I am nominating this for featured list because it is comprehensive with sources for each individual entry in addition to general sources, explains the relationship between these two types of numbers, and is illustrated with pictures. Also, this would be just the third current FL of WP:WPM. I combined portions of List of perfect numbers (now histmerged into this article) and Mersenne prime to create this list (in addition to my own work). Please note that this is my first nomination for any type of good/featured content, so it is likely I may have missed one or two things, but I believe it meets all the criteria and may only need minor copyedits. eviolite (talk) 23:13, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comments by RunningTiger123
[edit]Overall, this is a really strong first FL nomination (and a really interesting one!). Just a few comments:
- The lead seems to mix
{{math}}
and<math>
– since the fonts are slightly different, try to pick one or the other.- According to WP:MATH:
Therefore, the common practice of most members of WikiProject mathematics is the following: Use of {{mvar}} and {{math}} for isolated variables and very simple inline formulas; Use of LaTeX for displayed formulas and more complicated inline formulas
. But I do understand that it looks a bit weird.. I've changed the singular use of<math>
to the {{math}} template. This equation is more complex than the other ones, so it's still a bit awkward, but is it better?
- According to WP:MATH:
- Lead uses lots of parentheses; try to remove some where possible
- Done
<sup>
or{{sup}}
should work in citation titles; try using that instead of "^"- Done
- Use "−" (minus sign) instead of "-" (hyphen) in equations
- Done by PrimeHunter
- Rename "General references (for all entries)" section heading as "General references" and adjust footnote (a) accordingly
- Done

- Tables need captions to allow screen reader software to 'jump' straight to them without reading out all of the text above them each time; add as the first line in the table `|+ caption_text`, or if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header you can make it only visible to screen reader software like `|+ {{sronly|caption_text}}`
- The column header cells need to be marked with `scope=col`, e.g. `! class="unsortable" | Rank` becomes `! class="unsortable" scope=col | Rank`, etc.
- The "primary" cell in each row needs to be marked with `scope=row` (e.g. `| align="right" | 1` becomes `!scope=row align="right" | 1`); this combined with the colscopes allows screen reader software to accurately read out the table as a data table. --PresN 01:39, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Image review — Pass
[edit]- Both the images used are licenced as "own work" under suitable licences, and have appropriate ALT text. Pass for image review. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:54, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Source review — Pass
[edit]- Version reviewed — 1
- Formatting
- Change "Ref" column from
! class="unsortable" scope=col | Ref
to! class="unsortable" scope=col | {{abbr|Ref.|References}}
(adding abbreviation).- Done
- All the citations under the "Ref" column need to be center aligned, using
align=center
. I have done one as an example. Repeat the same in all the reference cells.- Done
- Be consistent with linking the author or not. Either link all, or none. If you choose to link, please
- Ref#8 – Link Wagstaff, Samuel S.
- Ref#9 – Link Pomerance, Carl
- Ref#26 – Link Riesel, Hans
- Ref#28 – Link Gillies, Donald B.
- Ref#29 – Link Tuckerman, Bryant
- Ref#30 – Link Noll, Curt
- All done, also did some other ones.
- Be consistent with including publication location with books/journals. Few have (like Ref#13 - "Washington", Ref#14 - New York), while others don't. I'll suggest to remove all.
- Done, I think -- not sure about aliases of that parameter, so might have missed one
- Ref#6 – Needs a page number, or a page range.
- That book has no page numbers on Google Books, added chapter= instead
- Ref#15 – "O'Connor, John J," – there seems to be an erroneous comma after 'J'
- Done by Citation bot, added a period for consistency
- Ref#16 –
'Calendarium ecclesiasticum - BSB Clm 14908'
– Needs an endash (–) instead of a normal dash (-)- Done
- Ref#31 – Add URL access level as "limited"
- Done
- Ref#37 Change "Los Angeles Times" from "Publication" to "Name of publication"
- Done by Citation bot
- If all the sources mentioned in the §General references section apply to all the entries, why not merge them, and add them as a common source on the top of column (As done here). Do let me know if you want any help here.
- I've done this but please note that some of the sources miss out on a few entries due to age, I assume that's not really a problem though
- We do have individual sources for all entries. Definitely not a problem. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 12:12, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I've done this but please note that some of the sources miss out on a few entries due to age, I assume that's not really a problem though
- Reliability
- No issues. We do have few very old sources (1603), but majority of the sources are recent ones.
- that's a primary source -- the general refs (and any other source in the ref column) serve as secondary sources
- Verifiability
- Ref#32 – Can we have any identifier? Link? ProQuest ID?
- Ref#39, 41 – Same as above
- For all three: Added links. For Proquest: marked url-access as subscription. I'm not quite sure but it seems the Gale ones are accessible even when not logged in?

My life has been pretty busy the last few months, which greatly delayed the next list in my mammal series—not to mention the size of the list. But finally, following up on my 10-list series of Carnivora (carnivorans/felids/canids/mustelids/procyonids/ursids/mephitids/viverrids/herpestids/pinnipeds) comes a third list in Artiodactyla (cervids/suines): the 144 species of Bovidae, covering antelope, cows, gazelle, goats, and sheep. Basically just a ton of non-deer/pig/horse hooved animals in one giant family. This follows the pattern set by the previous 12 lists (and reviewer comments therein), so hopefully it's good to go. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 15:00, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Dank
- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- "Bovids range in size from the 38 cm (15 in) long (plus 5 cm (2 in) tail) royal antelope to the 3.3 m (10.8 ft) long (plus 0.7 m (2.3 ft) tail) gaur, which can reach 1,500 kg (3,300 lb) in weight.": The third sentence of text on a page shouldn't be this hard to parse. Move some words around, please.
- Took out the tails, it's just too much even besides the double-parenthesis
- I don't remember what we decided in one of my lists about, for instance, "Dorcatragus megalotis.jpg ... |image-alt=" ... will the screen-readers read that correctly?
- Alts shouldn't be missing, now added to the blank ones
- Checking the FLC criteria:
- 1. The prose is fine. There are no sortable columns. I sampled the links in the tables.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
- 3b. The article is well-sourced to reliable sources, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates in the first column are present.
- 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find), and it wouldn't fit easily inside another article.
- 4. It is navigable.
- 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
- 6. It is stable.
- Close enough for a support. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 02:05, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Dank: Fixed, thanks for reviewing! --PresN 02:27, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. I've had a look over this and the only thing I could raise is that endnote a doesn't seem to be cited; the information doesn't seem to be present in the IUCN source for B. bison, although perhaps I'm missing it elsewhere. Either way both the 500,000 farmed figure and the claim they're "almost universally" hybrids feel like claims which should be referenced, but that's all I have. 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 20:46, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Koi... Mil Gaya is one of the earliest science fiction films from India, with its star Hrithik Roshan receiving appreciation from the audience, critics, and award groups. The film is also popular in other countries, especially in my country Indonesia. I nominated this list because I believe it is comprehensive enough. --Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 07:18, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Photo caption needs a full stop

- "Rakesh Roshan also done its screenplay" => "Rakesh Roshan also created its screenplay"
- "Produced on a budget between" => "Produced on a budget of between"
- In the table, "Idhar Chala Mein" should disregard the quote marks and sort under I.

- First names also need to be considered – so "Hrithik" should sort before "Rajesh", which in turn should sort before "Rakesh"

- Source 23 is from Getty Images, which I highly doubt is relevant to this article
- I would not stack references vertically as they are currently listed in the table. When the table is sorted in any way, it splits merged cells, so the references makes each cell unnecessarily tall and limit how much can be shown. Instead, I would place the sources for each award next to each other horizontally, or if that would make the cell too wide, place them into a single ref tag as a list.

Comments from Dank
[edit]- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- There was an edit to the image size in August, prompted by a (correct) point made by an FLC reviewer, that had the effect of squeezing the table and creating a lot of white space. I think I've fixed it, but let me know if you don't like how it looks now.
- I checked sorting on all sortable columns; it's not a problem for me that the various Roshans are out of order ... sorting on last name only is fine by me ... but I'm bringing it up because some reviewers care about these things.
- I added "lk=on" to create a link to Indian rupee, but I haven't been keeping up on copyediting issues like I used to ... revert if that's not right.
- Checking the FLC criteria:
- 1. The prose is fine. I've done a little copyediting; feel free to revert or discuss. The table coding seems fine. I sampled the links in the table.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.

Well, here it is folks, it's taken four years and I now present the final list of yearly number-one country songs (until this year ends and I have to try and promote 2021). This will complete a set of 77 articles covering the number-one country songs of every year from 1944 to 2020. The final one covers the year in which Billboard first published the chart currently known as Hot Country Songs.

