Nominating featured lists in Wikipedia

This star, with one point broken, symbolizes the featured candidates on 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:

  • actionable objections have not been resolved in a timely manner; or
  • consensus for promotion has not been reached after significant time; or
  • reviewers are unable to judge whether the criteria have been met.

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 {{FLC}} template should remain on the talk page until the bot updates or adds the {{Article history}} template. If a nomination is archived, the nominator should take adequate time to resolve issues before re-nominating.

Nomination procedure
  1. Before nominating a list, ensure that it meets all of the FL criteria and that any peer reviews are closed and archived.
  2. Place {{subst:FLC}} on the talk page of the nominated list.
  3. From the FLC template, click on the red "initiate the nomination" link. You will see pre-loaded information; leave that text. If you are unsure how to complete a nomination, please leave a post on the FLC talk page for assistance.
  4. Below the preloaded title, complete the nomination page, sign with ~~~~ and save the page.
  5. Finally, place {{Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/name of nominated list/archiveNumber}} at the top of the list of nominees on this page by first copying the above, clicking "edit" on the top of this page, and then pasting, making sure to add the name of the nominated list. When adding a candidate, mention the name of the list in the edit summary.
Reviewing procedure

Please read a nominated list fully before deciding to support or oppose a nomination.

  • To respond to a nomination, click the "Edit" link to the right of the list nomination (not the "Edit this page" link for the whole FLC page).
  • To support a nomination, write * '''Support''', followed by your reason(s). If you have been a significant contributor to the list before its nomination, please indicate this. Supports are weighted more strongly if they are given alongside justifications that indicate that the list was fully reviewed; a nomination is not just a straight vote.
  • To oppose a nomination, write * '''Oppose''', followed by your reason(s). Each objection must provide a specific rationale that can be addressed. If nothing can be done in principle to address the objection, the director may ignore it. Please focus your attention on substantive issues or inconsistencies, rather than personal style preferences. Reviewers who object are strongly encouraged to return after a few days to check whether their objection has been addressed, and nominators are encouraged to use {{reply to}} or other templates to notify reviewers when replying. To withdraw an objection, strike it out (with <s> ... </s>), rather than removing it.
  • If a nominator feels that an oppose vote has been addressed, they should say so, rather than striking out the reviewer's text. Nominators should not cap, alter, strike, or add graphics to comments from other editors; replies are added below the signature on the reviewer's commentary. If a nominator finds that an opposing reviewer is not returning to the nomination page to revisit improvements, this should be noted on the nomination page.
  • Graphics (such as {{done}} and {{not done}}) are discouraged, as they slow down the page load time.
  • To provide constructive input on a nomination without specifically supporting or objecting, write * '''Comment''' followed by your advice.
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:

The Pro Bowl is the National Football League's version of an all-star game, and an accolade that's very often discussed when comparing players and considering their candidacy for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I'm excited to nominate this list in hopes it'll be my sixth Detroit Lions featured list. It's based on List of Green Bay Packers Pro Bowl selections, which was promoted in March of this year. Please let me know if there are any issues or concerns and I'll do my best to respond in a timely manner. Thank you in advance to anybody willing to review or provide any feedback!

  • Support I often wonder what would have happened if we had drafted Barry Sanders instead of Tony Mandarich. This list reminded me :( As the originator of the Packers companion list, I don't see any issues. Nice work! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 02:19, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for the review @Gonzo fan2007 and the original that I based this off! If you had drafted Barry... he might be universally recognized as the GOAT like he should be and he might not have retired early lol. You also wouldn't be able to point out that people who have a claim for the best peak at their positions (Barry and Calvin Johnson) both retired with plenty left in the tank (quietly sobs in Lions fandom before remembering the current team's trajectory).

  • MOS:GEOLINK for Detroit, Michigan.
  • The Lions compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member - Would it be better to say as members?
  • Five of these exhibition games were played, with the last occurring after the 1942 NFL season before the NFL reduced the number of teams and games in the season due to players serving in World War II - I think a comma between season and before would make it clearer?
  • following the 1950 NFL season. From the 1950 season - A bit repetitive. Maybe something like From that season?
  • or the fact they are playing - or the fact that they are playing?
  • If a Pro Bowl selectee ... alternates are named in the players' place - Two things: 1) it should be in the player's place; and 2) how many alternates are named in one player's place? If it's only one, then it should be an alternate is named in the player's place. If that's the case, have a look at the following sentence as well.
  • selections with 10, while Yale Lary (nine selections), and Lou Creekmur (eight selections) round out the top four - 9 selections and 8 selections, as per MOS:NUMNOTES.
  • Regarding the images, I guess it would be nice to have links to the playing positions, but I don't think it's possible for most of the cases, as including them would create seas of blue...
  • I think it would be better to be consistent and always state when each picture was taken, as long as it's possible and as long as the picture is not contemporary to the decade alongside which it's included. Jason Hanson, for instance.

This was tough. Over 1,800 entries for the Packers all-time roster. For this list, I will note that I weighed two variables higher than I usually do: article size and reliability. I created this roster in the simplest form I could to facilitate ease of updating. No need for 50+ entries to be updated with their tenure, games played, positions, etc. If they played one, game then they get added. As somewhat of a precedent, Outline of lichens provides a good example of a massive list that is primarily just bulleted data, allowing for proper organization/sorting but not providing any additional details on the entries. As always, happy to address any concerns (one note, I have a 2024 holding area on the talk page, if this is a concern and there is a desire for the list to be up-to-date per the most recent game, let me know and I will do it). « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:19, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Not an official 'review', since I'm not familiar with FLC, but I came up with two points from looking at the list: (i) did 'Earl Smith' (the lone redlink) really play for the Packers? I can't find him at PFR nor PFA; (ii) is it correct to say that Roster sizes have evolved since the early days of the NFL, growing from 18 roster spots in 1921 to the upper 40s by the 2020s.? The gameday roster is 47/48 active players but overall the 'active roster' can contain 53 if I remember correctly (see Template:Green Bay Packers roster which has 53 active). BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:14, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BeanieFan11, great comments. I will admit that Earl Smith (American football) frustrated me. I did some more investigation and realized that he and Mike Merriweather never recorded a game played but are still included in the Packers' all-time roster. If you search on the Packers all-time roster for games played less than 1, those two come up. I will address this with a note and remove them from the main list. I will fix it to say the low 50s and add a note. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 19:35, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd keep Merriweather, as the list says it is for those who have played at least one regular season or postseason game – and per PFR he appeared for them in the playoffs. Likewise you could add Keshawn Banks, who appeared in one playoff game last year. I don't see why they have Smith in the all-time roster, though. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:38, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Added both BeanieFan11. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 19:45, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Further comment

[edit]
  • Is there an existing "standard" for NFL all-time roster lists? I only ask because if you look at equivalent lists for association football, e.g. List of Arsenal F.C. players, the standard format includes more information i.e. the dates of a player's career, their nationality, their playing position, and their stats, whereas this article is just literally a list of names. Appreciate that stats might not be appropriate in this case given that players are not all measured in the same way and nationality might be excessive as they are/were probably pretty much all American, but would giving the positions and dates not be beneficial to the reader? Just a thought...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:30, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ChrisTheDude, there is no WP:NFL standard that I am aware of. If you look at almost all the team lists (easily looked at List of NFL players), they are a mix of just bare lists all the way to tables. That said, my reasoning on this list was based on accuracy, ease of updating and page size. If you go back and look at all of those lists, none are actually up-to-date. Seeing as this list is currently over 1,800 players and grows by about 30 a year, it just becomes too cumbersome and difficult to update when you have to include years and games. Positions become difficult too, as many early players played like 6 different positions. That will also increase the size of the page exponentially, necessitating splitting it at some point, making navigation and updating even harder. The companion of this list, Lists of Green Bay Packers players, provides easy navigation to the type of tabular lists that provide that information. And per WP:NOTSTATS, if you really want to dive into a searchable statistical database, you probably go elsewhere then Wikipedia (Pro-Football-Reference.com, as an example). Lastly, the criteria say where appropriate, it has annotations that provide useful and appropriate information about the items. I think the where appropriate part provides the type of wiggle-room that has led Outline of lichens, for example, to be a FL, and what I am looking for here. I wanted a page that I could conceivably manage each season and maintain a high level of accuracy. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:33, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I now note that you said pretty much all of that in the nomination statement that I was clearly too lazy to read ;-P -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:22, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

With 1974 having just been promoted and 1975 having plenty of support, here is the list for 1976. In this particular year, Billboard began compiling this particular chart based on airplay alone, a policy which has remained ever since. Although the tide was slightly starting to turn in terms of easy listening music also dominating top 40 radio, there was still enough crossover for a chilled-out guy in a sailor's hat and his wife to have the biggest-selling single of the year.

  • Gonzo_fan2007 - I changed the second one. I'm going to pass on the first one if that's OK, as Billboard did not provide any more in-depth definition of what songs/styles were eligible for the chart, so to attempt to define it would (IMO) be bordering on OR.... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:29, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working on Gen Hoshino articles for around a year. Though there are several more topics I've yet to cover, I thought it would be useful to expand upon this discography page for an outline, and have decided to nominate it for FL. Though I've contributed to a few GAs, this is my first experience with the featured content process. I'm sure there’s many issues that I am unaware of and any/all feedback would be appreciated.

