From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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 a 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. It is recommended that the list have no other open discussions.
  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:

List of Billboard number-one country songs of 2024

[edit]
Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:34, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well this has certainly been a banner year for country music in the mainstream, with every song to top the Hot Country Songs chart also topping the overall Hot 100 and one of them on the verge of breaking the all-time record for the longest number one on the latter. Your feedback will as ever be gratefully received and swiftly acted upon. And yes, there are still three and a half chart weeks left of the year, but you know you can count on me to do the relevant updates :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:34, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll do image, prose, and sourcing just to make it easier for other reviewers!

  • Images all properly licensed and appropriate for the article.
  • Lede prose is solid; my only potential advice is that the last paragraph is a bit too lengthy to scan easily, but that's ultimately my personal taste.
  • Citation #11 is misformatted, resulting in it breaking. I checked the Rolling Stone coverage and a random smattering of the Billboard cites and everything seems above-board there.

@ChrisTheDude: Looks like there's just the one cite to fix. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 17:19, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Generalissima: - I fixed the ref and moved one sentence (cut down slightly) from the last paragraph to the one before -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:00, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks great- Support. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 18:03, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I have read the list twice and, indeed, it is too perfectly written for me to find something to quibble about. It's a direct support! Very interesting that Beyonce held the top spot on a country chart for so long, lol.--NØ 19:33, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Mingxing films

[edit]
Nominator(s):  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:09, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets all of the criteria. Mingxing was something of a big deal in Republican Shanghai, and this list provides readers with a list of their film productions as well as the necessary context to follow the evolution of its filmic output. I'm a bit rusty on tables, but I believe that it meets all accessibility guidelines.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:09, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Wolverine

[edit]

Here are my comments:

  • The Mingxing Film Company, based in Shanghai, the Republic of China, released 174 narrative films between its establishment in 1922 and 1938, the year after its closure. I think this can better be phrased. Perhaps you should say something like "The Mingxing Film Company was an entertainment company that was based in Shanghai, the Republic of China (in what is now China) between 1922 and 1938. The company released 174 narrative films" or something like that. The last part of the sentence also makes no sense to me; did the company close its doors in 1937 or 1938?
    • Rephrased to "Mingxing was a film production company based in Shanghai, the Republic of China. It released 174 narrative films between its establishment in 1922 and 1938, the year after it closed in the face of the Second Sino-Japanese War." The company's year of disestablishment was 1937; however, its film productions did continue to be released into the following year.
    • As for the years: Per the source, "On 7 July 1937 the full-scale Sino-Japanese war broke out. A month later Shanghai was caught in war and fell into the hands of the Japanese imperial army after a fierce three-month battle, leaving the International Settlement and the French Concession unoccupied until December 1941. Located in the city’s Chinese sector, Mingxing’s new business premises were occupied by the Japanese and used as barracks following the fall of the district. The company virtually ceased operating from then on.166 Nominally it still existed, and traces of its nominal existence were left. After an initial period of war-time chaos, the spring of 1938 saw renewed popular passion for entertainment as the city gradually settled in the new environment. Four Mingxing films produced immediately prior to the war appeared on the screen". In short, Mingxing closed its doors, but the films themselves still had the opportunity to be distributed. The literature tends to use the 1937 date as the date of disestablishment. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:39, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mingxing's fortunes changed I'm not too sure about "fortunes"
  • and was later distributed throughout China Is this not the Republic of China?
  • following the success of Tianyi's Heroine Li Feifei (1925), wuxia (martial arts) films. Following their success, what happened?
  • This expanded to include leftist cinema following the arrival of screenwriters such as Qian Xingcun and Xia Yan, working under pseudonyms, in the 1930s. Not sure what "this" implies and an explanation or a link to "leftist cinema" would be helpful
  • Rephrased to "The company's productions expanded to include leftist cinema following the arrival of screenwriters such as Qian Xingcun and Xia Yan, working under pseudonyms, in the 1930s." I'll make a footnote, because apparently we don't have an article on leftist cinema. In brief, though, it was stories produced by communists with explicitly pro-proletarian themes. Given that the ruling Kuomintang was actively hunting communists... it took gumption. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:39, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's unnecessary space between the lead and the first section

And that's my lot. Great article, not too much for me to complain about, and if you do have the time I'd really appreciate a review of my nomination here. Thanks, Wolverine X-eye (talk to me) 06:15, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support This looks fine now; thanks for addressing my concerns. Also, please do check out the replies in my nom. Thanks, Wolverine X-eye (talk to me) 11:44, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

