Now the Laureus set is complete, we're back to a few more randoms, and this is one such list. A highly notable aviation award with a long history, hopefully you'll all agree I've improved it from where I found it, to the point of it being considered worthy of FL status. As always, I'll work my hardest and quickest to address any comments anyone may raise. Cheers. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:19, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Support – You're right I'm sure it's not that big a deal. I'll see if other editors mention it. As always, great job TRM! Care to check out my new FLC? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 19:27, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I made a few basic grammar fixes ("myriad of" is not actually wrong). My only suggestion is to reword "cited" a few times; the 36 instances of the word feels quite repetitive as you read the winner notes. Reywas92Talk 07:06, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

;Comments from MWright96* "Marion Blakey, former administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration and chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board was honored in 2013; and the 2016 recipient was Colleen Barrett, President Emeritus of Southwest Airlines." - Shouldn't the semi-colon be replaced by a comma?
Those were all the issues I discovered on a first glance. Nothing overly major here as usual. MWright96 (talk) 11:32, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I used my previous nomination, Municipalities of Colima, as a template for this list, keeping similar format and sourcing. I believe it meets featured list requirements but I am very open to any suggestions for improvement. This list is part of a greater goal of creating a featured quality list for all municipalities, adding to my previous 16 promoted lists of municipalities all using similar formatting, making them look more consistent and encyclopedic. Thanks for helping me on this project. Mattximus (talk) 01:39, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Support – Honestly can't find anything, basing everything off your other list. Great job! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 16:50, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comments by Dudley
[edit]- "The largest municipality by population is Aguascalientes, the state capital, with 877,190 residents, whereas the smallest municipality by population is San José de Gracia with 8,896 residents." No need to repeat "municipality by population".
- Worth mentioning that Aguascalientes has over two-thirds of the population?
- Ref 6 is bare url.
- Looks fine. Dudley Miles (talk) 11:52, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your suggestions. I made all of them, but left in "by population" since I now broke it into two sentences due to your second point. What do you think? Mattximus (talk) 01:58, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Both of my current FLCs each have two supports and no outstanding comments so I think I'm safe to nominate this one. Next up in my "songs recorded by..." series is George Harrison. One of the best musicians of all time, I built this list from this to where it is now (with a little help from a couple other editors). Looking forward to any comments or concerns anyone has. Happy editing! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 19:07, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments
- Period missing at the end of alt texts.
- Done.
- Remove 'as a musician' bit from the opening sentence, as its already mention.
- Done.
- 'T' should be in caps while mentioning The Beatles.
- Actually 'the' is lowercase per MOS:THEMUSIC as well as consensus per the closures from this RfC and this RfM.
- "Harrison released two solo albums:
themainly instrumental Wonderwall Music".- Done.

Comment by Dudley
[edit]- "Backed by Harrison's successful rendition by James Ray's "Got My Mind Set on You"" I am not sure what this means.
- Should be 'of'. Changed it.
- "the Beatles' retrospective "When We Was Fab"," retrospective does not sound like the right word to me.
- I didn't think it sounded right either. Changed it to 'reflective'. Or should it be reflection?
- How about "tribute to the Beatles"?
- Put "the Beatles' tribute" so I'm not saying "THE tribute to THE Beatles" ('The' twice). BeatlesLedTV (talk) 23:06, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- " that ultimately lead to his death" led to his death
- Done.
- I get no link error messages for the Castleman and Christgau books.
- I have fixed the Castleman error but the problem with Christgau seems to be that you do not cite it. Dudley Miles (talk) 20:53, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Do we really need two different tables of contents? Everything else looks fine. Courcelles (talk) 22:59, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Courcelles You mean the beginning ToC and then the content box under the heading? I've seen both in most of the "song" lists that are featured. I've used both in the lists I've helped become featured there's been no complaints. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 23:14, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Exactly what I mean, it is strange to go from a lede, to a TOC, to a second, more specific TOC that still contains everything in the first TOC, to finally the list. Courcelles (talk) 23:22, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I definitely don't see the second TOC as a table of contents in that regard, just a navigation aid. I see no problem here at all. The Rambling Man (talk) 23:39, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Same I don't really see a problem either. It's definitely more of a navigation guide. The ToC is automatically generated as well. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 23:43, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments I've reviewed quite a few of these lists and each time there are fewer comments to make as they are at featured quality already. Just a few quibbles:
- "15% of UK output". I think this could use rewording. For example: "15% of the total production of rock in the United Kingdom." Or something a bit more clear. Is "rock" the best term for the mineral extracted from this quarry?
- Revised but did not repeat "rock" as that would make three times in two sentences. The source says crushed rock used for the foundations of roads and buildings, so it is not one specific mineral. Dudley Miles (talk) 15:04, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Batenus livens and anthribus fasciatus... Capitalization should be consistent throughout the article
- "have diverse butterflies" -> "have diverse species of butterflies"?
- These are just minor, I will alredy Support this list based on my review. Mattximus (talk) 14:34, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments from BeatlesLedTV
- Spell out numbers one to twenty in the lead – MOS:NUMERAL. I know it only says one to nine but you have multiple instances of 11, 12, etc. that would look better spelled out. Also spell out 50. On top of that "one hundred" is spelled out once so make sure it's consistent.
- Why is there a large space in the International XI boxes? It's looks like there's supposed to be a flag but isn't.
That's all I got. Great job to you! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 04:32, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi BeatlesLedTV, thank you kindly for the review. I have spelt out the numbers. Also, yes the space is intentional as the International XI does not have a flag. Cheers – Ianblair23 (talk) 12:39, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The next in the series of these, this follows the same format as the FLs England cricket team Test results (1877–1914) and England cricket team Test results (1920–1939). I have hopefully applied all the comments and feedback from those lists into this one, but I'm sure you'll all find plenty to bring up nevertheless!

