Hey all, we're closing in on finishing up the World Fantasy Awards with this 9th World Fantasy Award list, #35 overall in our perpetual FLC series of sci-fi/fantasy award lists. This award list is pretty self-explanatory: a "lifetime" achievement award category; notable quirks are that the recipients don't have to be dead/retired (or even close to done with their career), that the winner is announced when the nominees of the other categories are, and that since 2000 it's been traditional to give out two awards per year, generally to an author and a non-author. The WFAs give no reasons for the winners but a list of names is boring, so I've added fantasy works the winner had done prior to winning, a la FLs Hugo Award for Best Professional Editor, John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer. The formatting on this list is functionally identical to the other sci-fi/fantasy award lists, and especially so to the other WFA lists, and comments from prior FLCs have been incorporated here. Thanks all for reviewing! --PresN 19:43, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by Dudley
- " Individuals are also eligible for the Special Award—Professional and Special Award—Non-professional categories for their work in a given year not tied to a specific achievement." Several issues: 1. This seems out of place. The para is on the life award, here you go away from it and then come back in the next sentence. 2 Why mention these particular awards? Are individuals not eligible for other awards? If so, you should say so. 3. The word "categories" seems superfluous. 4. What does "a given year" mean? The previous year?
- "before voting on the overall winner." "winners"?
- "but at the 2015 ceremony it was announced that the award would not be made in future years". Presumably the statuette not the award - they were not ending the award altogether?
- These points are minor. A first rate list. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:13, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Just cut the sentence
- Specified that its the winner of each category
- Clarified that its the statuette that's being dropped, not the category
- Thanks for reviewing Dudley Miles, I believe I've addressed all of your concerns. --PresN 20:24, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- Support - Very informative and complete list, well sourced. I am concerned with MOS:ACCESS on the table (Specifically having row headers which allow screen readers to understand which year is tied with what), however; I don't have the ability to test it at this time... ~ Matthewrbowker Drop me a note 02:14, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note/Hint/etc. - I have my own FLC Candidate Mexican National Lightweight Championship and I figured giving is the best way of getting feedback.
Comments
- Lead
- "These have included authors, editors, and publishers." - I don't think everyone on the list falls in those categories. Ex. Frank Franzetta - who is an artist. The list makes it sound definitive.
- "and a panel of five judges adds three or more nominees before voting on the overall winner of each category." - Who votes on the winners? I read it first as the panel of five judges, but earlier in that same paragraph it states "winners are decided by attendees and judges at the annual World Fantasy Convention." I think it would help to clarify which it is.
- Table
- So with this being a mix of authors and "others" would it make sense to actually have something to indicate if each recipient is an author, editor, publisher etc as part of the list?
- Sources
- Is the "Science Fiction Awards Database" a Reliable source??
That's all the issues I have seen, overall it's in great shape. MPJ-US 02:44, 23 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Added "for example"
- Works for me
- Adjusted the first sentence to say that the attendees/judges pick the nominees; the judges are the ones who vote for the winner from the nominees.
- Definitely clearer now.
- Unfortunately it would be a mess; there's an awful lot of winners who were well-known for their editing but also wrote a book or two, or who edited a bunch of stuff and then founded a publishing house. It's impossible to say what they were most known for at the time of winning the award, and really hard to narrow it down even from a modern perspective. The whole column would be OR, and I'm stretching the line by including the "works they were known for" column, which does imply that somewhat.
- I see the challenge that presents, I agree it's better to not do that in this case.
- Yes, it's a project by Locus, the biggest sci-fi/fantasy magazine/trade journal there is. It used to be hosted on their website, but now it's on its own.
Excellent, thank you.
- @MPJ-DK: Responded below; I'll try to get to your FLC when I get a chance. --PresN 02:19, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Source review: Formatting is as per MoS, the references are reliable, no dead links and spot checks reveals no evidence of plagiarism or close copying.