[edit]As good as we've come to expect, so just a few things...
- "first issue of 1958 " in the past, did we look at what the incumbent number one was heading into the year, i.e. in the remnant days of the previous issue (i.e. up to 5 January in this case), as strictly they were number one in 1958 too...
- "although he would remain popular in the 1960s he would not" passive, perhaps "although he remained popular ... he did not..."
- "by Marty Robbins. The separate" overlinked.
- Great Balls of Fire (not Of).
- "Ballad of a Teenage..." (not Of A)
- Not a single number one from a female artist....?
- Ref 2 I can't access without a sub.

- @The Rambling Man: - all done apart from "Not a single number one from a female artist....?" That's clearly the case (as was probably the case in many other years in the horrendously male-dominated country field) and I could add a sentence saying "All of 1958's country number ones were by male vocalists", but I don't have a specific ref for that factoid, and someone would probably claim it was OR without one, even though you can clearly see that all of the artists listed are/were men.

- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- I added the table captions PresN is requesting.
- I found and fixed one double redirect in the table, but I didn't check all the links.
- Checking the FLC criteria:
- 1. The prose is fine. I've done a little copyediting; feel free to revert or discuss. The table coding seems fine now. I checked sorting on all sortable columns.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
- 3b. The article is well-sourced to reliable sources, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any (actual) problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
- 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find), and it wouldn't fit easily inside another article.
- 4. It is navigable.
- 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
- 6. It is stable.
- Support. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 04:30, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Here is one more! I'm happy to keep working on the project of bringing all list of municipalities in Mexico to a high standard (10, nearly 11, states already have their municipality lists featured using this standardized format, along with dozens of other list of municipalities in North America). We have updated the information to reflect the most recent census and tried to incorporate changes from previous nominations. The page should be pretty standardized but there can always be improvements. Thanks to everyone who regularly reviews these lists! Mattximus (talk) 15:35, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
- The sub-column headers (km2, sq mi) need colscopes like the other column headers (e.g. scope=col). Colscopes, along with the rowscopes that are already there, allow screen reader software to accurately read out what column/row a bit of cell text is in, so you need them on all parts of a multi-part column header. Done
- Tables need captions (|+ <caption_text>, or |+ {{sronly|<caption_text>}} if that text would duplicate a nearby section header). Table captions allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables, without having to read all prior text to provide context. Done --PresN 20:47, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- In the last FLC I commented that it's weird to single out slaughterhouse regulation. Reading the constitution in source 4 ([8] 115.II), it says municipalities are responsible for Drinking water, drainage, sewerage, treatment and disposal of its wastewater; Public lighting; Cleaning, collection, transfer, treatment and final disposal of waste; Markets and supply centers; cemeteries; trails (can't tell best translation of rastro); Streets, parks and gardens and their equipment; Public security; and others. So even if the no-longer-accessible source 6 mentioned it among types of "Markets and supply centers" regulated, perhaps, I don't really think that should be called out in any of these articles, unless maybe another source gives the significance of this.

[edit]According to the 2020 Mexican Census, it is the nineteenth most populated state with 2,822,255 inhabitants and the 15th largest by land area
—Two points here; one is that we're mixing words (nineteenth) with numbers (15th). Either is fine but pick one and use it consistently, either nineteenth and fifteenth or 19th and 15th. Second, it would be useful to have context for these rankings, as it stands it takes clicking through several links to see that this is out of a list of 31 states. Could we either mention that here ("the nineteenth most populated of Mexico's 31 states, with 2,822,255 inhabitants") or earlier (San Luis Potosí is one of the 31 states of Mexico, located in North Central Mexico and divided into 58 municipalities")? DoneThe largest municipality by population is San Luis Potosí
I would lose the pipe here and retain "City" in the name, as it avoids ambiguity given that the state is linked using the same text. Done- The construction "largest by population" sees a lot of repetition, could we rephrase some of these for variety? "Most populous" would be an option. Done
- The section discussing the powers and governance of municipalities doesn't make it clear (to me at least) if this is how municipalities across the country function of it there's some differences state to state. Does this second paragraph in the lead apply to all states?
- I believe this is true for every state in Mexico at a minimum. There are bound to be local exceptions however.

Comments from BennyOnTheLoose
[edit]- History: This list shouldn't incoporate too much that should be in the main rankings article, but consider mentioning that for a while it was only the World Championship that carried ranking points. (Until the 1982 International Open, I believe).
- History: consider mentioning that (from 2014/15?) points were based on prize money. IMO that's quite a significant change.
- Periods: Feels to me like "Even though the rankings officially started in 1976, an Order of Merit was published in 1975 to determine the seedings for events. It used the same criteria that was used to determine the first set of official rankings the following year" should be incorporated into the History section rather than being introduced here.
- Periods: "criteria that was" - "criteria that were" (because criteria is a plural); or the following.
- Periods: "It used the same criteria that was used to determine the first set of official rankings the following year" feels a bit backwards, how about something like "The first set of official rankings the following year used the same criteria."?
- Ref ordering for Reardon ([11][4])
- Images: Consider and "as of" or different caption for the Selby pic, to avoid it becoming outdated when he loses the number one spot.
- External links: Isn't "Pro Snooker Blog" a website non grata (even tho' the author went on to work for the WPBSA)?
- "Rolling format (2010–present)" - reference is archived from August but says a calculation is "as of 11 September 2021"
- Consider adding https://wst.tv/rankings/ as an external link.

*I could be wrong on this (PresN might know better?) but I'm sure that the cell colour alone to denote the once-a-year updates is enough for a screenreader; consider adding something like a dagger or asterisk to allow it to be seen by more than just colour alone. I'd also move the key to before rather than after the table but that's not particularly important.

- Comments from Spaceflight before 1951 FLC
I haven't reviewed this list fully, but from my review of Spaceflight before 1951 for its FLC, there are several major issues that carry over to this list: namely, the table formatting and the use of Encyclopedia Astronautica. I've put a more thorough explanation there (link). RunningTiger123 (talk) 01:59, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @RunningTiger123: Answered at Spaceflight before 1951 :) Someone's going to have to tell me what to do with the table since it's a problem endemic to ALL of the timeline articles. And Wade should be just good enough. --Neopeius (talk) 03:13, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @RunningTiger123: Now that Before 1951 is in shape, I went through 1951 and made the same improvements (citation name order, flag fix, table fix, pie chart fix). Let me know if there's anything left to do. :)
- Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
- Now that the before 1951 list is sorted out, please copy over the structural changes from there- e.g. one table per section, instead of sections inside of the one table.
- Note the change I made at that list to add |caption={{sronly|<caption_text>}} into the table header template call- captions are needed in tables to allow screen reader software to jump to named tables; the {{sronly}} template makes it so that the text doesn't show up for visual browsers if it duplicates a nearby header.
- Note also the change I made at that list to the "by country" and "by rocket" tables at the bottom- there I added captions, colscopes, and rowscopes (which combined let screen reader software parse tables correctly/more easily), and that should be copied here. --PresN 21:33, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Per MOS:FLAG, "The name of a flag's political entity should appear adjacent to the first use of the flag, as no reader is familiar with every flag, and many flags differ only in minor details". None of the flags are ever accompanied by a country name, and (on my screen at least) what I eventually figured was the Soviet flag just looks like a red rectangle, not recognisable as a flag
- I'd appreciate some guidance on this. It was a non-issue in Spaceflight before 1951 because all three countries with flags were named in the infobox under "firsts" -- I can't see an elegant place to put country names (unless you're fine with me just squeezing them into the first table appearance)
- Could you stick a key at the top? Like this?
- That would work, I would have thought..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:21, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Image caption is not a complete sentence so should not have a full stop
- fixed.
- "11 total were launched during the year" - I have always been told not to start a sentence with a number written in digit form
- fixed with a semicolon.
- "Launched 7 August" - as a speaker of UK English I would say "Launched on 7 August", but I believe this usage might be OK in US English, can you confirm?
- It's goed Ingelsk to me...
- "six R-1s specifically designed equipped" => "six R-1s specifically designed and equipped"
- Fixed.
- "had been eclipsed since World War 2" => "had been eclipsed since World War II"
- Fixed
- Pipe SCORE (satellite) to hide the disambiguator
- Fixed
- "a process that was completed November 1953" - regardless of my comment above, this surely needs to be "a process that was completed in November 1953".......?
- Not really, for the same reason. That's pretty standard usage here, in news, newspapers, etc.
- Write Launch service provider in full in the column header
- I am hestitant to change the table headers used for the complete series of article. I wonder if it was originally abbreviated for space concerns (this would make it the longest label)
- Ionospheric, Solar, Aeronomy - don't think words other than the first need capital letters
- You Are Probably Right.
- "Apogee: 100 kilometres (62 mi) Dogs Dezik and Zhegan were carried in space and were recovered" - there seems to a need for a comma or full stop after the bracket
- Or a semi-colon for consistency!
- Legend for the pie chart says USA 24 but the table says 25