- I do not like the arrangement of para 3. You cover churches, then secular buildings, then "buildings are associated with the church", which seems an odd way to describe two churches and a former church.

Now that my Barrett list has been promoted and my Beastie Boys FLC has no current outstanding comments and one support, I think I'm safe to nominate this one. I created this list in late November and have solely brought it to where it is now. I was surprised to see that Daft Punk didn't have a song list, as they are incredibly influential and extremely recognizable. I think this list meets the FLC criteria and is quality enough to become featured. All comments and concerns are appreciated. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:02, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Source review
- Why have you mentioned the ISSN number in the second reference?
- Ref 3 is missing the publisher's name, also is doesn't seem to qualify WP:RS.
- Replaced it.
- Pitchfork shouldn't be in italics.
- Pitchfork as a website goes in italics; the publisher Pitchfork Media does not go in italics.

Comments by Dudley
[edit]- "After beginning in 1992 as the band Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz,[2] the group disbanded". This does not sound right to me as it seems to say that Daft Punk started as Darlin'. Maybe "The duo started as Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz in 1992, but the group disbanded in [date]"
- Done.
- "The band's next album, the concept album". Repetition of "album" Maybe "Next was the concept album">
- Done.
- "Since 2013, the duo has collaborated with multiple artists, such as Jay-Z and the Weeknd, being a featured artist on the latter's songs". I am not clear what you are saying here. Who was the featured artist. If the duo, can they be a featured artist, and if Jay-Z, what was it to do with the duo?
- Daft Punk was the featured artist on two songs by the Weeknd, one being "Starboy" (featuring Daft Punk). And basically, Daft Punk and Jay-Z collaborated on an unreleased song called "Computerized" when they were recording Tron: Legacy. I added it to the table.
- You might leave out Jay-Z from the lead as "being a featured artist" might be taken to refer to him, and they only collaborated on an unreleased song. Dudley Miles (talk) 16:19, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks good but I think the lead still needs a bit of work. Dudley Miles (talk) 14:53, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Giants2008 PresN There's now three supports and a source review done. Is this one all good now? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 21:35, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments
"alt=Daft Punk at the premiere of Tron: Legacy in 2010" - don't use the apostrophes here.- "the duo has been extremely influential" - I think this point can be made just as well without the weasel word extremely.
- "Their next single, "Da Funk", was its first commercial success" - its or their?
- "After the success of "Da Funk", Daft Punk released its first studio album Homework in 1997." Same as above
- "Next was the concept album Discovery, was released in 2001." Remove the second was.
- "The album received mixed reviews, with critics mainly focusing on the album's repetitive and minimalist nature" - with + noun + verb+ing is best avoided at FLs.
One general criticism: I think the list is a little single-centric. It needs to mention non-singles (I currently count none); this isn't supposed to be a singles discography. FrB.TG (talk) 21:16, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Support – All good for me. Happy to support. Great job! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 17:20, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – I would recommend a copyedit to first few sentences in the lead to:
- "Lionel Messi is an association footballer who plays as a forward the Argentina national team. Since debuting for Argentina in 2005, Messi has scored 61 goals in 123 international appearances,[1] making him the country's all-time top scorer, surpassing Gabriel Batistuta's record, with a free kick against United States in the semi-final of Copa América Centenario on 21 June 2016.[2][3] He made his debut for Argentina in a 2–1 away win over Hungary on 17 August 2005[4] and scored his his first international goal a year later, in his fifth appearance for his country, against Croatia.[5]"
- I think this directs the reader's focus on the international goals and flows well with the rest of the lead. Hmlarson (talk) 01:24, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you Hmlarson, I've revised per your suggestion. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:36, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Support – I made some additional copyedits to the lead + added alt tags to two images. References and list format look good. Hmlarson (talk) 19:40, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Hmlarson thanks for your edits and your support. If there are any such lists related to women's soccer that we could work on together, or even ones I could just encourage you to nominate on your own, don't hesitate (e.g. List of international goals scored by Kelly Smith...) ! Cheers, The Rambling Man (talk) 20:30, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Funny, I was just exploring other players to work on. List of international goals scored by Christine Sinclair is the only other one I'm aware of currently. On quick glance, the table needs some formatting work and the lead needs expanding - let me know if collaborating on this one might be of interest. One for Smith would be a great addition; Mia Hamm and Marta also came to mind. I'll add them to my list of things to work on. Thanks The Rambling Man. Hmlarson (talk) 20:44, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey Hmlarson, they all sound cool to me, I'm sure you can cope with each nomination on your own though! But if you'd prefer a co-nom (I've got a bit of a clue at FLC), then that's great too. And I love researching the goals etc, for independent RS. Pick one (maybe Sinclair?) and let's go to town on it. Cheers, The Rambling Man (talk) 20:47, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Sinclair it is! Hmlarson (talk) 21:44, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- The third paragraph consists almost entirely of content that can easily be verified simply by looking at the table, for example no reference is needed to prove that Toby Keith had three number ones, or that George Strait ended the year at number one, because you can clearly see it in the table. The only reason why the paragraph above has so many more references is because it consists of content which can't be verified simply by looking at the table..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:31, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I created this list last month because I believe the Beastie Boys have enough songs to have a "songs" list. I modeled it after the Rise Against songs list in terms of the table. I have another FLC at the moment that has one support and many comments so I think I'm safe to nominate this one. I believe this list meets the criteria and is well-written enough to become featured.