30th Annual South African Music Awards

[edit]
Nominator(s): dxneo (talk) 11:28, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The 30th Annual South African Music Awards celebrated the best albums, songs, and music videos. Tyla was the biggest winner of the event. Hosted by Minnie Dlamini, it featured performers from the likes of Nasty C. Every winner was awarded a prize fund for that specific award. Special pings for peer reviewers, PSA and Medxvo. dxneo (talk) 11:28, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of places in Tasmania by population

[edit]
Nominator(s): Steelkamp (talk) 08:00, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is the second list I have nominated in this series, after List of places in the Northern Territory by population, which was recently promoted. There is one major change compared to that list: I have added a list of Significant urban areas as well, which is for urban areas with a population greater than 10,000, which only two places in the Northern Territory met. I have also added some more images to the side, thanks to the nice aerial shots available on Commons. I look forward to all comments. Steelkamp (talk) 08:00, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AP NFL Assistant Coach of the Year Award

[edit]
Nominator(s): Hey man im josh (talk) 19:38, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This the longest I've gone without a nom and I've been itching to make another, so here it is! This is about an award that's given by the Associated Press annually, since 2014, to the top assistant coach in the NFL. This list is based on the similarly promoted lists of AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award, AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award, and AP NFL Most Valuable Player Award. As always, I will do my best to respond to any and all criticism in a timely manner and to address all concerns that are brought up. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:38, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by SounderBruce

[edit]
  • "who regularly follow the NFL" feels a bit strange; should it be "regularly report on the NFL"?
  • Third sentence has a repeated use of "presented"; perhaps it should be reordered as well to put the first use after mentioning where the award is presented.
  • Citation for the last statement in the first paragraph?
  • Last sentence of the second paragraph should mention the year of the award, recipient's position and/or his team.
  • Can the uses of "AP News" in the citations be replaced with "Associated Press"?
  • Citation 3 should use {{cite press release}} and note the AP as the publisher.

Quite the short list, so I don't have much to comment on. SounderBruce 03:08, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, it's my shortest list thus far, but I needed something to shake off the rust lol.
  • "who regularly follow the NFL" feels a bit strange; should it be "regularly report on the NFL"? – Yes, definitely better wording, done.
  • Third sentence has a repeated use of "presented"; perhaps it should be reordered as well to put the first use after mentioning where the award is presented. – I've changed the wording to The ACOY is presented alongside seven other AP awards at the NFL Honors and was first awarded following the 2014 NFL season at the 4th Annual NFL Honors. Let me know if you think think this could be improved upon further.
  • Citation for the last statement in the first paragraph? – While I don't have a citation that explicitly says that, I felt it worth mentioning and fairly obvious based on the table itself.
  • Last sentence of the second paragraph should mention the year of the award, recipient's position and/or his team. – changed to Jim Schwartz, the defensive coordinator of the 2023 Cleveland Browns, is the most recent winner of the award.
  • Can the uses of "AP News" in the citations be replaced with "Associated Press"? – You know, I'm actually glad you mentioned that. I felt iffy about listing AP News, and I do feel "Associated Press" would be better, so I'm glad to see this suggestion. I've made the change.
  • Citation 3 should use {{cite press release}} and note the AP as the publisher. – Done.
Thank you so much for the review @SounderBruce, I very much appreciate it! Hey man im josh (talk) 15:09, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Made a few little tweaks, but it all looks good. Support. SounderBruce 23:39, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]

I support all the above, plus....

  • Is there an appropriate link for "assistant coach"? or at the very least for "coach"?
  • Also links for "offensive or defensive coordinators"? I for one don't know what these are
  • "following the seasons which they won the award for" => "following the seasons for which they won the award" would read more elegantly I think
  • "remained assistant coaches for at least another season after winning the award but were also hired as head coaches" => "remained assistant coaches for at least another season after winning the award but were subsequently hired as head coaches" (current wording makes it sound like they were hired as head coaches while also continuing to work as assistant coaches, which I presume isn't what is meant)
  • For accessibility reasons I don't believe you can use just bold to highlight something (in this case who won the SuperBowl). Use colour/symbol
  • That's what I got :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:28, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is there an appropriate link for "assistant coach"? or at the very least for "coach"? – Wikilinked to coach (sport) in the opening sentence.
  • Also links for "offensive or defensive coordinators"? I for one don't know what these are – Done.
  • "following the seasons which they won the award for" -> "following the seasons for which they won the award" would read more elegantly I think – Ah, yes, definitely!
  • "remained assistant coaches for at least another season after winning the award but were also hired as head coaches" -> "remained assistant coaches for at least another season after winning the award but were subsequently hired as head coaches" (current wording makes it sound like they were hired as head coaches while also continuing to work as assistant coaches, which I presume isn't what is meant) – Ah yeah, definitely not what I meant, your wording is definitely an improvement and has been implemented.
  • For accessibility reasons I don't believe you can use just bold to highlight something (in this case who won the SuperBowl). Use colour/symbol – I hadn't considered whether bold would be called out or not, but I certainly want to make sure it's accessible, so I've swapped it to a fill and an asterisks.
Thank you very much for the review and helpful feedback @ChrisTheDude! I hope I've addressed everything :) Hey man im josh (talk) 15:18, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of music released by Moldovan artists that has charted in major music markets

Nominator(s): Cartoon network freak (talk) 14:46, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because it offers a well-written and well-sourced overview over the most successful Moldovan music released. It is the second list of its kind here on Wikipedia after the FL List of music released by Romanian artists that has charted in major music markets. I am happy for any comment.