- Comments from Balon Greyjoy
- "The U.S. Navy fired its powerful Viking sounding" I would replace "fired" with "launched" or "flew" as that seems like a more spaceflight-esque term (I understand it's ambiguous, as weaponized rockets and spaceflight rockets are similar, and sometimes the same). Also, I would remove "powerful" as that seems to already be established by its world-record flight, and "powerful" is a relative term based upon the era of spaceflight.
- fixed
- I think the subsection "American" should be "United States" or "USA" to be in line with the rest of the article.
- I would similarly change "Soviet" to "Soviet Union"
- fixed
- "By 1950, the ballistic war-head carrying missile," I think this should be clear that this is development of the ballistic missile
- fixed

Comments from TRM
[edit]- Seems odd to link Soviet Union when you don't link United States.
- When I've linked both, I've been told that the U.S. is common knowledge whereas the USSR, no longer being extant, should be linked.
- "the World Air Sports Federation" does anyone refer to the FAI that way? Or is this contemporaneous?
- The source refers to it as "the World Air Sports Federation", and the same language appears in the FLC, Spaceflight before 1951
- "As well, development" reads awkwardly. Do you need "As well,"? Could you not just say "Development also..."?
- Fixed.
- "the U.S. Air Force the U.S. Army initiated" missing a word.
- fixed
- "The Army, Air Force, and the..." you linked these in the lead, so you can/should relink them in the main body of the article.
- fixed
- "sounding rockets" likewise.
- fixed
- What is aeronomy?
- Wikilinked
- "11 total were" a total of 11 were
- fixed.
- "effects. [3]" no space before refs.
- fixed.
- "U.S. Navy built" -> "U.S. Navy-built"
- fixed.
- "The first generation of U.S. Navy built Viking sounding" uses the word Viking three times in one sentence...
- I think it's justified in that sentence, especially since one is a mission name.
- "domestically built" hyphenate.
- hypens not used after adjectives.
- "in November 1950. In January 1951" repetitive.
- Disagree.
- "November 1951, [8]" no space before ref.
- Fixed.
- "ICBM" explain that before using the initialism.
- Fixed.
- "Wehrner von Braun" it's Wehrner.
- You mean "Wernher" :) Fixed.
- "propellants, JATOs, and" what are JATOs? Suggest a footnote.
- It's wikilinked. Does it really need further explanation?
- "Redstone missile" put missile in the pipe so it's not confused with the location of Redstone.
- Good idea.
- "the NRL team" rugby league team??
- Fixed.
- "the Aerobee rocket, joined" overlinked,
- Fixed.
- Link cosmic ray.
- Fixed.
- "the Russian-designed" shouldn't that be Soviet-designed?
- Fixed.
- " 1953)[5]:69–70" full stop missing.
- Fixed.
- "3,000 kilometres (1,900 mi) range" should use
adj=on
- I'm not familiar with that one. Could you format the entire string for my reference? Thank you.
That takes me to Launches. Plenty of work to do here. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 09:19, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks very much! All changes made or addressed. @The Rambling Man: --Neopeius (talk) 12:50, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Welcome back, @The Rambling Man:!
- "LSP" shouldn't be using initialisms before they are explained, even if they are linked.
- This is fundamental to the template. I am hesitant to make changes that will affect all of the other timeline articles. I also don't actually know how to do it.
- Where things like "flight number" don't exist, don't just use a blank cell, put a centred en-dash or something in there, or even {{n/a}}.
- Current convention appears to be blank cells. That usage was FL-approved for Spaceflight before 1951
- Tables should use captions per MOS:ACCESS.
- I would be grateful for suggested implementations.
- Ref 11 and 12 should use unspaced en-dash, not spaced hyphen.
- Titles taken directly from the articles. Literal cut and pastes.
- Ref 15 should use en-dash in year range.
- Again..
- "1950s in transport" why?
- This seems to be an artifact that predates my involvement. The Spaceflight before 1951 is also a member of the category, but none of the other timeline articles. I have deleted the category for both (but added the Category:Timeline_of_spaceflight_working_group_articles to 1951).

- Comments from Grapple X
- As above, captions for the tables would be preferred. Given that you have a heading for each month, I would suggest removing those as heading levels and inserting them as table captions instead, they'll display a little smaller and centred as a result but should give a screen reader an anchor for each one, you can then use the {{anchor}} template to continue the horizontal TOC's functionality.
- I am reluctant to change the style that was hashed out for Spaceflight before 1951 article, which got its style during the FLC process (it is currently the only Timeline FLC and serves as a model).
- I hadn't actually looked at the page code for this and it seems this is a moot point; buried in the templating for the tables is a caption field detectable by screen-readers and not displayed visibly, so this is actually not a problem. Just make sure if you're continuing a series of these that fields like
|caption={{sronly|January launches}}
are retained in future, that achieves what I was asking for here. 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 14:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Yup -- I am going through the articles one by one and fixing them. I've done through 1954. Ibemichael is cleaning up the launch lists nicely.
- I know they're copied from the sources but we're still okay to switch the hyphens in ref titles for dashes and this should be done, we don't need to mimic another venue's formatting verbatim.
- Is there guidance for switching punctuation? Do we just like the way emdashes look on WP?
- It's mostly about internal consistency; we would also, for example, change a block-capital article title to title casing. 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 14:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The draft plan for the ambitious 3,000 kilometres (1,900 mi) range R-3
—compare this to the lead's100-kilometre (62 mi) boundary of space
, this former usage shouldn't show in plural (ie it should be "3,000 kilometre (1,900 mi) range"). If you add |adj=on to the convert template it should display correctly. Check for consistent use of this throughout; when a distance is being used as an adjective you want to make sure the unit isn't in the plural.
- Ah, that's what the |adj=on notation does. :) Now can you tell me how to force American spelling on it? :)
- Sure, if you add |sp=us to the template it'll spell it the wrong way for you. :) 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 14:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Ah, that's what the |adj=on notation does. :) Now can you tell me how to force American spelling on it? :)
- Not sure why the lead links the Soviet Union and not the United States, I know one is extant and the other isn't but this looks inconsistent at first blush. If you want to skip linking the US, you could delink the USSR too as both are linked to elsewhere anyway. Either way works.
- This gets brought up in every article I do. If I link United States, it's unlinked as pedantic. If I leave it unlinked, I'm told it needs to be linked. :) The weight seems heavier on the unlinking, so that's the policy I've followed, and that's how it is in the FLC Spaceflight before 1951, which I'm using as my guide.
- Hmm. Not a big issue but having two similar terms side by side and treated differently does feel a little odd. I'll defer to previous usage on this. 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 14:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

