St. Louis Rams seasons

The following is an archived discussion of a featured list nomination. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the article's talk page. No further edits should be made to this page. The closing editor's comments were: 18 days, 1 support, 2 oppose. No consensus to promote; also fails WP:WIAFL 1a (it's not a list of exsisting articles). Fail. Tompw (talk) (review) 12:55, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is a self-nominated list that details records for all professional seasons played by the St. Louis Rams in their franchise history. The list displays regular season win-loss-tie records for each year, including playoff results. It is properly formatted and no additional research is required other than updating the list at the conclusion of a completed season. It follows a similar format to Chicago Bears seasons, which is a WP:FL except for the player/coaches awards which are located at St Louis Rams statistics. I wanted to keep this list about the franchise history and not about individual accomplishments. Support as creator. --Pinkkeith 03:39, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. This list still needs some additional work before getting my support vote. First, wikis need to be cleaned up for duplicate entries (i.e. playoff teams). ~~Second, the "One Game Playoff Birth" legend is not necessary if not used in your list~~. ~~This should be removed.~~ RyguyMN 06:02, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the comment, I cleaned that up. --Pinkkeith 10:51, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support. It's a good list, just like the others. But if I were you, I'd keep it in line with the other lists, and add awards. Wlmaltby3 00:31, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support, fine. -Phoenix 02:29, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Oppose there should be an article per season. Also, going by Minnesota Vikings seasons, the first column should contain links to NFL seasons, then there should be a column with links to the team's seasons. Tompw (talk) 20:33, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
~~Witholding~~ support ~~pending one fix~~: The 1950 season says they won the National Conference championship, yet the list also indicates that they belonged to the west division and that the league did not organize into "National" and "American" conferences until 1951??? One of those things is wrong. Also, I too would like to see the awards added so that ALL of the lists are consistent and have the same format, but I will not hold up my support for that issue. The 1950 entry needs fixing, though...--Jayron32|talk|contribs 16:12, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Good catch, the 1950 season is when the league went into National and American conferences. I still don't feel that individual awards should go into a list that is about a franchise seasonal record. --Pinkkeith 16:58, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - now fully support. Though, I still have some reservations, per the comments below (no awards column, season results not linked to individual articles). This really should be nearly identical to the Bears and Vikings articles, as THOSE were featured, and so consensus holds that the format should look just like those...--Jayron32|talk|contribs 21:26, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose template should link the actual season articles, of which there currently are only 4 (the template at the bottom makes it clear they are aimed for creation). Circeus 19:49, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment keep it in line with the Chicago Bears seasons, Minnesota Vikings seasons, and New England Patriots seasons lists. An awards column is needed and the font needs to be reduced in size...if these changes are made then I will give it a vote of support. --Happyman22 20:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Absolutely agreee Happyman22. There is a growing trend of inconsistency with these latest season lists up for WP:FL. Let's keep in line with Bears and Vikings. I followed the Bears to a tee when I made the Vikings list because that qualified as FL. Thanks. RyguyMN 22:28, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment. I actually made this page back in October and modeled it after the Bears list format at that time when it was made an FL. Yet, I will add the awards section. I was also thinking of adding the team awards as well. --Pinkkeith 23:53, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I added the NFL seasons and league awards to this edit [1], and I also added the team awards to this edit [2]. Let me know what you think. The first edit had Jerome Bettis' OROY award in the incorrect column, but that can be easily fixed. --Pinkkeith 01:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Also noted that the 1944 season was missing the link to the 1944 NFL season. That has been correct. --Pinkkeith 01:37, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
