Should be Green Bay Packers 2023 instead
- Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:05, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- A lot of refs – Shouldn't these be "Green Bay Packers (2023)" instead of "Green Bay Packers 2023"? This isn't a ref format I'm super comfortable or confident in, but, given the source listed above as "Green Bay Packers (2023)", I thought it best if they matched
- No, per the {{Sfn}} template, this is how it is supposed to be. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:05, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't particularly LOVE FootballDB.com as a source, but I recognize that PFR is lacking in some of the stats they provide for free. Has footballDB.com ever been evaluated for reliability at any of the relevant boards? I would appreciate a recognized reliable source outside of PFR for statistics.
- I replaced that FootballDB sources. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:59, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- A number of these "seasons leading the league in xyz" under the notable records section could be wikilinked to the annual lists in Category:Lists of National Football League annual leaders, particularly for the instances where it's an NFL record.
- Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:34, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Are you calling out ties for NFL records? I see ties / most recent person to accomplish a feat listed for non-records. I'm looking at most safeties in a season specifically, where there's apparently been 19 other players who have also accomplished 2 safeties in a single season. Another example would be longest reception (99 yards).
- I am not doing that. Do you think it is necessary? « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:59, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Other notable records -> Offense -> Most seasons leading league in lowest interception percentage – Should call out minimum number of attempts to qualify.
- The source doesn't provide this. My assumption is that each season had to qualify, but that would likely be OR. Thoughts? « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:34, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Other notable records -> Offense -> Most seasons leading league in receiving yards – Stray "pg 292" in text which looks like it was meant to be in the ref
- Deleted. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:05, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Note i, for sacks becoming an official stat in 1982 – Can you tweak this note to state whether this is counting that or not? I know we have stats available for 1960–1981, and though these are unofficial, we both know the NFL and teams often count them as if they were. Could be a useful clarifying point, though, it looks like it doesn't make a difference to who holds the record.
- Clarified. The Packers restrict these totals to post-1982, so I will here too. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:34, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Career records -> Special teams -> Yards per punt (net) – What's the threshold to qualify? I'll note that PFR uses a threshold of 250 punts for career punting stats, which would mean it probably should be Tim Masthay for this as well
- Added threshold and fixed. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:59, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Single-season records -> Offense -> QB rating – No qualifying threshold stated.
- Added threshold. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:59, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Use "&" instead of a comma to separate the two players, as it looks like that's what you're trying to do throughout.
- Single-game records -> Offense -> Passing -> Attempts
- Single-game records -> Offense -> Passing -> Yards
- Single-game records -> Special teams -> Punting -> Punts
- Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:08, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Other notable records -> Offense -> Most consecutive seasons leading league in total touchdowns – Close the brackets
- Brackets closed. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:05, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- I don't necessarily think it's necessary to call out when something noted as an NFL record is a tie. I think it might be nice to have it as T-NFL record in the bracket to make it clear, but I won't be a stickler for it. Source review passed, support.

Comments by Alavense
- Since entering the NFL, the team has won 13 championships (the most in NFL history), including nine NFL Championships prior to 1966 and four Super Bowls, which is inclusive of two additional NFL Championships won during the AFL–NFL merger. - As per MOS:NUMNOTES, "Comparable values nearby one another should be all spelled out or all in figures, even if one of the numbers would normally be written differently".
- 40 years later - Figures at the beginning of a sentence should be avoided.
- "phenomena" is the plural of "phenomenon", so a relatively recent phenomena doesn't make sense.
- In the first table, it should say "Ref." as there's only one. Please include the "." and maybe you can use {{abbr}}.
- over a two season period - "a two-season period".
- I see a lack of consistency when it comes to the saxon genitive: Donald Driver holds the Packers record but Davante Adams set the Packers' single-season receiving records. There are several instances of this.
- In the notes, Minimum one attempt per game to qualify but Minimum 1 kick return per game to qualify.
That's all I saw, Gonzo fan2007. Nice work. Alavense (talk) 08:57, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the review Alavense! I implemented the first five bullets and the last one. Regarding the saxon genitive, does there need to be consistency? I often try not to be repetitive, so there is some purposeful change to sentence structure and diction. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:55, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are several featured lists covering the international goals of several prominent footballers, but Pelé's is not yet among those. I've significantly expanded the lead and sourced all of his goals, so I'm hopeful this now meets the FL criteria. Sgubaldo (talk) 01:06, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- "Pelé made his debut for Brazil in a 1–2 defeat" => "Pelé made his debut for Brazil in a 2–1 defeat" (the norm is to always write the higher score first, regardless of the result from the team in question's perspective (e.g. "England drop further points at home in their Euro 2025 qualifying campaign as they fall to a 2-1 defeat by group leaders France", "the Portland Timbers suffered a 2-0 loss to Charlotte FC at Bank of America on Saturday night", "FC Dallas Suffers 2-0 Defeat to Seattle Sounders FC in Postseason Opener")
- "Following the tournament, he was nicknamed" - this would be far more appropriate in the previous paragraph, where the tournament in question is discussed
- "Although Brazil came runners-up" => "Although Brazil were runners-up"
- "and included in the Time list" - link Time
- Note a needs a full stop
- Conversely note c does not
- "He was surpassed by Northern Ireland's Norman Whiteside in the 1982 FIFA World Cup" => "He was surpassed by Northern Ireland's Norman Whiteside at the 1982 FIFA World Cup"

- Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding
!scope=row
to each primary cell, e.g.! style="text-align: center;"|1
becomes!scope=row | 1
(on its own line). - Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear.

Sources
- Footballdatabase.eu is user generated content (see discussion at RSN)
- Replaced. –S
- What makes Sambafoot a reliable source?
- I haven't seen any issues with it at RSN and it's the only source that shows specifically what goals were scored by who in the two matches it's cited for. I'm happy to replace it with 11v11.com if you disagree. –S
- It looks like a gambling-focused site, so probably more regulated than a general one. On reflection, seems fine. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 12:17, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I haven't seen any issues with it at RSN and it's the only source that shows specifically what goals were scored by who in the two matches it's cited for. I'm happy to replace it with 11v11.com if you disagree. –S
- Goal (website) could be "Goal"
- Is it not like that already? –S
- I must have been looking at the edit view and confused myself. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 12:21, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Is it not like that already? –S
- Spot check on "Pelé scored seven international hat-tricks, the most of any Brazilian player." - what's the support in the source for this being "the most of any Brazilian player"?
- Added another source to better support this. –S
- Spot check on "one of only five players, the others being Uwe Seeler, Miroslav Klose, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lionel Messi, to have scored in four separate ones" - no issues
- "At the 1958 FIFA World Cup, Pelé was at the time the youngest player to participate in a World Cup" - as this is supported by the Mukherjee source (#9) rather than by the FIFA one (#10), I think it would be better to have #9 inline in the body as well as attached to the note.
- Placed inline as well. –S
- Spot check on "He finished the tournament with six goals, behind a record-breaking Just Fontaine, and was named best young player of the tournament" - not all supported by the cited page.
- The source does show that he won best young player and came second in the Golden Boot race. That being said, I've added another source specifically to support the fact that Just Fontaine broke the record for most goals. –S
- "he was nicknamed O Rei (The King)" - I'm not seeing support for this in the cited source.
- Added another source to support this. –S
- Spot check on "emerged as a worldwide black sporting star" - no issues.
- Spot check on "scored his final international goal on 11 July 1971 against Austria, and made his final appearance for Brazil against Yugoslavia on 18 July 1971." - no issues
- "Pelé is widely regarded as one of the greatest football players of all time and was among the most successful and popular sports figures of the 20th century." - seems a fair statement given the Olympics source which provides next inline citation, and the following sources cited.
- Spot check on "included in the Time list of the 100 most important people of the 20th century," - no issues. It really was by Kissinger.
- I also did a double take when I first saw that. –S
- Pass for source review. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 12:23, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
General comments
- I accepted the changes to the list suggested by scripts about hyphens/dashes and replacing curly quotes with straight - please check, and revert if required.
- Changes are fine, thanks. –S
- I see there have been a couple of recent changes to the article. I think the restoration on 13 July is reasonable.
- The editor had added non-full international appearances which, to my understanding, are never included in these sorts of lists. –S
- "remains Brazil's youngest ever goalscorer"/"seven international hat-tricks, the most of any Brazilian player"/"He is the only footballer to have won three World Cups and is one of only five players, the others being Uwe Seeler, Miroslav Klose, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lionel Messi, to have scored in four separate ones" - these statements will possibly become outdated. Consider rephrasing (e.g. to the effect "As of 2024, ...")
- I think "remains Brazil's youngest ever goalscorer" is fine as is. I've added something for the other two statements. –S
- In the Goals table, is 1–2 meant to appear between 1–1 and 2–0 in the Result column when it is sorted?
- That's how it appears on other featured lists; is there a better way of sorting it? –S
- That's fine then, it just didn't quite seem sequential. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 12:21, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- That's how it appears on other featured lists; is there a better way of sorting it? –S
- The sorting by date in the Hat-tricks table doesn't seem to work properly.
- Fixed. –S

It's been a while since I have nominated an article/list, but here I am with another, List of SB19 live performances! This list documents the live performances that the Filipino boy band SB19 have done since their debut, including tours, one-off concerts, awards shows, television, and more. I began revamping this list last February, but only progressed much later in May, and I finally finished it this week. This has to be the hardest list I have got my hands on revamping; sorting their performances, working with multiple sources, and the size of the article is definitely a pain.
The revamping of lists like this is part of my efforts to improve Wikipedia's coverage of SB19, hopefully getting them to have their featured topic soon! I believe I have improved the list pretty significantly from its previous state with the criteria in mind, and I think this list is deserving to be promoted as a featured list. I would be happy to address all your concerns, suggestions, and feedback; they are much appreciated. I sincerely thank the reviewers in advance who will put their time and effort here. – Relayed (t • c) 18:35, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

– The template has the dash "—" already applied. Ditto for the next few sections.- Done; thanks for spotting that!
Would it be better to add rowspans? Except the show numbers. See List of Regine Velasquez live performances. Ditto for the next few sections.- I prefer avoiding rowspans for this list because I think the extra cell borders make it easier to read information row-by-row, especially since there is a lot of similar information in the tables, which can be quite difficult to navigate if rowspans are in place. Also, I use some of the "Virtual" cells with notes for additional information as to where the footages of their performances were recorded.

- "They also attended several virtual music festivals" - "attended" makes it sound a bit like they were in the audience of just hanging about. Suggest changing to a word which makes it clear that they actually performed.
- "Additionally, SB19 have also performed at the 2023 Asia Artist Awards and became a featured act at several music festivals" => "Additionally, SB19 have also performed at the 2023 Asia Artist Awards and been a featured act at several music festivals"
- For things like the UP Fair: Hiwaga, I would put "unknown" under "songs performed", as the dash makes it look like they performed no songs
- "Dunkin' Presents: SB19 was initially scheduled for March 19, 2020, with the title Dunkin' Presents: Give in to SB19,[35] until postponed to April 23, 2022" => Dunkin' Presents: SB19 was initially scheduled for March 19, 2020, with the title Dunkin' Presents: Give in to SB19,[35] but was postponed to April 23, 2022"

- Swift's sixth studio album, Reputation (2017), was supported by negligible television performances -- suggest an alternative wording for negligible, or perhaps since she did little TV performances, you can lead into the Reputation tour directly.
- It is the first concert tour in history to surpass $1 billion in box score revenue. -- maybe some wording here can be piped to List of highest-grossing concert tours, since it is a notable record and one she currently tops.
- In the "Concert tours" table, I don't think we need to link the countries/territories (per MOS:OL)
- In the reference column for all your tables, I would update the abbreviation to "Ref(s)" since it is written as "Reference(s)" when hovered.

