- The following is an archived discussion of a featured list nomination. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the article's talk page or in Wikipedia talk:Featured list candidates. No further edits should be made to this page.
The list was promoted by NapHit 17:30, 21 October 2012 [1].
Jessica Mauboy discography
- Nominator(s): — Oz (talk) 23:05, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because after months of improving the article, I feel that it meets the FL criteria. — Oz (talk) 23:05, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Support w/comments below
- In the lead, a comma should be between "Running Back" and "which featured American rapper Flo Rida."
- Rearrange "Get 'Em Girls was released in November 2010, which debuted at"; perhaps "Get 'Em Girls was released in November 2010 and debuted..." Same with other instances of "which" following the month/year; "which" should follow the album as "which" is referring to it.
- According to Checklinks, the source titled "Sony Snaps Up Dean and Jess" by the Daily Telegraph could use a WebCite archive link, as it shows some status issue.
- Overall, well written and comprehensive for topic at hand. Dan56 (talk) 22:38, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- done — Oz (talk) 23:08, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment
- I previously assessed this page for FL1, I subsequently edited it at the time of its FLRC1 and have seen it improved under efforts by Oz. I make the following suggestions:
- alt text for infobox photo is a little thin. Try: A 23-year-old woman is shown in upper body shot and almost in right profile. She is smiling and looking slightly to her right. She wears her dark brown-black hair down and is dressed in a black skirt with gold threads. Her right hand is on her hip or waist. The background is deep blue-purple with gold letters S and A visible.
- "Mauboy's first number one song" > "Mauboy's first number-one song" cf "peaked at number one"
- "The album was certified double platinum by the ARIA," By this stage ARIA is the default certifying agency, where no confusion exists it can be "The album was certified double platinum,"
- "a commercial failure" this is a heavy statement for a No. 6 album compared with a No. 11 album – how is the former a failure? If you're basing the statement on certification alone then try a more neutral comment "less commercially successful" or similar. Some description is needed of Been Waiting's longevity (59 weeks in top 50 is notable) thereby explaining why it got 2× Plat when the higher charting albums, The Journey and Get 'Em Girls both got Gold.
- By the time of Snopp Dogg, "peaked within the top twenty of the ARIA Singles Chart" becomes "peaked within the top twenty". Unless there's any confusion charting default is also ARIA.
- "To promote the film The Sapphires (2012), Mauboy" What does the casual reader know about The Sapphires? A better explanation of her association (more than just a sound track appearance) is needed.
- "becoming Mauboy's lowest charting single to date" Some clarification is needed: does this include the "Waltzing Matilda" single? Does this include any other singles released in NZ?
- For tables showing charting information consider adding |+ List of albums, with selected chart positions and certifications Adapt as required.
- For the refs sectn delink repeat appearances. e.g. New Limited is wikilinked first time in ref[1] but should be delinked thereafter.
- Some reviewers may want titles in refs to be formatted according to WP:MoS e.g. "It's an Irish Australian Idol, to Be Sure".
- It's good to see use of WebCite to reduce link rot problems. Some more refs might need same.
- For ELs I'd adjust the Allmusic one, e.g. [{{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p885471|pure_url=yes}} Jessica Mauboy] at [[Allmusic]]
- While there add MusicBrainz link(s). e.g. {{MusicBrainz artist|id=18f719e7-e9b4-4216-8869-9083ebc23f7d|name=Jessica Mauboy}}

- Comment Just a quick comment on the gallery - it would be good to add another image to balance the two rows rather than have the white space on second row. Keith D (talk) 18:48, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I was slightly afraid of adding that gallery for precisely this reason. All the images are on row on my screen (a 17 inch laptop), but I know the appearance of the gallery will change with screen size. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 19:19, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reluctant oppose
The Rambling Man (talk) 16:33, 30 September 2012 (UTC) OK, images worked into the table (I still the the gallery was better, but I'll concede the point) and descriptions added. I think all the rest of your comments have been addressed by myself or Rock drum. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:10, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply] |
- Comments (but leaning towards Support) What a vast improvement since the initial nomination! At that time it was an OK list, with nothing special about it to take it into the featured category. I did not oppose at the time because I also had a list nominated, and did not wish to seem to be in any sort of competition. But Hassock's suggestions, and your implementation of them, have made all the difference (Hassocks has been a mentor to me too). Just a few queries for my own interest, which are not likely to make any difference to my giving support.