I don't know if I'm making this nomination description too long, but a few of the Japanese sources used I believe are new to featured content nominations on enwiki, so I'd like to explain my usage rationales for a few. Active since 2013, Real Sound is (in my experience) an authority source on Japanese music. They have interviews with high-profile artists (including Hoshino) and have several writers I recognize from other sites, some of which also with articles on Japanese Wikipedia. Rockin'On Japan is the website of a print magazine running since 1972. Similar case to Real Sound. I’ve used the online CDJournal on almost all my GAs without issue. They have an editorial team that publishes reviews for CD singles and albums, spanning several years. I see them sort of as the Japanese AllMusic.

I'll try my best to fix any issues brought up. Any comments are appreciated! IanTEB (talk) 13:52, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • It took me a while to figure it out but when you say "For double A-side singles, the first two columns refers to the A-side tracks, and the third column refers to chart positions, sales, and certifications for the double A-side release", I think what you actually mean is "For double A-side singles, the first two rows refers to the A-side tracks, and the third row refers to chart positions, sales, and certifications for the double A-side release" -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:54, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, thank you; I've amended the article. Having such a note is from the start a little unusual, but it's the best solution I could come up with since there's instances of one double A-side having three different peaks on a singular chart. IanTEB (talk) 11:24, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "which decisively opened at first" => "which debuted at number one"
  • "on the Billboard Japan Hot Albums and" => "on the Billboard Japan Hot Albums chart and"
  • "Sixth place on Billboard Japan's year-end ranking for 2016" => "Placing sixth on Billboard Japan's year-end ranking for 2016"
  • Why do you list the full track listings for the two indie releases but not for any of his official albums? I would suggest that the norm is not to show it for any album
  • Do his most recent three albums not have Japanese titles?
  • Never seen "streaming playlists" in a discography article but I guess in this day and age it's valid........?
  • "though it would still peak at number 40 on the chart in December 2016" => "although it still peaked at number 40 on the chart in December 2016" (same for other similar sentences in the footnotes)
  • That's all I got, I think...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:13, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @ChrisTheDude: I've fixed the issues with the text and removed the track listing. I based the latter off of Meghan Trainor discography, which includes track listing for independent releases. My reasoning was that these will never have articles, so this would be the only place to include that information, but I've removed it anyways since I agree with your comment. Streaming playlists comes from Taylor Swift albums discography. I wasn't sure if I should include them but thought I might as well. I'd have no issues removing if anyone sees it as an issue. His three most recent albums are titled in English.

  • "home to substantial population" -> "home to a substantial population" OR "home to substantial populations"
  • "managements problems" - Remove the "s" after "management". - Not yet done
  • "and the planned construction" - Not yet done
  • "which later developed ininto the regional capital". Also add a comma after "capital".

  • Labels to identify individual blue and yellow dots in the lead image would be nice.
    • Agreed, I would have done that if there were individual articles available, but here they are just sites.
  • Would it be possible to go into more detail on UNESCO's ten criteria?
    • That would be too much, that's why there is a link with the full explanations.
  • "The architecture of the island reflects the mixture of influences, with elegant houses of slave traders, fortifications, and warehouses where slaves were kept." this is oddly phrased: the first comma grammatically implies that the houses, fortifications, and warehouses were the influences on architecture. Would suggest "The architecture of the island, consisting of elegant houses of slave traders, fortifications, and warehouses where slaves were kept, reflects the mixture of influences" or similar.
  • Would be worth noting whether the House of Slaves was a slave trader house or a warehouse.
    • I rewrote it in a way that it should be clearer that the slaves were kept at the House of Slaves.
  • I suggest "(pictured)" instead of "(pictured)"—looks better.
    • I considered it often is these lists but since I am sometimes using (x is pictured), this would ruin the consistency.
  • "Societies, who engaged with fishing and shellfish gathering" clumsy, I suggest "societies who fished and gathered shellfish" or similar.
    • Modified.
  • "This resulted in a specific cultural landscape," as opposed to ... a non-specific one?
    • Well, there is an explanation later in the sentence what is specific about it :)
  • "People living in this remote area between the 11th and 19th centuries have created" also a little clumsy, and the imperfect tense is not suitable. Suggest instead "Inhabitants of this remote area between the 11th and 19th centuries created..."

Bats list #4 and mammal list #45: Molossidae. These are the 120 species of free-tailed bats, yet another pack of very small bats, but this time with little tails sticking out. These are the ones I think of when I think of bats, primarily because of the 1.5 million Mexican free-tailed bats living under a bridge in downtown Austin, where I grew up. As always, this list reflects formatting discussions from prior lists as well as the scientific consensus on the family. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 01:44, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • The family Molossidae consists of a two subfamilies
  • Shouldn't it be Ibáñez, with the tilde?
  • Why are some surnames between parentheses but others aren't?

That's what I saw, PresN. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 08:29, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Alavense: Done both, good eye. The parentheses are something from Binomial nomenclature that a reviewer pushed for a while back - it means that the original namer put that species in a different scientific name and its since been moved to its current one. For example, the New Guinea free-tailed bat is now Austronomus kuboriensis but it was originally described as Austronomus australis kuboriensis, and Miller's dog-faced bat, Cynomops milleri, was originally Molossops milleri; you can see in those articles' infoboxes that the namer is in parentheses. --PresN 11:53, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • "The awarding period runs January 1 through December 31 every year" - it's not really the "awarding period". I would suggest "The eligibility period runs from January 1 to December 31 every year"
  • "The most recent recipients was" => "The most recent recipient was"
  • "Network" is a very US-specific term. BBC One and BBC Two are not networks. Maybe "broadcaster" would work better.
  • Composer column should sort based on surname, not forename
  • Titles beginning with "The" or "A" should sort based on the next word in the title
  • Ref heading should be "Ref(s)" as in a number of cases there are multiple refs on a row
  • I am using {{refh}} for the ref headings. Per the documentation page of that template, "It's best for the abbreviation to be as short as possible, to keep the column narrow and create more space elsewhere. Communicating to the reader that the column contains references is essential; letting them know whether to expect one or multiple references per line is not."

  • Is that __TOC__ and {{Clear}} really needed?
  • In the captions, the year in which they were awarded the award is more important than the year the picture was taken, so I would say something like: Danny Elfman (pictured in 2022) was the 2004 winner. and so on.

Feedback:

  • Reference columns should be unsortable
  • I see that you link the broadcaster only once per year and I think this might be a bit of a confusing linking style. At first I thought it might be an ABC affiliate that was simply unlinked, but I realized it was just because it duplicated in that year. You might want to consider this linking style and whether it's the best choice (I personally would just link all), but that's not something I'll hold against you since it is actually consistently applied.
  • Thank you for the 2 hour ADHD hyperfocus deep dive into our policies. There is nothing that says that a sortable list has to have all instances linked, but there is also nothing that says they shouldn't be linked. The closest thing I have is an example on WP:DTT which has everything linked. When I feel like it I might bring something up at VPP I agree that links on every instance is appropriate in this case. I've adjusted as such.
  • In this case, I think you were looking for WP:DUPLINK. Nothing says that it needs to be linked in every instance, the only thing we ask at FLC is consistency, which you did have. But, as mentioned, was more a general note and not anything I felt would be worth blocking this nomination for.
  • 2010 – Time of Honor actually redirects to Days of Honor, what's the deal with that? Are there alternate translations for Czas honoru?
  • On the infobox for Days of Honor - please note the "Also known as... Time of Honor" underneath the image. I did a dig through the redirects and I believe they are the same series.
  • As long as you've checked
  • Some references contain wikilinks while others do not, so I'd recommend you add links to publishers/websites/works in the references.
  • Ref 5 – Dead but not marked as such
  • A lot of these references could use archive links (User:IABot)
  • Ref 17, 19, and 21 – Remove Kinetophone as the last name for these refs, leave it as just the publisher
  • What makes Kinetophone a reliable source? Can you find anything to replace it?
  • If you click "about us" on the site, you get redirected to the bio of Eleni Mitsiaki, who is a member of the IFMCA as well as a published journalist. She would then be a "recognized expert" under WP:RSEDITORIAL.
  • Ref 22 – Variety Media, LLC is unnecessary in this instance

I am bringing this back to FLC after six years with the sense (and hope) that the concerns from the previous nomination regarding this being a standalone list have evolved since they were brought up then (again bringing to focus List of Green Bay Packers retired numbers, which is one of the lowest number of entries of any FLC). The Packers have played in 8 stadiums throughout their history, the most of any NFL team. They play in Lambeau Field, the oldest and most iconic stadium in the NFL. Their unique community ownership in a small market required a very unique split of playing home games in Green Bay and Milwaukee for decades, a notable enough topic to justify its own article (Green Bay Packers home games in Milwaukee). The Packers also have three training facilities, one training camp location and a historic training camp location that is captured in this list. Based on the tenure of this article (8 years), the established notability of the topic, and the evolving feeling on standalone lists, I believe this clearly meets our criteria for standalone lists and the WP:FLC criteria. That said, and as always, I am happy to address any actionable concerns « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:41, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]
  • Lead image caption doesn't need a full stop
  • I would link Milwaukee as I don't believe that on a global scale it is well-known enough not to need a link
  • "After threats of forcing the team to move to Milwaukee, the City of Green Bay" - this kinda reads like the city did the forcing, which I presume isn't correct.....?
  • Don't think New City Stadium should be in italics
  • "After the Packers founder Curly Lambeau died" => "After the Packers' founder Curly Lambeau died"
  • As the table is sortable, the locations should be linked each time
  • "located across the street from the Lambeau Field" - this is the only place where you use "the" before the stadium name.....?
  • "The lodge is believed to be the first self-contained team training facility" => "The lodge is believed to have been the first self-contained team training facility"
  • That's all I got - great work as ever on another article for your team! I would produce a similar article for my team but as they have spent their entire 131-year history playing at the same stadium I don't think it could really be justified ;-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:22, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • and the City of Quito - Is that capital c needed?
  • There's an extra space between the lede and the first section.
  • Galápagos tortoise, Galapagos penguin - Should be Galápagos in both instances.
  • from the 18th century and from the 19th century, when the city was modernized - I guess the reiteration of from the is needed because the modernization only took place in the 19th century? Anyway, I think it reads a bit odd.
  • Why are some sites' names translated when others aren't? What's the rationale behind that?
  • A move forward came the second half of the 19th century - There's a preposition missing there, isn't there?
  • where stoneware - There's a comma missing before where.

