I am nominating this for featured list because the list fits the FL criteria (by me fixing and sourcing all the items). This is my first FL nomination, so feel free to point out mistakes. Anyway, everything about the topic is covered and everything is sourced. Good to go. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 12:59, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Drive-by comments
  • Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting |+ caption_text as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting |+ {{sronly|caption_text}} instead.
  • Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding !scope=col to each header cell, e.g. ! Year becomes !scope=col | Year. If the cell spans multiple columns with a colspan, then use !scope=colgroup instead.
  • Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding !scope=row to each primary cell, e.g. | 1987 becomes !scope=row | 1987 (on its own line). If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use !scope=rowgroup instead.
  • Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 14:10, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

More points

  • Please fix the ref error shown at the bottom of the page.
  • Remove the spacer rows between each set of olympics winners.
  • Add relevant wikilinks to the lead and some references. You can reuse the ones from later in the page, if appropriate.
  • Most of the references are missing archive links. Running IABOT on the page should fix most of these. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 14:20, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wait, what ref error? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:39, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Refs are missing archive links, no ref error though. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:51, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can I use another script/bot? The screen says, "Permission error". 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:10, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, got the hang of it, archived the links. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:24, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Cool, ping me here when you take care of the rest of the stuff that I mentioned. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:29, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Matthewrb

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

That's what I got. ~ Matthewrb Talk to me · Changes I've made 15:47, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For your third bullet, how to do that? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:01, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Didn't feel the need to insert the dagger, and didn't include Medal tally by individual, since they are already mentioned above. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:25, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It should be as simple as adding |alt= |link= to the images.
Whatever change you made also added empty rows to the Summer Olympics table, in the List of Medals section. ~ Matthewrb Talk to me · Changes I've made 14:30, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Done 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 09:01, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not seeing the change for my third bullet, but that might be a caching issue. Support ~ Matthewrb Talk to me · Changes I've made 16:12, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The icons are assigned to a specific template, hence why I didn't do your request. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:05, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
An IP is reverting my edits for the active competitors, because bold words are regularly only shown in the Multiple medalists table. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:21, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh

[edit]

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

Other comments:

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

There's a lot, and I could have actually said more, but this is what I have for now. Ping me when it's been addressed and I'll look through again. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:42, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed the ref errors. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:17, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The multiple medalist table is shown in other Olympic medalists lists. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:21, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, an IP is reverting my edits removing the empty rows referencing other articles. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:22, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