- Why have a separate column for Refs? They are not that important, and could easily follow the text in the Description column (this was asked of me in one of my nominations, and I now do this)
- I was also advised to centre the date column, (I guess to make it look more elegant).
- Why do you use GRs rather than coordinates? The latter seem to be more the standard way to give locations in WP; they are also more understandable to non-UK readers. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 11:26, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the comments. I dislike replying inline and making a mess of a relatively short list of queries so I'll address them here:
- The refs are in a separate column because it's not just the text that's being referenced, it's the entire row—the date of construction, the location, the grid reference, and the very fact the building is Grade I listed. It's also more aesthetically pleasing, at least in my opinion.
- I centred the date column, though the difference is almost imperceptible.
- OS Grid references are more commons in the UK, and are used in official contexts, such as by the Ordnance Survey. They're also documented on the National Heritage List for England entries, so there's no guesswork or original research involved in pinning down coordinates. By highlighting a square, rather than a specific point, grid references avoid the problem of having coordinates that point to an arbitrary location or, for example, the centre of a large property. And I don't think latitude and longitude means anything more to the average reader than a grid reference—the main benefit of including either (imo) is for the clickthrough to the GeoHack tool, which actually turns the string of characters into a location on a map.

List of films of the Dutch East Indies
- Nominator(s): — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:22, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because it is full documentation of films from a period and area which has received fairly little coverage in English-language media. Jstor has a French example, and this is based on an Indonesian list, but this is possibly the first example in English. With the addition of plot information (where available), this is even more detailed than previously existing examples. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:22, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment just a quick one (looks like a tidy list by the way), is there any reason why, say, Si Pitoeng (1931 film) is more notable than Njai Dasima? There are a large number of unlinked films, what differentiates their notability from the linked ones? Or is it just a sneaky way of avoiding red links?!

- Support - Man, they had a thing for downer endings in the 20s/30s. Only comment- sometimes you italicize plot summaries when they're vague descriptions ("A martial arts story", "A bandit film, based on Zorro") but sometimes you don't ("A love story based in Cibodas", "The story of a winged horse") - what's the reason? --PresN 18:00, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Standardised, thanks. I ultimately decided that what constitutes "vague" is very subjective so kept it all straight. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:19, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of threatened fauna of Michigan
- Nominator(s): Dana boomer (talk) 00:28, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm renominating this list (now that I have a bit more free time!) after, hopefully, addressing the issues raised in the last review. The main issue last time was the number of red links - since that concern was raised, I have significantly decreased the prevalence of red links. I do plan to continue working on this issue, but at this point, I think that the number is low enough to not be a problem. As far as I know, the other issues raised in the review were addressed. Thanks in advance for your comments, Dana boomer (talk) 00:28, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support Comments – I sympathise with your red-linking problems, I've had to write loads of stubs for insects and plants in my articles on the individual reserves in the Norfolk SSSI. Your article looks pretty sound, just some quibbles/requests for clarification Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:59, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
part of fauna of the United States — part of the fauna ?
- Done. - DB
The federal status descriptions have "listed…", the state status descriptions don't. Is there a reason for this?
- I was originally thinking it was necessary to distinguish listed species from candidate species, but then realized that the fact that they're listed (rather than candidate) is implied with Federal status = endangered/threatened. So, basically, I hadn't thought it through. Now that I have, I've removed the "listed"s. - DB
- I'd expect vertebrate classes to be in the order mammals-birds-reptiles-amphibians-fish, any reason for your ordering?