It seems that you have no identity unless you have a flag.

— Alfred Znamierowski

I am nominating this for featured list because I have spent a lot of time making it and adding all the sources which I believe are reliable in this case. I have attempted to include all relevant information on every flag of every sovereign state of the world, including an image, a description, a date, a designer, and an aspect ratio. I have received much positive feedback (and even a barnstar) for this endeavor, so I feel confident in sending this as my first featured list nomination. ―Howard🌽33 17:40, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Due to personal circumstances, I am of the belief that I will no longer be able to edit the list substantially enough, in the present moment and the near future, such that it fulfills the criteria necessary for its promotion to FL status. I may revisit this list at some other point in time, but I am unconfident that such edits will be made within the timeframe of the present review. I may pepper the article with minor edits from this moment onwards, but remain cognizant of the fact that I leave the task of ensuring the fulfillment of the FL criteria to some other editor. ―Howard🌽33 22:48, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Airship

[edit]
  • The article has almost 900 citations and over 218kb of content. With that in mind, the lead is far too short: I would expect three paragraphs. As it stands, the prose is still a little clunky, but I think that would improve with increased detail.
    • I'm not exactly sure what is supposed to be put in the lead that isn't already included in the Background and definitions (B&D) section. Would you prefer if I just removed the section header so that "Background and definitions" forms a part of the lead?
      • No, that would be too excessive. See WP:SALLEAD: the lead should summarise the contents of the B&D section and the list. Three is actually excessive, two would do, but one is definitely on the short side.
  • "In vexillology, Polish vexillologist Alfred Znamierowski defines" little repetitive, why is the definition specific to vexillology?
  • I've removed the Znamierowski definition. It should have been cut out a while ago.
  • " governments have used them to promote and create bonds within the country, motivate patriotism" what non-patriotic bonds have been promoted/created?
  • See MOS:ANDOR
  • Switched to just "and". I think it means the same thing in this case.
  • Please provide specific page numbers for the relevant sentences in the sources you cite, as readers should not have to hunt through forty-page articles for verification; considering the current citation format, {{rp}} would probably be best.
  • I'm not sure which sources you are talking about here. Could you give an example or two?
    • Cerulo 1993, Tóth 2022, Becker et al. 2017
  • Given the emphasis in "Background and definitions" on flags symbolising and representing various things, I am surprised that the descriptions seem to actively steer away from describing them, and instead focus (very robotically) on the colour/layout arrangements. Can you explain this choice?
    • I've considered adding a "symbolism" column previously. But it might not be a good idea considering that many flags have complicated or even disputed symbolisms which would be better explained in its respective article (we only have limited space in the columns). Layout descriptions are objective and can be explained (relatively) straightforwardly. It isn't necessarily impossible, but we can't have both a layout description and a symbolic description without making the list very bloated. Since you do feel surprised by B&D not mentioning general layouts of flags, should I include a passage relating to this?

Otherwise, great work. Ping me when you've replied to/dealt with the above. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 11:14, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize you would nominate this so quickly but it's great work! The references column is way too big, it's 8 citations wide! I'd suggest merging these into the description column, but there are also way too many references in general. Like you could just say the books in the bibliography are general references without 200 footnotes to each one. Is there anything specifically taken from these books that aren't already in another reference anyway? I mean, there are a lot of flag books and sites out there so this feels like Wikipedia:Citation overkill especially since they aren't available online through the GBooks link. Reywas92Talk 14:02, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wait you can just do that on wikipedia? Just add a general bibliography instead of citing the books every time? ―Howard🌽33 17:02, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Citing_sources#General_references - although that mentions "underdeveloped articles", I think it's different for lists, particularly here when there are other citations that maintain "text–source integrity". I wrote these FLs a long time ago but I used them in United_States_Secretary_of_Transportation#References and List_of_governors_of_Indiana#References. You can also put a broadly used citation in the column header like in List of counties in Washington, or just list related books in a bibliography without calling them references. I know doing these wouldn't include the specific page numbers, but it appears a lot cleaner and it's not like it would be hard to find the relevant verification if you had the book in hand with a TOC or index. Reywas92Talk 18:23, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In this case, I have cited at least two books (Znamierowski encyclopedia and DK guide) and two websites (CIA World Factbook and Whitney Smith's flag articles on Britannica) for every entry on the UN countries list (excluding citing the World Factbook for State of Palestine). How should I go about mentioning these citations broadly? Should I include the link to the list of flag articles that Whitney Smith wrote for EB and the CIA's flag profile directory? ―Howard🌽33 19:13, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If I am understanding this correctly, here is what the "general" citation would look like.

Drive-by comments
  • 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. 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. | 1987 becomes !scope=row | 1987 (on its own line). If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use !scope=rowgroup instead.

  • All of your images need alt text. For more information, see MOS:ALT.
  • While it is redirected, Leopoldo Serantes is misspelled in the history section.
  • The icons in the Summer Olympics table under List of Medals need to be marked as decorative images, per MOS:PDI.
  • Your references columns should be unsortable. In addition, use {{refh}} to make the column information clearer.
  • The system of marking active competitors with just bold text is difficult to read for many people (and screen readers might ignore it entirely.). I would recommend using a template for that purpose: {{active}} along with a symbol like {{double-dagger}} for the screen readers.
  • In addition, why are you denoting active competitors only in the "Multiple Medalists" table?
  • You have two different footnote systems going, {{refn}} with a note parameter and {{efn}}. I would pick one and stick to it, or differentiate why you have two.
  • Footnote a has an unnecessary redlink.
  • Why do we have a {{DEFAULTSORT}} with the article title with some additional terms capitalized? Sorts ignore case, so I believe this is unnecessary.

Focusing only on reference formatting, and not whether the references actually verify the information:

Other comments:

  • The tables lack row and column scopes
  • "Mixed team" should not be capitalized mid sentence
  • Do not add empty rows into tables to split them up further, it messes with accessibility (I don't have the link off the top of my head right now)
  • None of the pictogram images hve alt text
  • Is there a reason home regions are not linked?
  • Lead needs work, it's choppy as can be.
  • There's a multiple medalist table under the medalist table which already pretty clearly shows who won multiple medals
  • Reference columns should be unsortable

Oppenheimer is a 2023 epic biographical thriller drama film written, directed, and produced by Christopher Nolan. Based on the 2005 biography American Prometheus by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin, the film stars Cillian Murphy as the eponymous scientist and chronicles his studies, his direction of the Los Alamos Laboratory and his 1954 security hearing. This is my tenth film accolades list to be nominated for featured list status, and I largely based the format off of the accolades lists for The Artist, The Big Short, CODA, Dune, Dunkirk, If Beale Street Could Talk, 1917, The Shape of Water, and Slumdog Millionaire. Note I added Sgubaldo as a co-nominator since he provided significant contributions into improving this list. Birdienest81talk 08:13, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • "who co-produced it with his wife, Emma Thomas, and Charles Roven" - is there any way to reword this to avoid the possible implication that "his wife, Emma Thomas, and Charles Roven" are three people rather than two?
  • "did not get released in Japan until March 29, 2024" - was this related to the fact that the subject matter was considered sensitive in Japan? If so, it might be worth adding that, as otherwise it seems a bit random
  • That's it I think - great work as ever! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:54, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • I've just removed 'his wife' since I suppose it's not necessary to specify.

With my Crimean list FLN promoted sometime ago, my Kherson list looking like it'll pass, and seeing that I won't be able to finish up the other lists I was working on too soon, thought I'd use the intervening time to continue the series! In the southwest of Ukraine, Odesa has never been occupied by Russia (except Snake Island and I suppose maybe some oil rigs off the coast) in contrast to the other lists that've come through FL. Lots of history and sights, this list might also have some of the most-picturesque photos imo. Looking forward to suggestions and excited to continue to improve the series! :) Dan the Animator 21:38, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • As mentioned above, the cells in the first column, which are the beginning of each row, need the row scopes added
  • There's something wrong with the population density column header that's making the cells at the top of the table very tall, I believe it's all of the <includeonly>||City</includeonly> inclusions directly until the text for population density
  • Everything after the regional district column should probably be right aligned instead for readability. It's currently difficult to follow the populations which vary wildly.
  • Why are the corporate names listing the name first? That should essentially be covered by the column to the left.
  • References have inconsistent date formatting
  • Some references missing the source of the information (who published it?)
  • Some sources contain wikilinks to the source while other do not, make consistent when an article is available to target
  • Former cities should probably be made into its own table instead of being four sentences
  • Percent column should include percentages next to the figures
  • Km column should include km2 next to the figures

Just a few comments, I still believe this is a fork of the list of municipalities, but that being said:
  • What makes a city "notable" as per first image?
  • What functions do cities carry out? Could be mentioned in the lead.
  • Gallery images in strange format, lack alt text (which is needed as per WP:ACCESS), and have non-descript captions. Suggest using common gallery format, adding alt-text and some informative captions.
  • While not necessary, it would be nice to colour code the %change as was done in the municipalities page.
  • Any explanation on why there are some cities below the threshold of city population but are still cities (were they grandfathered in due to losing population?)