- "which marked a style change to a more hip-hop oriented sound" - a change in style?
- you can wiki-link rap.
- "With Rubin's help, Beastie Boys released the singles" - help is a little vague.
- How about "assistance on writing and producing"? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:08, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- "Beastie Boys broke away for Def Jam and moved to California " - from.
- "where they signed with Capitol Records" - might want to rephrase this bit too.
- This one is very hard for me to reword. How about "and signed with Capital Records in California"? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:08, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Again the "help" bit isn't really the best way of putting things.
- How about "with production aid from the Dust Brothers"? This one was a little hard as well because I want to avoid using "assistance" again. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:08, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- You could simply say: "Produced by Dust Brothers...".
- "While initially unsuccessful commercially, Paul's Boutique's reputation has grown significantly, with Rolling Stone in 2013 calling it "the Sgt. Pepper of hip-hop"" - Reads awkwardly, especially the "initially unsuccessful commercially" and the "with Rolling Stone in 2013 calling it " bits.
- How about "commercially unsuccessful on release" and "with it being called the Sgt. Pepper of hip-hop" by Rolling Stone in 2013"? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:08, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- "More diverse than their previous albums, the album was a..." - repetiton; you can use it instead.
- The lead uses the phrase "received positive reviews from critics" too much. See if you can vary the text a bit.
- Not sure if "in respect" is right choice of words.
- How about "out of respect"? BeatlesLedTV (talk) 20:08, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox
- awarded for: Laureus has updated. Should be (or part of):
- Awarded to the sportsperson or team whose performance as a newcomer suggests the greatest potential for an outstanding career or to an established sportsman or sportswoman who produces a significant step-up in class to a considerably higher level of sporting achievement.
Prose
- "...although seven teams have been nominated..." - should be eight, is missing Switzerland Davis Cup team 2015
- Oops, done. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:27, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I swapped the "seven" to eight. JennyOz (talk) 05:15, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Ref 9 (Shipnuck sports illustrated) supporting Garcia v Tiger does not work for me. This does.
- Odd one this, the link was noted above as being dead so I changed it. I wonder if your viewed a cached or old version of the list? I replaced it and tried the link I replaced it with both at work this morning and at home this evening, seems fine to me, could you confirm? The Rambling Man (talk) 20:27, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Ah, that fix happened after I'd started my notes, sorry. I'm not sure how Sports Illustrated/Golf works. Shipnuck originally wrote that piece in 1999 (per SI url above, with a longer title, and per new Golf cite intro) but I'm only confused, not fussed. Verifiability works either way! JennyOz (talk) 05:15, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Poss better pipes - really helpful to readers

- 2008 Tyson gay - Sprint (running)
- 2008 Pistorius - Sprint (running)
- 2010 Cavendish - road and track but his achievements in 2009 were on road, so Road bicycle racing?

- 2017 Leicester City - you used the F.C. in other Laureus list
- Added F.C. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:00, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I added it in table at 2017 as well. Okay? JennyOz (talk) 05:15, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- National teams - I notice you added a "men's" to the Ghana national football team at 2007, and to Fiji sevens and Iceland football teams at 2017. Fully agree with this as their countries also have national women's teams. Was it intentional to not do same for Afghanistan national cricket team (2014) and Chile football (2016)?
- No intention actually, I've clarified (I think) the men's teams where applicable. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:00, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
(Interesting re Pistorios - his 2007 nom for breakthrough in para sprints but his second 'breakthrough' (2012 nom) was for breaking into non-disabled events in 2011. So he was nominated in both Breakthrough and Sportsperson with a Disability (won) in 2012. Nothing to change on this list, just mentioning:) Fascinating fellow.)