I think while it makes sense to not link "common" countries like U.S., England... there are also "lesser-known" ones like Wales, Northern Ireland... so I decide to link them all to avoid potential demographic biases. Ippantekina (talk) 06:13, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- That seems reasonable. Maybe just a minor nitpick but not a deal-breaker. Pseud 14 (talk) 13:13, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- For the lead's first sentence, shouldn't it be (American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift) rather than (The American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift)? Something about the use of the determiner seems off to me, but I could be wrong though.
- This list and all other articles within the T.Swift WProject adhere to WP:FALSETITLE, which is not an official MOS but a very helpful guide. Ippantekina (talk) 02:36, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I am still not a fan of it, but I believe this falls under personal preference so it will not hold up my review. Aoba47 (talk) 12:34, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I switched it up a little. Ippantekina (talk) 07:26, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks good to me. Aoba47 (talk) 21:13, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- For the lead's second sentence, I do not think "various" adds much and can be cut as the focus seems to be more on the different venues where she has performed.
- done. Ippantekina (talk) 07:26, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- This is super nitpick-y so apologies in advance but I would use "television" rather than the acronym in this part (as well as on TV and radio). I would do the same for the "TV shows and specials" section heading.

- Taylor Swift albums discography is linked twice in the lead.
- done. Ippantekina (talk) 03:56, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- The lead makes a point that The Red Tour was her last tour as a country artist, but it does not specify what genre she transitioned to after that for her subsequent tours.
- While I found no sources that described the 1989 Tour as a "pop tour", I added something about the genre shift. Ippantekina (talk) 05:44, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I doubt that the countries need to be linked in the tables as most readers would be familiar with these areas. This kind of thing is brought up in MOS:OVERLINK. Also, since the table is sortable, there are instances where the first time the country appears is not linked. I would limit the links more so to cities and more specific areas like that. I respectfully disagree with your above "potential demographic biases" argument.
- I responded above to Pseud14 who has the same concern. Ippantekina (talk) 02:36, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I did see that response, and your argument there does not convince me. Aoba47 (talk) 12:34, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- While thinking this over further, this should not be a big deal since it was not a major concern for any of the other reviewers here. Aoba47 (talk) 14:31, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- The linking for the tables is inconsistent. The award shows, such as the American Music Awards, are linked in every instance, but the television shows, like Good Morning America, are only linked on the first instance. On top of that, since the table is sortable, readers may encounter an unlinked term before getting to the actual link. To account for that, I would think that everything would need to be linked. Other examples of this would be Rascal Flatts being only linked once in the "As opening act'" table or the song titles only being linked once.
- Awards shows are linked to the yearly ceremony and thus each link is different. Ippantekina (talk) 02:36, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Apologies for that, and thank you for your clarification. I should have checked the awards links more thoroughly. That being said, my other point still stands. Since the tables are sortable, it cannot be controlled which entry a reader may encounter first. Things like songs are currently linked on only the first instance if no sorting is done, but if a readers does sort, they may through multiple, unlinked entries before getting to the link. As I said above, I would think that every item would have to linked in each instance to account for this. Aoba47 (talk) 18:55, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It makes sense as WP:DL does say that duplicate links are allowed in tables. I'll implement this shortly! Ippantekina (talk) 04:32, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Why is the performed songs portion blank for the University of Phoenix Stadium entry? I have the same question for the Country Radio Seminar entry later on.

I am sorry, but I oppose this list for promotion, primarily because of errors in the citations. I have also noticed inconsistencies with how linking is handled in the tables, which would not be as big of an issue by itself. Apologies again, and I would be more than happy to revisit this review once my comments are addressed. You have always done great work so I hope that this does not come across as too harsh or anything overly negative. Aoba47 (talk) 18:22, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Thank you for responding to everything. It all looks good to me. My only remaining point is that the citation for the first Nova's Red Room performance does not support the songs. The archived citation (at least for me) goes to an overview of different articles on the site. I do see a link to an article about her performing "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" there, but that does not appear to be archived. Once that has been addressed, I will be more than happy to support this FLC for promotion. Aoba47 (talk) 16:26, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I couldn't find a replacement ref anywhere so I'll remove that until a reliable source is found... Ippantekina (talk) 16:25, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Unfortunately, I had a feeling that would be the case. I tried to either get access to a better archived version of the original source or to find a different citation, but I did not have any luck with either. Removing it would be the best option. I approach this kind of list as containing all of the notable live performances of a particular artist, rather than being an exhaustive list so since I think that it is okay that this performance does not make it due to a lack of a citation. I did not look through newspapers so maybe that would help, but I think this is the right choice for now.

Comments (ec with last editor)
- "She has additionally performed in various festivals, awards shows, benefit concerts, and sporting events" - unless usage in US English is different, I would suggest this should be "She has additionally performed at various festivals, awards shows, benefit concerts, and sporting events". Certainly in the variety of English spoken in my neck of the woods, one does not perform "in" a music festival. But, as I said, maybe US usage is different......?

- Tour names starting with "The" should sort based om the next word in the name
- done. Ippantekina (talk) 03:48, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Any particular reason why the first three tables have the name of the event first and the dates second, and then suddenly it switches to the other way round?
- I followed other examples like List of Lady Gaga live performances, and if I rationalize that myself, each concert tour (the content of the first 3 tables) is a combination of various concerts and hence the tour names being listed first makes more sense; plus dates are presented in rage so including them first is confusing imo. Meanwhile other events (TV, radio, awards) are one-off events so it makes more sense to sort it chronologically by including the event date first. Ippantekina (talk) 03:48, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Did she not perform any songs at "Trails West!" and some of the others, or is it just unknown what she performed? If the latter, I would suggest putting "unknown" or similar, as the dash honestly looks like it means "none"

- Is there any value in that songs column being sortable given that it will only ever sort based on the first song listed?

Source review
Most sources in the article are reliable. Some are acceptable primary sources (i.e. iHeartRadio source to confirm a show at the iHeartRadio Music Festival). Some are long-established local newspapers related to the city where Swift played. However, there are some sources that don't appear to be reliable at a first glance.
- PopCrush is listed as unreliable at WP:A/S.
- Is it possible to replace Bustle, Newsweek, and Us Weekly with better sources? They aren't considered generally reliable per WP:RSPSOURCES.
- What is the reliability of the following sources: Linfonerealtv, The Boot, Pure Charts, British Comedy Guide, and Canoe.com?
- Swapped Linfonerealtv with Cosmopolitan
- The Boot is published by Townsquare Media who also publishes music review sites listed in Metacritic like BrooklynVegan and XXL. Writers that contributed to The Boot include Annie Zaleski for example ([40]) Ippantekina (talk) 16:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Pure Charts (fr:Charts in France), British Comedy Guide and Canoe.com are all news portals so they should suffice in their usage as reports on live appearances. I don't see issues with them. Ippantekina (talk) 16:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I haven't done spotchecks, but I checked one source, [37], and it doesn't confirm the August 18, 2007 date.

- Swapped with another source. Ippantekina (talk) 16:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, I'll get back to you asap. My preliminary comments are that while Bustle, Us Weekly are not the most reliable for BLP or commentary, in this usage as reports of popular culture they should suffice. Ippantekina (talk) 03:05, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey @Ippantekina. No rush, just following up on a number of FLC comments at the moment. Just pinging to see if the concerns have all been addressed. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:47, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since Skyshifter didn't do spotchecks, I used a random number generator to check 10, and found some consistent problems:
- 23, 67, 218, 236 - good
- 72, 125, 155, 189, 248 - does not explicitly state the date
- 48 - does not explicitly state the date, does not say it's part of the Fearless tour, implies she sang more than the two songs listed
I do believe that the information given is accurate; why wouldn't it be. But over half of the randomly selected refs don't actually say the date for the event they're citing, as far as I can see, which I feel is problematic. Please see what you can do to address this in general (presumably this is an issue for more than just these specific refs). --PresN 00:28, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Generally news coverage of awards shows/TV like 72, 125, 155 are published pretty much immediately after the events happen; of course articles that explicitly mention the dates do exist so I hope to find alternatives asap. 48 does imply she sang more than the 2 songs listed but since it doesn't say more, why would we include more; plus the "Part of the Fearless Tour" is cited by ref 35. Ippantekina (talk) 16:54, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @PresN: update, I'm running through all refs again to make sure they mention the exact dates. For refs that fail this verification and there are no replacement news/articles/reports, I use {{Cite episode}} or {{Cite AV media}} which are a little on the nose but the second best thing we can go for.. Will update you once it's done. Ippantekina (talk) 03:55, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because this is a comprehensive list of equipment for the discipline of rock climbing. While individual elements of rock climbing equipment will change/evolve, the essence is quite stable. Rock climbing is now a new Olympic Sport, so I think this area will get even more attention in the future. I had proposed it as a GA but the recommendation was that the article was more of a list, which is correct, and that it would be a good suggestion as an FL per Talk:Rock-climbing equipment/GA1. thank you.

- Comments by RunningTiger123
This review will take me a little while – feel free to ping me if I go more than a few days without following up.
- Images need alt text
- Done.
- "And finally" → "Finally,"
- Done.
- The lead lists modern devices with the older devices they replaced – where is this information supported in the body? For instance, I see no mention of chockstones after the lead.
- Done., I have mentioned chockstones in the body, where they were replaced by nuts.
- Not technically wrong, but the list has a tendency to overuse parentheses; some of them can be reworked
- Example: Under Type of climbing, "and its X variant" doesn't need parentheses
- Done., hopefully that is better now.
- Another example: The second paragraph of Ropes (starting with "Some climbers will use...") has 4 sets of parentheses in one sentence. This ends up feeling really choppy.
- Done., and agree, hopefully better now.
- Per MOS:ACRO1STUSE, write out acronyms where they first appear: UIAA, CEN, OSHA, maybe CE marking?
- Done., CE marking is the actual name here.
- "in lieu CEN" → "in lieu of CEN"
- Done.
- "which are (circa 7–8 mm)" – misuse of parentheses
- Done.
- "(or 'tape')," – no comma needed
- Done.

- Delighted that you are willing to help @RunningTiger123. This is (clearly) my first attempt at Featured article status. I have a few GAs under my belt and I think I am writing at a reasonable GA standard, but have little concept of FA stardard, but if you are up for it, I would love to learn and happy to spend time on this with you at whatever pace you prefer. thanks again :) Aszx5000 (talk) 13:02, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
More comments:
- "European European Committee for Standardization" – redundant
- Done.
- "e.g. the asymmetric/offset D-shape is the most common" – misuse of "e.g."
- Done.
- "e.g." means "for example" – if you substitute "for example" in place of "e.g." and it doesn't make sense, you're using the wrong phrase
- understand thanks,
- "(and materials used)" – no need for parentheses
- Done.
- "e.g. they require little in the way of gear-carrying loops" – another misuse of "e.g."
- Done.
- "e.g. to fit around heaving winter clothing" – same thing
- Done.
- Link Petzl and Wild Country at first occurrence (as well as any other companies)
- Done.
- First paragraph under Belay devices is unsourced
- Done.
- "e.g. a static rope that is hanging from a fixed anchor" – another "e.g."
- Done.
- "Petzel Traxion" – typo for Petzl
- Done.
- "Petzel Micro Traxion, and Camp Lift" – no comma needed, also same typo?
- Done.
- "SCLDs" – should be SLCDs? (occurs twice)
- Done.
- "like a Hex" – use lowercase for consistency
- Done.
- Don't hyphenate "bolt-hangers" for consistency
- Done.
- "stands one on aider" – I think this should be "stands on one aider"?
- Done.
- "Rock climbing hammers are mainly used..." – bullet point doesn't follow the same opening format as all of the others
- Done.
- A lot of bullet points under Miscellaneous equipment are unsourced
- Done., I also added one extra item, the Knee pad, which is a commonly used piece of equipment
- "is used by all rock climbers" – all is a strong word, so it either needs to be clearly sourced or removed
- Done., changed to "is very popular amongst rock climbers"
- Remove comma after parentheses for medical tape
- Done.
- Suggest archiving web sources (see WP:IABOT)
- checking this.