that brief (~15 minutes) exposure
—this feels very informal, I would use a tilde for "approximately" in shorthand but I'm not familiar with it being used in formal settings, can we spell this out with a word instead (roughly, approximately, etc)?
- Fixed, thank you.
- Introduction of acronyms seems inconsistent but I'm not familiar with aeronautical conventions here; we have for example
free rockets, solid propellants, JATOs, and related items
with JATO explained only as a pipe link, but alsothe United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) team
where the acronym is spelt out at first use. I believe the latter is preferable but let me know if this is common usage in the field.
- Clarified.
- A very minor quibble but when it comes to image use, we have two tall images displaying essentially on top of each other, and in some displays the second one runs into the following heading, there is then just plain text for a while before the tables begin. Is there a relevant image that might fit in the "Spacecraft development" heading which we could use instead of the R-1 diagram? This is entirely an optional aside though.
- I see your point. Is it any better on the left? I couldn't find great illustrations for this article -- the R-1 diagram seemed the most appropriate and reflective of the era.
- It's a fine image, it's just a little awkward to place--the problem with rockets, I suppose, is that they're so thin and long that they demand a certain image ratio. I think it looks better at present; there's some mild sandwiching but I don't think it's a tremendous problem (and wouldn't be an issue on mobile devices). 𝄠ʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 14:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list after working on getting the singer's list of songs, awards, and filmography to FL status. It has gone through a copy-edit to improve the lead. Constructive criticism, in any form and from anyone, will be appreciated.
A pre-emptive comment – The Philippines does not have albums and singles charts that is comparable or equivalent to America's Billboard charts, Australia's ARIA Charts or Japan's Oricon, thus the exclusion of peak chart position columns. The trade organization that awards certifications in the Philippines is PARI, and I’ve included certification sales figure threshold changes over the years. I’ve tried my best to thoroughly search for RS (publications, newspapers, etc.) that are available online, in this case you would find sourcing that only list sales figure or certifications awarded only, where applicable EFNs are included to hopefully help clarify. Happy to address your comments and thanks to all who take the time to review the list. Pseud 14 (talk) 19:27, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Further comments
- My only comments on the tables are about the "promotional singles". What distinguishes a promotional single from a "normal" single? I also checked a couple of the sources - ref 104 just links to the album on Apple Music and confirms that the track was on it but doesn't say anything about it being released as a "promotional single"..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:38, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @ChrisTheDude:, I've listed under the "promotional singles" table those that were recorded/released as main theme songs for reality shows, drama series, charity singles (e.g. Dept. of Tourism campaign or Operation SMILE). I've added efns along with the in-line citations to clarify the singles' intended release. As for Ref 104, I have replaced this with an official link to Universal Record's YT channel for the promotional single/video for this tribute album, it appears that from the comments made by the label it was somewhat intended as promotional rather than commercial/normal single (it was also the only single released from this album). Hope that helps clarify. Pseud 14 (talk) 18:53, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]- No need for the dashes around the titles of his albums
- "as well as other artists" => "as well as for other artists"
- "They also co-wrote songs to soundtracks" => "They also co-wrote songs for soundtracks"
- "As well as these artists, Mars co-wrote" - I would just say "Mars also co-wrote"
- Need a comma after World Cup to close the clause
- "Jay-Z & Kanye West "Lift Off"" => "Jay-Z & Kanye West's "Lift Off""
- And you need a comma after that, otherwise it reads as if "Welcome Back" was also by Jay-Z and Kanye
- Apostrophe missing after Sugababes in the Garibay caption
- The artist column should sort by surname (where the person has one), not forename, so for example Adam Lambert should sort under L, not A
- Song and album titles which start with the word "The" should sort based on the next word in the title
- In note a, the mixtape title should be in italics
- Notes which are not complete sentences (eg "Alternate title "Mister Johnny".") should not have full stops

Support Comments from Aoba47
[edit]- I am uncertain about the first sentence. Is it necessary to list out the names of all his studio albums? In this FL (List of songs written by Tove Lo), the lead only lists the number of studio albums that the artist had released. I am only suggesting this because it makes the prose more concise and I am assuming that Mars will continue to release albums in the future so it would avoid having a rather long list of title right at the top of the page.
- For this part,
and create "a hip-hop, R&B, soul or rock" song
, would be it worthwhile to link the genres? This seems to be a standard practice for song and album articles, but II am not entirely sure how this is handled for this type of list. - I think that this part,
Mars explained the record was going to be a movie
, could use a little more clarification to avoid any confusion that this was literally going to used as the basis for a future movie or it would be a visual album. I think this sentence from the 24K Magic article expresses this a little more clearly: He told that the album was inspired by a non-existent movie that he visualized. - In the third paragraph, there are two sentences (i.e.
He also co-wrote Cardi B's "Please Me"
andHe co-wrote Alicia Keys's "Tears Always Win"
) in a row that begin the same. I would revise one of these instances to avoid being repetitive. - I have a question about this sentence,
He co-wrote Alicia Keys's "Tears Always Win", Adele's "All I Ask" for her third studio album, 25 (2015), Jay-Z & Kanye West's "Lift Off", and "Welcome Back" for the soundtrack of Rio 2.
Why are two albums named (i.e. 25 and Rio 2). but not (Girl on Fire or Watch the Throne)? It just seems a little random to only mention two albums here.
Great work with the list. I am glad to see a FLC about songwriting. My comments are relatively minor and once everything is addressed, I will be more than happy to support this nomination for promotion. I hope you are having a great week so far! Aoba47 (talk) 18:50, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Carlobunnie
[edit]- The image caption uses the MDY format but the references display as DMY. Since a mix of both formats is used in the editing, I was looking for a date template at the top of the page to explain why this is the case, but it turns out it's at the bottom of the page for some reason, along w one saying to use British English (both dated 2013) for this article? While consistency is necessary, I recall reading somewhere on WP that if an article is for eg. UK/European-based then DMY is the standard, but if it is US-centric, then MDY should be used. Mars' other articles also use MDY and American English, so you should probably move the date template up top, change it to MDY, and remove the BE template.
- The 2nd-to-last sentence of the 2nd pgraph presently reads: "Mars told that the album was inspired by..." - This grammar is incorrect, and should be written as either "Mars has said that..." or "In interviews with the RA+Rap-Up, Mars said that..." based on your attached sources. Though for concision, I think the former would be better.

Having checked the nominated list against the six FL criteria, I believe it's ready for FLC. As the main editor, I have sought to be neutral and comprehensive in my writing, and the list includes extensive citations. All recording dates, venues, and runtimes are sourced directly to the CD (or in the case of one or two entries, LP) liner notes, rather than third party websites such as musicbrainz.org, discogs.com, or musicweb-international.com. (I'd like to here acknowledge, and thank, a handful of users over at talkclassical.com, who generously provided me scans of liner notes in their personal collections... in particular, Kiki was extremely helpful.) Moreover, citation templates have been used. I have also made use of the work of Sibelius biographers and musicologists, especially in relating the importance of the Sibelius cycle and the historical play-by-play. Thank you, in advance, for your comments and for having taken the time to give the list a read through. Silence of Järvenpää (talk) 18:21, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Source review – Pass
[edit]Well I already looked at the sources when we were discussing at my talk page, but let's see what I find now...! Aza24 (talk) 21:06, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Version reviewed: [20]
- Formatting
- Generally page ranges are "pp." and single pages are "p." this is by no means required, but is the standard, if you are so inclined
- The linear notes look fine, there is a lot so hopefully I didn't miss any inconsistencies....
- Reliability
- No issues, great sourcing!
- Verifiability
- Refs 32, 117, 119 and 127 aren't connecting to their respective Sources (check for typos or incorrect years and then make sure they connect when you hover over them)
- Done 3 of 4 – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:43, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Ewen and Goss could do with an identifier or some sort, ISBN or OCLC maybe? Aza24 (talk) 21:13, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Added OCLC – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:43, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Aza24 – Thanks for the source review. I have fixed almost everything, and added missing sources for the Sfns with harv error (which were difficult to find, give that I know very less about this list). 3 of the 4 errors are now resolved, but I'm not able to find the source for the remaining one (Ref#117). Should I just remove it as the same info could be verified by other given sources too. Please suggest. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:43, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Many thanks for stepping in here Kavyansh.Singh. I'm not sure where Silence of Järvenpää has gone, but they were awfully excited about this list, so it would be a shame to see all this work fail FLC. I'm thinking the ref in question is for this publication, would you concur? Aza24 (talk) 05:37, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Aza24 – Thanks for the link, but it appears that I have used the same booklet for Ref#32, which too appears to refer to this one. Are both the references same.... Silence of Järvenpää has made around 10 edits in last 30 days. Indeed this is an excellent list, and I want it to pass the nomination. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 06:06, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Kavyansh.Singh I think it must be to the same score, especially per the roman numerals in the preface, presumably SoJ accidentally cited it differently. The information for ref 32 also seems to be cited on page xi. Does that seems sound? On another note, I'm going to attempt to combine some of refs in a row to one to hopefully help things move along. Aza24 (talk) 06:14, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I have merged both the short footnotes. Hopefully, that addresses all the comments of the source review. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 17:09, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]- "Sibelius cycle" no idea why "cycle" has to be in italics here.
- Done Removed. Silence of Järvenpää (talk)
- Also no really good reason to bold the symphonies.
- Done Removed. Silence of Järvenpää (talk)
- "in the U.S.)." I would say United States to avoid that awkward full stop/parenthesis/full stop construction.
- Done 3/3 U.S. changed to United States. Silence of Järvenpää (talk) 00:20, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- 43rd : The ordinal suffix (e.g., th) is not superscripted.
- Done Removed 1/1 instances found. Silence of Järvenpää (talk) 00:22, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Our article calls him Neeme Järvi.
- Doing... Not sure what you mean here. I see Neeme in the article referenced as Neeme. Is it perhaps that you saw Paavo Järvi, his son, and thought it was an error? Clarification welcome! Silence of Järvenpää (talk) 00:20, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- This appears to have been Done – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 19:02, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Done 5/5 instances changed. Silence of Järvenpää (talk) 00:39, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "runtime [m]" no spaces between headings and footnotes.
- Done Removed Silence of Järvenpää (talk)
- "Select incomplete Sibelius cycles:" does that mean that it's an {{incomplete list}}?
- Why two runtimes (32:28, 30:46)?
@Silence of Järvenpää – can you please clarify the above two points. I have taken care of rest all of the issues. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 19:02, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]- It appears to me (per the source) that Karajan did two different recordings of Symphony 5, thats why 2 runtimes. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 17:01, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Ref 4 pp.
- In fact, check all multiple page sources are using pp. not p.
- "Sibelius: Symphonies Nos. 1-7 " should be en-dash.
- " OCLC ????" is there any point to this?
- No, removed. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 19:02, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed some minor table formatting issues, and addressed the "incomplete list" comment- the section has a form inclusion criteria (a conductor who recorded 3+ parts with the same orchestra (but not all 7)), but it was buried in a note instead of in the text. I've made it more prominent. With that, I think we're good to promote. --PresN 14:21, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm back at it with another filmography. This time it's Samuel L. Jackson, one of my favorite actors and the highest grossing live-action actor of all time. ~ HAL333 15:46, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments
- "Ignored" spelt incorrectly in note 1
- "Tarantino-directed Pulp Fiction.[4] For Pulp Fiction" => "Tarantino-directed Pulp Fiction.[4] For the latter film" (to avoid repetition of the title)
- "collaborated with Tarantino again in Django Unchained" =>"collaborated with Tarantino again on Django Unchained"
- "He is scheduled to receive a Academy Honorary Award" => "He is scheduled to receive an Academy Honorary Award"
- There are two credits for him playing Agent Augustus Gibbons but one just for Augustus Gibbons - this might be correct (the character might not be an agent in one film) but I jus thought I'd check.....
- Good catch. ~ HAL333 22:22, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Any reason why only the TV table is not sortable?
- A Soldier's Play sorts incorrectly