[edit]
  • "was group O-Zone." => "was the group O-Zone."
  • "was the first song performed in native Romanian" => "was the first song performed in Romanian"
  • "and reaching number 72 in Japan and number 16 on the US Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart." - not to be biased towards my native UK, but I would think that getting to number 3 in the UK is a far more noteworthy achievement than either of these
  • "reaching numbers eight, 19 and 16, respectively." => "reaching numbers 8, 19 and 16, respectively."
  • That's all I got :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:14, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of murinines

[edit]
Nominator(s): PresN 19:02, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bats list #7 and mammal list #48: Murininae. The list is small and the bats are smaller: this third list of four in Vespertilionidae has only 35 species to keep track of, all of which are pretty similar (though the guy in the lede image has some neat silver coloring). As always, this list reflects formatting discussions from prior lists as well as the scientific consensus on the family. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 19:02, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - I got nothing :-) I notice that the lead image is a duplicate of one of the ones in the table - it might be nice to use an image for the lead that isn't also in the table but this isn't a deal-breaker, not least because I expect that the reason is that there aren't any other tube-nosed bat images available..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:02, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Image Comments
  • ALT text is not used consistently.
  • All bat images have alt text; the maps have a stock alt text because they have visible captions instead for the same purpose. Is anything else missing alt text?
  • Dobson images could be marked PD-100 to better serve readers in countries with longer terms of copyright.
  • Done
  • What are the source files for the maps? Seems to only be a problem with the ones by A proietti.
  • No idea; they appear to have been created based on maps in the books named (Menkhorst & Knight, 2001, for example, is A Field Guide to the Mammals of Australia, while Flannery 1995 is either Mammals of the South-west Pacific & Moluccan Islands or Mammals of New Guinea (he split the work into two volumes, published in the same year))
  • Unclear, which is why I didn't mention it in the caption
@Chris Woodrich Hi! Since these images were made for the related pages on it.wikipedia.org, the color corresponding to the subspecies can be found there. Some, however, are transcribed in the remarks. Available for any comparison. Greetings! A proietti (talk) 14:46, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
i've inserted this info in the image remarks! A proietti (talk) 15:56, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@A proietti: Thanks! Do you remember where you got the base blank map image from? --PresN 16:04, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately not. Certainly from Commons, .svg format, different map projections which I then modified in .png format. They are more than 10 years old, I had slightly dated software at that time A proietti (talk) 16:12, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't see any verification, but the image isn't that useful, so removed.
  • Prose:
  • "Like all bats, murinines are capable of true and sustained flight, and have wing lengths ranging from 2 cm (1 in) to 6 cm (2 in)." -- Wingspan doesn't apply to all bats; might be better with the previous sentence.
  • Split into two sentences
  • Almost no murinines have population estimates, though two species—the Da Lat tube-nosed bat and Ryukyu tube-nosed bat—are categorized as endangered species, and two species—the Bala tube-nosed bat and gloomy tube-nosed bat—are categorized as critically endangered. - Any way of avoiding the repetition of "species"? — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:31, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Removed first species, it should be clear from the aside that we mean two species, not two individual bats.
@Crisco 1492: Addressed. --PresN 23:06, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of World Heritage Sites in Kazakhstan