  • I have removed that image as it is useless, because it doesn't display all the cities in British Columbia.
  • I can't find sources for your questions "what functions do cities carry out" and "why there are some cities below the threshold of city population but are still cities"
  • Fixed the gallery.
  • I am not colour coding the %change, because I tried {{Change}} and it would break the table.

  • Oppose This is just a basic bullet-pointed list and lacks visual appeal and usefulness of a sortable table typically preferred for featured lists. I don't find this particularly informative to read either because it only has a title, year, and artist for each work – the Capitol complex is very large, where are these pieces? What type of artwork are they? Which are part of the Statuary Hall or other collections? https://www.aoc.gov/explore-capitol-campus/art lets me filter by location, medium, and other criteria, but this page does nothing but wikilink to those with articles. Reywas92Talk 03:46, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That would make sense, but if I was just a passerby looking for "Artwork at the Capitol" I'd rather have it on one page then "Statues are located on another page". The list also covers artwork at the Capitol in general, it's not just paintings or statues. The statues list would still be needed though, because it goes into more detail about the statues themselves. (Also, I'll add a see also to the Statue article).

[edit]

First of all, I see above that this is your first nomination. Welcome! Just a few notes for you:

  • All of the images need alt text, per MOS:ALT. Alt text should describe a bit about the images for users that use a screen reader.
  • There is some inconsistency in the table for when you link - sometimes if an article doesn't exist it's a redlink but other times it's unlinked. The same with your artists. I would recommend making your linking consistent, either link all artwork and artists or only link ones with articles.
  • I've noticed that most of this article is sourced to the US Government. While that is fine, I'm wondering if maybe you could find some third-party sources for the introduction?
  • Are there an overall category at Commons for the artwork? If so, it should be linked in an "External Links" section using {{Commons category-inline}}. That being said, I was unable to find a category so feel free to ignore if you can't find one either. See also: MOS:ELLAYOUT

  • I see that this issue has apparently now been resolved, so I will do a full review in due course. One thing that jumps out at me is that there's no context provided for some of the stats or any indication of what they actually mean. For example, there's a table of players with the best strike rate, but no explanation of what strike rate is or even a link to another article that explains it. I personally know the basics of cricket but have no idea what strike rate is and the article doesn't provide me with any way to find that out. I appreciate that within an article we can assume a certain level of basic knowledge of a subject (i.e. I wouldn't expect a football article to need to explain what "scoring a goal" means) but some of the items listed here seem to go way beyond that basic level and we ought to at least afford people the opportunity to find out what these things are if they don't know, without having to resort to Google..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:28, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand what you mean, I'll be honest until a few hours ago even I didn't know how Average/ Strike rate were calculated, I just assumed they were somehow calculated.

@Alavense:
  • Fixed the MOS:GEOLINK issue in the infobox caption.
  • How are provinces sorted? What's the logic behind it? Why does Madhesh come before Bagmati, for instance? If you look at the maps in Provinces of Nepal#List of provinces of Nepal, they were ordered by geographic location (starting from the east and ending in the west). In fact a few of the provinces had numbers as tentative names when they were created. (Madhesh was "Province No. 2" and Bagmati was "Province No. 3"). That said, the ordering of the constituencies follow the order shown in the election results, but adding a number column to the table should reduce reader confusion. I'll be doing that.

As I prepared to rewrite "Georges Méliès", I became very intimidated by the literature. To get a better grasp on it and kill two birds with one stone, I expanded this bibliography. Much of it is based on his entry in Oxford Bibliographies, but where applicable, I supplemented it with book reviews and an annotated bibliography by Elizabeth Ezra. All suggestions are appreciated, and I hope to address them as soon as possible! Averageuntitleduser (talk) 17:51, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • his name often appears in the titles of books, chapters, or articles, not necessarily - Lose the last comma, the one before "not".
  • the film career of his brother - He's not mentioned before, so maybe the film career of his brother Gaston?
  • Same for his mistress and first wife --> his mistress and first wife, Jehanne d'Alcy. And maybe the link could just blue the name.
    Whoops, "mistress" and "first wife" intended to refer to different people. Now with both names included, this is much clearer. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 22:21, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • as a chapter of Early Cinema: Space, Frame, Narrative - Maybe it's worth saying the book was edited by Thomas Elsaesser?

  • finds that he criticized colonialism that results from an obsession with quicker modes of transportation - I think there's something wrong there.
    To be more nuanced, Ezra believes that, in a time when new forms of transportation were prospering, his films satirized the resulting prejudice, colonial expansion, and minset of "conquering the unknown". Most famously, the astronomers in A Trip to the Moon, as taken from its article, are presented as bumbling pedants merciless for Selenites.

I am nominating this for featured list because it is a very simple table, yet enables users to quickly find information. Do you want to see who were the (in)formateurs and scouts for a given formation, that's easy to spot right away. Do you want to know how many times Herman Tjeenk Willink has been (in)formateur, it is easy to sort. The longest serving informateur, also easy to sort. The lead gives a quick overview of what the roles are, and some facts that are relevant to the table. The table has references to easily accessible online resources as well as more detailed offline sources (where available). It is an essential part of my project to - in the long term - have decent articles about all Dutch cabinet formations, and I believe this specific part of my project is a suitable featured list candidate.

Thanks @Mattximus for the feedback. I realise I was too focused on historical background, without including information for those not familiar with the topic. I have rewritten the lead.

Certainly better, but the order is all mixed up after the first sentence. The list ends with scouts but the first sentences is scouts? Then goes back in time, then forwards in time? Still quite confusing, but improving. Mattximus (talk) 20:58, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lede
[edit]
  • "eighteen days later, the death toll reached 335" – should be "18 days later" per MOS:NUMERAL
  • Prime Minister Boris Johnson is discouraged per MOS:SEAOFBLUE; in the timeline there's the same problem with "Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak", "Education Secretary Gavin Williamson", "Home Secretary Priti Patel", "Leader of the Opposition Keir Starmer", "Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab", "leader of the House of Commons Jacob Rees-Mogg"...
  • I would maybe add in the lede that the rule of six introduced by the government was only in England (the other nations did have similar rules)
  • I would spell out the acronym "BYOB" somewhere (either in the lede or the body)
  • I would maybe add Johnson's resignation as Prime Minister and/or as an MP to the lede
  • You could link "civil servant" somewhere?
Lockdown parties
[edit]
  • 7 December 2020: "on Thursday" is a bit unhelpful as the days of the week aren't included in this list; could you give the date?
  • 11 December 2020: Is the price of the wine fridge relevant?
  • 16 December 2020: You spell out what tier 1 and tier 2 restrictions are called ("medium" and "high"), but not tier 3 ("very high")
The story breaks
[edit]
  • Maybe mention some Conservatives publicly calling for Johnson to resign over Partygate? e.g. [1] or [2]
  • 15 June 2023: I think the context that's missing here is that a 90-day suspension would be enough to trigger a recall petition and hence a by-election in Johnson's constituency
  • 19 June 2023: "354 to seven" should be "354 to 7" again per MOS:NUMERAL. I think there might be a couple more examples of this as well.
  • I think you could add the changes of Prime Minister as well? I don't think it would add too much space to say that Johnson was replaced by Truss, and then that Truss was replaced by Sunak (Johnson tried to run for the leadership again, but maybe that's too much detail). Otherwise it's maybe a bit surprising that it says the Conservatives were led at the election by Sunak (in the "Aftermath" section)?
Aftermath
[edit]
  • "the publication of the Gray report" – this is confusing because it's only the initial document that was published at this point, not the full report
  • "70% of respondents regarded Johnson as performing badly as prime minister, compared with 25% who felt that he was doing well"; I think this could do with some context on how he was regarded before the scandal broke (he was already unpopular, but not to this extent)
  • To be honest, I only mentioned that specific poll because Richard Hayton also made reference to it in his article on Johnson for Political Insight. Citing different YouGov polls and then using them to draw a conclusion about how Partygate affected Johnson's popularity feels like it might be skating a little too close to improper synthesis, but I'll see if I can find any third-party sources that come to those conclusions and then cite them. Thanks, A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 12:27, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Not an expert on British politics, but I'll give this a go. Disclaimer: Am an American, so feel free to ignore anything that is justified by AmE / BrE style differences if I accidentally perceive an oddity that's really fine.

Lede:

  • The first COVID-19 death in the UK occurred on 5 March 2020; 18 days later, the death toll reached 335. As a result, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that the UK would go into a full lockdown,

I'm not a fan of "as a result". Presumably some parts of the world went into lockdown without a single death, while other areas never really locked down seriously despite deaths? If we're being pedantic, it would be "As a result of the advice of medical experts consulted by the government" or the like, not necessarily the deaths. Perhaps "In response" instead? Or even just cutting the introductory clause entirely.

Changed to "in response". A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • London being placed in the "medium" tier 1 restrictions

This one isn't your fault, but this reads a bit weirdly to people not in the loop since "medium" was actually the mildest tier. I don't have any suggestions here as this seems relevant, but if you know of any friendlier ways to express this that still hit the main points, that'd be neat - but totally optional.