Support Comments by JennyOz
- Infobox awarded for - Laureus website now says: Awarded to the sportsman who best demonstrates supreme athletic performance and achievement - such as consecutive or multiple world, continental, international or national and major championship titles or the establishment of world records or best performances.
- Updated. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Prose
- Laurus site no longer speaks of 2000 journalists, says: "A NOMINATIONS PANEL OF THE WORLD’S LEADING SPORTS EDITORS, WRITERS AND BROADCASTERS VOTE TO CREATE A SHORTLIST OF SIX NOMINATIONS" (sorry, their caps not mine.) (And the six nominations would seem to mean 'up to six nominations'.)
- Updated, let me know it's okay as I'll need to change all the other Laureus lists accordingly. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Yep, your update is spot on. - the panel of editors, writers, broadcasters is for Sportsman, Sportswoman, Team, Breakthrough and Comeback. Action and Disability noms are by "Specialist Panels". As for the discretionaries, Lifetime, Spirit and Exceptional - they seem purely Academy decisions. (Hey, where'd Exceptional Achievement come from, brand new? (Maybe it's to recognise TRM for the upcoming set? Will be a list of one:) When you update the others, check for the select/selects too? JennyOz (talk) 07:30, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks JennyOz, take a look at the summary tables on Laureus World Sports Awards, they tell you about these curious new(ish) awards... not enough for their own lists, so covered in the parent article.... The Rambling Man (talk) 13:42, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Hmm, I was aware of those Discretionary awards, except for Exceptional. Somehow hadn't noticed that one before. Now, talking of Laureus World Sports Awards did you notice that Laureus have also updated their photo of the statuette? It is more colourful (the gold band is more visible) and has much better contrast. JennyOz (talk) 15:24, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Eeek, I see you've swapped the new noms panel bit to the other lists but... "As of 2017, a shortlist of six nominees for the award come from a panel composed of the "world's leading sports editors, writers and broadcasters" So sorry but it needs to be "comes". (Sportsman, Sportswoman, Team, Breakthrough, Comeback) JennyOz (talk) 15:24, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- No bother, all fixed now. I'll take a look at the new trophy image and see if I can upload it to supersede the existing fair use image. Cheers. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:43, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- "The Laureus World Sports Academy then select the winner..." - selects
- "...while athletes have won four times..." - athletes plural sounds weird when all are Bolt, meh
- Yeah, meh... Any suggestions? The Rambling Man (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I s'pose it could say 'while an athlete has won four times' (deliciously ambiguous) but not important. JennyOz (talk) 07:32, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- "... the latter being the most recent winner.[13] The 2017 winner of the Laureus World Sports Award for Sportsman of the Year was Bolt..." - repetitive?
- Yes, removed the final sentence which ...... The Rambling Man (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- "...Bolt who won three gold medals at the 2016 Summer Olympics, taking his overall tally to nine." - The BBC ref (Aug 2016) says 9 but his article says 8 and IOC says 8 Gold. The discrepancy is the 2017 disqualification of the Beijing 2008 4x100 Jamaican team. So change to 8 and swap ref to this BBC piece of Jan 2017?
- ..... means this is no longer an issue. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Table - winners photos - all correct person winner - wlinks all good nationalities - all good
- Cycling - maybe further dab to Road bicycle racing (They are all road racers Armstrong, Contador, Evans and Wiggins.)
- Already happened. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Athletics is so broad, maybe pipe to Track and field or, seeing all are Bolt, to Sprint (running) (ie his events 100, 200 and 400m.)
- 2014 Vettel - is it possible to trim bottom third from his photo or use another?
- All done. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:25, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Statistics mutiple titles table all good
multiple nominations (includes wins) all good tho I'd omit armstrong
- That's why the asterisk is there, isn't that enough or am I missing something? The Rambling Man (talk) 19:25, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Ha! You're not 'missing something' except ability to read my mind! What I mean is that the asterisk in the main table is indicating a person whose noms and wins were retrospectively rescinded, whereas in stats/multiple noms table, the asterisks are referring to current recognised totals. Those totals exclude counting his noms and wins. By including him (and the asterisk against his name per its original use) it seems to me to re-recognise him.
- For stats purposes, his noms 2002-2006 no longer exist.
- (In Sportswoman, you didn't include Marion Jones in equiv stats table nor Earle Connor at Disability.)
- Sorry if that is clear a mud? JennyOz (talk) 07:37, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi TRM, just a few...
Infobox
- first awarded 2000 - 2005
Prose
- "...Boston Red Sox who won their first World Series in 86 years" - slightly ambiguous, I had to search to find if they had won it 86 yrs ago or had been in comp 86 years and this was their first win. Only fix I can think of is 'first World Series since 1918'
- I'll replace "in" with "for", hopefully that'll do it? Most RS seem to favour that kind of approach. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:16, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Perfect! JennyOz (talk) 03:32, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- "Since its establishment, the award has not been awarded four times, in 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013." - Maybe 'The award was not given in the years 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013.' And maybe move to end of first paragraph ie where you already speak of its discretionary status?
- Have reprhased, not exactly per your recommendation, but let me know. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:16, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Rephrase fine, might look better at end that para? JennyOz (talk) 03:32, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- "...comprise five individuals and four teams..." - four individuals and five teams
- "...was the English Premier League football team Leicester City F.C." - could insert 'winning' between League and football.
Table
- Strange to see the Sports not wlinked in this one - intentional?
- No, all linked now. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:43, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- 2007 FC Barcelona Notes - insert 'children's' before AIDS?
- 2008 Dick Pound - Ref says Chairman but his and WADA articles say President
- Replaced, but refs are lacking, added another ref. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:43, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- David E Newton book this online is better ref? Bio starts p198, 199 says president and 200 mentions Laureus. (Weird that lots of places on web double up the "A Reference Handbook" in the book's name but inside front cover at this link shows it definitely only appears once in title.)