- This is the way it was ordered when I started?? Really, no reason other than not having a good reason to change the ordering from what it was when I began working on the list. If you would prefer it in the order you give above, I have no problem changing it - it's a simple fix. - DB
- I'll leave that with you/other reviewers Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:07, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Each insect order is given a subsection, but the mollusc groups each have a full section, is there a reason?
- This is the way they were split in the main reference I used. Do you think that some of the insect groups should be combined, or the mollusc group separated? - DB
Some of your intros have a redundant "of these" or "of them"
- I've taken a run through the intros and made some changes - have I addressed your concern? - DB
I don't think your link for cricket goes where you intended
- LOL, no it didn't. Now fixed. Thanks for the review, I believe I have replied to all of your points above. Dana boomer (talk) 13:15, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I hope the link above inspired you to watch the Women's Cricket World Cup final today (England v Australia, since you ask) (: No further concerns, changed to support above Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:07, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support Comments – Looks pretty good to me; I have minor nitpicks that should be easy to fix. Sasata (talk) 21:28, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I think the lead sentence should link endangered and threatened species. Unfortunately, species of special concern is currently a dab and not helpful.
- possibly useful links: natural heritage, subspecies, extinct
- "federally-listed" don't hyphenate compound adjectives with -ly words, per WP:HYPHEN (check throughout article)
- caption: "A spotted turtle, a threatened species in Michigan" sounds a bit awkward (other instances too)
- "One further species is listed as extinct in Michigan" further -> additional (check for other instances too)
- "A further nine species which previously had" which->that
- is it necessary to have tables with a single row sortable?
- why do some of the snails and fingernail/pea clams have two binomials listed?
- why are some pea clams "peaclams" (without a space)
- caption: "A European pea clam, a species of special concern in Michigan" Since there's more than 1 clam in the picture, how about modifying to "The European pea clam is a species of special concern in Michigan"
- Thanks for the review, Sasata! I think I have addressed all of your comments; please let me know if there is anything I missed. Dana boomer (talk) 13:31, 8 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it complies with the criteria. I based it off of two other featured lists (those about schools in some New Zealand regions).

List of awards and nominations received by Ricardo Arjona
- Nominator(s): — ΛΧΣ21™ 18:26, 30 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Arjona has won and been nominated for numerous awards; he has won one Grammy Award and one Latin Grammy Award, both for his tenth studio album, Adentro (2005). He has been nominated five times at the Billboard Latin Music Awards and four times at the Lo Nuestro Awards. Overall, Arjona has received 13 awards from 57 nominations.

Andre Norton Award
- Nominator(s): PresN 20:41, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I was looking around this morning to see which sf award list to do next, and when I looked up I had rewritten this one. I now present the Andre Norton award- hooked onto the Nebula Awards and run by the same organization, it's essentially the Nebula Award for the best young adult novel of the year. As such, the list looks eerily similar to Nebula Award for Best Novel, an FL that I passed through here a few months ago, and should reflect comments raised in that and similar FLCs.

David Lynch filmography
- Nominator(s): GRAPPLE X 05:21, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This man again. And he's nominating that man again—a man Mel Brooks described as "Jimmy Stewart from Mars". I'm pretty sure this one should be straightforward enough. It's based, loosely, on Spike Lee filmography though the differences should be clear enough. This is as comprehensive as I feel it's going to be (I don't think there's anything missing from it and as you can see from the sourcing there's been quite a few different places combed through to be sure. I even tracked down his television ad!); though I will need to keep an eye on The Cleveland Show (eurgh) to update any future episodes he appears in. Yes, the man who based a film about infanticide on the birth of his own disabled daughter is on a primetime US cartoon now. As always, I'll be on hand to respond to any questions and address any comments pretty promptly. GRAPPLE X 05:21, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
On the issue of which column to put first: Many screen readers are able to identify a "row header" and speak it when the user is navigating around a table. Let me take the example of the "David Lynch's film appearances and roles" table. Someone using JAWS, for example, could navigate down the Other column. They could set JAWS to read out the headers along with each cell, so they would hear "Other, 1966, Animator"; when they moved down one cell, they would hear "Other, 1968, Editor" - this is because the Year is being identified as the row header.