Nominator(s): Tone 14:37, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kazakhstan has 6 WHS and 13 sites on the tentative list. Standard style. It seems that now the standard minimum length is 8 items in total, and I am still keeping personal limit to at least 3 sites on the main list. Tone 14:37, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]
  • "TThree sites are transnational" - typo
  • "Even if the mausoleum remains partially unfinished," => "Although the mausoleum remains partially unfinished,"
  • "Silk Road is an ancient network of trade routes" => "The Silk Road is an ancient network of trade routes"
  • "started forming in the 2nd century BCE" - earlier you just used "BC"
  • "represents different stages of history of Turkic peoples" => "represents different stages of the history of the Turkic peoples"
  • "as and later the centre of the Kazakh khans ." - don't think that "as" should be there, also there's a random space before the full stop
  • "The mosques are named after the local Sufi saints are popular pilgrimage sites" - this doesn't make sense. I think what you mean is "The mosques are named after the local Sufi saints and are popular pilgrimage sites"
  • "The archaeological excavations of the tombs, kurgans, uncovered" => "The archaeological excavations of the tombs, called kurgans, uncovered"
  • That's what I got :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:28, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • You've changed one item but not in the way I was expecting. Can I just check if "The mosques are named after the local Sufi saints and popular pilgrimage sites" is correct? Currently this wording indicates that some of the mosques are named after saints and some of the mosques are named after pilgrimage sites. I don't think this is what you mean, but maybe I am wrong....? I think what you mean is "The mosques are named after the local Sufi saints and are popular pilgrimage sites" (i.e. all the mosques are named after saints and the mosques are pilgrimage sites) - can you confirm.....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:26, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have (almost) run out of Seattle sports season lists, so I have decided to start looking at my sports from a level up, at the league level. MLS is almost finished with its 29th season and has had a well-documented history; this list was completely redone in a manner similar to the WNBA seasons list I made earlier this year.

With my profound interest and supporting of the Buffalo Sabres, I'd though I would do my duty and make this a featured list. Unfortunately for my beloved Sabres, they have gone on a 13-year postseason drought, which leads to some interesting statistics and backlash. This is my first rodeo, but hopefully won't be my last.

This review is based off this version of the page.

Source review: Passed

  • Reliable enough for the information being cited
  • Consistent date formatting
  • Consistent and proper reference formatting
  • Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
  • Spot checked that sources match what they are being cited for

Feedback:

  • Your citation wikilinking style is unclear to me. Are you intending to only link the first time a source is mentioned?
Not sure but it doesn't matter. Should be consistent now.
  • Ref 1 – Link doesn't work, might need to be tweaked
Done, changed url status to dead.
Done.
  • Refs 2 and 3 – Inconsistent formatting. Better to just use Hockey Reference as the website on both with no publisher listed
Done.
  • Ref 6 – The reference should be marked as subscription access, you can do with the |access=subscription parameter
Done.
  • Ref 8 – Is this the newest version of the record book that's available? NFL teams often have a pretty detailed media guide they release, and I can't find one for the Sabres, but I did find this for the Penguins as an example of what I'd personally look for if I was doing an NHL team seasons list.
The most recent version was published in 2018 and then discontinued. Replaced.
  • Ref 9 – Link to HockeyDB as a website instead of "The Internet Hockey Database" as the publisher
Done.
  • Refs 11, 13, and 20 – Need to be tagged as subscription access
Done.
Done.
  • Refs 14 and 17 – Is there a reason ESPN is listed as the publisher instead of website?
Not that I am aware of, changed to website.
Done.
  • Ref 16 – Link redirects when clicked, mark as dead or update link
Done.

  • "won zero Stanley Cup titles" - this reads a little oddly to me. I would be tempted to say "and reached the Stanley Cup finals twice, losing both times"
Done.
  • "losing the finals in 6 games" => "losing the finals in six games"
Done.
  • "Over the next 10 seasons, the Sabres made a postseason appearance" - they made just one postseason appearance in those 10 seasons? Or do you mean they made one every season? If so, I would say "Over the next 10 seasons, the Sabres made a postseason appearance every year"
Done.
  • "lost the series to the New York Islanders in 5 games" => "lost the series to the New York Islanders in five games"
Done.
  • "For the first time since the 1973–74 season, the Sabres failed to qualify for the playoffs, missing the point cutoff by 4 points." - when was this?
Added season which required a rewording of the sentence.
  • "beginning an eight-year postseason appearance streak. Despite the postseason appearance streak" - somewhat repetitive. I would start the second sentence with simply "During this period"
Done.
  • "starting their most successful postseason appearance streak, lasting for five years. Compared to the previous eight-year postseason appearance streak" - again, this is quite repetitive. Suggest shortening the start of the second sentence to simply "Compared to previous streak"
Done.
  • "in every season minus the 1999–2000 season" => "in every season with the exception of the 1999–2000 season"
Done.
  • "The 1999 playoff run would be the last appearance in the Stanley Cup finals for the Sabres as of the 2023–24 season" => "The 1999 playoff run is the most recent appearance in the Stanley Cup finals for the Sabres as of the 2023–24 season"
Done.
  • "The Sabres would face the Dallas Stars in the 1999 Stanley Cup Finals," => "The Sabres faced the Dallas Stars in the 1999 Stanley Cup Finals,"
Done.
  • "a series that they would lose in six, albeit in dubious fashion" => "a series that they lost in six, albeit in dubious fashion"
Done.
  • "scored with his skate in the crease" - no idea what this means although it sounds painful. Is there an appropriate wikilink for "skate in the crease" or simply "crease", whichever is appropriate.....?
Linked crease.
  • "After returning from the 2004–05 lockout, the Sabres had made it back to the postseason" => "After returning from the 2004–05 lockout, the Sabres made it back to the postseason"
Done.
  • "where they would lose to the Senators in five" => "where they lost to the Senators in five"
Done.
  • "The Sabres would win the Northeast division in the 2009–10 season and move onto the playoffs" => "The Sabres won the Northeast division in the 2009–10 season and moved onto the playoffs" (see WP:WOULDCHUCK for why it's very rarely necessary to say that something in the past "would" happen)
Done.
  • "The same fate would happen next year" => "The same fate would happen the following year" ("next year" is 2025)
Done.
  • "where they would make the playoffs and get eliminated in the first round" => "when they made the playoffs and got eliminated in the first round"
Done.
  • "this time by the Philadelphia Flyers in 7" => "this time by the Philadelphia Flyers in seven" (to be consistent with all other similar usages)
Done.
  • That's what I got on the prose.

