This is a twin nomination to that of the Lionel Conacher Award. While the Conacher award names Canada's male athlete of the year, the Bobbie Rosenfeld names the female athlete. I have attempted to ensure the technical comments from that FLC are already addressed with this one. Hopefully there will be only a minimum of content concerns.

Quick comments Support –
Voting: "Voters selected their first disabled athlete as winner in 2008". Feels like "the" would be helpful before "winner".List of winners: Don't think Javelin needs to be capitalized in the 1937 note.Giants2008 (27 and counting) 02:47, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]- Both fixed. Apologies for the slow response... I missed this on my watchlist when it popped up! Resolute 00:48, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Not much wrong apart from two WP:ACCESS issues. Firstly the table needs a caption; for this it would be
|+Bobbie Rosenfold Award winners
. Finally you need to add ! beforescope=row
. Other than this the list looks good. NapHit (talk) 19:35, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- A header would be superfluous, as the section header explains the table. Also, I do not intend to highlight one column of the table, which replacing | with ! would do. Resolute 20:06, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Both of these items are required by WP:ACCESS, currently the list does not meet access requirements. A quick read of MOS:DTT states that the priority for these two items is high, there fore I feel they need to be implemented. Recent FL's employ these I see no reason why they should be flouted here.

- It is not a case of flouting accessibility, it is case of not wanting to introduce redundancy for no benefit. The point of a table caption is to define what the table is about. The section header achieves the same function, and given there is absolutely no text between the section and the table, there is no ambiguity. I will add it if I have to, but I do not logically see how not having a header that says the same thing as the section title hampers accessibility. As to the other point, the important syntax is scope=row. The ! is wikimarkup used to make the cell a table header, but that is not an accessibility issue. I have no desire to use row headers, especially in the middle of the table. In fact, W3's own documentation appears to support this: "TH is for headers, TD for data, but for cells acting as both use TD". Resolute 03:18, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