The only thing I can think to do is to remove the "'medium'" part so that it just says "tier 1". But that seems to me like removing useful information for our readers with no clear benefit. If another editor makes the same point, then I'll take it out. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SnowFire from the future: One overarching issue with all the historical stuff is making clear that this activity was a problem / scandalous. I guess the implication was that merely by appearing here at all, we're only talking about the "bad" parts, but I think we should be a little more blunt. Holding a party or playing loud music isn't a problem; it's holding a party indoors over size regulations that's a problem, but that's being hidden implicitly. It can weaken the "case" if anything, since someone might reasonably wonder what the big deal was, so I'd suggest making it clearer exactly how these parties were "bad".

Timeline:

  • 15 May: In the garden of Downing Street, an early evening cheese and wine party is held. Johnson and Health Secretary Matt Hancock both attend the gathering, which lasts for forty minutes to an hour.[12]

So what? This sounds like it complies with the rules at the time: the garden was outdoors and we've only listed two people attending. I presume the implication is that more people attended, but we should say so if that's the case. Unfortunately the reference doesn't seem to indicate that.

Clarified how many people attended. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 17 June: Emails are exchanged between Downing Street officials to prepare "drinks which aren't drinks"

The source doesn't explain either, but WTF was this email talking about? The polite reading would be "beverages which aren't alcoholic beverages" which seems too boring to bring up as a quote (they had mocktails, quelle horreur). So I presume this is really some British slang that I'm not familiar with that means something else that is scandalous, but what, then? Drugs?

They were having drinks, but they knew that doing so was likely against the rules at the time, so they were pretending that they weren't really having drinks, even though that's exactly what was happening. Hence, "drinks which aren't drinks" . A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 19 June: The event lasts for 20 minutes, and is attended by Case, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak, and others.

How many others? Sorry if I'm being repetitive here, but this seems like key information that the sources are inexplicably dropping. We're told that meetings of up to six people are allowed (although given the photo, this clearly wasn't outside, but we can presume that there might be an exception if the PM was on the job), so it's at least possible based on the description this was only a small party that complied with the rules. (I know that counting blurred heads from the lede photo suggests >6, but how much more, then?)

Added how many people attended. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Johnson's wife Carrie holds a second birthday gathering for her husband in their Downing Street flat that evening, with a number of friends

Same question here - if that number of friends was 4, then this could potentially be permissible. (If it's not known, can we at least assert it was "more than 6" or "in defiance of regulations"?)

Unfortunately, none of the sources I can find can be anymore specific that just saying the party was attended by "several" friends. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 14 September: To restrict a potential second wave of COVID-19 in the UK, the government restricts social gatherings again by implementing a new "rule of six" in England – groups of more than six people are banned from meeting in England, either indoors or outdoors.

A little confused here - weren't we still at 6 from the 1 June regulations? Are we missing a bullet point that eased things further after 1 June but before 14 Sept? Also, as a nit, I'd say "hinder a potential second wave" to avoid the close repetition.

From 1 June, people could meet outside (but not inside) in groups of six, but, from 14 September, groups of six couldn't meet either outside or inside. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 11 December: Johnson's staff smuggle a wine fridge through the back door of Downing Street.

I'm not saying to remove this, but this is weird. Johnson was PM. Couldn't he just ask a wine fridge be installed normally, through the front door? (And isn't it possible he was just using it to get blasted personally, not holding parties with it? I know that later on it says the fridge was indeed used for parties, and we should be chronological as a timeline, but maybe some sort of hint as to the problem here.) I see the source uses the term "smuggle", but also that the Mirror is a Labour tabloid. Do other sources agree that "smuggling" is the term to use here?

I can't really find any other sources that use "smuggle", so I've replaced it with "bring". As you say, the reporting of the fridge is significant later in the timeline, so I do think it's important to mention it chronologically here.

  • 14 December: A Christmas party—formally called a "Jingle and Mingle"...

Same problem here. The police issued fines so clearly this was in violation of the regulations, but we don't actually say the party was in violation of the regs. Should add that it was indoors and had (NUMBER) attendees or the like.

  • 15 December: Ellwood attends a Christmas party of 27 people

Does BrE have a way to quickly denote party affiliation? He's only been introduced as an MP from Bournemouth East before - at first I assumed this was a Labour / LibDem / SNP guy and thus was wondering if this was a broader scandal than just the Tories. (In US politics, people are sometimes introduced like "Jim Inhofe (R-OK)" as shorthand.)

Specified that he was a Conservative MP. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 15 December: A Christmas quiz is held at Downing Street. Most staff dial-in online from their homes, though some attend in person.

Same issue. I checked the source and I guess that the mere fact it appears there suggests something shady happened, but no numbers. I dunno, maybe I'm off-base here, but there's a huge difference between "4 people attend in person" and "40 people attend in person". The first isn't a scandal, the second is, so we should make clear it's the second case.

  • 16 December: (...) Johnson announces at a press conference that, from today, the city will move into tier 3 restrictions.

  • 16 December: A Christmas gathering is held for staff at the Department for Transport, with food and alcohol being served.[40]

  • A Christmas party is held for Case's staff at the Cabinet Office. Twelve staff attend online, but five join in the office.

Optional: This might be blazingly obvious from context, but precisely because it's so relevant here, maybe "the office, indoors." here? Since five was technically allowed within even the Tier 3 restrictions, it just had to be outdoors in a park or the like.

Done. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 17 December: ...and background music played

Was the background music particularly loud? For the "ABBA" party, the music was relevant because it was loud and suggested a big party rather than a small one when the numbers were unknown. But as written, this could be a tasteful recording of a string quartet playing Mozart or something.

Removed. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • 9 April: At Windsor Castle, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and husband of Queen Elizabeth II,

Optional nit from an American: I see that Prince Philip's article is actually at "Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh", but he's just called "Prince Philip" (especially in the context of 2021). As is, it reads like a parenthetical clause explaining Prince Philip, except his role as "Duke of Edinburgh" was completely irrelevant and ceremonial and distracting here. So I'd personally recommend either just "Prince Philip" or "Prince Philip, husband of Queen Elizbeth II, (...)". But up to you.

  • 12 January: Speaking at PMQs, Johnson admits that he attended the BYOB party on 20 May 2020, and apologises. Starmer calls on him to resign.

Was this a "notable" call for resignation? I may be jaded by post-2017 US politics but the "other" party here tends to throw these kind of requests out rather casually (see https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/joe-biden/republicans-call-biden-resign-ending-2024-campaign-rcna162923 for the opinion of our Speaker of the House, which I'm sure was taken under deep consideration and then circular-filed by Biden - not really an important or serious political thrust). If Starmer saying this was indeed a Big Deal, it's fine, just double-checking.

This was, as far as I'm aware, the first time that Starmer called on Johnson to resign, hence its significance. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • 14 January: (...) describes its being used by Downing Street staff for gatherings—called "Wine Time Fridays"—every Friday afternoon during the pandemic

Can we add the word "large" or "non-compliant" or the like before gatherings, or some other modifier to make clear that these weren't <6 people matters?

Added in "non-COVID-compliant". A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The 2023 & Aftermath sections look good to me. Overall, it's an impressive work - the main nits above are to add a few more attendee numbers in when possible on how big these parties were and verifying that they weren't compliant (e.g. indoors), and will be happy to support.

[edit]

Nice work on this list by both of you. I added col headers while this list was still in draft, but was reverted as "not needed". I'd think all tables should have col headers, but couldn't find any guidnance on this and would like to hear other's thoughts. Queen of Hearts (talk) 02:01, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm. So, typically both row and column headers are required, but also typically the tables are more complex than two columns. Working through "how does it sound with a screen reader", the 'Attested replacement words' table is fine- it reads like "Menstruation. Menstruation: bleeding, shark week", so it's pretty clear that it's standard term: alt terms. For the 'Medical terminology' table... I think it's fine? It honestly works a bit better audibly than visually, where it sounds like "term: alt1, alt2, alt3. term2: alt4, alt5, alt3", so the repeats/merged cells on the right are clear. Visually, it's a little messy- you typically want the combined cells to be on the left and get more diffuse as you go across to the right, but the genitals/gonads combos make that messy, and column headers wouldn't make that better. I guess what I'm saying is: I think in this case it's okay to not have column headers. --PresN 14:27, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Source check by CursedWithTheAbilityToDoTheMath

[edit]

I will be doing a source check for this article. I will update this as I check. To be comprehensive I'm going to break down my source check by section and also include any sources I could not access.

Section Status Sources I couldn't access Comments
Context Verified None I just want to ask for clarification regarding the statement "Prior to the 2010s, there was little research on the social aspects of transgender bodies". I'm assuming you got the year 2010 from the sources cited in the reference you gave. I just want to make sure that I'm not missing something here. Otherwise I was able to access and verify all the sources used
Yes, that's per Edelman and Zimman's description of the state of the art at the time they wrote their paper (2014). -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe) 02:30, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bellwether, Mira (2013). Fucking Trans Women: A Zine About the Sex Lives of Trans Women. CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform. ISBN 9781492128939.

I'm not able to verify the statement "Some transmasculine people refer to their clitorises as a dick or cock" from either of the sources listed in ref 9. Fielding 2021 does discuss alternative terms for the vulva but doesn't reference the clitoris or list dick or cock as alternative terms.

Ref 10 cites Zimman 2014, pp. 14–15 which doesn't exist as the reference provided for Zimman 2014 cites pages 673–690. I think you mixed this up with the Zimman 2011 source as it verifies the information present. The statement "at the time Zimman documented its usage in 2014" isn't verified either for the same reason. If you did mean to use the Zimman 2011 source then this also needs to be changed from 2014 to 2011.