List of historic places in Clutha District

Nominator(s): Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 07:05, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another New Zealand historic place list, and so soon!(Don't worry, I got clearance from Josh!) This one is quite a bit bigger than my others so far, clocking in at 63 sites. A bunch of these, however, are middens where there's not much info beyond their location. A lot of the Clutha District history deals with its 19th century gold rush, and since then it has basically remained a sleepy agricultural region. Hope you all enjoy!

Green Bay Packers all-time roster

[edit]
Nominator(s): « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:30, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Trying this again. A few important things to note: (1) this list follows the format for all other NFL All-Time Rosters (see {{List of NFL players}} for the others). (2) These lists are quite large (this one is over 1,800 entries) and grows larger every season. To keep things manageable from an article size perspective and ease for updating, ancillary details like position are not included. These however can be found in other lists where those ancillary details are more important (i.e. List of Green Bay Packers first-round draft picks provides a person's college). (3) For somewhat of a precedent, Outline of lichens provides a recent FLC example of a list that is mostly just the mere listing of the list entries. I believe that list and this one meet the intent of WP:FLCR 3(a). I welcome any feedback and as always will work to address comments quickly. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:30, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of songs recorded by the Pogues

[edit]
Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:52, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After countless lists of number ones, I thought I would try something different for my next FLC. I'd just been listening to the new 40th anniversary deluxe edition of the Pogues' debut album and decided to have a go at this one. I added a lead, images, and (I think) pretty much doubled the size of the list by adding all the songs that were not on the original versions of their seven studio albums. A couple of things I was not 100% certain about (and couldn't really find any guidance on) and am happy to change if people think I should:

  • Many songs were released only on singles (this is a band whose entire recording career took place when music was actually released physically, kids ) but later added to re-issued versions of albums anything up to 20 years later. I showed the album for these as "none" as their first release was not on an album, but I can change that and show the album (maybe with "20XX re-issue" in brackets) if that would be better.
  • Several dozen songs here were unreleased until they appeared in a 2008 box set. For all of these I showed the date as 2008 as that is when they were first released, but I can change that to the date they were recorded, although this might be inconsistent with others as (for example) all the tracks on an album released in January 1988 (as one of theirs was) were almost certainly not recorded in 1988.

Let me know your thoughts on the above and on anything else you think needs fixing. I've never worked on one of these lists before so there may be quite a lot that needs finessing...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:52, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NØ

[edit]
  • The band seems to be currently active according to their article, so should the introductory sentence say "have recorded" instead of "recorded"?
  • "which centred primarily on drinking culture and the seedier side of London life" - Is there a simpler term than seedier that might be easier for a general audience to understand? Although, personally I love the jargon, lol.
  • "If I Should Fall from Grace with God (1988) incorporated a wider of range of musical styles, including Turkish and Spanish influences on the tracks "Turkish Song of the Damned" and "Fiesta" respectively, and songs written by newer band members Philip Chevron and Terry Woods." - Just "wider range" should probably work. Also, there should probably be a comma before "respectively"
  • "After the 1996 album Pogue Mahone, which included versions of songs originally recorded by Ronnie Lane and Bob Dylan" - I would say "cover versions" instead of just versions
  • "The band also recorded songs not included on their seven studio albums, including many which appeared as the B-sides of singles." - "The band also recorded songs that did not appear on their seven studio albums, including many which appeared as the B-sides of singles." for minor repetition avoidance
  • "They contributed original songs to the soundtracks of the films Sid and Nancy and Straight to Hell" - maybe the years the films were released could be included in parenthesis