BioWare is one of the most notable Western development studios in video games industry. They've been around for almost 22 years and are widely known for their work in the RPG genre. After putting together List of Valve Corporation video games, I decided recently to start working on another developer's list: BioWare. The list is comprehensive, reliably sourced and I think the opening prose explains the company's history and work relatively well. Therefore, I'd like to nominate it for Featured List status. Thanks. The1337gamer (talk) 17:50, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Hooray, another video game list! --PresN 19:06, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"The game was a modest success, however it was BioWare's second title Baldur's Gate (1998) that achieved overwhelming critical praise and defined the company's future direction."
- the "however" is implying an unexpected shift that isn't there; the first game did ok, the second did great. Try "The game was a modest success, but BioWare's second title, Baldur's Gate (1998), achieved overwhelming critical praise and defined the company's future direction.""Baldur's Gate—a role-playing video game (RPG) based..."
- you just said that you were talking about Baldur's Gate, no need to repeat this close or wedge in a double aside. Try "A role-playing video game (RPG) based on Dungeons & Dragons, Baldur's Gate sold more than...""... which alongside other games that made use of BioWare's technology..."
- unclear, try "... which along with the use of Bioware game engines in RPGs such as Planescape: Torment"" on another coveted intellectual property"
- "coveted" feels wierd, maybe just "popular"- "Whilst" is fine in British english, but sounds pretentious in American english; not sure about Candian english. Consider using "While" instead
"however the BioWare branding was later removed with these projects being cancelled and the studios being shut down in the following years"
-> "but the projects were cancelled and the studios shut down in the following years"- If you add "multiplereleasedates=yes" to the video game titles/item templates, it will change the awkward "Original release date(s):" to confident "Original release dates:" (Or, for Mass Effect Galaxy, etc., make it "multiplereleasedates=no" to get "Original release date:")
- Feels weird to say "Published by Electronic Arts" on cancelled games that were never published; might be better to say "Planned to be published by Electronic Arts"
"Project designed shifted"
-> "Project design shifted during development", and actually maybe combine the first two lines of C&C: "During development, project design shifted from a standard real-time strategy game (RTS) to a free-to-play, multiplayer-focused RTS rebranded as Command & Conquer"- 4Gamer.net (in references) has a capital G (you have it lowercase in a few)
- Did not do a full source review, but it all looked good at a glance.
- Thanks for the feedback. I think I've made all these changes but let me know if there's anything else to fix or improve upon. --The1337gamer (talk) 00:43, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Source review – All of the references appear to be sufficiently reliable, and all of them work according to the link-checker tool. The only formatting issue I see is that ref 114 has improper all caps in a couple of places in the title. Spot-checks of refs 56, 94, and 113 showed that all of the content sourced to those citations was adequately supported. Fix the instances of all caps in that one ref and this should be good to go.