Comments from Dank
- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- Forbes.com/sites is being flagged by the UPSD tool as iffy (it depends on the particular page), and Express is flagged as "generally unreliable".
- "and he has reprised the role in later entries": "reprise" shows up a lot in this paragraph; I think this is probably the bit that I'd cut back on to avoid repetition. Maybe you can delete it, or replace it with "and other films" or something. Otherwise:
- FLC criteria:
- 1. The prose is fine. I've done a little copyediting; feel free to revert or discuss. I see Chris has checked the sorting. I've sampled the links in the tables.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
- 3b. Except as above, the article is well-sourced to reliable sources, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any other problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
- 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find), and it wouldn't fit easily inside another article.
- 4. It is navigable. I'm a little surprised that there's no navbox (but I see that's standard in filmography lists) and so few categories at the end, but you'd know better than I do what's expected.
- 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
- 6. It is stable.
- Close enough for a support. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 14:01, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Hi @HAL333 – This is not a source review, but just few comments
- Add "RogerEbert.com" as work in Ref#59.
- I would suggest adding WP links to all the websites/media sites, etc in the citations. Currently, some are linked (like The New York Times in Ref#99), while others are not.
- I ended up unlinking everything. ~ HAL333 16:35, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- I ended up unlinking everything. ~ HAL333 16:35, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Replace "New York Times" with "The New York Times" in Ref#169
- Capitalize W and P in "The washington post" (Ref#183)
- There is a Reference named "Archived Copy". (Ref#188) Reformat it.
- Comment on images – Three of the four images were originally posted in Flickr, and are licenced properly. The remaining image was original work of a user, which was confirmed by an OTRS ticket. I see no issues. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 08:52, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from TRM
[edit]- "A prolific actor, Jackson's films have collectively grossed" this is a little repetitive and confusing: (a) you don't need to repeat his name (b) we already know he's an actor (c) you said previously he was also a producer but this "Jackson's films" is that just as an actor (per the sentence) or including his work as a producer?
- "with a small part" minor role?
- To avoid repetition, I prefer "small part". ~ HAL333 21:20, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "His other early film appearances were minor roles in films such as " -> "He also made brief appearances in films such as...
- "and, in 1994, he starred" the following year (to mix up the in XXXX repeat)
- "received a Golden Globe nomination" another
- "Two years later, he starred in the science fiction horror film Deep Blue Sea.[11]" is this noted for any particular reason?
- It supports that the genre is "science fiction horror". ~ HAL333 21:18, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "Also in 2000, he " -> The same year
- Television roles don't appear to be covered at all in the lead?
- Although I cover The Sunset Limited, Jackson's television performanes are all very bried and not much of note. Secret Invasion may change that as he may be the main character. ~ HAL333 21:23, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "One episode" v "1 episode" be consistent.
- "Denotes television series that have not yet been released" there are none.
- Corrected. ~ HAL333 21:17, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "The Public Theatre" Theater apparently.
- "The Mountaintop" doesn't need piping.
- Year -> Year(s).
- Year range MOS now says we should include full years on either side of the en-dash.
- Although that's what Mr. Jackson would call a "stupid-ass decision", I guess I'll roll with it. Done. ~ HAL333 22:23, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- What does "Also likeness" mean?
- Removed. ~ HAL333 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "Samuel Jackson Announcer" he just announces himself? What does that mean?
- Clarified (hopefully) in note column. ~ HAL333 21:13, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- NYT sources require a subscription.
- Ref 5, isn't Variety a work?
- Refs 179, 182, etc date format inconsistent. Check all.
- Ref 157 SHOUTING.
- Ref 205, Evening Standard is linked (no others appear to be linked) and not in italics.

Source review – Pass
[edit]- Version reviewed – 1
- Formatting
- Ref#22 – "1 November 1999" - inconsistent with the date style.
- Ref#198 – "1 November 1999" - inconsistent with the date style.
- Various references have "The Los Angeles Times", but the newspaper and the Wikipedia article calls it just "Los Angeles Times", without 'The' ... Better to follow that way.
- Ref#152 – "Hollywood Reporter" should be written as "The Hollywood Reporter" to be consistent with rest of the article.
- Rest fine. I had included some formatting issued in my previous comments here, which were addressed.
- Reliability
- No issues
- Verifiability

[edit]- "playing in EFL League One ... the 2021–22 season" I think a ref needs to be added here (e.g. The Football Club History Database).
- "a name which was retained until 1912" ==> They were renamed as Gillingham F.C. in 1912?
- In the lede: I don't think it would hurt if it was stated in which year Luke Freeman made his debut and when Roeder was player-manager.

Comments and source review from Kavyansh.Singh
[edit]- Not sure why few columns have a reference, while rest don't have.
- There's a general reference at the top of the column - the specific refs on rows are for players not covered by the general ref (because it's from 2003). I'm not repeating the same ref on 600 rows or however many it is..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:56, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Sounds completely reasonable not to repeat it 600 times. I didn't count, but its way above 600. Some 750-800 rows. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 13:13, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Just FYI, the ref to the Mitchell et al book doesn't give a location because in the front it lists something like six different locations for the publishing house rather than just one (might be five, I haven't got it in front of me right now, but it's definitely quite a few).

- Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
- I added an sronly template to the table caption, since it repeats the section heading.
- Appreciated!EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 22:37, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- You've got some work to do on the sort order of the first and third columns. {{sortname}} should fix the problems in the third column. You might think sorting order wouldn't be important in the first column ... after all, you've created the table with the proper sort order in the first column to start with ... but one nice thing about a sortable table is that you can sort on two columns if you want to, and if you try that with this table, it won't work. Fortunately, the {{dts}} template will make your job pretty easy.