- There have been problems found in other reviews by this IP: review struck for the moment. - SchroCat (talk) 08:43, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Source review
Right, the referencing is pretty perfect, so I'm going to make some really nitpicky points.
- Most newspapers sources just have the work (#1, #2, #7), but the Chicago Tribune reference (#3) also lists a publisher. Is there any particular reason for the difference?
- For ref #4 the retrieved date should probably be updated to match the archived date. (I don't see a problem if the retrieval date is newer than the archived date though.)
- Ref #19 has "pp. 448–449." while #20 has "pp. 994–5." – be consistent.
- Spotchecks reveal no copyvio or close paraphrasing, and in each case the source provides the information cited in the article. My very picky points aside, all looks good. Harrias talk 10:21, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Removed Tribune publisher
- Done
- Fixed (994-995)
- @Harrias: Done, thank you! --PresN 14:04, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Support on sources – To be honest, given how picky my points were, I was happy enough to support anyway, but all the better now! Harrias talk 14:35, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Just a couple of minor additional source points:
- The two books will need locations for publishers
- FN2 probably needs a location – there are too many papers called The Star for easy identification
Cheers – SchroCat (talk) 15:58, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @SchroCat: Both done, though I personally feel that book publisher locations are entirely superfluous, given the modern global/online economy. That a publisher is headquartered in New York City does not prevent a curious reader in Scotland from getting their eyes on the text, or vice versa. --PresN 16:15, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have worked on this article to completely overhauled its lead (and some major changes throughout the article) and make it a better standalone list of all Taylor Swift's songs. I believe it overall meets the featured list criteria. It is likely to have glitches, which I will fix if I notice - by myself or reviewers. Any comment on the list from anyone will be very much appreciated. -- Frankie talk 18:49, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- I know there was a lot of work that went into this, but do you think it meets the FL criteria? This isn't the first one-line support I've noticed recently from an IP, and this behavior is attracting increased attention in the FL community. If you don't want your supports discounted, I'd suggest making an increased effort to review against the criteria. Giants2008 (Talk) 23:24, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @Giants2008: Thanks for noting that. Actually I was also initially concerned about the IP's support but this IP also reviewed my previous nomination (not sure whether they are the same), and also made some good points. Given that, I am not sure if we need to be concerned about the IP's support as they might review lists against FL criteria, before giving a one-line support. -- Frankie talk 22:31, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments from — Calvin999
- I think it's superfluous to include (Cover) and (Live). But if you are going to keep them, then for for "Bette Davis Eyes" I would include both words in one set of parenthesis, not separate.
- I would advise against including songs which have been record live such as at a concert. That means recorded on camera, not audio recording, and I doubt she recorded a version in the studio. Also, technically every track whether hers or a cover would have been recorded, but you've only picked out new ones.
- If she just randomly sang songs live (such as the ones she has been singing at her 1989 Concert), I would not include them but she has released an album for that so I think it's worth adding.
- Songs were albums appear on two albums I would use an "&" somewhere just for differentiation.
These points aren't enough for me to oppose or abstain though, so you have my Support anyway :). I'm surprised it hasn't been promoted already. — Calvin999 16:42, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you! :) -- Frankie talk 17:58, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Source Check by PresN
- You're using the amazon-specific number (ASIN) as the "ID" in several references. That's... no. ID is a universal thing, not a store-specific id number; for e.g. ref 3, the Beautiful Eyes EP, that would be the catalog number by the publisher- BMRATS0140. Or you could leave it out, its not essential.
- Why do the album liner notes refs only have a release year, and not a full release date?
- I believe that's not quite necessary just like we only add the year to a film. It's also based on FLs of its kind.
- You're kind of spotty as to when you're linking the publisher in refs; usually you do it on the earliest instance, but sometimes you never link (MTV, Billboard, iTunes). It's not a big deal, but you should be consistent
- Consider archiving the online references you haven't already so that linkrot doesn't mess up your references, thereby unciting content or causing you extra work later on.