- General
- Be conscientious of your use of "where", which is often not the best word for what you are trying to say.
- done, good point and have reduced the # of where's to 3
- I'm not sure of Wikipedia's policy on "e.g."... Ill try to see if I can find something.
- I found MOS:ABBR, and while there is no mention of "e.g." it does use the term a lot?
- You use a lot of parentheses; not necessarily bad but it is best to try to word sentences in such a way that this isn't needed as much.
- That is a fair point. I have taken out most cases where they are used outside of when it is an "(e.g. )" or "(also known as..)" situation.
- Lead
- Why is "rock-climbing" hyphenated in the title and the article? Rock climbing isn't.
- I am not sure about the grammar of whether combining the word "equipment" necessitates the hyphen. I have found books with/without the hyphen. I am happy to do either way but would need admin support to remove it as it was originally moved from the existing rock climbing equipment in 2011?
- When this FLC is done, it should be moved. I've never seen the hyphen before and don't see any grammatical necessity for it. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:33, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Climbers use webbing that has been sewn using a certified standard of reinforced stitching into various lengths of closed loops called "slings" (or "runners"), which can be used in a wide range of situations, including wrapping around sections of rock (e.g. for abseiling, or creating belay anchors, or as passive protection), or tied to other equipment—often via carabiners—to create a longer version of a quickdraw or even a makeshift lanyard.
long run-on sentence. Find somewhere to split into two.
- done.
- "Circa" again
- done, replaced for full article.
Cord loops (also known as "cordelettes") serve a wide variety of functions in rock climbing including creating friction prusik knots for ascending or gripping fixed climbing ropes, usually using thinner circa 5–6 mm cord, or for attaching to, and equalizing forces across, multiple fixed anchors points,[15] such as when setting up abseil or belay anchors on multi-pitch climbing routes, usually using thicker circa 7–8 mm cord.
long run-on sentence again. Split.
- done
- Rope devices
- You define "SLD" multiple times in the article. You also link the second use of the term. You should really link and define at the first instance. Maybe move the SLD section up above descenders?
- done, per above, I have now linked to it at its first mention in the "Type of climbing" sub-section. Given that, have not moved the SLD section above Descenders, and left in alphabetical order?
- Protection devices
- This section is the only one where you introduce the term with a full stop immediately after (e.g.
Hexes.
instead ofHexes are...
). Recommend changing to be consistent.
- done, have changed to be consistent with the rest of the article
Tricams are typically cheaper and lighter than SLCDs, and are less in use today.

which are a central part of the technique of aid climbing where they are normally used in pairs
some rewrite needed as it is confusing. Is it a central part of aid climbing only when used in pairs? "where" is probably not the right word either (when is more appropriate)
- done, split sentence and re-worded to ".. and are a central part of the technique of aid climbing. They are normally used in pairs .."
Like aiders, daisy chains are also a central part of aid climbing where they link the harness to the aider (see above);
not sure what you mean by "where they link the harness to the aider" nor do I understand what the "see above" is referencing.
- done, re-worded to "Like aiders, daisy chains are also a central part of aid climbing. They are used to attach the harness to the aider. Care has to be taken ...."
Copperheads are only used in aid climbing and their low strength means that they can only handle the "static bodyweight" of an ascending aid climber, and will likely fail where the climber makes a dynamic fall.
the first and should be a "but" and the comma before the second "and" isn't needed

These are steel hooks of various shapes (e.g. bat hook, talon hook, grappling hook, etc.,) that are hung from cracks and flakes (e.g. the fifi hook and skyhook). Mostly used in aid climbing, but they have been used in extreme traditional climbing routes as a last resort (i.e.hook placements may not withstand a dynamic fall).

Belay gloves are used to protect the hands when doing lots of belaying (especially on big wall climbing routes), and their construction from leather or other hard-wearing materials, generally improves grip with the rope, which lessens the risk of a failure of the belay system.

This is a comprehensive list of writers shortlisted for the annual BBC National Short Story Award. It's the first list article that I've made but, as far as I can tell, it meets all the criteria for a featured list. Il lupa (talk) 13:02, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- "(previously known as the National Short Story Award, 2006-2007)" - I think "(known as the National Short Story Award in 2006 and 2007)" would work better
- "It is an annual short story contest in the United Kingdom which is open to UK residents and nationals" - I would move it to the first sentence i.e. "The BBC National Short Story Award is an annual....." and then move the bit about it being prestigious into the second sentence
- "the winners receives" - this should be easier "the winner receives" or "the winners receive" but not what you have currently

- Sorting the results column should put the runner-ups between the winners and the short-listed candidates.
- Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding
!scope=col
to each header cell, e.g.! Year
becomes!scope=col | Year
. If the cell spans multiple columns with a colspan, then use!scope=colgroup
instead. - Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding

Source review - BennyOnTheLoose
Happy to discuss any of these points. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 15:53, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @BennyOnTheLoose Thanks for all your feedback! I've gone through and updated everything apart from two small things:
- I agree that it would be better to change "Each year, the winner receives £15,000 and four shortlisted writers receive £600 each..." to "As of 2017..." but I don't technically have a source for the year, I can just tell by looking at past winners. Given that, I'm not sure if I should change the sentence?
- I do not have a 2024 source for Sarah Hall.
- If I've missed anything or made any mistakes, let me know. Il lupa (talk) 16:37, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Il lupa: Thanks, just a couple of points pending. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 10:01, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- For the two points you've mentioned above, I think MOS:NOW gives some helpful advice about rewording.
- Lead has the BBC quote ""the most prestigious [award] for a single short story", but the more independent (London Met) has "one of the most prestigious for a single short story". I think it would be better to add the "one of" qualification, unless there is another good source.
- "As of 2018, the BBC National Short Story Award has not had an all-male shortlist" - I think it should be "As of 2018, the BBC National Short Story Award had not had an all-male shortlist"
Source review
- I made some changes suggested by scripts, including one for consistency in how dates appear. Please review to see if there are any issues with those changes.
- ISSN is not required for newspapers, but if you are including it then it should be there for all citations, for consistency.
- Some inconsistency in how sources are shown, e.g. first ref has BBC, but "Fifteenth BBC National Short Story Award shortlist revealed" has www.bbc.co.uk.
- publisher=The Globe and Mail location=Toronto - inconsistent with other cite news templates used here. I think it's best to just use work (or newspaper).
- Similarly, Belfast Telegraph should be either work or newspaper, not "publisher"
- WP:RSN has "no consensus" for reliability of The Spectator. I think for what it's supporting here, it's fine to use that publication.
- No concerns with the reliability and suitability of the other sources used, for the topic and the information supported.
- The info in the Notes is cited in the lead. Personally I'd prefer that the sources were added to the footnotes too, but it wouldn't be grounds for a source review failure if they were not.
- I think that the text Includes full text of story after the Creamer & Wood citation is fine, as there is no suitable parameter in the cite news template that I can see.
- What makes the BBC itself a suitable source for "It has been described as 'the most prestigious [award] for a single short story"?
- The quote in the previous bullet should be in double quotion marks. (MOS:DOUBLE)
- Spot check on "the richest prize in the world for a single short story" - no issues (except "Richard Lea" should appear as "Lea, Richard")
- "Rosemary Westwood" should appear as Rosemary "Westwood, Rosemary"
- Spot check on "Each year, the winner receives £15,000 and four shortlisted writers receive £600 each" - supported by the source; but I wonder if it would be better to phrase this with something like "As of 2024..." given that later we find out that originally "while runners up received £3,000 and shortlisted writers £500 each". Also, the prizes might not always be the same amounts in future.
- "£500 each.[5][4]" - some editors prefer citations in numerical order. Not necessary to swap the five and four, but you could if you wanted to. (Same with "[4][1]" and "[16][1]")
- Spot check on "It was founded in 2005 and announced at the Edinburgh International Book Festival the same year" - no issues
- Optionally, you could add an author-link= parameter for Aida Edemariam.
- Spot check on "The BBC National Short Story Award has never had an all-male shortlist" - source is from 2018 so cannot support "never"
- Spot check on " In 2009, only women were featured on the shortlist" - no issues
- Spot check on "Sarah Hall, who won the award in 2013 and 2020, is the only writer to have won the award twice" - source is from 2020 so can't support info from after that. It's perhaps fair to argue that it is supported by the fully cited tables later in the article, but is there a 2024 source that confirms this?
- Pass for source review. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 08:31, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
General comments
- Per MOS:£, £ should only be wikilinked, if at all, at the first instance.
- "Canadian writer D. W. Wilson became the youngest ever recipient of the award in 2011" - consider adding the author's age at time of winning.
- I think that If a book is locked there's probably a good reason for that, don't you think? and And the moon descends on the temple that was might need some extra capitals - please review MOS:TITLECAPS and let me know what you think.

Hey man im josh
Since their creation, the Kraken have drafted 28 players, the 2023 NHL entry draft being the third in which they participated.
– The juxtaposition from picks to the 2023 being their third draft is choppy and needs rewording.- You switch back and forth calling them Seattle and Kraken in the lead, pick one and stick with it.
- Down case 2021 NHL Entry Draft to 2021 NHL entry draft
- There's a lot of info that could be helpful that's not included in the second paragraph and I think it needs to be expanded to better explain the draft process a bit. A high level overview obviously, but this isn't as clear as I think it could be.
After the end of his rookie 2022–23 season, Beniers won the Calder Memorial Trophy as the League’s best rookie
– Remove "end of his rookie" from the first part of the sentence. The second part explains the award clearly enough that this information is redundant....managing 24 goals and 33 assists in 80 games.
– Probably improved by replacing "managing" with "having accumulated".The Kraken's second overall draft pick in 2021 was the highest they have ever drafted.
– Could be reworded to be better I think. Something like, "The highest the Kraken have ever drafted was in 2021, when they had the second overall pick." or "The Kraken have never selected higher than in 2021, when they had the second overall pick."- Don't switch between using "second" in the lead and then using "1st-round pick" at the end. Be consistent, at least in prose, with the usage of words.
- Ref 5 missing publisher date
- Date format is inconsistent in sources
- Usage of publishers not consistent in refs (Ref 1 and 2 use "National Hockey League" while ref 3 uses "NHL.com")
- Inconsistent wikilinking of publishers, please wikilink publishers for consistency
- Ref 4 needs to be marked as a subscription being required
- The source uses combines the ties plus overtime losses columns. Is there a reason you've separate them out? It doesn't look like there's any sources linked that show these being counted separately.
- Per MOS:NOTSEEALSO, the see also section should not be linking to their first draft.
That's what I've got for now, though I think on a re-pass over I'll probably find more. Please ping me when you respond. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:49, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I have made the changes. XR228 (talk) 00:51, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- You missed a few, but this is the feedback I have:
- Ref 4 – add
|subscription=required
- The source used combines the ties plus overtime losses columns. Is there a reason you've separate them out? It doesn't look like there's any sources linked that show these being counted separately.
- Paragraph two could be improved, there's information that could be useful, such as the fact that, based on the source, it doesn't seem as simple as just being 18 to be drafted. There's also more info I'm sure those unfamiliar with hockey could find useful.
- The images need alt text added for accessibility
...Ryker Evans, Ryan Winterton, and 2022 fourth overall pick Shane Wright.
– Remove the part about his pick. It's not specified for others so it's not necessary for Shane Wright.- General ref 2 – Add <code>|website=[[Hockey-Reference.com]]</code>, publisher can stay since they're the parent company
- The table currently has a table title of "caption text"
- Second image uses "first" and "4th", switch it to "fourth" for consistency.
- This page is pretty light on SIGCOV, with only 7 sources, three of which are from the NHL and two of which are from sports databases. This could be improved upon.
- Use "background-color" instead of just "background" for the column headers. If you do not do so, the sorting icon is missing, which makes the page below what we expect for accessibility. You also have an extra exclamation point in the column text, just before "scope", that should be removed.
- If this is meant to be THE entirety of the team's picks, why are the picks from the 2021 NHL expansion draft not included?
- Ref 4 – add
- That's what I've got for now. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:35, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I have made the changes. The 2021 expansion draft was selecting players from 30 of the already existing teams, so it isn't the same as an entry draft. XR228 (talk) 02:30, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @XR228: There's a number of points you have failed to address, some of which this is the third time I'm mentioning:
- Ref 4 – For the third time, add
|subscription=required
to the reference, as a subscription is required to access the source - The source used combines the ties plus overtime losses columns. Is there a reason you've separate them out? It doesn't look like there's any sources linked that show these being counted separately. Needs to be called out or explained in some way.