Following some related FL examples, such as the List of World Heritage Sites in Slovenia, I believe this list meets all criteria. Some prose tweaks may be required but I expect this to be sorted during the nomination process. Tone 15:51, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- As I mentioned for the Croatia list, there's no need for a 'Shared with' column. The description of the graveyards already has the other countries in the description, and the frontiers of the Roman Empire could easily include it. Reywas92Talk 01:21, 20 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Probably it's for the best if this part of discussion continues at Croatia list, the outcome should be of course applicable to both. --Tone 06:10, 20 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment as I noted at the Croatia list, this can't be sorted chronologically. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:21, 12 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Nominator(s): Mattximus (talk) 23:06, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because I aim to create a template for which to apply to all other Mexican list of municipality pages. I did nominate this list before, however due to lack of interest it was not promoted. I understand that the list is small, but it is complete, and am very open to any suggestions for improvement. I've made all recommended changes in the previous nomination and used previous municipality lists as a style guide in an attempt to standardize these types of lists in wikipedia. Mattximus (talk) 23:06, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comments by Dudley
[edit]- "it is the least populous state" This is obviously accurate but to me it implies a low population density, whereas it has double the Mexican average. How about "has the smallest population"?
- "Municipalities in Colima are administratively autonomous" I do not understand what "administratively autonomous" means in this context.
- How is the municipal council chosen - elected?
- "the cleaning and maintenance of public parks" Cleaning of a park does not sound right to me. I would leave it out as maintenance covers cleaning.
- "Since 1984, they can collect property taxes" This also does not sound right. Maybe "they have had the power to collect"
- ""than from their own collection efforts" "efforts" seems odd to me. Maybe "from their own income"
- A first rate article. Dudley Miles (talk) 23:47, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Cobblet
[edit]- When were the municipalities established? You may find this source somewhat helpful.
- I've searched everywhere for a source on this and have not been able to find one. The link you provided only gives the date for 1 municipality unfortunately, unless I'm reading it incorrectly. If we can find a source I'm very happy to include it. In most list of administrative divisions I do this.
- This information is usually available in each municipality's entry in the Enciclopedia de los Municipios y Delegaciones de México. I should've mentioned that. Cobblet (talk) 20:37, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, take a look at this comprehensive historical report on the territorial division of Colima, especially page 67. Cobblet (talk) 16:19, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I changed the dates to reflect this source. Do you think it is the best one? It contradicts the previous one. I will mark as complete unless you think there is a better source for dates. Done
- I don't mind checking the sources myself if you can point out other discrepancies you saw, but for Colima proper, I think you have the correct date now – I'd distinguish between the mere founding of a settlement and the establishment of a municipal administration within a legal framework. Cobblet (talk) 19:53, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm happy with using the last reference you cited. By the way, I just want to thank you for such a thorough review. The article is becoming much better thanks to you. I will be away for a few days but will return to complete the rest. Mattximus (talk) 21:00, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Don't mention it. I'm very happy to see someone else taking an interest in Mexican municipalities as I myself have just started creating articles on the missing ones. Cobblet (talk) 18:19, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- What is/are the enabling statute(s) for the municipalities of Colima? Is the Ley del Municipio Libre del Estado de Colima all there is (I have not checked whether that link contains the most recent version of the law), or are there also other relevant statutes?
- See also Title 7 of Colima's state constitution (Articles 87–96) which also deals with the establishment of municipalities. Pages 89–90 of the territorial division report I linked to above seems to suggest that the Constitution and the Organic Law are the two controlling provisions. Cobblet (talk) 16:19, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Done Cobblet (talk) 22:13, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Putting that statute into Google Translate, I notice that it translates regidores as "trustees" and síndicos as "councillors." An OECD publication also does the same. Any translation we provide should be cited.
- Great suggestion. Done
- Article 45 enumerates the powers of the municipal councils. Can you check that what you wrote and cited regarding Mexican municipalities generally also applies specifically to municipalities of Colima?
- Done Cobblet (talk) 22:13, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Articles 60 and 61 provide for the existence of local auxiliary authorities (autoridades auxiliares), and a quick Google search and browse through the Enciclopedia de los Municipios y Delegaciones de México indicates that these are operational in several (if not all) municipalities in Colima. These seem worth mentioning to me especially if it is true that not all municipalities of Mexico have them, as is claimed in that article.
- Done Cobblet (talk) 22:13, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I have noticed that every major source on Mexican municipalities seems to have a different set of land area statistics. For instance, your source gives Armería's area as 341.6 km2; the Enciclopedia gives 408.38 km2; and SEDESOL's Cédulas de información municipal gives 410.051 km2, citing INEGI's Marco Geoestadístico 2010. I would prefer to use the last of these sources as it was adopted for the 2010 Census and the underlying GIS data is available.
- I was frustrated with this problem as well. It's surprising how hard it was to find data on the area of a municipality. I clicked on the link you gave me, but it just links to shape files. Would you be able to point me to the area numbers? If so I will update the list and correct the densities as well.
- Sorry, I should've been clearer – each municipality's entry in the Cédulas de información municipal (click on their names) gives their land area, citing INEGI's 2010 data. Cobblet (talk) 20:37, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for finding the source. It was way off of previous numbers, but searching around they are all over the place. I've updated all area figures and densities to the reference you suggested, it seems like the most legitimate of all options. Done Mattximus (talk) 22:58, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- The current arrangement of the gallery seems a little awkward as its title "Largest municipalities in Colima by population" might be perceived to apply to the table as well as the gallery. Maybe put the gallery under the table, or even arrange it vertically to the right? Cobblet (talk) 04:48, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I used to agree with this, and this was how I organized the images when I first started making these lists. However after over a dozen featured lists, the unanimous advice was to place them in this gallery style format, and not to the right as I originally had it. Their reasoning was that placing images on the right of a table causes issues on screens with low resolution. So for accessibility and consistency reasons, they are formatted like this. Mattximus (talk) 16:40, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, but I don't see anything wrong with my other suggestion of placing the gallery underneath the table. It's a minor point though. Cobblet (talk) 20:37, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your review, I'm waiting on a few points above before moving on to the remainder of the points. Thanks again for helping bring this article up to featured status. Mattximus (talk) 16:40, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Just an update, I think I've reached my ability to update this article. Cobblet is absolutely correct in the comments above, however I tried to use their links but since I can't read Spanish I think I will have to give up. Thanks again to Cobblet for the excellent review, and if they are willing to help with some of the actions above that would be fantastic and the list can be featured. Despite the other supports I have to agree with Cobblet in that the article needs a bit more technical information on local municipalities before becoming featured. Hopefully he/she can help! Mattximus (talk) 02:41, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- That's too bad – the article wasn't far off. I might have time to work on it about a month from now. Cobblet (talk) 00:11, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Cobblet, I'm also still willing to support the completion of the lead, I just couldn't read the Spanish references you gave me, so I felt I had to take a pause. I'm happy to wait a month and we can bring it up to featured list. Mattximus (talk) 01:02, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Mattximus am I reading the above correctly, you'd like to wait a month before completing this? Should I withdraw it on your behalf at this time? The Rambling Man (talk) 11:37, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I did my best on the article and did receive several supports. Some of the actions mentioned above by Cobblet are good suggestions, but I can't follow through with them since I can't read Spanish. I would love to see the article promoted, but not all suggestions can be completed due to the language barrier. What do you think the proper procedure should be? Thanks The Rambling Man for your input! Mattximus (talk) 15:35, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I think if you believe it's not comprehensive then it would be the right thing to do to withdraw it and maybe request some Spanish-language assistance with expanding it accordingly, then re-nominate? The Rambling Man (talk) 15:40, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I believe Cobblet's suggestions are valid. Perhaps they can assist in incorporating those changes when they return in a month? And re-nominate then? Mattximus (talk) 15:45, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I should have time to do some work on it this weekend if we can wait till then. Cobblet (talk) 01:44, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Sure, there's no rush to close this, I just wanted to ensure it was still active. Let's see how the work goes over the weekend and decide afterwards if a re-nomination is necessary in the future. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:30, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Any reason a third of the table has