In re ref 9, I have added a cite to Zimman 2014. In re [what was previously] ref 10, I think you might have the sources mixed up? If you click on "Zimman 2014", it'll take you to (Terminology of transgender anatomy#CITEREFZimman2014), which is the one paginated 1–24. Edelman & Zimman 2014 is 673–690, but is not what I'm trying to cite there. And there is no Zimman 2011. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe) 02:30, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed a couple statements had refs to sources that don't actually back up what's being said.

Support on prose. I've read this list quite closely twice over. I've got nothing. I did make a bold attempt at a minor capitalization fix, but the original turned out to be in line with one of MOS's nooks and crannies with which I was unfamiliar. Excellent work, Tamzin and Generalissima. For what it's worth, if either of you have the time or interest, I have a rather old FLC that could still use some feedback.

Airship

[edit]

This seems quite far away from a list to me. A couple of embedded lists in an article does not mean it becomes a stand-alone list, which is FL is for. As a comparison, none of the five "Terminology of..." articles I just spotchecked are classified as lists. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 12:23, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AirshipJungleman29: I'm coming at this from a different direction than you or my coäuthor. I do think it's a list, but not for quite the reason that Generalissima does. The relevant variable isn't the amount of prose, but rather to what extent does the article serve to list things rather than describe them. A list should be about the breadth of examples more than the depth of context. A list should be more about the items in the set than the set itself.
Apart from the lede and the Context section, both of which have the standard amount of prose for an FL, most of the rest of the prose in the article is still devoted to the act of listing things, not to exploring the overarching subject in depth. Most of the prose in §§ Colloquial terminology and Medical terminology is devoted to pulling out specific examples from the tabled lists and discussing them in greater detail. By my count, both sections have about 100 words each that discuss the set rather than the items within them. The prose in these sections constitute lists just as much as the tables do. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe) 03:49, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"The prose in these sections constitute lists just as much as the tables do." that is fundamentally altering the definition of a standalone list on Wikipedia, viz. "articles composed of one or more embedded lists, or series of items formatted into a list". It's an interesting thought, but just not how lists currently work.
"most of the rest of the prose in the article is still devoted to the act of listing things, not to exploring the overarching subject in depth" this is the case for most articles. Biographies are devoted to listing the events of lives (in chronological order). It would be a bit odd if I were to slap a timeline at the end of each section of Tolui and say "Most of the prose ... is devoted to pulling out specific examples from the timelines and discussing them in greater detail"—why look at it like this, and not the reverse, the default way?
"By my count, both sections have about 100 words each that discuss the set rather than the items within them." and added to the 200 words in the context section that's more than half the prose? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 12:51, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't really follow your logic. The thing that makes it a list is that it is primarily devoted to listing things, and there's nothing in any guideline giving another definition. If we want to wikilawyer this, then from WP:SAL there's Glossaries are usually titled Glossary of X or Glossary of X terms, though if they contain substantial non-list prose about the nature or history of terminology relating to the topic, as well as a glossary list, a title such as X terminology may be more appropriate. So that's the controlling guideline, the one that WP:FLCR incorporates by reference, saying that this kind of article is a list. If you want to open up a general discussion of whether a list can have too much prose to count as a list, then I think that's reasonable, although per Generalissima it might lead to a few existing FLs getting delisted. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe) 17:21, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For what it's worth, I'm inclined to agree with Tamzin on this being a list. It's not a traditional one, but it is still an article with the intent of listing relevant terminology. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:26, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • "The appointed head of government is typically the leader of the political party with the most seats in the Landtag or a coalition of parties, but is not required to be a member of the Landtag themselves, although they should meet the eligibility requirements for that office." - source for all this?
  • "The title was changed to 'Governor'" - what was it before, then? You don't say......
  • "People are numbered according to periods served by the same person. For example, Carl von In der Maur served as State Administrator twice in two non-consecutive terms, yet is still counted as the second" - this doesn't really make sense as written. Change it to "People are numbered according to periods served by the same person. For example, Carl von In der Maur served as State Administrator twice in two non-consecutive terms, but is counted only once"

Since my other Crimea list FLN has gotten supports and FLNs generally take time, going ahead and nominating this one now to get it started. This list's content is already somewhat prepared, with a lot of it being indirectly reviewed in the past successful FLNs for list of cities in Donetsk Oblast and Luhansk Oblast as well as the ongoing FLNs for Zaporizhzhia Oblast and Crimea. Together with Mykolaiv Oblast, Kherson and Mykolaiv oblasts are the only oblasts with less than 10 cities so these lists will likely be somewhat shorter than the rest. That said, considering List of cities in New Brunswick was recently able to pass FLN even with only its eight cities, I'm fairly confident that this (and eventually the Mykolaiv list) will be able to be promoted too. Thanks in advance to everyone for all the feedback and excited to continue the series! :) Dan the Animator 20:02, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Settlements with more than 10,000 people are eligible for city status although the status is typically also granted to settlements of historical or regional importance - Probably a comma missing before "although".
  • the regional capital Kherson, --> the regional capital, Kherson,
  • from its previous name Tsiurupynsk for Tsiurupynsk's connection - I would leave it like this: "from its previous name, Tsiurupynsk, for its connection"
  • including the capital Kherson, --> "including the capital, Kherson,"

Comments by CMD

[edit]

For the director/delegates, I reviewed the Donetsk and Luhansk noms so I don't know how much novel thought I'm bringing here, but anyway.

  • Is "typically" in "typically granted" the right word? What Ukrainian word is being translated for that?
  • The phrasing's mine based on the information from the sources, not that it's worded that way in any of the Ukrainian refs (the All About Accounting ref (#4) lists the considerations that are used for granting city status under "Стаття 2. Утворення (ліквідація) населених [...] категорії" while the Ukraina Moloda specifies the general 10,000 population benchmark that allows for automatic city status). It was supposed to emphasize that the status is flexible and has been given to a lot of places that aren't necessarily all the same. After giving it more thought tho, I just removed the word "typically" since it doesn't really add much and it looks like it would probably need an additional source imo. Just in case, let me know if you think it should be re-added.
That said, I'm also starting to wonder now, do you think the sentence should be reworded to include more of the considerations listed on ref #4? There's a lot of considerations and when wording the sentence, I tried to make it so it would get the general idea across but I could reword it to say Settlements with more than 10,000 people are eligible for city status, although the status is also granted based on a number of other considerations. and add in an efn note listing all the considerations from ref #4. Another option too is to leave the wording as-is and add an efn note saying something along the lines Since the enactment of new administrative laws in 2020, the factors considered by the Verkhovna Rada are.... Personally think its fine as-is but interested to know your thoughts.
The issue with relying too much on Article 2 of the source is that it seems generically associated with all settlement types. Article 10 (and 12 I guess) do not mention them. Transitional note 4 is perhaps more key as it grandfathers in city statues. I think keeping it at a brief mention as currently done works well, absent a secondary source doing analysis on the law. CMD (talk) 15:43, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "official census", is there a need to specify "official"? It begs the question of an unofficial census.
  • Yes, the wording is necessary and very intentional. The 2022 estimates are often times referred to as Ukraine's "unofficial census" and I think there have been some privately led attempts at collecting census information across Ukraine since 2001. The 2001 census is also the only traditional census by the government that's been held across the entirety of independent Ukraine so it's important to emphasize the importance of the census and why its numbers are used in the lead instead of the more recent 2022 estimates.
  • Not sure the "As of 11 July 2023" note is needed, but won't oppose due to it.
  • Thought it'd be a good idea to have in case there's another government-held census in Ukraine sooner than later.
  • "...for its connection...", subject of "its" is unclear. Maybe "...due to the previous name's connection...".
  • I think saying "the previous name" twice makes the sentence sound a bit too repetitive (Oleshky, was renamed in 2016 from its previous name, Tsiurupynsk, due to the previous name's connection with). Maybe there's another way to phrase it with less repetition? I'm okay also with making the change but I think it'd be preferable to not have it that repetitive.
  • What about adjusting the start of the sentence to explain "decommunization" there, eg. "Following the passing of decommunization laws aimed at removing names with connections to people, places, events, and organizations associated with the Soviet Union, one city within the oblast, Tsiurupynsk, was renamed Oleshky in 2016." CMD (talk) 15:43, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Would suggest starting a new paragraph at "From independence in 1991...", seems a separate topic.
  • I tested it out but I think it makes the lead appear too long for its amount of text. As it reads right now, the whole 2nd paragraph is about the Russian invasion and its effects while the first paragraph is the general information so I think the organization is alright imo.
  • Speaking of which, "From independence in 1991..." does not seem correct, some or all of the cities (at least Kakhovka) may have had that status prior to 1991 as there was administrative continuity through the breakup of the Soviet Union. "Prior to 2020..." may handle the relevant information for this article's purposes.
  • Used "Prior to.." wording. Thanks! :)
  • Is the Kakhovka Dam sentence relevant here?
  • I think so since the flooding had a heavy impact on the cities but I'm also open to taking it out if there's a compelling case for it.
  • Given the events of 2022, it is probably worth specifying the table population estimates are from January (ie, pre-invasion) 2022.
  • Added in an efn note but would appreciate some help in rewording/phrasing it right (its footnote e).
  • Is there a general statement that can be added to the lead regarding why the populations just dropped across the board from 2001 to 2022?
  • Working on it... The population drops are for the same reasons of demographic decline in the rest of Ukraine before the war and other Eastern European countries (mostly economic stagnation, lack of jobs/opportunities, and political disfunction). Will add another reply when ready with the edits.

Impressive that the estimate for Oleshky was one off the 2001 census. CMD (talk) 07:45, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's because the estuary has almost entirely dried up and has essentially turned into a salt field (1, 2), which could be classified as a type of a desert.