- Further feedback:
- General ref 1 – Change from publisher =
|publisher=The Internet Hockey Database
to|website=HockeyDB
, based on the fact the Wiki page is called that - Draft picks are draft picks. I don't see a reason not to include other players that were drafted by this team.
- Add the

- Sorry about that. I've made the changes. Also, there is a difference between an ENTRY draft and an EXPANSION draft. The FL List of Atlanta Thrashers draft picks does not have any selections from Atlanta's expansion draft. XR228 (talk) 04:11, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @XR228: I understand there's a difference between entry and expansion drafts. I'm heavily involved with NFL articles, particularly draft list promotions, and we have had expansion drafts as well. @The Kip: has discussed the issue of the expansion draft with me at his nomination for the Vegas Golden Knights. I don't love the exclusion of it, and I genuinely believe it's relevant, but I'm willing to let it slide and not use that as a reason to oppose promotion of these lists.
Prior to the 2005–06 season, the NHL instituted a penalty shootout for regular season games that remained tied after a five-minute overtime period, which prevented ties
– Close, but might be a bit too wordy. What about something like "As of the 2005–06 season, the NHL implemented new tiebreaker procedures, making ties no longer possible."?- "Entry Drafts" should be lowercased.
- Row scopes need to be declared with an exclamation point (
! scope="row"
) to be accessible.| scope="row"
is not acceptable for accessibility reasons.

- You missed a few, but this is the feedback I have:
MrLinkinPark333 (verification and copyvio check)
- Table:
- Individual references for Beniers, Evans, Winterton and Wright are needed to show their entire NHL career was with the Kraken.
- Janicke (2021) was Left Winger.
- Jackson (2022) was Centre.
- Needs a reference to show the nationality of all of the players.
- Lead:
- The entire first paragraph is uncited. All of the content should be cited like at List of Atlanta Thrashers draft picks.
- "Kraken have participated in three drafts and selected 28 players." -> four drafts and selected 36 players.
- "The NHL entry draft is held each June" - not mentioned at the NHL guidelines.
- "exceptions being players...age 18, 19, or 20." - this long sentence copies and closely paraphrases the four points from NHL operations. This quoted part should all be removed.
- "order determined by the number of points earned by each team" - this part should be reworded a bit to meet WP:LIMITED to avoid similar wording at Entry Draft Order points at NHL operations.
- "weighted lottery for the 16 non-playoff teams" - new updated source needed as the 2013 NHL Draft lottery source has 14 teams, not 16.
- "four of the Kraken's draft picks have gone on to play with the Kraken" - Condor 2024 doesn't mention Shane Wright. Need an extra citation here.
- "The team with the fewest points has the best chance of winning the lottery," - New source needed as the NHL operations guidelines don't mention a lottery.

- Hello. There's a few leftover points to go through:
- The entire first paragraph in the lead needs citations.
- order determined by the number of points earned by each team" - needs rewording to avoid close paraphrasing of NHL Operations.
- allowing the winner to move up to the first overall pick" - This isn't 100% correct. Only the top 11 teams can win the #1 pick (#1 can't move up anymore, #2-#11 can move up 10 spots to #1) per NHL.
- Table references for Benier, Evans, Winerton and Wright neeeded to show they only played with the Kraken. Otherwise, the shades and key can be removed

- @MrLinkinPark333, I have made the changes. XR228 (talk) 14:00, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- "Kraken compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference and began play during the league's 2021–22 season," - Not verified by NHL 2018 as the team was not named yet, that they competed in the Western Conference/Pacific Division nor their first season was in 2021. An overall source about the Kraken's playing history and division/conference can work here.
- making them the second newest team in the NHL" - The 2018 NHL source says they were scheduled to debut in 2021, while the 2024 NHL source does not mention Seattle was the 2nd newest. A different source is needed that shows the 2 newest teams are Seattle (2021) and Utah (scheduled 2024).
- "Since their creation, the Kraken have participated in four drafts and selected 36 players" - Thank you for rewriting. This now needs a source.
- "any of the top 11 teams to move up to the first overall pick" -> " any of the top 11 teams to win the first overall pick" (since the #1 team can't move up anymore)

If you've seen any of the earlier Snooker world rankings articles and wondered how they could make the system even more complicated and unfair, the answers lie within. Ranking points, comparison of performances in the most recent year, merit points, "A" points and frames won are all in the mix. Steve Davis topped the list once again, by a considerable margin. As always, extracts from relevant sources are available on request to reviewers. All improvement suggestions are welcome. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 21:54, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first time nominating FL, and I hope this meets all the criteria of FL. One reason I am nominating this for the featured list is because it is a complete list of Johnson solids, along with the surface area and volume, as well as the symmetry. As for the background for someone who does not comprehend mathematics, especially in geometry, the Johnson solids were in the list proposed by Norman Johnson, and he conjectured that there were no other solids, after which was proved by Victor Zalgaller. I think I can give three examples for the exhibition:
There are actually 92 of them, but I would not exhibit them a lot here. I hope this could be the next FL of WP:WPM, and it could be the first FL of sister WikiProject, WP:3TOPE.

You've wikilinked Cambridge University Press but none of the others; it would be good if you could either delink Cambridge University Press or wikilink John Wiley & Sons, Springer, Academic Press, American Mathematical Society and Dover Publications.

- Some of the authors have their full first name and some only have their initial; I believe this can be done in one way or the other but it has to be consistent.

- Nice one, I'll have a full read-through later. In the meantime, I've added some urls/other missing author links myself. Sgubaldo (talk) 16:00, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've gone through and made some copyedits. Feel free to revert an edit you're not happy with it.
- Here are some more commments:
- The passage
- These solids may be used to construct another polyhedron with the same properties, a process known as augmentation; attaching a prism or antiprism to those is known as elongation or gyroelongation respectively. Some others are constructed by diminishment, the removal of those from the component of polyhedra, or by snubification, a construction by cutting loose the edges, lifting the faces and rotate in certain angle, after which adding the equilateral triangles between them.
- is a bit confusing to read because I'm not sure what 'those' is referring to. I'm reading it as you attach the prism/antiprism to any of the first six Johnson solids, but it's not very clear.
- Is defining area and volume necessary? I'm specifically taking about the sentences "An area is a two-dimensional measurement calculated by the product of length and width, and the surface area is the overall area of all faces of polyhedra that is measured by summing all of them. A volume is a measurement of the region in three-dimensional space." I understand you have to consider WP:TECHNICAL but perhaps you could just include how the volume and surface area are calculated for a polyhedron and remove the definitions themselves.
- Is the sentence "one case that preserves the symmetry by one full rotation and one reflection horizontal plane is of order 2, or simply denoted as " also necessary? You already explain the group and this is just one example
- The passage
- Sgubaldo (talk) 17:17, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Re "defining area and volume necessary": This is on purpose to make readers (for non-mathematicians, students, or anyone who is interested in it) recap the meaning of area and volume. If it does not exist, readers may search them on the previous wikilinked. I am aware that one problem here is our articles is somewhat technical, making readers even much more confused. Take an example of Surface area, stating that "a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies". This is not only to help readers to understand the definition, but rather to give the meaning of the object specifically. Here, I wrote the surface area of a polyhedron specifically as the total area of all polygona faces. So to put it plain, this is intended to summarize them specifically about the polyhedron's characteristics. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 05:57, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- My concern was more whether the sentences "An area is a two-dimensional measurement calculated by the product of length and width" and "A volume is a measurement of the region in three-dimensional space." were necessary, but if you think they are per WP:TECHNICAL, then I'm fine with their inclusion. Sgubaldo (talk) 10:41, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dedhert.Jr Anyways, final comment on this part: "The volume of a polyhedron is determined by involving its base and height (as in pyramids and prisms), slicing it off into pieces after which summing them up...." – I'm slightly unsure as to what 'involving its base and height' means here. Could you clarify? Sgubaldo (talk) 10:45, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It is just like saying that volume of a prism and pyramid is the product of height and its base, with an exception that pyramid is one-third of it. The inside bracket is meant to show the merely examples. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 00:33, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dedhert.Jr, could you rewrite the sentence a little to clarify that? I think it's still hard to understand in its current state. Sgubaldo (talk) 17:25, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- What I'm trying to say that volume of a polyhedron can be calculated in different way. Take examples as in the prism and the pyramid. The volume of a prism is the product of base and height . The volume of a pyramid is one-third of the product of base and height . From all of these examples, their calculation only involves the base and height . Dedhert.Jr (talk) 08:32, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dedhert.Jr. Thank you, I understand now; these will be my final comments then, after which I can support.
- What do you think about tweaking the relevant part of the sentence mentioned above to something like: "The volume of a polyhedron may be ascertained in different ways: either by decomposing it into smaller pieces, such as pyramids and prisms, calculating the volume of each component, and then computing their sum, or......"
- When you say "meaning their construction does not involve both Archimedean and Platonic solids", is that intending that it doesn't involve both Archimedean and Platonic solids at the same time or that it involves neither of the two. If it's the former, then it's fine. If it's the latter, I think it should be changed to "meaning their construction does not involve neither Archimedean nor Platonic solids"

- Re "tweaking": What? This means something different. My interpretation is that you pointed the polyhedrons such as pyramids and prisms can be defined their volume by decomposing it into smaller pieces.
- What I meant about those facts is that every polyhedron's volume is different to finding them. One example that I already explained is involving the produvt of base and height. However, not all the volume of polyhedrons can be done in that way. We can see an example of Triaugmented triangular prism in which constructed from a triangular prism by attaching three equilateral square pyramids onto its square faces. To find its volume, we need to slice it off into a triangular prism and three equilateral square pyramids again. Finding their volume, and then add up the volume again, and the volume of a triaugmanted triangular prism is total of those. But this method is not working for sphenomegacorona, and the alternative way is by using root of polynomial, as described in OEIS. That is what I meant also in the previous copyedit.

- Re "elementar": The definition by not involving Platonic and Archimedean solids was copyedited from the previous meaning in several articles of Johnson solids. However, Cromwell and Johnson gives different meaning, so I'm going to copyedited the rest of them. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 01:44, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Sgubaldo Update. This was already discussed after I changing the definition; you can see my talk page. Feel free to ask. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 11:10, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I feel really silly, I was misreading the sentence about finding the volume and couldn't see there were three different methods. The changes to the definition look good. There were a couple of minor prose issues I had, but to not enter a WP:FIXLOOP, I tried making the changes myself. Please do check and revert if you disagree with anything.