Municipalities of Morelos

[edit]
  • "The largest municipality by land area is Tlaquiltenango which spans 543.90 km2 (210.00 sq mi), and the smallest is Hueyapan with 19.20 km2 (7.41 sq mi)." I recommend commas be placed like so: "The largest municipality by land area is Tlaquiltenango, which spans 543.90 km2 (210.00 sq mi), and the smallest is Hueyapan, with 19.20 km2 (7.41 sq mi)."
  • Done
  • Cuautla in the lead should be linked.
  • Done
  • "responsible for providing all the public services for their constituents". Is it really true that all public services are provided by the municipality. The following sentences seem to say that the state and federal governments provide education, emergency fire and medical services, environmental protection and maintenance of monuments and historical landmarks. Could this be changed to ""responsible for providing public services for their constituents"?
  • Done - this is much better wording, thanks!
  • "On November 9, 2017, the state legislature approved the creation of four indigenous municipalities (Coatetelco, Xoxocotla, Hueyapan and Tetelcingo), effective on January 1, 2019. However, due to objections by authorities in Cuautla, it was decided on July 26, 2018 that Tetelcingo would not be included in the list of new municipalities." This should be reworded to say the most important part up front: that these are the newest municipalities in Morelos. Otherwise one wonders why four seemingly random municipalities are being mentioned.
  • Done - this is a good suggestion, I think I reworded it correctly
  • That's a good way to word it.
  • The incorporation date for the three municipalities created on January 1, 2019 should be sourced in the table as well. The current source at the column heading only goes as far as 1995.

  • "Tetelcingo would not be included in the list of new municipalities" - this is slightly confusing as it sounds like the municipality was still created, it just wasn't included on some list somewhere. So was it in fact not created at all?
  • Fixed wording.
  • Photo captions don't need full stops as they are not sentences
  • Fixed captions with better wording as well
  • "the oldest date in which the municipality is referred to is included" => "the earliest year in which the municipality is referred to is listed" would read much better
  • Fixed, agree that's much better wording.

  • "Chivas USA introduced their introductory" - can you change one of these words so the language is less repetitive?
  • "at a press-conference on September 23, 2004" - there is no hyphen in "press conference"
  • "and with the team at a 1-8-1 record, " => "and, with the team at a 1-8-1 record, "
  • can you clarify within the article what a "1-8-1 record" is? To me, as a European, it means one win, eight draws, and one defeat, but it appears that in America it means one win, one draw and eight defeats
  • "he became team's sporting director" => "he became the team's sporting director"
  • There's an issue with the ref template after "losing in the first round each time"
  • "Before hiring their next coach, both Shawn Hunter (the chief executive) and Stephen Hamilton (the vice president of soccer operations) departed the club" - Hunter and Hamilton left the club but then hired its next coach? That doesn't make sense. I think the initial clause needs changing, as presumably the subject of that clause is the club.....
  • "with the team in last in the Western Conference" => "with the team in last place in the Western Conference"
  • "a lawsuit against the club alleging discrimination for not being Latino." => "a lawsuit against the club alleging that they were discriminated against for not being Latino."
  • "Sanchez Sola not always followed" - as this is apparently a direct quote, can I just confirm that the statement contained this grammatical error?

  • There needs to be a comma after Carson, California
  • Disastrous in the heading seems a little too much editorializing. Just "Debut season"
  • All the records need to have en dashes (i.e. 1-8-1 should be 1–8–1) I would recommend {{Win-loss record}} actually
  • end of the season, he announced comma isn't needed
  • within a month, but was hired as the manager comma isn't needed
  • national team, and stepped down comma isn't needed
  • one season, and was fired comma isn't needed
  • filed a lawsuit against the club alleging that they were for not being Latino. they were what? "Fired"?
  • as well as by Chivas USA." quote mark goes before the period
  • to a 3-6-12 record, and on comma isn't needed
  • its last match, and it ceased operations the next day --> its last match, ceasing operations the next day
  • Match results contain all league games as well as MLS playoff matches. "as well as" should just be "and"
  • The use of {{Abbr}} for "Win%" isn't correct. I think you are shooitng for a footnote here, which can be done using {{sfn}} and {{Notelist}}