- 1. For some areas where I haven't kept up with prose standards, I typically wait for other people to do prose reviews, then sign off on their reviews (or not). In this case, I know you want to nominate another list soon, so I'll go ahead and get a support in before the prose review is done ... prose reviews tend to be easy to come by, especially for Milhist articles. The table coding seems fine. I sampled the links in the table.
- 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
- 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
- 3b. The article is well-sourced to reliable sources. The only refs flagged by the UPSD tool are to the War Office, and there's no problem there. Otherwise, the tool isn't indicating any problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
- 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find), and it wouldn't fit easily inside another article.
- 4. It is navigable.
- 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the one image seems fine, but it needs alt text (a few words would be fine).
- Alt text has been addedEnigmaMcmxc (talk) 22:37, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- The dates do not sort correctly in the first column (currently sorting on that column results in the following sequence: 1 April 1902 > 1 December 1967 > 1 February 1910 etc, which clearly isn't right)

- The five unknown GOCs have ranks listed, even though their identities are unknown. Do the sources confirm these ranks?
- No. Technically, someone from the next rank down (as seen via the sourced WWI and WWII sections) took over temporary command until a permanent appointment was made. The cited sources really only identify the gap: X finished his appointment on X date, and then X took over on X date; they do not list the interim temporary CO. I supposed the ranks could be removed? I was hesitant to leave a gap (so to speak), if the article was compared to the Gazette.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 19:04, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]- "ending the division's 203-year history" well, a broken history, which spanned 203 years but with like 75 years of those while it was disbanded.
- Addressed a few points down, I would imagine.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "The commander, the general..." isn't this sentence true of pretty much every military unit in history?
- Probably. However, it was asked elsewhere to point out what the GOC actually does.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- "and played a pivotal role " I would suggest one more sentence to cover why it was pivotal wouldn't go amiss here.
- I have added in a couple of extra lines to say what it wasEnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Something I've seen recently, the opening sentences of the first para of the lead seem to be a lead for the lead! You don't need all those disband/reform in the opening sentences because you do it with more detail in the next two paras, and by then it feels repetitive.
- I have reworded the first para, per your suggestion. Does this work?EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- On my screen, the infobox just creeps into the "General officer commanding" section and needlessly squashes the table substantially.
- I have checked on my phone and laptop, and I am not seeing this. Any suggestions on how to resolve this?EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- In sortable tables, linked items are linked every time because after a re-sort, there's no knowing if the linked item appears first.
- Links added for ranksEnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- 23 Jan 1855 is then followed by 1855 which is then followed by March 1855. Sorting then by "Appointment date" re-organises those. Get it in the default order to start with.
- In this case, it is already in the default order. On 23 January 1855, Pennefather was appointed as GOC. At some point later, he was sick and someone held temporary command. At some point in early March, based off the wording in the Gazette, he resumed command. I suppose the these two entries could be removed, and a note added to the initial one to state that he left command of the division on a temporary basis due to being sick? The Gazette does not state who took command in his absence, but does not his 'return to command'.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- To clarify, what TRM means is that if you click on the sort icon for that first column, the row for the acting commander after Pennefather's 23 January stint jumps above the 23 January row. You need to use a hidden sort key with a date anywhere between 23 January and March to ensure that that row always stays below the 23 January row. Same for any other row that shows only a year, not a specific date. Hope that makes sense -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:36, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Probably worth having a "number" column as you note that 63 individuals have held the position in the lead.
- Ah, if this table includes "acting" appointments, they should be identified.
- All acting appointments are identified as such in the note section. Was you suggesting something else? I feel like the acting commanders would make a bit of a mess of the GOC count, as I do not believe I included them in the 63 count. There also GOCs that had their tenure broken-up by acting commanders due to sickness etc. I see that making a number column look a little messy maybe?

Hi everyone, here's the latest of my number-one country song lists. If 2015 (currently nominated with multiple supports) and this one are both promoted, that will create an unbroken run from 1959 to 2020.

Hi everyone, we're nearly there now you will be pleased to hear - with 74 of these number-one country songs lists promoted to FL and one nearly there, here's the penultimate one to be nominated (until this year ends and I need to work on the one for 2021.....). In this year, acts reaching number one included such legends as the Everly Brothers and Elvis - back in 1957, Billboard considered the early rock and roll/rockabilly sound to be a hybrid of country music and rhythm and blues, and so classics like "Jailhouse Rock" were big hits on both the country and R&B charts. Anyway, as ever I look forward to your feedback, which will be acted on as quickly as humanly possible..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:17, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]As always, nice work. You should be able to get one of these past me with zero comments by now but .......
- "charts would merge" why passive voice?
- "form a multimetric chart" whaaaaat?
- "At the start of the year" as we've talked about other years, maybe "At the start of 1957...
- "topped all three charts and was in the top" topped/top
- "country number ones during the year; he reached number one" repetitive.
- Here's a curious one. You have a "jockeys" chart and I assume that's what's meant by "airplay-based listing" but for non-experts, there's no connection between what a "jockeys" chart is and the fact they are DJs putting songs on rotation...
- "topped the pop singles charts" which charts were those?
- "than 20 number ones to his name" to his name isn't needed.
- "and returned to the top spot" returned to number one (to avoid three "top" in that sentence).
- "Marty Robbins had the final number one on the juke box chart." with??
- Ref 2, en-dash in year range.

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel that these types of lists on United States presidential elections have a great potential to be FL. I almost completely re-formatted the list, added a lead, and key for political parties. It lists all the elections in which Hawaii participated, with votes and percentage. I intend to make similar changes to all the lists within this series. I would respond to every comment, and try to bring this nomination to FL standards whenever needed. With one of the list (United States presidential elections in Washington, D.C.) currently a FLC, with multiple comprehensive reviews, all resolved, I nominate this too. Check this page for progress.

Just to preface this, this is my first featured list nomination, so I apologize ahead of time for any issues. Anyway, I've been working on this article for the past few days, and I believe it meets the featured list criteria. It covers relevant information on the office of the president for Princeton University as well as lists all presidents and acting presidents that have served the office. I'll be pleased to address any and all feedback. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 20:06, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments Support from Sdkb
[edit]- For Jacob Green and John Blair, they died long enough ago that I'd expect any images of them to be in the public domain. Do any exist? {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- You would be correct, but I have scoured the internet and can not find any pictures of either of them. The Princeton University Art Museum typically has portraits of every president (and acting presidents) but there is none for either. The only picture I've found for either is this this one of Green, but I believe it is an illustration for the book (published 1993), so definitely still copyrighted.
- That's alright; thanks for making the effort to search. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Princeton University Press is linked in one ref but not another; MOS:REPEATLINK doesn't apply within refs, so I'd link it in both. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed; good catch.
- Shouldn't Princeton University be linked right at the start of the first sentence? {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed. When I revised the lead sentence, I must've forgot to wikilink the institution again.
- I'm on the fence about whether or not adding {{Infobox official post}} would be an improvement or not, so I'll leave it to your discretion. It has some parameters for details you may want to add anyways, such as the president's salary (available on Princeton's 990 form). {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll add the salary information into the lead, but I think I'll hold off from the Infobox. I considered it, but I feel like it provides little additional information that warrants its inclusion.
- Sounds good. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

three presidents who have resigned
Don't most presidents resign at the end of their tenure (the only alternatives being dying or being impeached)? I'm guessing that this is saying something more specific, perhaps resigned in the middle of their term, but if so it's ill-defined. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- I suppose that every president does resign. The reason I have that statistic is that is what Leitch (1978) and the university say: only three have. I believe the reasoning follows more along the lines of the three that resigned were having issues with the trustees (two were pressured to leave; one was having disagreements) while the others simply did not want to serve the office anymore or had other ambitions (looking at Woodrow Wilson over here). If you want, I'll remove it since it is ambiguous in a way.
- It needs to be either clarified or removed. If the sources don't offer any clarification, removing it is alright. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Removed. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 20:23, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Many of Princeton's deceased presidents are buried
Do we have a specific number? {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- The citation for NJ.com on that sentence says 12 out of 16 deceased presidents are buried there. That source came out in 2014 and president Bowen died in 2016. A news release from Princeton University says that he was buried there. That would make 13 out of 17, so I guess I could also cite the news release and provide that number if you want.
- I think that would be good. We should avoid vagueness in the lead when it's possible to do concisely, WP:ABOUTSELF makes the reference fine, and WP:CALC covers the basic addition. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Father of Ashbel Green, 8th president of the university
Ashbel Green shouldn't be listed right next to a big ten, then. Whatever numbering system we decide on, it needs to be self-consistent. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Good point. I'll simply put a hyphen for the acting presidents, so that way the numbering system doesn't have to be revamped on this page and every other page that mentions a Princeton president.

- Good point. I'll simply put a hyphen for the acting presidents, so that way the numbering system doesn't have to be revamped on this page and every other page that mentions a Princeton president.
- A similar issue with the fact that Eisgruber is called the 20th in the lead and the 25th in the list. The footnote explains what's going on, but we still need to be consistent—either go with the university's official numbering or go with our own. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- See above.
The longest serving president was James Carnahan at 31 years, and the shortest was Jonathan Edwards at five weeks
There's a grammar issue here, as "at 31 years" refers to Carnahan's tenure, not Carnahan himself. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Reworded.
- The wikilinking in the lead could probably be improved. Currently, we link the common terms corporation and alumni but not the less common term charter. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Improved wikilinking (hopefully).
- Has the university ever had a non-white president? Noting the racial demographics along with the gender demographics would seem appropriate. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- You see, uh, the answer is no. Shirley Tilghman, for example, was the first woman president, and only the second woman president ever of the Ivy League. Change comes a bit slow.
- Could we mention that fact in the same sentence as Tilghman, e.g.
All of Princeton's presidents have been white and all besides Shirley Tilghman have been male.
? Race and gender are frequently brought up together, and it'd introduce neutrality concerns to highlight only the one where the university has started to diversify. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Added the fact that there has not been any non-white presidents.