Now, if we made the Film entries into row headers (I'd prefer to call it Title because the whole row is the film, but that's just a nit-pick), the JAWS user would hear "Other, Six Figures Getting Sick, Animator"; followed by "Other, The Alphabet, Editor". Don't you think that is preferable?
If we wanted to change to using the titles as row headers, we could simply move the '! scope="row"' markup onto the Film entries in the table and most modern screen readers that I'm aware of would respect that and use those titles as row headers. It is possible that older and more primitive readers may ignore the markup and simply pick the first column as row headers, so swapping the Film column with the Year column would cover more cases than leaving it alone.
@Grapple: I don't intend to prescribe (or proscribe!) anything here, but I hope I can point you in the direction of improving access (and for whom you are improving it). You need to agree between yourself and the reviewers what are the best row headers and how to weigh the value of having them in the first column compared with your aesthetic preference for the year first. I can't make that decision for you, but it was that consideration that drove the Discography folks to putting title first. Hope that helps.
On other accessibility concerns, I'd recommend not using constructions like "Here Today Gone Tomorrow"<br/>"Truck Stop" to make lists of titles - using {{ubl | "Here Today Gone Tomorrow" | "Truck Stop" }} will produce a real list for the screen readers while displaying the same for sighted viewers like this:
- "Here Today Gone Tomorrow"
- "Truck Stop"
While I'm here, can I just point out that we are moving to HTML 5 very soon. In that version, tags like <center>...</center>
are deprecated, so I think our best articles ought to be demonstrating best practice such as using style="text-align:center;" instead. I'd also use style="width:65px;" rather than width=65 for the same reason. It's not crucial because mediawiki software and browsers will cope with ancient markup for some time to come, but at some point it will have to be updated and we can encourage good markup by providing those who will copy and adapt our best work with good examples. --RexxS (talk) 17:22, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Aha. I had assumed that a screenreader would give the full row rather than being able to break it up, and would read "1966, Six Figures Getting Sick... etc ... Animator"; given that insight I guess it makes much more sense to change it. I'll get to that now; same goes for {{ubl}}, etc. Thanks for that, as I wouldn't have realised it was an issue otherwise. GRAPPLE X 18:06, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Source comments –
- What makes Pitchfork Media (ref 32) a reliable source?
- Per their staff page, the site can be seen to retain employed editors and journalists; their editorial staff consists of several people (the article used in this list was written by one of the site's associate editors). I feel the site is professional enough about its standard of editorial practice (their taste and pretension notwithstanding of course :P). GRAPPLE X 22:22, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- What makes Consequence of Sound (ref 33) reliable? Giants2008 (Talk) 22:07, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The site seems to be held in reasonably high regard by more established media, enjoying a partnership with Time magazine ([16]), while its reviews are collected by the harsher-than-we-are Metacritic. As for its editorial practices, their about page mentions that they retain an employed staff and similarly lists their editing staff. GRAPPLE X 22:22, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment – Scanned the references for formatting/reliability issues, and the only minor things I saw were an improper hyphen in the publisher of ref 33 (should be an en dash instead) and the need for a space before the access date of ref 40.Giants2008 (Talk) 18:12, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comments - Overall, very nice. A few thoughts:[reply]
- "form on sheltered parts of the coast, in the lee of islands or behind spits" Is this a series of three, or are the last two examples of the first?
- I've added an AE style comma to make it clear that it's three Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- "Grassland is represented by grazing pasture" Is this grazed by wildlife or livestock?
- Added livestock
- "A 2005 survey at six North Norfolk coastal sites" Is there any way to get an update on this, or was it a one-off survey?
- Unfortunately, it appears to be a one-off Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- "who made overnight stays in the area in 1999" Again, any way to update this? It's over a decade out of date...
- As above, I thought it better to put in old data than nothing at all, but these surveys are few and far between. I haven't been able to find anything more recent Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- What is a "bird hide"? I'm assuming it's an area of protective cover, but haven't heard this term before.