The caption could have a bit more than just the name of the architect. I notice now, as well, that this list is probably a translation of the Spanish one?

Well, that is definitely not a full sentence. I reckon that's pretty obvious. You can find more information regarding those issues in WP:CAPTION.

This is the list of governors of Nigeria's state of Edo from when the region was called Mid-Western renamed to Bendel and then splitted into Edo and Delta, this is focusing on Edo. I have significantly worked on this and think it meets the criteria for FL. This list looks very similar to other lists of governors. Feedbacks would be greatly appreciated. This would be part of the ongoing Developing Countries Wiki Contest which I am participating in. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 02:15, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
MPGuy2824
  • The party colors in the Edo state table make no sense without a legend. Alternatively, you can move the party color next to the party name and skip the legend.
  • When images aren't there for a particular person, you can add a centered emdash.
  • Some of the refs are missing archive links.
  • In order to avoid cluttering the table with references, you could move them all to a new column at right-end of the table.
  • Every image should have alt text. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:13, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @MPGuy2824 Please can you suggest how I can add a legend? Where to place it? templates I can use? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:52, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    If you are going with that option, you can either use {{Legend}} or just a normal table. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:55, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @MPGuy2824 Oh, I think there's no need for that. Because I just put the colours before the party names. That makes sense now. Do you think the table is currently cluttered with refs right now? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:02, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I just put the colours before the party names Yup, no need to add a legend now.
    Do you think the table is currently cluttered with refs right now? I had noticed refs in quite a few columns at the time, but now I see that each ref is supporting a particular piece of data. I think this is fine as is. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:07, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @MPGuy2824 Hi there, pinging as you did not seem to practically vote on this :) Vanderwaalforces (talk) 23:44, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Some things to be fixed:
    • "executive functions, while the Governor's role" => "governor"
    • "George Agbazika Innih and Husaini Abdullahi later served as military governors." This line isn't needed at the end of the Mid-Western Region section, since they are rightly mentioned in the next section.
    • "Following the administrative changes"
    • "and local governments under the regime of General Murtala Mohammed" add a comma after governments.
    • "style="height:2em;" isn't really needed since the photos take up more space than that anyway.
    • "first military governor of the newly Edo State." or "newly formed"
    • "Oversaw the transition period following Ogbemudia's administration."
    • "Brief return to civilian rule under the umbrella of the National Party of Nigeria before the 1983 military coup." Use brackets (or commas) before and after the phrase "under the umbrella of the National Party of Nigeria"
    • "The 15 January 1966, military coup" Eliminate the comma.
    • Wikilink "Dimka"
    • User:Lingzhi2/reviewsourcecheck-sb.js is showing some seemingly fixable issues with the references.
    -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:22, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @MPGuy2824 I cleared all now, except that the second entry in the "Sources" section is showing "Missing archive link" even though I do not have a URL parameter, I'm sure it is misinterpreting the DOI as one.
    Thank you very much for spotting these :) Vanderwaalforces (talk) 17:54, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • 'style="height:2em;" isn't really needed' - you've ignored this one, but I hadn't mentioned that it was mandatory.
    • Link to "Dimka" in the footnotes. - It might be better to link directly to the relevant section (Participation in the 13 February 1976 Coup and death) of the article.
    Support based on prose and table accessibility. Supporting in advance, since I'm sure you'll fix the last point. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:19, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SnowFire

Nice work. However, I'm not so certain on the prose. I made some sample edits to the lede that you should feel free to adjust to try to "tell a story" more, as the old lede bounced around in time. In general, it's not good to replicate the table in prose - it's better to indicate something that isn't already in the table, ideally, rather than just name-drop people. A few other questions:

  • Was Osadebay's title really "Civilian Premier"? https://nigeriareposit.nln.gov.ng/items/fd2b27ce-45c7-4a60-9459-afcd4fc9a566 just calls him "premier" and that seems an unusual title.
  • Similarly, it'd be one thing if this was only post-1991 leaders, but being that the earlier pre-1991 stuff is included... the obvious starting point seems like it'd be independence, but the article doesn't discuss 1960-1963 at all. How was the region organized in that period? Even if the answer is "as an insignificant part of a much larger unit" or "not at all", it would still be good to mention what structure did exist.
  • Feel free to restore if it's a quirk of Nigerian English, but I don't think "civilian" titles are used typically on Wikipedia per MOS:CREDENTIAL. It's fine to mention military titles mostly to quickly signify the role was military, but "Prof." or "Dr." is more questionable unless it's also a COMMONNAME.
  • Why is "Deputy governors represented the same party as their governor." a footnote to the Deputy column? That seems like something more for prose in the table introduction to explain the role of Deputy Governor.
  • First, I'm not sure the birth & death dates for governors is really relevant to include at all, but I know lots of similar lists include it, so if you want to include it that's fine. That said... I'm not a fan of ???? for unknown dates. Just omit them, IMO (but feel free to push back if this is in fact the standard). And is Baba Adamu Iyam really dead at an unknown year? His article suggests he is alive. SnowFire (talk) 07:12, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SnowFire
  • I removed the Civilian
  • I am confident that this list is as concise and inclusive as it should be right now. I don't want to come up with information I have no source for. Which is why I am sticking to information from sources that are available.
  • This is okay by me.
  • Please can you explain further what you mean?
  • I could omit the birth/death dates that are unknown, but I don't think it is not really necessary to not include their birth/death dates at all. I have seen similar lists in formats like this. Iyam's article does not suggest he is alive, his death date is unknown.
Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:46, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is there really no information on how the 1960-1963 Western Region was governed and who by? I get that sourcing can be tough for these topics, but I don't really see a reason why the chart should start in 1963 but not 1960, so this seems a clear gap. If the records were lost or the region really was in chaos and had no governor, then fine, we can say so ("the governors of the Western Region in 1960-63 are unknown"), but that seems like it'd be surprising if really true.
  • I don't feel like the Deputy Governor party footnote makes the most sense as a footnote rather than prose. If you disagree, that's fine, it's not mandatory, but I would suggest explaining the Deputy Governor in the prose introduction is preferred if it's going to be included in the table. This can include the way they're elected and why they usually match the party of the Governor.
  • The guideline is that for anyone who would be older than 115, if there isn't an explicit source saying they're alive, we assume they're dead. But otherwise, we assume they're alive, because falsely reporting someone as dead is much worse than falsely assuming a dead person is alive. So maybe ???? is fine for people born in 1909 and before in charts, but we should use "born 19XX" or "b. 19XX" when it's unknown. (And Iyam's article has no death date listed and has him in Category:Living people?). If you have a source saying Iyam is dead, then let's update his article, but if we're not sure on his status, we should default to only showing the known birth date and no marking implying a death date.
  • There are still some prose concerns. I suppose I can just make the changes myself but see the example on the lede - the body still has stuff like "Prof. Oserheimen Osunbor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole," without it being clear that these are COMMONNAME titles. SnowFire (talk) 17:01, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Checking in again. You wrote " I don't want to come up with information I have no source for." but I really don't think these are THAT hard to find sources on. While there are premiers in this list, it looks like there was both a governor AND a Premier in the Western Region of the time. It looks like Adesoji Aderemi was governor 1960-63, while Samuel Ladoke Akintola was Premier of the Western Region in 1960-1962. Some sort of political crisis broke out in 1962 and Akintola was dismissed by Aderemi. The WP article says he was dismissed due to a declaration of emergency and M. A. Majekodunmi was sent on a temporary basis (sourced to "The Fate of Africa" p.193, which isn't that expensive as an e-book - maybe more there? I don't have access.). This contemporary 1962 news article suggests that Dauda Soroye Adegbenro sought to become Premier, but a court blocked it (unclear if it stuck) and tried to restore Akintola. But this was just from a quick surface-level search. This suggests that there are surely deeper sources if the basics aren't that hard to find. Unless there is some other reason to exclude the material?
  • On death dates, this is something that I'm more insistent on. "born 1942" suggests just that, a birth date, but "1942-????" implies an unknown death date very clearly to me. SnowFire (talk) 03:41, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @SnowFire Hi there, I have made significant cleanup per the COMMONNAME titles. I have also a subsection called Western Region you can take a look at, based on your recommendations above. Also did some MOS fixes to the dates. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 23:30, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • (de-indent) Sorry, it looks like I phrased my comment unclearly above. What I meant was not literally "19XX", but rather the actual appropriate date for when the birthdate is known but the death date is unknown. For example, if someone was born in 1943 but we aren't sure when or if they died, we should write "born 1943" or "b. 1943". Checking, MOS:APPROXDATE does not include any guidance for when everything is unknown, but I presume omitting is the default. I remain firmly opposed to any form of an end date with ???? (or 19XX) when we aren't sure whether they're dead at all.
  • As I wrote above, to be clear, I wasn't complaining about the military titles. That said I won't complain given that you've removed most of them, the above complaint was on stuff like "Prof." or "Comrade" without evidence of a common name. (If it's a common name like "Mother Teresa" then feel free to just say so.)
  • Question: Did you get access to "The Fate of Africa", or AGFing it? Because I was just offering that reference from elsewhere on Wikipedia to investigate, if you were depending on me here.
  • I'm still not happy with the prose in parts, but just going to edit it myself. One area I didn't edit - The Mid-Western Region's administrative history is relevant to the formation and early governance of Edo State - this seems taunting. How is it relevant? You're leaving the reader hanging! Can you explain what is meant here, or rephrase? I made my changes in this diff, feel free to speak up if I erred in here. SnowFire (talk) 21:53, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @SnowFire Oh yes, I got access to The Fate of Africa source. Thank you for your edit, I ended up removing that statement entirely. Thank you. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 23:38, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • "a state presidents is tasked"
 Fixed
  • "including the appointment and coordination of leaders at various levels viz" - What is that supposed to mean? I don't understand the "viz" at the end.
 Fixed
  • "District committee, block committee and for each panchayat development block or panchayat samiti." - Is that sentence missing a verb or something?
 Fixed
  • "As of now" reads a bit vague.
 Fixed
  • "the INC has state and UT presidents for all states and union territory in India" - If I'm not mistaken, there are several union territories in India, so why say "union territory"?
 Fixed
  • Conversely, the abbreviation in the second table should read "Union territory" instead of "Union Territories", as there's only one in each row.
 Fixed
  • In the tables, the name of the incumbent should be moved to the second column, leaving the portrait for the third one.
 Fixed
  • Could anything be said about those vacancies?
Actually their appointment date is not available at this time. Hence, I have added a note.
  • All the article titles read like this: "X Pradesh Congress Committee". Why then, in the tables, do we sometimes have "Andhra Pradesh" and sometimes just "Assam"?
 Fixed

