Is ref 37 a magazine, newspaper or journal? If so, it should be italicized.
- An online mag. To me that's a web ref, not a journal ref. — Rlevse • Talk • 01:19, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- She hasn't replied. This is hardly a major issue, so I don't mind letting it go. Also, I've seen other webzine Wikipedia articles that don't italicize, so I'll go with that. Dabomb87 (talk) 20:18, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Renominating. Despite having considerable support last time round, User:Tyrenius raised a number of concerns which caused me to withdraw the nomination and work the list up a bit. Hopefully I've addressed most, if not all of his concerns, and in doing so have created an even better list than the one I first nominated. Comments, concerns, questions will, as ever, be handled as quickly as possible. Thanks in advance for your time. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:56, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I made a few changes rather than quibble about minor things here; feel free to revert if I've accidentally reintroduced misphrasings that were picked up last time round. Looks good to me, so unless someone comes up with something I've not spotted, I'll support. BencherliteTalk 19:52, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you. As far as I can tell, you've done nothing more than polish the existing markup (and inevitably claim that dark blue is the colour...) As ever, charmed, enchanted and grateful. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:24, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - looks good —Chris! ct 23:04, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

CommentSupport -- Looks good, I did a few minor tweaks but other than that the list meets WP:WIAFL.However, one thing: in this sentence 'Winners' reactions to the award range from Hirst's "A media circus to raise money for the Tate and Channel 4" to Deller's "It blew me away, people's hunger to see what I'd done".' -- It could use a link and full spelling of these winners.--Truco 503 00:40, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]- All "first time links" are linked, including Tate Britain which wasn't linked anywhere in the prose (I think....!)

I am submitting this for Featured List consideration as I feel like it's got the quality for it, I've worked in comments from previous FLCs. I know that right now the state of the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship article doesn't initially warrant that the list is split off, but I am planning on expanding it pretty soo. As always I'm open to anything, major or minor. MPJ-DK (talk) 09:58, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The reason I don't really reviewing discogs is because there is little variety and lots of refs to check. But check out they do and I have no further problems here, so I'm happy to lend my support. Well done, Rambo's Revenge (talk) 23:58, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comments I also know little about reviewing a discography's but below are a couple suggestions.
- I ran the article through AWB and nothing turned up there.
- The lead and table structure looks good.
- I think a little verbage would be useful for each of the sections of the different types of albums. I personally don't know the difference between a studio album and a compilation album is an I hope I am not alone.--Kumioko (talk) 17:18, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, there is a link to studio album and compilation album in the first sentence of the lead. Dabomb87 (talk) 17:42, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, that's what wikilinks are for. It is very common terminology in the music industry. k.i.a.c (talktome - contribs) 18:36, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, there is a link to studio album and compilation album in the first sentence of the lead. Dabomb87 (talk) 17:42, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It still has many issues though. The lead section for example, is much too short.--Matthew Riva (talk) 11:27, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So I've grown tired of "I am nominating this for featured list because...". Same stuff, different day. I hope we all enjoy reading about the defensive exploits of one of the most defensive positions in all of baseball. Cheers. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 16:38, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Just a note: this is your fourth running FLC. Dabomb87 (talk) 16:45, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, I know. I didn't know if there was an issue with that. I try to keep on top of them so there are no outstanding issues for an extended period of time. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 17:01, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Your FLCs are usually low-maintenance, and you're an experienced FLC editor, so I'm not worried. Just making sure you knew. Dabomb87 (talk) 17:03, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- I also ran this article through AWB and found a couple of minor things that I fixed. Mostly related to references.--Kumioko (talk) 04:19, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- What AWB did was break references that were intentionally placed where it considered to be "misplaced". Please don't run AWB on the other articles; they are in a different order intentionally. If you need to know why, I can tell you. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 12:54, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I apologize if it did not function as intended but its too late I already ran it through all the articles that appeared to need a change. With that said, there is no way for AWB to know if the references where placed due to personal preference and it is likely that someone else will happen by and make the same change eventually so its good to find that out now. Aside from the personal prefence placement of the references the MOS also states that there should not be a space between punctuation and references so thats why I removed the speces before the references. --Kumioko (talk) 13:25, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- But the spaces that you removed were not with punctuation. I'm well aware of the MOS and its reference requirements; the spaces that were removed were all in tables. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 13:32, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Um yes your right it was in the table but only in the references column of the table. I am going to drop a line on the AWB site to have them modify the logic so it does not remove the space after a pipe and well see what they say about it. I still think that space should be removed in accordance with the the MOS. --Kumioko (talk) 13:57, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Since it makes no difference in the way it displays, WP:MOS#Internal consistency should apply here. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 14:07, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have been debating with myself for a few months about whether or not I should try to take this page to FLC, because the main portion of it is rather small - 14 items, and some may believe it fails 3b. It doesn't help matters that Snowboarding at the Winter Olympics is basically a stub (although it could easily be expanded quite a bit). However, I think it passes based on its notability and because WP:OLYMPICS has a long-established guideline and the page is simply following it. I guess notability is relative, but I've always seen 3b as being more against small lists of questionable notability rather than against all small lists. So, this is one of the smaller lists I've worked on, but I decided to try it because even if it fails, it'll still be a near-FL page, which is good enough for me (and, in 8 months, it will grow).