Died while in office in Philadelphia seeking medical treatment
Do we know anything more specific about what disease he had? {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- I've checked all my main sources I go to for Princeton history, and it doesn't appear that anyone knows. He was also a fairly inconsequential president so not much is every really said on him. I've done other searching but cannot find anything. Once I eventually work on his page, I'll update this list if I do find out.
- Sounds fine. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Founding Father of the United States of America; Signer of the Declaration of Independence
In the sense you're using Founding Father here, it's synonymous with signer of Declaration of Independence; to avoid redundancy, we should choose only one. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Fair point. I'll remove Founding Father, as he is more associated with signing the Declaration of Independence.
- Looks good. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ongoing issues with the institution
This is rather vague; would there be any way to concisely say what the issues were, or would that require going into undue detail? {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Basically, Smith fired 125 students over a mini riot that occurred in 1807, which had made both students and trustees not fond of him. He was also in the process of educational reforms (causing less students to go into ministry), which others were dissatisfied with. Furthermore, enrollment was dropping and faculty was declining. All combined, the trustees weren't happy and told him to resign, or they'll replace him; he resigned. Could I summarize that -- maybe, but the sentence would be quite long. On the Princeton University page, where I rewrote the history section, I dedicated two complex sentences to Smith, so it might fall into undue if I attempt to do that here.
- Fine to just stick with what we have, then. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Resigned after pressure from university trustees
Again, it'd be helpful to have a little bit of specificity if it's possible to provide it concisely. Especially given that we're citing a history from Princeton, we should be wary of any attempts to sugarcoat some of the nastier battles in history by papering them over with generalities. I'm not sure if that's something happening here, but something to be on the lookout for. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- His was mainly due to dissatisfaction with his administration style (it was quite lackluster). I'll add that in.
- "dissatisfaction with his administration style" still reads as pretty nonspecific to me, but good enough I guess. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Added "lackluster" as a descriptor. It might still sound non-specific, but genuinely, he was removed because the board of trustees wanted someone more effective. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 20:23, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- His was mainly due to dissatisfaction with his administration style (it was quite lackluster). I'll add that in.
- Per MOS:SPECIFICLINK, I would suggest changing
28th President of the United States
to28th President of the United States
(including the "28th" in the link to avoid any eggs). {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Fixed, another good catch.
- There's a lot of capitalizing titles, such as
10th President of the University of Michigan
, which would work equally well as10th president of the University of Michigan
, since "president of the University of Michigan" is both a description and a title. I don't have any issue if you want to leave it this way, as the way you've done it is both valid and consistent, but just wanted to note it. Institutions almost always prefer to capitalize, as it makes them seem more important, so it's sometimes something to watch for neutrality. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Fair point about neutrality, but since I'm using it more as a title, I'll keep it capitalized.
- Sounds fine. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Fair point about neutrality, but since I'm using it more as a title, I'll keep it capitalized.
- For ref 13, there's some trickiness between
|website=
and|publisher=
, as I'm not sure of the exact relationship between NJ.com and The Times, but however we resolve it, The Times needs to be italicized as it's a newspaper. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]- Fixed.
- I assume ref 36 ought to have Hampden-Sydney College as publisher. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed.
- For ref 42, Chi Phi Fraternity is probably better as the publisher, not the website, and it can be wikilinked. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, I was undecided, but I'll go with your input.
- For ref 44, if we're citing the White House as a website rather than a publisher, the wikilink would actually be whitehouse.gov. Again, probably better to just list the publisher. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- To be honest, I wasn't aware that whitehouse.gov was a Wikipedia page. I'll switch The White House to publisher, though.
Overall, this list looks in quite good shape (especially considering it's your first FL nom). The lack of information about academic specialties is probably the biggest issue. I haven't done a full source review, but if my concerns above are adequately addressed, I will be happy to support. Cheers, {{u|Sdkb}} talk 21:21, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Oops, apologies to come back here with more, but I just realized that the comment I was going to make about academic specialties I must've forgotten to make anywhere outside my head except my conclusion and then forgotten about. That comment is that it'd be nice to have more information about the academic specialties of the presidents. For instance, Tilghman is a molecular biologist in addition to being an academic administrator, and most of the others are similar. I think it'd improve the list to add mentions of those things if you'd be willing. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 02:52, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Little late to responding to this, but I thought about adding their specialties, but the issue is that besides Tilghman, the rest are basically political scientists, economists, or theologians. Tilghman is probably the most interesting academic specialty out of them all. I'll consider adding them for later, but I'll do that after researching more thoroughly into each president if that sounds reasonable. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 04:19, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments
- Surely the wikilink to Research university should be placed on both words, not just the first?
- Fixed
- Three consecutive sentences start with "The president" - could do with varying that a bit
- Reworded the sentence in the middle of the three consecutive sentences. Feel free to check it again to see if its up to par.
- "13 of Princeton's 17 deceased presidents" - don't start a sentence with a number written in digit form
- Didn't know you weren't suppose to do this. Nice catch. Fixed.
- Per WP:CAPFRAG, any note which does not form a complete sentence should not have a full stop (I realise the linked page relates to captions, but the same principle applies.....)
- Hmm, I did consider the punctuation of the notes and was initially ambivalent on what to do. I'll remove some of the full stops per your suggestion for one-off statements, but for other notes, I added the full stop to separate the general ideas conveyed in the notes. For instance, Aaron Burr Sr. has positions he served in, family history, and his death—all of which are separated by full stops per my reasoning above. Hope that's fair and makes sense.

Source review – Pass
[edit]Looking now. Aza24 (talk) 20:46, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Version reviewed: [28]
- Formatting
- Assuming you want to link Princeton University in ref 14
- Fixed
- A bit confused by ref 31, why have both 2012 and then February 9, 2012 later? Or is the latter the specific date for a year encompassing publication?
- I followed the formatting for citing Congressional Records, and that was the result, but I believe your latter point is the reason for that.
- Reliability
- No issues
- Verifiability
- Checked a few and it all looked good.
- Hmm, the issues seem far too minor to prevent a Pass for source review, would still recommend taking a look at them though. Aza24 (talk)

Comments from TRM
[edit]- " a private Ivy League research university" proper sea of blue here, three consecutive links butted up together.
- You are correct, but there is no easy way to really resolve that. Most university articles for the Wikiproject as well also have that minor sea of blue for their introduction. If you have suggestions on what to do, I'm more than willing to attempt them.
- I concur that there's no reasonable way to avoid a MOS:SEAOFBLUE here. Note that that bullet point begins with