- Link Kannada first time round in the lead.
- "first recipient of the award was the Kannada writer C. K. Nagaraja Rao who received the award " recipient .. award ... received ... award... repetitive.
- "Out of twenty-three eligible languages the award has been presented for works in nine languages:" Reverse this, "Works have been presented the award in nine of the twenty-three eligible languages"
- "given in the year 1985 and " no need for "the year" again.
- " one women author. In 1991, Odia " replace the full stop with a colon as the two sentences are intrinsically linked.

- "The recipient for a particular year is announced by the Selection Board, which has final authority in selection.[3]" seems nugatory to me.
- Row scopes need a "!" rather than a "|".
- "Awarded forMrityunjay." space needed.
- Why isn't the winning work named in the table rather than those various footnotes?
- It's because we don't have information about some awardee's winning work and listing the rest in the table won't be appropriate.

- Not sure why Kannada, Gujarati, and Odia and not mentioned together of all have won 2 awards. Also, if so mention them in a chronological order.
- Fixed.
- "As of 2017, Bengali poet Joy Goswami is the recipient of the award." - the latest? most recent?
- Done
- "The language of the most recent recipient's work is not eligible for consideration for the next two years." - How have Hindi writers won 16/30 awards then?
- The sentence is self-contradictory. I have removed it now.
- You could put up a picture of Pratibha Ray as well as she is only woman to have won the award?
- Done.

- Nominator(s): West Virginian (talk) 17:14, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this list because it gives possibly the most comprehensive summary of West Virginia state parks available. It gives a broad overview of the state parks' governance, a history of the state parks, and a list of both current and former state parks. I look forward to working with the FLC editors throughout this process, and I welcome your expertise, guidance, and suggestions. Thank you. -- West Virginian (talk) 17:14, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Support – Normally when sorting people you do sort by last name but because in these instances they are monuments and parks named after people I'd say sort by first name. Anyways, everything looks good to me. Happy to sign support. Great job! BeatlesLedTV (talk) 04:03, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Note (a) should be a regular citation; no need to put the duplicative info in a footnote. The first sentence of note (c) is also redundant to the text preceding it - just put the citations in the text. Don't reference note (d) twice; leave the lead as just a summary and have the note or the info it contains only in the Overview section. There is an entire section for Former state parks, so note (e) is also redundant and unnecessary.
- The images are rather small if you want to make them bigger.
- An awful lot of the descriptions begin with "The park..." but any content would be assumed to be describing the park anyway. "The park is named for the 3,100-foot (940 m) tall Pinnacle Rock sandstone formation." could for example be written as "Pinnacle Rock is a 3,100-foot (940 m) tall sandstone formation."
- Booker T Washington needs a date of disestablishment in the table.
- Explanatory notes are not references; they can be in a separate Notes section. Reywas92Talk 22:08, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Reywas92, thank you for taking the time to review this list and for providing your feedback and suggestions here! I provided footnote [a] to explain that the two rail trails are considered state parks and thought a footnote would allow me to also place multiple inline citations versus crowding all three citations after the first sentence. I will assess some alternative options in the meantime. I also removed the previous [d] citation per your suggestion. I increased the image sizes from 100px to 150px. Let me know if this will be large enough. I also removed the former [e] citation per your request. I separated the explanatory notes and reference sections. As for Booker T. Washington, I have not been able to locate a definitive date for its closing due to a lack in available data about the park. I have placed an en dash there until that date can be verified. I will also be incorporating your suggestion to pare down the size of the description, but I will be holding off for the time being until I receive a few more reviews so I can make all those changes together at once. Please let me know if you see anything else that needs adjusting in the meantime! -- West Virginian (talk) 03:37, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks pretty good! The Remarks column would also look better left-aligned rather than each line being irregularly centered. I don't see a problem with having three citations together, that's pretty common. Thanks for your great work here, it's nice to see more progress on park-related pages! Reywas92Talk 04:37, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Reywas92, thank you again for your further guidance and for taking the time to improve this list! It is much appreciated. I attempted to only left-align the remarks column, but alas, I haven't been able to do so without re-aligning the other columns. I concur that the remarks look so much better aligned to the left, so I've modified the sortable table so that the info columns are all aligned left. This is actually consistent with other featured lists of state parks, like Louisiana and Pennsylvania. Please let me know if you think this works! -- West Virginian (talk) 16:31, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Reywas92, I wanted to let you know that Corinne just completed a phenomenal copyedit of the remarks in both lists, thus paring down the descriptions per your suggestion above. Please let me know if you see any other issues that would preclude this from becoming a FL! -- West Virginian (talk) 00:08, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- These links needs to be fixed.
- "NDA is not only the officer training academy in India." I guess it should be "not the only.."
- Fullstop missing from all the alt texts.

- Be consistent with Rediff's name. It is changing with every reference.

- @Yashthepunisher: Thanks for the reply. I've fixed the red link (added an archive url), it should be fine now. Coming to the green links, I think the tool is picking something wrong, if the links are checked individually all of them work. Regarding the alt texts, as per the examples on WP:ALT, I see that very short phrases, something such as names, don't require a full stop. However, consistency is to be maintained. With regards to the rediff, I've maintained consistency over the mention, I has been mentioned as Rediff all through.

- Comments from Force Radical
- There are too many references which are linked in all the places in some lists, causing it to become an eyesore maybe it could be added in a general row at the bottom(Like those done under Maha Vir chakra)
- Expand the first instances of all abbreviations(CAS,CNS,COAS)
- Use † to denote those who have died posthumously and footnote the same at the bottom
Otherwise this list is pretty good and I believe it to be close to FL class .Support — comment added by Force Radical (talk • contribs) 08:08, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Force Radical: Thanks for the comments. References have been removed/adjusted to avoid duplication and excessive mention.

- Comments by Rodw
Another interesting list & most of the issues I might have spotted have already been addressed. A few minor quibbles:
In the description of Burbage Common and Woods "Semi-natural woods ... are" this could be interpreted as being about all Semi-natural woods rather than this one in particular
- Changed. Dudley Miles (talk) 14:32, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
(Technical query) Glen Parva says "An arm of the Grand Union Canal" - an arm is generally a navigable waterway away from the main line of the canal. Having taken our narrowboat along this section of the GU I don't believe there is an arm at Glen Parva - perhaps "the line" of the canal rather than "an arm". The reference given just says "A canal runs along the western side of the site."
- Changed. I said an arm because I thought that it was on The Leicester Line rather than the main canal, but you would obviously know better. Dudley Miles (talk) 14:32, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- The GU is massive so different "lines" relate to different sections (rather than arms - see Saltisford Canal Arm, Buckingham Arm, Slough Arm etc).— Rod talk 14:45, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- "The awards are considered highly prestigious and are frequently referred to as the sporting equivalent of "Oscars"." Please specify who. I assume its sports journalists and if so, just mention that.
- No, it's more general than that. Of the three references I used to cite that claim, one was CNN (not specifically "sports journalism"), one was the IAAF (so the definitive global body for athletics, not journalists at all) and one was a sports writer in Die Welt, so it's more across the board, so coming up with a specific statement to cover that would be too clunky.

Hi TRM and Harrias, HNY!
Infobox
- awarded for - quote marks and ref per other Laureus FLs
Prose
- ...formerly known as the Alternative Sportsperson of the Year,..." - could replace "formerly" with 'prior to 2007'
- "The Laureus World Sports Academy then select the individual winner..." - selects?
- "It has been award posthumously..." - awarded
- "...while surfers have been recognised most often..." - insert 'of any sport' after often?
- "...and Stephanie Gilmore (2009),..." - 2010
Table
- 2002 ref 13 - better (more timely and in English) refs this or this?
- 2005 Ellen MacArthur - dab Sailing to Sailing (sport)
- 2005 Mike Horn - swap ZAF to RSA (per 2001)
- 2007 Kevin Pritchard - wlink is not same bloke? At Windsurfing he doesn't even have redlink. See here for Kevin bio, no mention of basketball.
- 2011 - winner Sherwood? Is the NZ Herald in error saying Sherwood won one? It and other Kiwis got carried away? This says Slater. Current Ref 22 xgames.espn says 2012 was Slater's 4th ie 07, 09 and last year (2011). This and this say Slater. and this and this and photo of Slater holding statuette. Laureus World Sports Awards winners by year still has Slater.
- 2011 Sherwood - dab his sport wlink to Freestyle Motocross?
- NB If 2011 was Slater, will need to:
- change template and
- remove template and category from Sherwood article.
- and in lede, this sentence "Americans are the most successful with seven awards, while surfers have been recognised most often with five awards." - will need to change to eight awards for US and six for surfing
- Maybe mention Slater in lede prose as the only multiple winner with four action wins?
- 2014 Mick Fanning - is an Aussie pls!
- 2015 Sage Kotsenburg - skateboarding should be snowboarding
- 2015 Gabriel Medina - is Brazilian
- 2016 Mick Fanning - is an Aussie pls!
- 2017 Pedro Barros - not the priest, dab to Pedro Barros (skateboarder)
- 2017 Tyler Wright - dab to Tyler Wright (surfer)
Refs - all live
Template
- 2011 - Slater as above?
- 2016 - should be Jan Frodeno

- Infobox - we can't use that new NZ Herald ref to cite the "awarded for" bit - that news article replicates (in same sentence, no less) NZH's previous error that Sherwood won in 2011. How about this or Laureus itself or this? JennyOz (talk) 09:40, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