Comment

[edit]
  • How come you used so many external links for sources for some of these tables? The international tables, except for the cancelled international competitions, are all pointing to external sources instead of following the format (references in that row instead) used by the rest of the article
  • Date formats are inconsistent in references, consider adding {{Use mdy dates|July 2024}} to the top of the article under the short description
  • Inconsistent linking of works in references, an example of this is
  • Access dates missing for a number of sources
  • Links should be archived once the bot is back up
  • A number of references use "ISU results" as the website and "International Skating Union" as the publisher. It makes more sense to use just "International Skating Union"
  • Some refs need to be downcased, such as 74, 76, and 77, so the names are not entirely capitalized
  • A lot of these references to social media posts are dead with no archive link available, such as refs 7, 10, 16, and 24

  • 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.

Those are the things that caught my attention in a first read, TonyTheTiger. Kind regards, Alavense (talk) 10:40, 20 August 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]
Do you have a suggestion for the first sentence because I am not seeing the confusion.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 10:27, 28 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]

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.

It's fine, I think it's clear that they're associated with the previous column. A more specific name could be nice, but I couldn't think of a short one. --PresN 16:52, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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

[edit]

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:

Detailed explanation of (potential) reliability of Further reading texts
  1. According to Theo Aronson's obituary in The Independent, he authored many texts on European royalty, including Napoleon and Queen Victoria. (As an aside, Aronson's obituary was written by Hugo Vickers, who was educated as a King's Scholar at Eton College and has himself written royal biographies, including one on Princess Alice of Battenberg and another on Prince Edward, Duke of Kent) Moreover, Aronson's obituary notes that his specific work on Christian IX's descendants that I cited has been described by Steven Runciman as "readable, judicious and well-informed". Even if Aronson's reliability is borderline, Runciman's opinion carries weight in the former's favor: the latter was educated at Eton College (like Vickers), a history scholar at Trinity College, Cambridge, and above all, extensively wrote on the history of the Crusades, which Cambridge University Press considers "one of the great classics of English historical writing".
  2. It appears that Anna Lerche (now Anna von Lowzow) is a film director (link in Danish), and Marcus Mandal is a movie director as well. However, their work on Christian IX's descendants that I cited has been made into a documentary that was shown by the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR), as noted in this DR press release (link in Danish, you will need a DR subscription to view the English translation). Mandal's online information also notes that said documentary was shown in over 150 countries. Moreover, while I am unsure if this affects reliability, Lerche and Mandal's work is also publicly available online (link in Danish) via the Nota bibliotek, a library run by the Danish Ministry of Culture to make texts available to people with disabilities.
  3. Finally, I cited Beéche and Hall 2014 in the "Further reading" section. As Beéche's biography notes, he has a degree in history from San Diego State University (SDSU), and his honors thesis was chosen as the best history thesis written at SDSU in 1992. Moreover, Beéche has founded Eurohistory, which has, among other topics, published books on the dynastic connections of the Russian imperial family, the Grand Ducal Family of Luxembourg, and a memoir written by Andreas, Prince of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha himself. With respect to Hall, according to her publisher Amberley Publishing, she is a historian that has written on Russian and British royalty and contributes to Majesty Magazine. Furthermore, Hall's publisher has sponsored the (United Kingdom's) National History Book Competition.

Although I personally believe these backgrounds on the authors sufficiently qualify the topic for a Wikipedia article, I will leave it to this page's consensus to see if this is truly the case. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 17:31, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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]
I have removed all of the self-published sources in the article that I could find, and I have replaced the citations with references to more reliable sources. 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. Please let me know if that prose should be more comprehensive. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 00:07, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • 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.

I don't think a list should have "This article describes the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of Christian and Louise." at the end of the list

@48JCL: Could you please suggest how this sentence should be replaced? Per WP:SALLEAD, the inclusion criteria of a stand-alone list should make a direct statement about the inclusion criteria. This is the purpose of the text you quoted. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 16:51, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have rewritten that sentence to attempt to make the inclusion criteria as explicit as possible without actively self-referencing the article. Please let me know if I should further modify the text. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 23:59, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Issue with sources

I am noticing Blogspot and Wordpress being cited. What makes them reliable? More to come. 48JCL 12:12, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have replaced the Blogspot and WordPress sources. That being said, my rationale for including them was that the specific authors appeared to have professional credentials in their field. AndrewPeterT (talk) (contribs) 16:21, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but that does not exactly make it reliable, still being a SPS. I'm still not sure whether or not this article should be supported, but thanks for addressing my concerns. 48JCL 17:58, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support from Dylan620

[edit]

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 • talkedits) 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:
Dylan620 (he/him • talkedits) 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 • talkedits) 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.
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 • talkedits) 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.

Everything looks good to me now, Andrew, and I'm happy to support on prose and images. For what it's worth, I believe this would be the first geneology FL if promoted. Dylan620 (he/him • talkedits) 22:48, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Placeholder

[edit]
  • 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]

Nominations for removal

[edit]
Notified: Yashthepunisher, WikiProject Awards, WikiProject Film/Film awards task force

I am nominating this for featured list removal because it lacks context and more (you can check at the talk page) GeniusTaker (talk) 13:23, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notified: Jamie jca, WikiProject Television

Unfortunately I feel that several older 30 Rock items are failing modern standards. I am beginning here as I feel it is a clear cut example. I am nominating this for featured list removal because I feel that it fails criterias 3 and 5. It lacks a development section as detailed in MOS:TVPRODUCTION. The awards section features no prose and points to a separate list which covers other content in addition to season one. Adtionally neither a caption nor alt text is provided when needed. Lastly a possible style problem with the relevent episodes not being linked in the cast section. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 17:26, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Remove I've said a time or two that most season articles should actually be a process for WP:FAC and not FLC. I do understand that a large majority of these are were promoted quite a while ago, and that in recent times, they gone through the proper channels, but I also wouldn't be against a mass exodus of these articles as FL's. They tend to follow the format of a standard article more that of a list. Anyhow, within this "list" specifically: as the initial commenter stated, I'm largely noticing a lack of compliance with MOS:TV in the case of article layout, listing the number of episodes characters appeared in, and poorly written episode summaries that feel more like promotional taglines than they do summaries. There's also just a few general MOS failures, such as WP:BLUESEA violations and the use of {{Quote box}}. I'd be more inclined to leave a full review if I see progress being made here. TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:56, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hmm... potential hot take but I don't see any major issues. Sourcing seems fine, so I'm assuming the nomination is discussing FLCR #3(a) more than 3(b), and 3(a) is focused on including all key items in the set the list covers (which this does – it lists all of the episodes). A production section would be nice, but I don't interpret MOS:TVPRODUCTION as requiring one and I suspect a large portion of the information would just reiterate the cast and crew sections. An awards section that would just duplicate information from the show's full list of awards may not be necessary, either – just a few sentences added to cover its major awards (Emmys, Golden Globes, major guilds...). As to FLCR #5, I think the only issue mentioned is the images per 5(b) and 5(c), which can be easily addressed. Basically, I think the page does its job as a list. Whether season articles should be considered as lists or articles is a bit out of scope for this, at least to me. Please correct me if I've misunderstood the issues raised in the nomination.

    @OlifanofmrTennant: Would you mind clarifying a bit? Hey man im josh (talk) 14:12, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sure, a few sentences would be preferable over nothing for the awards. If you look at it as List of episodes it fits the requirements, but its more than a list of episodes. Future devolopement have raised the bar for what a season article should be and this list no longer meets those standereds. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 15:12, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Just pinging you because it was a while between your reply and the above and I wanted to make sure you saw it @RunningTiger123. Hey man im josh (talk) 09:02, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yep, thanks for the ping. I think a lot of the issues stem from the issue of seasons being split between GA/FA and FL, and while I'm fine with removing this FL if the consensus is that standards have increased, I think we're going to need a wider discussion about what season articles should include (i.e., are they primarily lists or articles?). RunningTiger123 (talk) 20:32, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @RunningTiger123: I agree that it's something that may need to be more ironed out, as there's also a similar issue with seasons of The Office. Perhaps this is a discussion that should be held at a wider location to determine whether season articles are better classified as lists or articles. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:46, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    For anyone interested, I started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Featured lists#FLs for television seasons on this topic. RunningTiger123 (talk) 19:47, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Given the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Featured lists#FLs for television seasons, I think this list should be delisted. If it could be moved to GA I'd be in favor of letting it be, but there are enough incomplete sections that I don't think that will happen. RunningTiger123 (talk) 21:56, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