- @Dedhert.Jr. Thank you, I understand now; these will be my final comments then, after which I can support.
- What I'm trying to say that volume of a polyhedron can be calculated in different way. Take examples as in the prism and the pyramid. The volume of a prism is the product of base and height . The volume of a pyramid is one-third of the product of base and height . From all of these examples, their calculation only involves the base and height . Dedhert.Jr (talk) 08:32, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dedhert.Jr, could you rewrite the sentence a little to clarify that? I think it's still hard to understand in its current state. Sgubaldo (talk) 17:25, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It is just like saying that volume of a prism and pyramid is the product of height and its base, with an exception that pyramid is one-third of it. The inside bracket is meant to show the merely examples. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 00:33, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dedhert.Jr Anyways, final comment on this part: "The volume of a polyhedron is determined by involving its base and height (as in pyramids and prisms), slicing it off into pieces after which summing them up...." – I'm slightly unsure as to what 'involving its base and height' means here. Could you clarify? Sgubaldo (talk) 10:45, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- My concern was more whether the sentences "An area is a two-dimensional measurement calculated by the product of length and width" and "A volume is a measurement of the region in three-dimensional space." were necessary, but if you think they are per WP:TECHNICAL, then I'm fine with their inclusion.

- I'm not an expert either. What I was trying to say was that you explain the symmetry group with the sentence "The symmetry group of order preserves the symmetry by rotation around the axis of symmetry and reflection on horizontal plane", but then also go into specific detail about , which seems to be a specific case of .

- Re "these solids". It means that the first six Johnson solids can be used to construct more new Johnson solids by attaching the uniform polyhedrons (as it is included in the article), and those constructions are already mentioned above, with some exceptions that snubification does not need them basically. Some of the Johnson solids cannot be constructed without them. I think I will fix this one, but I have to be careful my writing. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 06:11, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for clarifying. I've made some minor edits here too and I'm happy with this part now. Sgubaldo (talk) 09:43, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Re "defining area and volume necessary": This is on purpose to make readers (for non-mathematicians, students, or anyone who is interested in it) recap the meaning of area and volume. If it does not exist, readers may search them on the previous wikilinked. I am aware that one problem here is our articles is somewhat technical, making readers even much more confused. Take an example of Surface area, stating that "a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies". This is not only to help readers to understand the definition, but rather to give the meaning of the object specifically. Here, I wrote the surface area of a polyhedron specifically as the total area of all polygona faces. So to put it plain, this is intended to summarize them specifically about the polyhedron's characteristics. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 05:57, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding
!scope=col
to each header cell, e.g.! Solid name
becomes!scope=col | Solid name
. If the cell spans multiple columns with a colspan, then use!scope=colgroup
instead. - Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding

- "The points, lines, and polygons of a polyhedron are referred to as its vertices, edges, and faces[,] respectively" <- add in comma (shown in brackets)
- "they do not share the same plane, and do not "lie flat"." <- I think the comma here can be removed
- "the faces are regular and they are vertex-transitivity" <- from my non-expert understanding/reading of this sentence, I'm guessing it probably should be reworded as "the faces are regular and the vertices have vertex-transitivity"
- "they are the Platonic solids and Archimedean solids, as well as prisms and antiprisms" <- the way I read it, it sounds like these are examples/types of uniform polyhedra right? If that is the case, I think a better way to word this sentence would be "A uniform polyhedron is a polyhedron in which the faces are regular and have vertex-transitivity; examples include Platonic and Archimedean solids as well as prisms and antiprisms."
- Since the nationality of Zalgaller is mentioned, for consistency, "after mathematician Norman Johnson (1930–2017)" should be reworded as "after American mathematician Norman Johnson (1930–2017)"
- "create two small convex polyhedrons" <- shouldn't it be "create two small convex polyhedra" since its plural?
- "The Johnson solids satisfying this criteria are the first six—equilateral square pyramid, pentagonal pyramid, triangular cupola, square cupola, pentagonal cupola, and pentagonal rotunda—as well as the tridiminished icosahedron, parabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron, tridiminished rhombicosidodecahedron, snub disphenoid, snub square antiprism, sphenocorona, sphenomegacorona, hebesphenomegacorona, disphenocingulum, bilunabirotunda, and triangular hebesphenorotunda." <- this should probably be divided up into at least a few sentences (e.g. keep it as "The Johnson solids satisfying this criteria are the first six—equilateral square pyramid, pentagonal pyramid, triangular cupola, square cupola, pentagonal cupola, and pentagonal rotunda" and then have the next sentence saying something like "The criteria is also satisfied by eleven other Johnson solids, specifically the tridiminished icosahedron, parabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron, tridiminished rhombicosidodecahedron, snub disphenoid, snub square antiprism, sphenocorona, sphenomegacorona, hebesphenomegacorona, disphenocingulum, bilunabirotunda, and triangular hebesphenorotunda." (would be great to divide this second sentence more but I'm not sure what the best way to do that would be (maybe group them up by their Johnson numbers (e.g. "satisfied by eleven other Johnson solids, with [insert name] and [insert name] in the Johnson number range 60 to 70, [insert name], [insert name], and [insert name] in the Johnson number range 70 to 80, ..." (I didn't actually check the numbers for how many elementary polyhedra there are in each Johnson number range so don't copy my sample verbatim)
- also, just a note, the reason I think some additional, probably not too helpful, text should be added to the above sentence is due to MOS:SEAOFBLUE
- "in various processes" <- this might be completely wrong but would "through various mathematical procedures" be a better way to phrase this?
- "Augmentation involves attaching them onto one or more faces of polyhedra" <- for clarity, recommend replacing "them" with "the Johnson solids"
- "prism or antiprism respectively" -> "prism or antiprism[,] respectively" (add in comma)
- "may be composed in a group, alongside the number of elements, known as the order" <- not sure if this is necessary/beneficial but would it be a good idea to rewrite this as: "may be composed in a group, alongside the group's number of elements, known as the order"
- "In two-dimensional space, these transformations include rotating around the center of a polygon and reflecting an object around the perpendicular bisector of a polygon." <- also not sure if this is needed but might help to clarify whether the rotation and reflection are based on same polygon or they can be different polygons
- "known as the axis of symmetry, and reflection relative to perpendicular planes passing through the bisector of a base" -> "known as the axis of symmetry, and the reflection relative to perpendicular planes passing through the bisector of a base" (add "the")
- Consider adding a See also section with links to similar lists/articles (maybe Table of polyhedron dihedral angles?)
Well that's everything I have! The table looks perfect and the article is just overall really well done! Thanks for bringing this to FL Dedhert.Jr and excited to see this get promoted! :) Dan the Animator 21:16, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dantheanimator I have accomplished most of your comments, but not of them.
- Re "in various process": to be honest, what I meant that is those Johnson solids can be constructed by literally attaching them. I think there is no guidance procedure of how to construct by attaching mathematically unless it describes the construction with Cartesian coordinates.
- Re "in two-dimensional space": it was intended to describe the cyclic group and dihedral group in two-dimensional space, to understand the analogy symmetry in three-dimensional space.
- Re "See also": I don't mind that, but I'm aware that the table has already had many problems if I looked at it. Will think about it later.

Second and final stop at FLC for a good topic I'm working towards. Still waiting on quite a few GA reviews before I can get there (plus two articles I still need to do some expansion on), so I thought I'd get this FLC going in the meantime. This is the episodes page for a popular UK television series. It has set quite a few records in terms of viewership so there were enough sources to write a pretty engaging lead so I spent a few hours tonight expanding it. I look forward and thank you all in advance for any reviews! :) TheDoctorWho (talk) 07:07, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- "directed towards BBC Two[3] which" - I would recommend a comma after Two
- "in over ten years[12] leading" - also a comma after years
- "The series has been nominated for several awards[29] also gaining" - comma after awards
- "Additionally, Craig Parkinson,[45] Jessica Raine,[46] Jason Watkins,[47] and Anna Maxwell Martin[48] also star" - I don't think you need to say both "additionally" and "also". Is there a way to reword this?
- "special mini-episode written by the Dawson Brothers" - our article says the group is called Dawson Bros.

The virtual pantomime has been written by the Dawson Brothers, the comedy writers behind this year’s hilarious Line Of Duty Sport Relief Special [...]
") The mini-episode didn't actually have any credits, which is what we list ours from most of the time.

- Series overview table: The "Originally aired" cell should have scope as colgroup, not col.
- Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. All the tables are missing captions.
- * Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. A few of the header cells in the "Viewing figures" table are missing scopes.
- That's all I got. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:45, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've added captions to the series overview and episode tables.
- As for all the scopes, if I'm not mistaken, this would be a far larger issue that I need to raise at the template talk pages? It's not something I can fix at this page specifically. Template:Series overview for example is used on over 8,000 pages, at least 55 of these are featured lists. Some of which, just passed FLC this year. I'd be willing to raise the issue on the template talk pages given that I'm not a template editor (and because it uses LUA, so I wouldn't be able to fix it myself if I were), and I'm not sure how soon it can be addressed, but I just wanted to mention that it is not something that is directly within the scope of my control on this list.

- "Series three surpassed viewership of the first series" -> "Series three surpassed [the] viewership of the first series" (add "the")
- "Around this time, a restructuring of BBC television networks occurred causing BBC One and BBC Two to now be controlled by the same person." is "this time" referring to around the commissioning of the new series in April? (would help to specify for clarity imo) who's the "same person" who gained control of both BBCs? (would be helpful to name them, especially if they have a wikipage); also would recommend rewording the sentence in general to something like "Around the time of the commissioning of the new series, a restructuring of BBC television networks occurred, causing ownership over BBC One and BBC Two to become consolidated under [businessman/insert profession name] [insert person's name]."
- "The decision was made to promote" -> for better flow imo: "Following these changes, the decision was made to promote"
- The article for Sport Relief has it italicized but here its left in normal text. Would recommend italicizing it in all instances if that's how it should be
- "The series has been nominated for several awards, also gaining a cult following and becoming the subject of critical acclaim" -> one way it can be reworded: "The series has since been the subject of critical acclaim, receiving nominations for several awards and gaining a large cult following"
- "as AC-12 officers Steve Arnott and Kate Fleming" -> "as AC-12 officers Steve Arnott and Kate Fleming[, respectively]"