  • In the late 1620s, a peasant uprising erupted in northern China – link to Late Ming peasant rebellions.
  • A total of sixteen emperors ruled over China proper for 276 years. During their reign, China experienced a long period of economic growth and political stability. Specify that this refers to the Ming dynasty. (Philosophical note: I believe paragraphs and most sentences in the lead should be able to stand on their own, especially since search engine previews tend to take them out of context, so I think making them technically correct is important.)
  • continued to rule over the south of the country – I would prefer "continued to rule over southern China". The definition of country is very vague. It's okay that you use the phrase again later in the paragraph.
  • To defeat the rebels, the government troops in the north invited the Manchu-led Eight Banner armies of the Qing dynasty to come to the Central Plains. The Manchus then occupied northern China in the same year. "the government troops in the north" – clarify. I think this is a summary of the Battle of Shanhai Pass that could be misleading. Wu Sangui, for better or worse, is seen as a rogue general. The current wording suggests that the Ming government somehow condoned his decision. The use of "invited" is also probably inaccurate, phrasing using "coerced" is probably better. "Eight Banner armies" could be shortened to "Eight Banners", though this is not obligatory. Northern China should be linked. I prefer "that same year" over "in the same year".
  • a similar complex in Nanjing should link to Ming Palace.
  • according to the Hongwu Emperor's decision is vague and begs the question "which decision?" I think there's a name for it, it's been a while since I've read about this period but he did set down some kind of constitution/code of conduct for future emperors. Maybe it's the Great Ming Code I'm thinking of.
  • the successor to the throne was always the eldest son of the emperor and empress, or his heir if he had none, followed by younger sons of the empress. I'm not sure what you mean by "his heir if he had none". Could you clarify this, please? Does it mean that if the eldest son had a son and died, that grandson would be the successor? Also, something in this section should link to or be replaced with Taizi – probably the first use of "successor" or "heir".
@Toadspike I have removed some content from the article. In the near future, it may be included in another more suitable article or a new article specifically about the Ming emperors. Min968 (talk) 04:21, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

General point: The lead seems pretty long to me. Some of the content (e.g. "Court and family", "Burial traditions") seems much more suited for the main Emperor of China article or a new Ming emperors article. I don't mind much for now, but in the long run that would be the best move.

You might want to put in something about the list's scope, given that back in the Hambledon days I believe they - as well as scratch sides - sometimes adopted the name of "Hampshire". Maybe say that it only covers the period from the official formation of the current county club? JH (talk page) 16:12, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello hello, the name is Wolverine X-eye, a first-timer. I am nominating this for featured list because it meets the criteria. The list is about pangolins, perhaps one of the weirdest creatures out there. They have rough scales around their body, and are the most trafficked animals in the world according to some estimates.

Welcome to FLC, Wolverine X-eye!

This is a new one on me, a FLC that hasn't even been patrolled by NPP yet...

  • Your lead image needs alt text per MOS:ALT.
    • Done
  • Is there a reason there isn't a "See Also" section? While not required, it would be useful. WP:SEEALSO
  • Does Commons have a category for this family? I found commons:Category:Manidae after a search. If so, could you add {{Commons category-inline}} to a new External Links section at the bottom of the article so readers can view more pictures if they would like? MOS:ELLAYOUT
    • Done
  • According to Talk:List of manids, this article is classified as a redirect. Is there a reason for that, or should we classify it as list-class?
    • It's list-class for me

And finally, this article was blanked and then reverted five minutes later, less than an hour before I started this review. I'm not sure if this violates WP:FL? criteria #6, since it was a one-time thing. ~ Matthewrb Let's connect · Here to help 20:49, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

At eight extant species, this list meets the minimum entry requirement for FLC. However, I have several major concerns about the overall quality of this article.

  • First off, there was a ninth proposed species published on in 2023, this should be discussed briefly in the lede.
  • The lede also generally needs a good copy-edit; I may do so after my more major concerns are addressed.
  • Most of all: I am concerned that the prehistoric species and taxonomy thereof was copied uncritically from elsewhere on Wikipedia, because those articles are rife with known issues up to an including WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. I suggest going straight to the sources to ensure the proper higher-level taxonomy is being followed.
  • Speaking of the prehistoric species, cases like this is exactly why {{Paleospecies table}} was created. I suggest using it.

I am nominating this for featured list because I have significantly expanded its content to meet the reasons why it was removed from its previous FL status.

Comments

[edit]
  • "however, by 1997, the American team had improved" => "by 1997, however, the American team had improved"
  • "and in their head-to-head match up" - pretty sure (unless this is an ENGVAR thing) that "match up" should have a hyphen
  • "at the Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea" - seems weird to link the whole of "the Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang" to the article on the games. I would link just the first three words to that article and link the city name to the article on the city (especially as I don't believe it is a well-known city on a global scale)
  • I know they are mentioned in the lead but I think a key above the tables for abbreviations like "USHHOF" wouldn't hurt, especially as in that particular example you don't show the abbreviation in the lead
  • External links should be below refs, not above them

Thanks for your help, Matthewrb.
I have already fixed the CS1 error. Then I started looking into the Commons Category thing. Sure enough, there's no CommonsCat for Ice Hockey players. Can you help me understand the difference between a Wikipedia Category and a Commons Category? Would creating a category on English WP automatically create a similar category on Commons? Are they two completely separate things that would need to be maintained separately? Is the Commons Category linked by Wikidata (which is something else I need to learn more about)?
I'll look further into the a11y fixes later.
--MikeVitale 12:15, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for fixing the CS1 error!
Wikimedia Commons is a sister project, so creating a category on en.wiki would not transfer to Commons. The goal of having a Commons category would allow our readers to find images of all of the women's ice hockey players from the US, since Commons is a free media repository. I'm not familiar how commons categories link to Wikidata, as I only have really worked on article changes in WD. For more info, here are some links:

I found commons:Category:Olympic ice hockey players from the United States and added it as a sub-category of commons:Category:Olympic sportspeople from the United States by sport.