You'll notice that the table is a little different than some of the other similar FLs. I decided to try using {{flagIOCmedalist}} rather than {{flagIOCathlete}}. I also used a "details" link, similar to what is used in the List of 2008 Summer Olympics medalists. Enjoy! -- Scorpion0422 20:22, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks good, but I prefer consistency. I slightly prefer the details link because it is more obvious, but since the Olympics medalist lists are so related, the same should be done for all. I also significantly prefer the athlete template; if you changed due to the comment at WT:OLY, I disagree with that discussion. The linked abbr is better than having the flag and the italisiced name and the abbr. Whatever you think, but I can help changing if it's a lot. I do like how you described what the events are in the lead. Reywas92Talk 22:01, 21 June 2009 (UTC) And I have no problem at all with the length. There is subtantial information, will (eventually) grow, and can be separate for consistency. Hopefully the main article will also be expanded. Reywas92Talk 22:09, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I switched to the athlete template because since the details are used, the rows are double spaced, and using the template filled them. I'll switch back to the old one. -- Scorpion0422 22:43, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support - I am hesitant to support fully because I don't like how the main article is still a stub (3b concern). But I agree with nominator that the Olympic Games is notable and that lists should be consistent. Also, the list looks okay.—Chris! ct 01:44, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – "In snowboarding cross, competitiors race down a course with jumps". Typo hiding in here.Giants2008 (17-14) 18:12, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]- The typo was fixed during a round of changes by Parutakupiu,
but I found a couple of new glitches that crept in. It's common for this to occur, but they should still be fixed before promotion."In 1998, four events, two for men and two for women, were disputed in two specialities". I wouldn't call Olympic events "disputes". There was nothing wrong with "held", the word used when I first reviewed the list."In this event, competitors race against each other down a a course with jumps, beams and other obstacles." One typo was traded for another.Giants2008 (17-14) 22:34, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]- Reverted the verb change and fixed the typo. Thanks for pointing out those. Parutakupiu (talk) 22:49, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support – All my comments were addressed, and everything seems up to par. It is a short list, but the main article could be expanded in a similar way as the wrestling title articles. Giants2008 (17-14) 21:10, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this article for featured list status because I've been working on it for a few days and I think it meets the FL criteria now. It is partly based on the featured list List of National Parks of Canada. TheLeftorium 21:58, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Question Shouldn't this be "List of National Parks of Sweden" with capital N and P?--Crzycheetah 00:09, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- These nation park lists seem very inconsistent, some have capitalization, some don't. I think it should be in lower case unless it is used as proper noun.—Chris! ct 01:45, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd just like to point out that in the case of List of National Parks of Canada, "National Parks of Canada" is the name of the actual organization, so I figured that was the most suitable title for it. -- Scorpion0422 20:24, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. I didn't review the references, but besides that, it seems like a solid list. Eklipse (talk) 10:31, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. I noticed no problems when read the list. Ruslik_Zero 14:42, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support the capitalization issue is a separate one and doesn't seem to affect the list much as a move will fix that quite easily, hence my support - also color should be accompany with symbols per WP:ACCESS—Chris! ct 21:35, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- It's very confusing to see Ängsö National Park listed last. Assuming the list is alphabetical, most readers expect to see it at the beginning, don't they?

- Well, I don't know how to fix that. When you sort it alphabetically, Ängsö and Örebro County still comes last.
- You could try "{{sort|Angso National Park|[[Ängsö National Park]]}}", and move the row to the correct location. That's how it's aphabetized in English. Jafeluv (talk) 09:46, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please have titles of the NP articles be consistent. Many links in the table with "National Park" in the title redirect to a title with just the name, like Dalby Söderskog National Park, which redirs to Dalby Söderskog. Please check all of them and move some to include the full name. Unless it's a special exception or is not only an NP, they should all have National Park in the title. All official names seem to include it [11]- Done.
- Great. I think Muddus, Padjelanta, and Stora Sjöfallet could be moved as well, and Sonfjället National Park should be changed to Sånfjället National Park.
- Yeah, I need to
add them to Wikipedia:Requested movesdelete them with Template:Db-move first.- All done.

Can we have a map? The article I linked to has a simple numbered map already on WP, and the EPA site has a pretty colored one with names, but I don't know if it's useable.- Would a map like the one used here be good?
- A clickable map? That would be great! You can use File:Sweden location map.svg. I've also worked with these. See Template:Indiana NHLs map, replacing "USA Indiana" with "Sweden". I can help if you get me a set of coordinates. Reywas92Talk 18:40, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know. The list is good, but I think that neither this nor the Canadian one is the best it can be. I wrote the FL List of National Monuments of the United States, which has more info. There could be a photo for each NP, but only if that's possible. I would really like a short description of what's actually in the NPs. We've got a nice list of names, but why are they special?

Comment I had to remove most of those quotation marks. Although they are the same words the source used, they should be used as paraphrases, not quotes. You can quote a sentence, but not just a generic word. Quotation marks around a single word are misconstrewed as scare quotes and are taken the wrong way. Either just write it as a paraphrase that happens to use one of the same words, or find a synonym. Reywas92Talk 18:16, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment
The list looks great after the copyedit, and my comments were resolved in the old FLC; however, the only thing that stands out now is that the publishers in the refs need to either be all linked (those with articles) or do not link any at all. I.e. link to CNET Networks.--Truco 503 00:51, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- I seem to hark on about this, but reference dates should be consistent. Currently I see two formats "Month DD, YYYY" and "DD Month YYYY". Both are fine but it should be used consistently, per this. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 10:22, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Changed to consistent fate format. -- Esemono (talk) 12:11, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Support
Oppose for now. In the introduction, the last sentence mentions Ancheta who was convicted for controlling botnets "to do his bidding". I think some specific details are needed here, what were the botnets used for? Spamming? ID theft?
- fixed -- Esemono (talk) 00:22, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Some of the sentencing dates have specific dates, and some do not.
I was unable to verify the date of sentencing using the reference provided for Jan de Wit, and the Richard Jones reference specifically states he pled guilty on June 3, 1993. The penalty for Gerald Wondra is missing a cite. These inconsistencies are no small issue and seem to indicate a lack of thorough copyediting. If necessary, I would add citations to the sentencing dates for full transparency and just to be sure there are no errors.--ErgoSum•talk•trib 18:23, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Cleared up the confusion for de Wit and while Richard Jones reference states he pled guilty on June 3, 1993 that doesn't mean he was sentenced the same day. Wondra's cite while was in the conviction column so I also added it to the sentencing dates for full transparency and just to be sure there are no errors. Also double checked, and confirmed all dates for the rest of the criminals. -- Esemono (talk) 00:21, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It looks better, but some entries have the year only, while some have dates. Are some of the specific dates not available? --ErgoSum•talk•trib 18:44, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah I can only find the year for Abene. I know when he started the jail sentence, Jan, 1994, and who sentenced him, Louis L. Stanton, but no specific date. Same with the Australian hackers Phoenix, and Electron. Their case too I can only find the year. -- Esemono (talk) 02:20, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- According to Abene himself, he was sentenced in 1993. Is he mistaken about the exact year, or am I missing something? --ErgoSum•talk•trib 21:49, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Cool you found a recent interview! But no more specifics eh? No exact date?-- Esemono (talk) 06:45, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I can tell you when he was indicted. I found another link that narrows it down to in the "last week". And this one which seems to indicate it happened on Nov 3. But I couldn't find any specifc dates for anyone else either, so I'm satisfied. --ErgoSum•talk•trib 14:52, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Magazines, journals, and newspapers should be in italics. You can achieve this by changingpublisher=
towork=
in the citation template.
- The article doesn't cite any Magazines, journals, or newspapers. The cite templates used are book and web. -- Esemono (talk) 04:34, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- My concerns are not so much with the prose, the sources or the technicality of the sorting etc. My problem is: what's the criteria for inclusion? How is it decided who goes on the list and who doesn't? What's the lowest cut off point? And frankly can a list with such an "open" definition ever be exhaustive? I just don't see how this list is complied and thus would not know how to add to it. MPJ-DK (talk) 09:52, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The criteria is listed in the intro and only those who are notable criminals or have done notable crimes are included. -- Esemono (talk) 13:46, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The criteria for what constitutes a "Computer criminal" is defined yes in a very broad sense, in this definition hacking your boss' mail would make you a computer criminal. What makes one a "notable criminal" however is vague at best. I mean if say "Mark Abene" had only been convicted of the misdemeanor would that count? He's a criminal, but maybe not "notable" - and there is no way to say that these twenty-something criminals are the only "notable convinced criminals" out there? MPJ-DK (talk) 15:50, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes stealing and reading someone's mail is a criminal offense. Not sure where you're getting the ages from, the list ranges from early 20s to early 40s which makes sense considering the computer industry is only a few decades old. And Mark Abene wasn't only convicted of a misdemeanor and a quick google search will confirm that he is quite famous and notable. Also, the article will be able to handle the notable question just like other featured lists like, List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people, or the List of Dartmouth College alumni -- Esemono (talk) 23:23, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Not ages, there are 23 entries on the list, does not sound like it's a very exhaustive list, just the 23 that you happened to find sources for. MPJ-DK (talk) 23:51, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- As talked about before, this is a comprehensive list of Notable computer criminals. The people are chosen because they are notable or involved in a notable crime. I was able to find references for these people because they are notable. The list will be able to be controlled by limiting the amount of people to just notable people much like the List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people, or the List of Dartmouth College alumni -- Esemono (talk) 03:58, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment - Got two questions. Why is the All-Americans table aligned center? And is there a reason why the tables are not sortable?—Chris! ct 23:00, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Not really. Is that better? I nested the key and All-Americans table inside an invisible table and aligned the table to the left margin and centered the key above it.
- For consistency and appearance mainly. The All-ACC table is really long, and would make scrolling a pain, so I cut it into thirds. Making it sortable like that would defeat the purpose of sorting (if that makes sense). Ditto the UM Hall of Fame table. Strikehold (talk) 23:30, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Support — I was asked to do a pre-FLC review and copy edit, which I performed. Even with that, I didn't find very much to fix. It's a clean and clear list that simply looks nice. JKBrooks85 (talk) 23:57, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – During a review I did before this came to FLC, I noticed two photos that were licensed as in the public domain, but no evidence existed on the images' pages that they were published before 1923, as stated. Has an effort been made to research this further? Giants2008 (17-14) 21:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- For everyone's awareness, Giants2008 is referring to the lead image (Maryland/Johns Hopkins) and the last image (Curley Byrd). Both were without a doubt produced before 1923, but there is a question as to whether they were actually published before then. The source (Univ. of Maryland library system) is not clear on that point. I replaced the lead image with one that was published in 1915, and am looking for a suitable replacement for the Curley Byrd image. I might also send an e-mail to the Univ. of Maryland to see if they can shed light on the publication dates for the two images in question. Strikehold (talk) 16:42, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Still haven't found a definitive answer to this, so I removed the picture. I believe this addresses the image issue. Strikehold (talk) 07:15, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because this, after 15 months, have been finally finished. I worked hard and recently got help copyediting for grammar and other errors. All comments are welcomed. (NOTE: If you have prose concerns, can I ask that he or she put out an entire list of issues? Grammar is not a strong point and would be helpful. Thanks.) It meets the criteria and has the precedents of List of highways in Warren County, New York (to which this is based), and List of state highways in Marquette County, Michigan.

- Comments - I have some concerns before I can support this article to be a FL:
- Why are there citations in the lead?
- Can the headers for the list of routes be changed to match what is in List of highways in Warren County, New York.
- In the table for State routes, U.S. Routes, and Interstates, I-87 and US 9 should be listed before the state routes rather than mixed in with them.
- Are the formation dates for any of the reference routes (besides NY 915K) known?
- Request shields for the county routes.
- Can lengths be added for the county routes? Dough4872 (talk) 18:32, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Citations are allowed in the lead if the comment doesn't come later in the body. Fixed the second one. Fixed the third. For the fourth issue, that is really doubtful, as 910L (now 185), and 915K are really the only two with ways to have it. The fifth thing: Requested, don't think you'll get them in time. The final thing, it would take weeks to get all those in, and besides, Warren doesn't have him, so its following a precedent.Mitch/HC32 18:52, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