- Optional: For the Line of Duty : UK viewers per episode (millions) table near the bottom, add a note/footnote/something briefly indicating what "–" means (I think its fine as-is tbh but I thought it was kinda helpful having a note about it in another FL I looked over recently)
- For ref #73, I'm getting a: Cite error: The named reference Sport Relief Dates was invoked but never defined (see the help page).
- If it's possible, I recommend trying to consolidate refs #31-34 (next to "subject of critical acclaim") into one reference similar to how ref #55 is a "multi ref" reference; check out Mission: Impossible – Fallout for lots of good examples of how this is done using the note template (see the notes section in that article)
That's everything I got! Awesome work TheDoctorWho (talk)!! :) Dan the Animator 07:44, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I've added a reference for the air date columns. I also added a border for the image in the article. The directors are credited within the episodes via on-screen credits, so I believe that this would semi-fall under the same guidelines as MOS:PLOTSOURCE (in that the information is sourced to the work itself). I can probably still put together for sources for it if it's absolutely necessary to gain your support. I do also question how well that link would serve readers in a see also section. In the parent article possibly, but from the list of episode page it doesn't quite feel as necessary. Similar to the last point though, I'd also compromise and add it if necessary for a support !vote. TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:55, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks and don't worry about it! I think the changes help but its perfectly fine not having the ref for the credits column! For see also, its completely optional so up to you if you want to add it! I like to suggest it though since most articles usually have other articles that aren't linked in the body but would be interesting for readers (also feel free to choose any relevant articles... definitely doesn't have to be List of police television dramas which I found through a quick browse in the categories). Please ping if I can help with anything and great work Gallifreyan! ;) Dan the Animator 07:51, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dantheanimator: I've addressed everything you left in your full review, bar the optional one. The "–" denotes that an episode with that number doesn't exist within the series (some series have more episodes than others). I started to add a note attempting to explain that, but it seemed to get confusing quickly when I say that episodes don't "exist" when they were never planned to be created in the first place. Thank you so much for the review! TheDoctorWho (talk) 08:24, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- MPGuy2824
- "since July, 2016" remove the comma.
- Does Korea use the mdy system of writing dates?
- Their singles "Knock Knock", "Signal" and "Likey" ranked number one for three weeks each and achieved
atriple crowns in 2017, while "Heart Shaker" went on to achieve a triple crown the following year. - You can remove the row stating that '"—" denotes an episode did not air that week.' since this info appears in the 'key' table. Alternatively, you can make sure that it always sorts at the bottom.
- 'Prior to her official debut, Minseo took her first award win for "Yes".' This is begging for more explanation.
- That's all I got. Please ping me here after you are done. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:41, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 all done. Majority of Korea related articles use mdy format. From what I can tell this seems to be the accepted format. For Minseo, there is a detailed explanation at Minseo_(singer)#2015–2017:_Pre-debut:_Superstar_K_7,_"Monthly_Yoon_Jong-shin" (last paragraph). It is also mentioned in the source. -- EN-Jungwon 16:35, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I can't find anything specific in the MOS for dates in Korea-related articles. The date formatting seems consistent throughout the article, so ok.
- Minseo's pre-debut debut: If you can manage to put the explanation in a few words and incorporate it in that the sentence, it would be great. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:34, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: Korea uses YMD (e.g. 2024년 6월 6일 -> 2024 June 6). There is no established preference in the English language in Korea for MDY or DMY, although you'll often see MDY because Korea leans closer to the American side of the Anglosphere.
- My understanding is that we follow MOS:DATERET for articles without strong MOS:DATETIES (e.g. if the article is about UK–Korea ties then maybe DMY is more appropriate?). Whichever style the primary contributer to the article uses, we follow. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 22:57, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824 I couldn't think of a good way to put an explanation there so I removed the mention of Minseo's pre-debut. I don't think it's that relevant to this list so it shouldn't become a big issue. Thanks for the review and sorry for taking so long to reply. -- EN-Jungwon 18:55, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Support promotion. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:09, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @MPGuy2824, in the Music Bank 2023 FLC you suggested
that the date is the unique cell of every row and should be made into the header cell, instead of the episode number
. I was thinking about it and wondered if something like this would be acceptable to make the column sort correctly. -- EN-Jungwon 10:32, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]- IMO somebody looking at the wikicode would be able to understand why those particular numbers are used. So, yes, your linked diff would be acceptable. Visually, (and for screen readers) the emdashes being the header cell in rows still seems weird to me. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:14, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- Checking the FLC criteria:
- 1. I did some minor copyediting; feel free to revert. I checked sorting on all sortable nonnumeric columns and sampled the links in the table.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
- 3b. The UPSD tool isn't indicating any significant problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
- 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, and it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find).
- 4. It is navigable.
- 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
- 6. It is stable.
- Since all the sources are in Korean, which I can't read, I'll have to wait for a source review, but I'm expecting to support at that point. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 20:58, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
Unusual and very interesting topic for an article. Here are my comments:
- "Over the years, several songs and albums released by" - first three words are a bit vague. Maybe "Since the 1970s".....?
- "The first documented instance are the works of nai player Gheorghe Zamfir." - I doubt that there any instances which are not documented, so I would change this to "The first Romanian artist to chart in such markets was the nai player Gheorghe Zamfir."
- "soprano opera singer Angela Gheorghiu started charting multiple albums" => "soprano opera singer Angela Gheorghiu charted multiple albums"
- "and in a few other European countries" => "and in European countries"
- "both of which stand as two of the " => "which stand as two of the "
- ""Musica" (2011) by group Fly Project " => ""Musica" (2011) by the group Fly Project "
- "as well as "I Need Your Love" " => "and "I Need Your Love" "
- Notes: "This article lists all music releases, where there is at least one Romanian artist or act credited among the lead or featured artist(s)." => "This article lists all charting releases, where there is at least one Romanian artist or act credited among the lead or featured artist(s)."
- "has annualy published" => "has annually published"

- This is fairly nitpick-y, but I do not think "several" in this part, (several songs and albums released by), is needed. It comes across more as a filler word in this context and in my opinion, it does not add that much for the reader.
- Removed
- I would remove the links for studio albums and singles as I believe that they are examples of overlinking. The rest of the links look good to me so these are the only two that I would unlink as most readers would be familiar with both of these concepts.
- Removed
- I am uncertain about the wording for this part, (the only documented Romanian song to chart in Brazil). The "documented" part makes it seem like there are gaps in information about Brazil's music charts and that there may be other Romanian songs that could have appeared on the Brazilian, but they are just not "documented". Is that the intended meaning? Would anything be lost or changed by removing "documented" from this part?
- "Documented" is needed here since Brazil is not a country that has an easily searchable chart archive. "Stereo Love" is the only song we can prove charted there, but my personal opinion is that at least the other big international hit "Mr. Saxobeat" charted there too (it's just we don't have the archives).
I am glad to see you back on Wikipedia! Great work with this list. This is an interesting topic, and I do not think that I have seen a similar type of list in the FLC space (although I have not been particularly active in the FLC process or with FLs or lists in general for some time now). I only have three comments, and they are rather nitpick-y. Once everything has been addressed, I will be more than happy to support this list for promotion. Hopefully, this review will encourage others to take a look at this FLC. Have a great rest of your day and/or night (whichever it is when you are reading this lol).

Some comments & thoughts
- There's a dynamic list template at the top of the article. Per #6 Stability at WP:FLCR, not sure if this is allowed but worth pointing out
- I have seen other dynamic lists being promoted to FLC status, including my own List of certified albums in Romania. In my opinion, the status of being a dynamic list doesn't affect the stability. Even if this list is probably not complete (since I occasionally add entries I find out about), I would say the "content does not change significantly from day to day" since it already covers the majority of works that have charted.
- "were certified multiple times platinum by Music Canada" -> should this be: "were certified platinum multiple times by Music Canada"?
- This is how you refer to music recording certifications. For example, you would also say "It was certified two times/double platinum" rather than "It was certified platinum twice".
- "in selected regions" -> maybe use different word (maybe "in a number of regions"?)
- I ended up using "some"; "in a number of regions" implies it was successful in several regions, which is not the case.
- For reference #47: "Dance Club Songs". Billboard. 3 October 2015. Archived from the original on 21 April 2022. Retrieved 4 July 2024.(subscription required), there's a parameter in the
{{cite web}}
template for source access level so a separate subscription template shouldn't have to be used
- Done
- Apply the above for any other refs if there are any other and in general go through the refs to make sure everything's consistently formatted, no unused params, etc. (I'm not too familiar with the way these refs are done so the final say with that's probably best left for the source reviewer
- Unused parameters give off a warning when you try to edit the article; in this case, no warning appears, so this indicates there are no parameter problems. There was one more ref with a subscription template, which I have fixed.
- Completely optional but I think it'd be good to add in the Inter-language links (
{{ILL}}s
) for the album and song titles where there isn't an English wikipage for the album/song already
- Done
- "She would go on to have two more top ten hits in Italy around the same time as group Akcent experienced moderate success in some European countries with their single "Kylie" (2005)." -> "She went on to have two more top ten hits in Italy at around the same time as the group Akcent" (personally, I also think the tone here might be slightly too informal but I'll leave it to others to decide on that)
- Done
- "would establish itself as part of the international mainstream over the course of the next few years" -> "established itself as part of the..."
- Done
- Go through lead and make sure that it uses the past tense when talking about the past (e.g. take out "would go on to")
- Done. No other instance found.
- "which stand as two of the most" -> maybe just say "which are two of the most"
- Done
- "Furthermore, Inna would go on to score two top ten hits" -> "Inna also scored two top ten hits" ("furthermore" isn't really necessary and doesn't fit with the tone imo)
- Done
- "The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) has annually [...] throughout the years." and "West Germany until 1990" should have in-line refs like the rest of the notes
- I don't think references are needed here. In the first note, I link to the List of largest recorded music markets, in which all the IFPI reports that have been published yet are sourced. In the second note, I link to West Germany, which sources the fact that Germany was "West Germany" until 1990.
- Consider adding a See also section with links to List of Romanian artists and/or other similar articles/lists
- Done
Well that's everything I have. Interesting list and many thanks for nominating it! :) Ping me on reply if I'm needed. Cheers, Dan the Animator 00:27, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dantheanimator: Hi there Dan. First of all, many thanks for spending time reviewing my nominee. I have answered all your comments. Let me know what you think. Greets, Cartoon network freak (talk) 23:02, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Cartoon network freak!!! :) Everything looks good except for the references on the IFPI & West Germany notes, which only needs a ref that verifies "annually published the ten largest recorded music markets...[since] 1996" and a ref that verifies West Germany became Germany in 1990.
- In general, while it's true that many readers would just click on the links if they wanted to verify the info, I think in the spirit of WP:V, it's always better to make it as easy as possible for a reader to verify non-obvious info (especially specific details like years which most people don't know/remember), which is easiest when that source is linked in a footnote next to the claim and which is why a lot of FA and FL articles will duplicate refs throughout the article to backup different info and data (so a reader doesn't have to sift through to figure out which ref is backing up which source).
- Also, its best imo to assume the average reader doesn't know any specific details like years or data. Really recommend taking a look at WP:ORIENT which although a wiki essay, does a much better job than me explaining why adding footnotes for these things is a good idea. Once the refs are added, I'll add my support for promoting this to FL. Cheers, Dan the Animator 01:06, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dantheanimator: Thank you again for your further comments. I have in the first case linked to the 1996 and 2024 IFPI reports, while in the second case, I have linked to the 1990 treaty that united West and East Germany to what is now Germany.

Comments
- "Each state elects two senators to serve for six years, and varying members of the House" - obviously each state elects varying members, they don't all elect the same ones. I think what you mean is "Each state elects two senators to serve for six years, and varying numbers of members of the House"
- "The current dean, or longest serving member, of the Arizona delegation is" => "The current dean, or longest serving member, of the Arizona delegation, is"
- "of its two senators, one Democrat and one independent, and its nine representatives: 6 Republicans and 3 Democrats." - odd that you write all the numbers as words and then suddenly switch to digits at the end......
- "Of those, Martha McSally and Kyrsten Sinema have been the first and only women" - I think "the only women" would suffice, as if they are the only ones than by definition they were also the first
- "such that each election, around one-third of the seats in the Senate are up for election" => "such that at each election around one-third of the seats in the Senate are up for election"
- "Following 1940 census" => "Following the 1940 census"
- "Following 1960 census" => "Following the 1960 census" (and so on for all the others)
- That's what I got :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:40, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi! Thanks for your feedback! I've done everything except for the second bullet point. Wouldn't "or longest serving member" be a parenthetical clause; thus removing it leaves "The current dean of the Arizona delegation is" vs. "The current dean of the Arizona delegation, is"? I feel like the first option makes more grammatical sense. Let me know if I'm missing something or if there's more. Thanks again for reviewing! Staraction (talk | contribs) 04:10, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, ignore that one, I don't know what I was thinking there. One thing I didn't pick up on before, though: "Seven women have served Arizona in the House, including Kyrsten Sinema and Martha McSally, who are the only women who have served Arizona in the Senate" - doesn't that sentence contradict itself? Seven women have served in the House, including two who served in the Senate? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:36, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It was a little bit weird to phrase and I don't think it came out properly. Sinema and McSally both served in the House prior to serving in the Senate, and they are the only women to have ever served in the Senate. Is there a better way to phrase that? Thanks!

- "The first woman to serve Arizona in the Senate was Isabella Greenway." - House of Representatives, not Senate.
- the current senator table is missing colscopes. Also its first header needs to be made into a table caption
- In the full senate table, you don't need to bold the Congress since that is a header cell in every row. This should be checked for the other tables as well.
- There is also no need of setting the height. The height anyway expands to more than 2em when there is less space. This probably holds true for other tables as well. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:49, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @MPGuy2824 @Staraction Sorry, I reverted these edits because the table wasn't displaying terms right.

Some suggestions...
- "the Cook Partisan Voting Index, a determination of how strongly partisan a state is" -> recommend replacing "determination" with "measure"
- "14 people have served as a U.S. Senator from Arizona." -> Could expand this to say "Since its first congressional delegation in 1913, 14 people have served as a U.S. Senator for Arizona" (make sure to also copy the citation from the lead for the 1913 claim)
- "rotating through each class such that [in] each election[,] around one-third of the seats in the Senate are up for election" <- add in the stuff in the brackets
- "One member of the House of Representatives is sent from each district via a popular vote." -> this should be reworded (ex: "Each district uses a popular vote to elect a member of Arizona's delegation in the House of Representatives.")
- "Arizona has had nine congressional districts since districts were redrawn in 2013 as a result of the 2010 United States Census." -> this should be reworded (ex: "Since its districts were redrawn in 2013 according to the results of the 2010 census, Arizona has had nine congressional districts")
- "For six years, the seats were elected at-large statewide on a general ticket." <- doesn't at-large and statewide mean the same thing? (recommend taking out at-large if possible or rewording for concision)
- 1912–1943: 1 seat, 1943–1963: 2 seats, 1963–1973: 3 seats, 1973–1983: 4 seats, 1983–1993: 5 seats, 1993–2003: 6 seats, 2003–2013: 8 seats, & 2013–present: 9 seats <- make sure all the prose-text in those subsections have in-line references
- All the tables under the United States House of Representatives section are missing refs and should have some sort of ref/citation added either in the column/row headers or as a table footnote
- For the 2022 U.S. representatives from Arizona table, the "Incumbent since" column should have a ref in the header if possible (like CPVI (2022) header next to it already does)
- "Arizona's current congressional delegation in the 118th Congress consists of its two senators, one Democrat and one independent, and its nine representatives, six Republicans and three Democrats." should also have an in-line ref
- "Senator Kyl was appointed by governor Doug Ducey to fill the seat of John McCain, who died in office." -> recommend rewording to "Senator Kyl was appointed by governor Doug Ducey to fill the seat of John McCain after McCain's death in office."
- Not completely sure whether this is required per MOS:DTAB but I'd recommend adding
|+{{sronly|}}
for each of the tables (this template is used by screenreaders as a sort of title/caption for the table to my knowledge) - Just a thought but I feel like this sort of list would benefit from a brief infobox where the current map & caption are kept and additional basic info (e.g. year of first delegation, current number of districts (as of which census), numerical party control/distribution of the delegation, dean of the delegation, etc.)
I'm not particularly familiar with these types of lists so not sure what's considered standard or not but I'd strongly recommend adding at least some refs to the tables imo. Otherwise, this is a great list for a great state! :) Many thanks Staraction for nominating this! Please ping on reply if needed. Cheers, Dan the Animator 22:48, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Did an overhaul of the article a few days ago and I think it's ready for the review process. The Ukrainian language wiki version of the list already has selected list status (which is their equivalent of FL) so don't see why this can't be promoted too. Expect there'll be a few things that can be added and some minor improvements but I'm confident based on the state of the article that I'll be able to get this promoted. Also hoping to use this article as a general framework for additional "list of cities in oblast" articles after the review. Cheers, Dan the Animator 20:06, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thought I'd put my thoughts about this in case it helps future reviewers. While the article as-is I think covers the subject well, I've been considering adding in a column for the establishment years of the cities (which both the Ukrainian and Russian wiki articles have). That said, the main List of cities in Ukraine just sticks with admin. subdivision and population and I also don't want to overload the table with too much info so not sure if this would be a good addition. Also was thinking of adding into the lead a few sentences about which are the oldest cities, that many were created as part of industrialization and are tied to the mining industry, and maybe also some comments about the current status of some of the cities (e.g. the fact that Bakhmut, Mariupol, Avdiivka, etc. have been mostly destroyed during the full-scale invasion) but not sure if it makes sense here since these already fall in the Donetsk Oblast article's scope. Feel free to let me know y'all's thoughts on these and hopefully they help with ideas but happy to make whatever improvements I can to the article! Cheers, Dan the Animator 21:31, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
- No article should start with "this is a list". Take a look at some other FLCs and come up with a more engaging opening sentence.
- Before nominating, I tried searching to see if there's other similar list of cities articles that're FL and found this: List of United States cities by population. Not the exam same type of article but it also starts off with "this is a list." If it helps though, I could take out that sentence and reword the next sentence to say:
There are currently 52 populated places in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine, that have been officially granted city status...by the Verkhovna Rada, the country's parliament.
- That list was promoted over 15 years ago and standards have changed massively since then. Your alternative suggestion sounds good for an opening -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:20, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed it based on the above. Thanks again ChrisTheDude! :) Dan the Animator 16:24, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- Drive by comments
- Just like the first comment above saying no article should start with "this is a list", no article should have a reference to the list outside of the list itself. The sentence "The below list shows the English name, Ukrainian name, raion, 2001 census recorded population, 2022 population estimate, and population percent change for each city." does not seem to serve a purpose.
- Fixed
- "currently" not needed in first sentence.
- Fixed
- What do the numbers in the first column mean? Why is this column there?
- Fixed? when overhauling this article, I tried to base it on conceptually similar articles, primarily List of cities in Ukraine and others like List of cities in Australia by population and List of cities in Kansas. From my understanding and the way I've always used it, the column is a type of number ranking which allows readers to sort tables and have number rankings for each row, which can be quiet useful for finding out things like what's the 10th largest city in 2001/2022, how many cities saw 10%+ pop. change, etc. In case it helps, I added one of the template's title options "#" on the top of the column with some extra table code. That said, I saw other list articles such as List of cities in Canada and List of cities in the United Kingdom don't use it so I don't mind taking it out. The template also allows for the title "No." but I think "#" works just the same. Let me know what you think about it though.
- It's not common to have a link to a portal in the see also, would suggest removing both portals from the see also section.
- Removed
- Image alts could be more descriptive (for accessibility reasons)
- Fixed? Tried to make them more informative but let me know if I should reword/shorten/expand them.
- as could image captions (for example, "the largest city in Donetsk")
- same as above
- table completely unsourced, need refs for population columns in header.
- Fixed 2022 column; for the 2001 census results, I'm currently searching for a Ukrainian gov. website to add to that column though haven't had luck with finding a gov. source that lists all of them. I'll make sure to send a follow-up update when I find it!
- No need for external links subheading, just external links is fine
- Fixed
- Normally estimates would not be encyclopedic, but given the extenuating circumstances and lack of any recent census, I suppose this makes sense until the next census? Other than these points above, the article looks quite good! Many of them are vital before being promoted.
Mattximus (talk) 02:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yup, the Next Ukrainian census doesn't seem like it's happening anytime soon and with the current war, I don't think the statistics would be as useful anyways since they've been changing a lot frequently. Let me know if there's anything else I can do and many thanks Mattximus for all the comments!!! :D Dan the Animator 05:44, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks good, just two outstanding issues. First, it is critical to have a citation for the 2001 census populations, it cannot pass without this. Second, I do like your change to alphabetize the list (that makes it easier to update when the next census actually comes out), but I think the table should not include the number column as it doesn't serve the purpose beyond a count. Since it is a list of cities, the cities column should be the same colour as the headings. Mattximus (talk) 18:45, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Still working on the 2001 census citation but for the number column, I removed it. About the cities column shading, I haven't seen any table in a "List of cities" article that has it like that. I've looked through at least a dozen varied similar articles (also highly recommend checking out this to see how other articles do it) and they all use the same general shading (the only column that gets fully shaded in any of the tables I've seen is the number column (which I removed from this article per above) and not the cities column. Also don't think it would conceptually make sense to have that shading since both the English and Ukrainian name columns are both "cities columns" imo (and they both are exactly the same in functionality/formatting). Let me know though if I'm missing something and thanks again with the comments! :) Dan the Animator 21:11, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I believe this is a requirement for the nomination, I just checked all featured lists of cities have it. I clicked on one at random: Cantons of Costa Rica which was one I put up for promotion. I know this is a requirement because I was asked to do it many times. Mattximus (talk) 15:43, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Mattximus can you post a link to other, more recent past FLs of cities (as many as you know of)? I don't think the article for Cantons of Costa Rica is a good comparison to this article since the Ukrainian equivalent of that article would be List of hromadas of Ukraine (or Raions of Ukraine depending how you look at it). Would help to see maybe some of the other FLs tho, especially if they're more recent (I noticed your FLN for Costa Rica is from 2016 but was wondering if they'd changed it since then). Thanks!!! Dan the Animator 17:10, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes this has been a policy for at least 8 years (it's in the MOS somewhere), common format for all featured lists in general. You can check out User:Mattximus and click on any of the 45 featured lists of cities/municipalities (the ones with a star beside them), there is also a more comprehensive list when you click on featured lists and scroll to find the cities lists. I clicked randomly to a whole bunch, and can't find any that didn't fit this standard, so I think it is a necessary change. Mattximus (talk) 17:39, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose just for now based on missing citation for the entire 2001 census column (the link failed verification as it has similar but not identical numbers as the table here). And the format for the table seems to be incorrect. Specifically ,city name should be same colour as headings, and tables needs captions (|+ <caption_text>, or |+ <caption_text> if that text would duplicate a nearby section header). Table captions allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables, without having to read all prior text to provide context.). Mattximus (talk) 18:05, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Mattximus: Completely fixed the table/formatting issues. For the citation, would either of these sources (source A, source B) be acceptable? It's alright if not but given the complete 2001 census data increasingly seems like its not available online (and thus would probably be a book citation) and the Ukrainian language wiki page (which has recognized article status) uses the former source (the mashke.org one) in their version of the list, I wanted to ask. Many thanks again with everything and let me know if there's any other issues I can fix (and if the formatting for the table is alright now). Cheers, Dan the Animator 15:42, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Table is completely fixed, good work, but the one last citation problem remains. Is there anyone who can help find where these numbers come from? The links you provided give different numbers, and don't seem to come from any official document. But surely this document exists. Maybe another user has an idea? 19:06, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- @HappyWithWhatYouHaveToBeHappyWith, Ymblanter, Mupper-san, Shwabb1, Yulia Romero, and Микола Василечко: pinging in case y'all have any advice about this (wasn't sure who to ping so sorry in advance for the bother!!!) Dan the Animator 00:41, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not particularly well-versed in the discussion, so do forgive if this isn't what is being talked about, but given the fact that mashke.org has an unclear source and (at least according to Firefox for me) has an unsafe connection, I would personally use the numbers included alongside the currently-used sources, as they're official documentation. As citypopulation.de cites mashke.org, I also wouldn't include it.
- Perhaps, it would be possible to e-mail Mr. Bespyatov (the owner of mashke.org, judging by the copyright at the bottom) and ask him for a source? Although I'm not quite sure.
- Mupper-san (talk) 01:59, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Mupper-san! :) I agree with the concerns for the two sources though the only official Ukrainian government source I could find lists the 2001 census results for only 28 of the 50+ cities in the oblast. Also, although my guess is he got the numbers from the physical records in Kyiv, I think contacting Mr. Bespyatov is a great idea! I'll send him an email in a moment and reply here if he follows up. Dan the Animator 04:58, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- It's on the 2001 census website. Go to Publications, download the file kl_2001.rar under "Кількість та територіальне розміщення населення України" (The number and territorial distribution of the population of Ukraine). Open the file 5.xls, you'll see the breakdown of population by raion/city/urban-type settlement. The data for Donetsk Oblast starts on row 552. Be aware that the names are before the decommunization laws (e.g., Artemivsk instead of Bakhmut). Shwabb1 (talk) 05:44, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Shwabb1!!!!! :D It worked perfectly and I accessed all the stats (only one of the numbers was off on the article thankfully tho). @Mattximus: I think that about finishes everything?

- Overall looks good, I only see two small mistakes: Krasnoarmiysk should be Krasnoarmiisk using official romanization (per WP:UAPLACE), and in the first citation "urban-type settlements" are mistranslated as "towns". Shwabb1 (talk) 01:10, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Looks good now I will strike the oppose. I think there should be a heading "notes" just like references below and the note can go there instead of floating kind of below the table. I think the format of the reference needs a bit of work (I believe you need filetype for something like a rar?), but nothing here to oppose over. Nice work! Mattximus (talk) 21:57, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Mattximus and Shwabb1!!!! :) I think I fixed basically all the above suggestions! For the new reference's formatting tho, I wasn't sure exactly how much needed changing but I added the

parameter in with a link to RAR which hopefully helps (feel free to let me know if there's anything else I can do tho). Dan the Animator 01:31, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
- Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting
|+ caption_text
as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting|+ {{sronly|caption_text}}
instead. - Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding
!scope=col
to each header cell, e.g.! [[City|City name]]
becomes!scope=col | [[City|City name]]
. If the cell spans multiple columns with a colspan, then use!scope=colgroup
instead. - Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding
!scope=row
to each primary cell, e.g.|[[Amvrosiivka]]
becomes!scope=row |[[Amvrosiivka]]
, on its own line. If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use!scope=rowgroup
instead. - Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions. --PresN 18:41, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Thanks PresN for the reply! I was hoping when I pinged that you and Mattximus would give supports to this nom, which would bring the support count up to 3 which I think is the minimum needed for consensus? That said, I'm not too much in a rush; rather, since I have to take a semi-Wikibreak not long from now (in July) where I'll be able to edit but not too much, I was hoping to get this list as thoroughly checked and improved as possible so that when I nominate the remaining lists for this series, I won't have to make any major edits on those articles (they're all relatively similar too so whatever change I make one list likely would have to be made on the others, which is easier to do before those articles are created). I understand you all are busy so no worries about promoting but it would help a lot to know if I should expect to make additional changes. Cheers, Dan the Animator 23:40, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Fixed? I think I accessed it using the link about a week ago but you're right! Don't know why both the archived and normal link stopped working. I switched it with the permanent, webpage link and added instructions on the ref of how to access the numbers. Let me know if its good now.
- The image captions seem to be incorrect, the are not the largest or smallest cities, as no land area was given. They are the most populous, least populous, have the second largest population, wording like that is more correct.

I saw that the Luhansk list is already in queue for a source review but not this one so not sure if there'll be a source review soon.About the source tho, how does it look on your end?

- Things look great, but I still can't access the source for the 2001 statistics. I do believe this article needs a source review so whoever does that will give the go ahead and I'll agree with them since I'm not an expert on sourcing. Mattximus (talk) 16:27, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Image review by Staraction
- All images are relevant to the article
- All images are usage tagged properly (AGF on own works)
- All images have alt text except for the map in the infobox. Suggestion: the alt text has citation numbers (ie. [22]) for some images, those probably do not need to be in the alt text
- All images have relevant captions
Thanks for your work @Dan the Animator! Staraction (talk | contribs) 17:39, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment by FL nominator
- @Mattximus, Steelkamp, Dajasj, and Chipmunkdavis: Many sorries for the bother but considering y'all's contribution to the other, very similar FLN for List of cities in Luhansk Oblast which got promoted a few days ago, and my completion of applying all the suggestions from that nom to this article, I thought I'd ping y'all in case any of y'all are interested taking (or retaking) a look at this list now and hopefully providing comments so the nom can advance. @PresN: thanks for doing the source review on the Luhansk list!!! :) Thought I'd ping here in case you're interested in doing this one too; also, they share about 70% of the same exact refs (plus a lot of shared content too) so most of the source review for this article you already technically did with the Luhansk review which I thought might make this one a lot easier/quicker to get through. Sorry again for any bothers and looking forward to any additional feedback and to getting this nom completed! Dan the Animator 03:17, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support from CMD
As the nominator noted above, I made comments at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of cities in Luhansk Oblast/archive1 which appear to have already been actioned here.
- Prose/lead.
- "...occupied all cities located..." might be clearer with a number, "...occupied all X cities located..."
- A number may also be helpful at "Additional cities were...", which may provide a route to reword/remove the "...while an additional two cities (Lyman and Sviatohirsk) have been recovered..." wording, as I am not sure "addition" is clear in meaning. Having numbers for both invasions and the counteroffensive means that there is no need for an "As of X date...", which might quickly appear dated.
- The final sentence is a tad confusing. Firstly, "occupation of the three reformed raions" is an odd pipe, all of the raions were reformed (removing "the" may solve this problem). Secondly, "including the cities of Bunhe, Chystiakove, Kalmiuske, and Khrestivka" is unclear, I assume those four are former cities of regional significance, but the preceding clause already states "reformed raions" so I would assume they are included by default. Lastly, "the three raions[b] and four cities' new names have only de jure status" seems to imply that the cities under Russian control outside of the 2015 occupation zone de facto use the new names, which would surprise me. It also reads oddly that the raion names are specifically pointed out, this list isn't about the raions and noting names specifically as de jure suggests that the raion otherwise operates de facto, which would also surprise me.
- Comprehensiveness: Comprehensive.
- Structure: Is one table, sortable.
- Style: Not necessarily my strong point, but the decorative images are all licenced as is the locator map. There is a "Jump to table of cities" for mobile access. Alt text is present on all images bar the infobox, which does not seem to have the feature encoded.
- Stability: Stable.
As with the previous review this is a novel interwiki usage, but I don't see how it affects the FLCR. I do think this article (and similar ones) would be served well by dropping the locator infobox and replacing it with a map of the Oblast showing the various city locations, but that is also not a FLCR requirement. In summary, questions for FLCR1/2 and no questions for the other FLCR. CMD (talk) 07:13, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks @CMD: for the review! I think all the suggestions should be addressed. I applied some of the rewording and moved some of the other confusing content into efn notes. Also, thanks for the suggestion with the map! Added it and I think it turned out perfect! (props to Tone for their exceptional work on the UNESCO FL maps which helped a ton with creating this map)! :) I'll also apply these edits to the other lists if you think they're alright CMD but let me know if there's anything else I can do to improve these lists! Thanks again! Dan the Animator 04:45, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- The suggestions were addressed, the efn notes help and nice work finding relevant sources. Hopefully more secondary sources emerge on the topic, it is an area not currently well covered on en.wiki. I had a look and could not find a source linking the 2020 raions with the 2015 era occupation (the current primary source used does not support "by 2015"). However, I did find this source, which mentions the DPR and LPR continuing to use the old names (page 10), and has a list of renamed places and whether they are occupied (pages 84-89). It uses the old raions, but it has relevant dates and names that can supplement the existing sources for "by 2015" and those in the efn notes. CMD (talk) 12:45, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks CMD! I added in your source into the names efn together with some additional sources. I added a complementary source for the primary ref I think you're talking about (the "About the boundaries and list of raions...temporarily occupied" ref): journalist's David Gormezano France 24 piece characterizes the main Donbas war phase as "April 2014 – February 2015" and also says in that section "On February 12, 2015, the so-called Minsk II agreements formalised the de facto partition of Ukrainian territory...In the years that followed, and until the full-scale Russian attack on February 24, 2022, small-scale attacks and artillery fire hardly ever ceased, without the line of contact between the forces really moving." which should be enough imo to back up the 2015 year (most of the cities were actually occupied in 2014 but due to Debaltseve, I think the wording "by 2015" is more accurate. To sum up, the "About the boundaries" ref verifies which cities were occupied during the Donbas war while the France 24 piece backs up the claim that the occupations of cities during the Donbas war happened between April 2014 and February 2015.
- About the use of the 2020 raions when talking about the 2014-2015 occupation: its mostly done out of concision than any actual connection between the two (technically, the new raions' boundaries were decided with consideration of what territories were occupied by DPR/LPR forces at the time so the area could be easier to govern (at least as far as I know) but aside from that, there isn't any actual meaningful connection between the new raions and what areas are occupied). Using the new raions saves on words and makes it easier to understand since there's no caveat to which cities in the raions are occupied and which aren't (for the older raions, since many of the cities are also municipalities, there'd be a need to either list all 21 cities occupied or separately list all the occupied city municipalities and raions, both of which would be unduly and more confusing imo). Let me know if it'd help to find a source mentioning/discussing this rationale for the boundaries for the new raions.
- Let me know if there's anything I'm missing or anything else that can be improved and whether this list is ready for promotion! Thanks, Dan the Animator 23:36, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't have an issue using the new raions, just wish there was more research on the matter. More sources would help of course, surely someone somewhere has looked up how the de facto raions function in reality and what provisions are in place for the raions that don't exist in reality yet? But, for the purposes of this article the sources are now enough that the list is ready for promotion. CMD (talk) 01:46, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Ah got it. I definitely agree more research should be done regarding Ukrainian administrative laws and reforms. About the de facto/de jure raions, as far as I understand it, the de facto raions function as they've always had in the pre-2022 occupied territories while for newly occupied territories, my guess would be it mostly affects the number of Russia-appointed representatives certain administrative entities get, what sort of government websites/digital representation the Russian government gives those entities, how the areas subordinated to those entities are referred to in Russian law, and, at least on paper, how much money/funding goes to each district (although I think its fair to say a lot of that money gets siphoned off by those Russia-appointed representatives or by Russia itself). Probably also a few other miscellaneous things but those are the main "practical effects" of the de facto raions. For de jure raions, its mostly just having websites in some cases (I remember reading a law regarding Crimea's new raions which mandated creating representation of the raions, which would likely include websites), and how the territories subordinated to new raions are referred to in laws (both in Ukraine and by others).
- I think one of the reasons why there hasn't really been any research into the "prospective" raions is because they didn't actually exist, either de jure or de facto, until relatively recently (the "occupied terr. admin. reform date" efn note elaborates on this caveat a bit more). And with the ongoing invasion and considerable budget strain of the Ukrainian government, I doubt they've been able to do anything meaningful in the way of these raions imo. Not sure if my reply really answers your question or helps too much but hope its interesting. Thanks again for the review and great suggestions (and the source)! :) Dan the Animator 02:37, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominations for removal
Following the recent FLRC for 30 Rock season 1 and a discussion regarding expectations for TV season articles, this list appears to fall clearly short of current-day FL standards. High-quality season articles (whether FLs or GAs) are generally expected to cover production, reception, etc. in addition to providing plot summaries. Sourcing is also poor, relying heavily on primary sources. RunningTiger123 (talk) 00:44, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- As a note: seasons 2–10 of the show are also FLs and I plan to nominate those for FLRC later for similar reasons, but it's only fair that each FLRC get due consideration, so barring any notes to the contrary (and to avoid flooding FLRC), I plan to nominate them one at a time. RunningTiger123 (talk) 00:56, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- This article isn't even close to being complete. At best this is a C level article. Gonnym (talk) 08:35, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- The original editor left Wikipedia years ago Tintor2 (talk) 10:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, I know that both the nominator of this season's list and the nominator for most later seasons left, so please let other people know about this FLRC if they are in a better position to help or provide feedback. RunningTiger123 (talk) 02:39, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