@Matthewrb I've added the {{commons category}}, and I've further added all members of the US Olympic teams through the years who already have their own category on commons to the category.
Is there anything else that needs to be done? --MikeVitale 02:57, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@MikeVitale: Looks amazing! One final thing: your scope="row" on the tables aren't working properly.

  • The Canadians again won gold in Sochi at the 2014 Winter Olympics, in a 3–2 overtime win against the US team. comma isn't needed.
  • Link "shootout" (Overtime (ice hockey)#Shootout). Also, I don't think shootout should have the hyphen.
  • National teams are coordinated by USA Hockey and players are chosen by the team's management staff. recommend moving this to the first paragraph after the second sentence

Timeline of the 2019 Pacific typhoon season

[edit]
Nominator(s): —JCMLuis 💬 13:17, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The 2019 Pacific typhoon season was the costliest season ever recorded, due to several very destructive tropical cyclones that occurred. The most destructive of them all was Typhoon Hagibis, which made landfall over Japan in October and became the most damaging typhoon on record at the time, while also directly killing 118 people. Besides Hagibis, Typhoon Lekima brought havoc over China in August, becoming the second-costliest typhoon in the nation's history at the time, and Typhoon Faxai made landfall over Japan in September, becoming the costliest disaster of the year until Hagibis. In terms of activity, the season was above-average, with 29 named storms forming, of which 17 became typhoons. The season also featured the most powerful typhoon to occur in February, that being Typhoon Wutip.

This is (probably) the first attempt to get a Pacific typhoon season timeline into FL status. While making this timeline, I asked Dylan620 (talk · contribs), who made several Pacific hurricane season timelines that became featured lists, for help with the formatting and alternative texts. I will try my best to respond to any concerns with the timeline. —JCMLuis 💬 13:17, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support, with the caveat that I have helped out at certain points (as Luis mentions in his nomination statement). I'd argue that Luis's work with this timeline is more impressive than the EPAC and Atlantic timeline FLs I've helped to promote this year – not only because of the sheer quantity of systems (the WPAC is typically the most active of all the world's tropical cyclone basins), but because this timeline thoroughly includes information from not just one, but two major warning agencies.

Comment

[edit]
  • The 2019 Pacific typhoon season consisted of the events that occurred in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation over the western North Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. --> The 2019 Pacific typhoon season was the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation over the western North Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea, primarily in 2019. or something similar.
    • Changed. I'm assuming the "primarily in 2019" part is because of Pabuk forming in 2018.
  • which wrought damage to Japan wrought comes across as a little unencyclopedic. "Inflicted" or "caused"?
    • Changed to inflicted.

  • city street track in the centre of Pau, in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department of southwestern France. the sentence structure here is weird for me, but maybe that is because I am American and just used to "CITY, STATE". Maybe adding a commune would achieve what you are trying to say in a little bit clearer way?
  • The ACBB was first inspired to hold the race in 1933 after the success of the Monaco Grand Prix as well as other races in Nice and Nîmes I believe you need a comma after "Prix"
  • on a podium seems superfluous and I would recommend deleting
  • for the longest wait between two victories change "wait" to "period" or something similar, implies he was just waiting around
  • Signature have the most wins of any team with seven shouldn't it be "has". Its a team, right? So "The Signature Team has".

Gen Hoshino discography

[edit]
Nominator(s): IanTEB (talk) 13:52, 21 September 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.

    @MPGuy2824: Thanks for the comments.

    Since I'm not particularly knowledgable on Wikicode, I don't quite know what this has changed My fault, it is for accessibility reasons (for screen readers). I should have linked to PresN's standard comment here. While we are at it, I notice that some of the header cells of rows have scope as "col", when it should be "row" (e.g. "Stranger in Budokan" in Live albums). Do make sure that you check this in all tables. I've found no issues with the prose, so this is all that is remaining to get a support from me. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 01:55, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @MPGuy2824: I really appreciate the explanation; I'll definitely apply this whenever I work on tables in the future. I'm unable to find any use of the "col" scope for header cells (including Stranger in Budokan, which is preceded by ! scope="row" |), unless I'm misunderstanding your comment. IanTEB (talk) 03:56, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm unable to find any use of the "col" scope for header cells (including Stranger in Budokan) I probably got confused by an earler use of that title, in a footnote of a column header. Support on prose and table accessibility. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 16:16, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