- "the official residence" shouldn't that be linked in the previous sentence, i.e. "the president's official residence..."?
- Nice catch and fixed.
- I'm pleased to see the use of row and col scopes, but I think the row scope should be the item of interest, i.e. the president name, not the number they served, especially as there are several repeats for the acting president, which you denote with an en-dash.
- Fixed
- There are several (unexplained) gaps in tenures, e.g. 1 stopped in 1747 but 2 didn't start until 1748, what happened?
- There's a note for that particular gap in tenure for the page, but that gap came from Burr not becoming the official president till that time although he was essentially serving in that role since Dickinson's death.
- Oh, and as for other gaps, if there isn't a note for it, there wasn't really an explanation. I could do more digging if you'd like if you want a note for each gap, but I believe most are just from there being no official president or acting president, and the VP was most likely serving in the role.
- Did I miss how these individuals were selected for the role?
- "...who is selected by the board of trustees by ballot." is in the second sentence. Not sure if there is any more to add to that.
- There's a mix of semi-colons and full stops separating the factoids, what's the strategy?
- I believe I answered this above, but essentially, semi-colons separate factoids in the same category (e.g., positions that the president held) while the full stop denotes a separate category of factoids.
- Table is sortable so linked items should be linked each time (e.g. "College of New Jersey").
- Fixed. Did it for the "College of New Jersey" links and the "Log College" link
- Literally nothing to say about McCosh??
- He was from Scotland, which is something he only shares with Witherspoon. He was a minister of a few non-notable churches there w/o Wikipedia pages and did some philosophy work, but unless I change the general requirements for note selection that I used for the other presidents, there isn't anything that really pertains to him to mention.
- Goheen has an image.
- Its copyrighted in the US, or I am at least very unsure of its copyrighted status for the US. It's public domain in other parts of the world though.
- But it's in use at the Goheen article? There's no reason it can't be used here too. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 12:00, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I mean, just because one article has an issue, doesn't mean other (Featured list) articles should replicate that. Why add a copyrighted image (as the image is from the Princeton yearbook if I recall correctly, though I could be wrong)? I initially had the image in the article, but I eventually removed it for that exact reason. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 21:43, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't follow at all. If it's at Commons, then it's free to use across Wikipedia. This is a very odd take on copyright. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 21:45, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- That simply isn't true, as there are certain images on Commons that have copyrighted status and are only on their for fair use (and can only be used on one page, like the image for the Princeton President Bowen). Others are copyrighted files that are uploaded incorrectly, such as the one for Goheen I presume. Perhaps, you are misconstruing something, because the Goheen image is copyrighted (uploaded after the public domain date) or at least plausibly copyrighted (as I don't necessarily have the time to search the copyright archives) to where I don't feel comfortable using the image. I don't know what else to say. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 03:54, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- So its use at the Goheen article is okay but not here? The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 18:03, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- See below. 05:21, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- By the way, fair use images aren't uploaded to Commons, they're uploaded to Wikipedia. If you need further help with this, drop me a line. In any case, the image we're discussing isn't a fair use image. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 22:18, 4 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- The origin of the image is unknown. Considering the only places I've seen that image are from Princeton's various websites, I'd suspect it came from their yearbook or another unique image source of theirs. As a result, that would make it copyrighted. I've already said this, but I'm uncomfortable using the image for this reason as it has not entered the public domain. While the copyright could have expired, I'm unaware of if it has, and I realistically just do not have the time to check the copyright records. Since Wikipedia's Featured List criteria includes no copyrighted material, it would not make sense to include this image out of precautionary reasons, no? Anyway, I've answered all of your other suggestions; I'd just like to know now if this image going to be the reason for a lack of pass. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 05:21, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Reading this convo, a few pointers. TRM is correct (unless I'm quite mistaken myself) that if a suitably licensed image exists on Commons, then it may be used on Wikipedia, since Commons does not accept fair use images. However, PoliticsIsExciting is correct that the current licensing on Commons, as provided by uploader Marcus334, is questionable. It's tagged with PD-old, but that template says
You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States
, and it's missing any such tag. It also doesn't say who the author is (other than "Herald"), so there's no way to know if they died 70 years ago. Given this, if someone wanted to really get rid of it, they'd be justified in nominating it for deletion on Commons. - Lastly, regarding whether it's incumbent on PoliticsIsExciting to determine the copyright status as part of this nomination, personally it's not something I would hold up support over, as figuring out publication history can be very challenging (as I've recently endured myself), but reviewers can choose how strictly they interpret WP:FLCR 5b, and I could see a plausible view that, if a freely licensed image is available, it's incumbent on the nominator to obtain it. The best way to resolve the licensing question would be to reach out to the Mudd Manuscript Library and ask where it was first published. If they are able to give an answer, just check the copyright renewal logs, where it's highly probable there was no renewal, and then use PD-US-not renewed. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 03:01, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- From my perspective, I see no issue with excluding the photo if the copyright status is questionable. You'd be amazed how many old images on Commons don't hold up well to scrutiny at the FAC level regarding their image licensing, and it's an issue that many contributors must deal with. If this is one of those cases, I wouldn't be in a rush to insert it. Images aren't required by any criteria (though it's nice to include them when possible), and there's always a chance that an image with stronger licensing will be found at a later date.

- So its use at the Goheen article is okay but not here? The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 18:03, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- That simply isn't true, as there are certain images on Commons that have copyrighted status and are only on their for fair use (and can only be used on one page, like the image for the Princeton President Bowen). Others are copyrighted files that are uploaded incorrectly, such as the one for Goheen I presume. Perhaps, you are misconstruing something, because the Goheen image is copyrighted (uploaded after the public domain date) or at least plausibly copyrighted (as I don't necessarily have the time to search the copyright archives) to where I don't feel comfortable using the image. I don't know what else to say. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 03:54, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't follow at all. If it's at Commons, then it's free to use across Wikipedia. This is a very odd take on copyright. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 21:45, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I mean, just because one article has an issue, doesn't mean other (Featured list) articles should replicate that. Why add a copyrighted image (as the image is from the Princeton yearbook if I recall correctly, though I could be wrong)? I initially had the image in the article, but I eventually removed it for that exact reason. PoliticsIsExciting (talk) 21:43, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- But it's in use at the Goheen article? There's no reason it can't be used here too. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 12:00, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Its copyrighted in the US, or I am at least very unsure of its copyrighted status for the US. It's public domain in other parts of the world though.
- "Tilghman" notes should reflect she's the only female ever.
- Added
- Ref 15 needs an en-dash, not a hyphen.

- As does ref 27.

- NYT refs are subscription only.

This list is about the various points systems used by the FIA Formula One World Championship over the course of the history of the series to determine who wins the World Drivers' Championship and the World Constructors' Championship each season. I expanded this list two months ago and believe it meets the FL criteria. All comments are welcome MWright96 (talk) 13:42, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)
- Table is mostly good, but is missing rowscopes: the primary cell of each row needs "scope=row", e.g. "| {{F1|1950}}–{{F1|1953}}" should be "!scope=row| {{F1|1950}}–{{F1|1953}}". Rowscopes, in combination with the colscopes you already have in the header row, let screen reader software easily parse tables accurately
- In general, it's frowned upon to have multiple rows spanned together in a column to the right of one where they aren't spanned together; I can't find any guidance against it in DTAB so it might just be a visual thing. I think that what you have here is fine as it makes sense for the data to span together what you have done, so this is just a note calling it out for awareness. --PresN 13:59, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- "Unlike certain other motor racing series..." feel like you should mention which series. As a follower of F1, I'm a bit stumped about which series you're referring to.
- "there have been 345 out of 770 Drivers' Championship points scorers..." this is a bit of a convoluted way of saying a certain number of drivers have scored points in a race. Would reword it for greater clarity.
- I'm not sure if this is necessary per the criteria, but it would be nice to have an image in the lead. Perhaps of a Ferrari as they are the record points scorers?
Other than these points, it looks good. NapHit (talk) 14:24, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Grapple X
[edit]- I could be an idiot (I am an idiot) but I'm thrown by the "Drivers Championship" and "Constructors Championship" columns in the table proper. It seems to tally how many places points were awarded for in a race ("all" presumably meaning "up to 10th place"?) but entries like "9 (5 from first 6, 4 from last 5)" don't seem readily understandable from the text in the lead, which does mention "The format was expanded to include the first six finishers of each event between 1960 and 2002 but with no point for fastest lap" but nothing about the "last 5" (or last 6 or last 7, etc)? I could just be missing something on a hump day morning here but perhaps a note to explain this, just in with the other lettered notes, wouldn't go amiss.

- Not important or anything, but sometimes historic football seasons are compared with the modern game in an adjusted format (it used to be 2 points for a win, now 3, so comparing a season in, say, the 50s to now is sometimes done by adding those extra points); if there were a reliable source which contextualised Hamilton's record points tally on a similar basis it would be an interesting addition—a nice concrete example of the changing point systems and their impact. This obviously isn't something we should be doing ourselves but if you ever come across reliable sports coverage discussing it, it might be worth circling back to.

[edit]epic romance
— possibly link this to romantic epic?one of the most expensive films ever made
— suggest linking this to list of most expensive films- Probably just my personal preference but I think this flows better:
It was released to critical acclaim and commercial success and holds the title for being the first picture to cross $1 billion at the box office.
→ Released to critical acclaim and commercial success, it became the first picture to gross $1 billion at the box office. the 1998 Academy Awards
/the 1998 British Academy Film Awards
— WP:SEAOFBLUE?- "statuettes" seems a bit MOS:JARGONy as somebody unfamiliar with the Oscars would probably not know that the awards are statuettes
In 2009, Cameron released his first feature film in twelve years, Avatar.
→ In 2009, Avatar, Cameron's first feature film in twelve years, was released. (Technically, Cameron didn't release it.)The film broke several box office records and on January 25, 2010, became the highest-grossing movie in history.
→ It broke several box office records and on January 25, 2010, became the highest-grossing film in history. (To reduce repetition of "film", potential WP:EGG and mention of "movie" (which I believe is discouraged).)- Nitpick-y but:
