The list was removed by The Rambling Man [1].
- Notified: WikiProject Discographies
I am nominating this for featured list removal because the article no longer meets the requirements for WP:FLC as it did three years ago. The article cites forums such as this which breach reliability policies, and the references are a complete mess—some of which are missing publishers, while others are completely bare URLs. The tables include certifications from countries that are not part of the table, such as "ITA: Platinum". The lead fails to take into account her most recent album, and various other notable singles that charted highly. Till 15:59, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delist. This list is not well written, does not follow the proper discography format, contains a large amount of unsourced content, and yes, the sources are awful. Zac 21:25, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The list was removed by The Rambling Man [2].
This April 2007 promotion has numerous issues that lead to it failing the FL criteria of 2012. The following are among the problems:
- There is a factual accuracy tag straight at the top that calls into question whether the list is up-to-date.
- A citation needed tag can be found at the top of the Records section, which is of concern since FLs need to have their information supported by references.
- Ref 6 has been identified as a dead link. Having tags for three different issues is a strong sign that the list needs work to keep its FL status.
- The intro is one of the bold "This is a list of..." openings that are now discouraged in FLs, and the lead as a whole is a little on the short side.
- The table needs row and col scopes, and perhaps a table caption, per WP:ACCESS.
- The international players could be included in a table as opposed to prose, and there's nothing to indicate why the other players listed here are notable.
- Some random style glitches here and there, such as a couple of references that need print publishers italicized and hyphens in ref titles that should be en dashes instead.
All in all, this needs a lot of work to remain an FL. Giants2008 (Talk) 00:15, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delist list not up to the criteria, per the points Giants makes. Notable players section particularly should be removed. NapHit (talk) 15:30, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delist - Per the concerns raised by Giants. The majority of the article seems to be out of date, as the "as of" notes at the top of at least two sections give dates in early 2011. The Other notable players needs expansion or removal - why are these players notable, what are the references for them being notable? Dana boomer (talk) 23:15, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