Once these are addressed, I think I'll be happy to support. Dana boomer (talk) 16:37, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- bird hide linked now at each occurrence (since the list is sortable), they are called "blinds" in the US Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Ah, I was completely wrong! I thought it was someplace the birds hid from people, not where people hid from birds :) Dana boomer (talk) 19:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for review and useful comments Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, thanks for the responses. Too bad that there aren't any more recent surveys...but I agree that information that is a bit out of date is better than no information at all. Changed to support. Dana boomer (talk) 19:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of international cricket five-wicket hauls by Richard Hadlee
- Nominator(s): Zia Khan 23:10, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because I believe this is a list with inclusion FL criteria, on a notable topic about a notable individual. Actually about one of the best bowlers in the history of cricket, and one of the greatest all-rounders the game had seen. It'll be an attribute to a Cricket Legend to take this to a FL status. Comments or suggestions are appreciated. Zia Khan 23:10, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ref. No. 4 does not have an access date.Check the publisher name in ref. no. 14. It is written twice.Had number of dab links last time I checked.

Christian Bale filmography
- Nominator(s): — Tomica (talk) 13:45, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because... I have worked hard on it for certain period of time. Christian Bale is well known actor who deserves his own filmography page so that's the reason I created it. I think that the lead covers the most important content from the table, which is sortable and people can see how much the film budget was and its theater gross. For all the users who oppose I would like to post their comments so I can improve the article. Thank You— Tomica (talk) 13:45, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

300 win club
- Nominator(s): – Muboshgu (talk) 22:44, 8 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It;s important for WP:BASEBALL for this to become a FL. Joining the 300 win club is seen as one of the highest achievement in baseball, along with joining the 3,000 strikeout club, 300 save club, 500 home run club, or 3,000 hit club. Incidentally, those are all FLs. This will complete the set. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:44, 8 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- " In total, 24 pitchers " In total is redundant, but avoid starting the sentence with a number...
- Thought about how to handle that one for a while, was leaning towards "There are 24 members..." but went with spelling out 24. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:01, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- "finishing his career" would prefer "ending his career"
- How about "and retired"? Can change to "ending his career" if you're dead set on it. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:19, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- "suppressed offensive production" I don't understand this phrase or how a stadium design could achieve whatever it is...
- Some stadiums are hitter's parks while others are pitcher's parks. This could be due to a number of reasons, such as how far the fences are from home plate. Also, stadiums at higher altitude have more offensive production because the ball will travel further in the thinner air. The stadiums that were new in the 1960s (Dodger Stadium, Shea Stadium, the Astrodome) were definitively pitcher's parks. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:30, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- That is genuinely interesting. I think a little note for the non-baseball experts wouldn't go amiss here. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:39, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Something in addition to the link to pitcher's park, you mean? I can think about how to do that. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:01, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Isn't it "300 winS club" the grammatically correct version? To non-baseball readers the title needs to be explained and cited. Nergaal (talk) 01:17, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- That's a good point, but as you can see from the sources[23] and from the similar lists I posted above (3,000 strikeout club, 300 save club, 500 home run club, 3,000 hit club), the term which should perhaps be plural is most commonly used in the singular form. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:15, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of Braathens aircraft
- Nominator(s): Arsenikk (talk) 20:02, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is an attempt at an innovative list; creating a list of every aircraft, its registration, name and service history is deemed unencyclopedic by consensus at the WikiProject, so instead the list focuses on the use of the aircraft by the airline. As an aviation enthusiast, this is exactly the information I want: an image, the numbers and a description, a combination which is otherwise overlooked in airline articles. Any feedback is appreciated. Arsenikk (talk) 20:02, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- "Electro hip-hop" is among the genres listed in the infobox on their page; they are also explicitly referred to as an "electro-rap duo" on their AllMusic page, which also places them in the rap genre amongst established hip-hop artists. Other renowned critical review sites list them as "party hop" ([28]), "pop-rap" ([29]) and "rap/dance/pop" ([30]). I'd say that their utilization of the genre in their much of their music has to be somehow acknowledged in the article. Holiday56 (talk) 15:58, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
