Talk:List of accolades received by Shiva Baby

Best-of list removals per the "select" in header

Taking "select" to mean outlets with 1. international, national, or significant cultural distribution, and 2. a Wikipedia article that passes WP:NMEDIA.

Select year-end rankings of Shiva Baby

Publication	List	Rank	Ref.	Removal reason
Athlone Advertiser	The best films of 2021	8		Small, local, distribution; article does not indicate notability.
The Commercial Appeal	John Beifuss's Top 20 of 2020	8		Local distribution; article suggests it is not the leading newspaper in the area.
Denton Record-Chronicle	Top 15 movies of 2021	15		Small, local, distribution; article does not indicate notability.
Pittsburgh Magazine	The Top 10 Movies of 2021	10		Local distribution; article does not indicate notability.
RogerEbert.com	The Best Films and Mini-Series of 2021	–		I think 160 unranked is too large in scope to be considered a best-of list. Kingsif (talk) 00:38, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
St. Louis Jewish Light	The top five Jewishish movies of 2021	3		Small, local, distribution. As the article suggests it is a significant Jewish newspaper, the media award entry remains. Despite its cultural significance, I think that the distribution is still too small to suggest its best-of list has impact. Kingsif (talk) 00:29, 16 January 2022 (UTC) Also, best-of list is "select", while other awards listed should aim to be complete and comprehensive. Kingsif (talk) 01:07, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
That Shelf	The Best Films of 2021: Courtney Small	8		Article has been draftified.

• Emma Seligman for Shiva Baby was listed as one of the Best Filmmaking Debuts of 2021 by Fort Worth Weekly.

• Local distribution; article suggests it is not the leading newspaper in the area.

• ... that Shiva Baby is considered one of the best comedy, horror, queer, Jewish, debut independent films of 2020 and 2021?
  • ALT1: ... that Shiva Baby was one of the most-awarded films to not receive an Oscar nomination in 2022?
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Zamia pygmaea
  • Comment: I find alt0 to be witty from the implication of over-specificity; I have been cautious with the phrasing of alt1 as it is based on a source (here, oddly, that makes me somewhat cautious as I have not done the math on every Oscar-eligible film myself to 'check'). Article also nominated at FLC, but nothing in either set of instructions precludes this nom, too.

• Page: While the list was created months ago, it wasn't moved from drafspace to mainspace until April 3, which is also when the DYK nomination took place, making it new enough. It is also long enough, having much more than just 1,500 characters. There is one image present in the infobox, which originates from a YouTube video using "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)". Furthermore, the list is neutral, with everything being properly cited through the use of inline citations. As indicated by the copyvios tool (Here) copyright violation or other form of plagiarism issues are unlikely. Lastly, QPQ has also been done.
• Hook: Both hooks are less than 200 characters, making them short enough. Personally, I find both hooks interesting, although I might be inclined to go with the latter; ALT1. While the first one is also interesting, I'm note sure about the fact that it consists primarily of a string of adjectives used to describe Shiva Baby. The second one is better written, looking, and also more interesting, as it relates to the Oscars. Associating the movie with the Oscars is something that I believe makes the hook more interesting for a general and broad audience.
  • Another issue with the first hook is that it apparently fails to meet eligibility criterion 3:B, which states that "each fact in the hook must be supported in the article by at least one inline citation to a reliable source, appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact. Citations at the end of the paragraph are not sufficient. This rule applies even when a citation would not be required for the purposes of the article". Granted, while Hook #0 is present in the article, it is more of a summary of the table and lacks a source at the end. Conversely, as you yourself state, the second hook is directly cited by a source in the article.
    • @PanagiotisZois: I am happy to withdraw alt0 based on this. Kingsif (talk) 18:06, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
      • @Kingsif: I think that would be best. I'm sorry, I understand you preferred that hook over the second one. It's just that a hook using 6 continuous adjectives to describe the noun "film" is just too much. Especially when the second hook you wrote is so much more interesting.

        • No, don't worry about it! Kingsif (talk) 20:57, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

The ALT1 hook is not only better than the first, but quite interesting on its own. The source is in Hungarian, and the article does have a note pointing out the part of the text that confirms the hooks claim. Seems ready to go. --PanagiotisZois (talk) 14:08, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