- I have archived one of them. Will do the rest later.
- Spotchecks: refs 5, 13, 19, 29. Two issues:
- ref 19, used for one song's row in the table, does not contain what the writers of the song were. I suspect that's an issue with many rows in the table that are cited to iTunes/Rhapsody. Is the cite only intended to cover that the song was included on the album/artist/year specified, and not cover the writing credits? Or are the writing credits present in the iTunes link and I missed them?
- The Rhapsody reference does mention Tom Petty but not specifically as the performer or songwriter "American Girl" (as he is both) so I believe that one is safe to use.
- ref 29 is used to cite ""Today was a Fairytale" was first released as a single from the soundtrack to the film Valentine's Day (2010), in which Swift starred.", but it only contains that Swift was in the movie, not that the song was first released as a single from the movie soundtrack.
So, minor issues, shouldn't be too hard to fix them- just watch out for playing it a little loose on references for facts that you know are true, but aren't completely covered by the ref. --PresN 01:12, 25 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- For each award, the organisation that presents the award should be cited. Any information about the award written in each subsection should be cited such as when it was first given, for what, how the recipient is determined.

- I don't think one "should" add these info as I don't find them necessary at all. A one or two-liner introduction should be okay and as for these info they can be found in their respective articles.

- Yup, as you can see, I have cited sources on introductory lines on awards.
- The APRA Awards (Australia) are co-presented by APRA and AMCOS: the latter organisation has been ignored from the lead-in sentence, it should also be in the publisher for the ref.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 02:52, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- @Shaidar cuebiyar: Thanks for your concern, now addressed. -- Frankie talk 09:57, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- APRA and AMCOS are separate, but related organisations, the APRA article does not even mention AMCOS so I don't see any advantage in linking to it.
- Both initialisms are unlikely to be as familiar as say, MTV, and so should be spelled out for the casual reader in the lead-in sentence.
- The songwriters, as well as the artist, are recipients – they have not been mentioned.
- Finally the year of the award should be linked to its WP article.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 22:07, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually I have added the song as the nominated work not Perry or the songwriters so it makes sense to not add the songwriters as well as Perry's name. -- Frankie talk 10:50, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- However, the Lead-in sentence says "to honor outstanding music artists and songwriters of the year" and whilst Perry is the music artist (and is rightly acknowledged as such) the songwriters have been ignored. Without them being given, a casual reader may believe that Perry herself is the songwriter, too.

- Alright, mentioned them in a footnote. -- Frankie talk 12:15, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Not quite. According to the source, the song is an adaptation of one originally written by B Wilson and M Love, these two songwriters should also be acknowledged and wL. I've just checked at an ASCAP ACE title search: eight songwriters are given (including Wilson and Love). APRA's own website, also, has all eight (see here).
- Neither of the initialisms are spelled out: what does APRA and AMCOS stand for? Most of the surrounding awards have organisations with initialisms, which are spelled out e.g. AMA, ARIA, ASCAP.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 20:44, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- I think the opening paragraph is too U.S. centric. I know she's American, but I think say adding the Brit Awards to it would be nice too.
- Two singles from the album—"I Kissed a Girl" and "Hot n Cold"—were nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance → In two separate years, no? Maybe I'm being too picky...
Apart from that, I can't see why this list shouldn't be promoted. Support. — Calvin999 10:38, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- She's never won a Grammy but that's included. — Calvin999 10:51, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Grammys are more notable, and she has been nominated for 13. The Brit Awards seems pretty irrelevant in comparison. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 10:57, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I see what you mean on this being US-centric, Calvin999, so I used Canada in place of US for "Roar" and "Dark Horse" as they both went number one there as well. Also added BRIT win. Thank you for the support. Snuggums (talk / edits) 15:29, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Who says Grammy's are more notable than Brits? Grammy's aren't more notable to the people of the United Kingdom. The Brits is the British equivalent of the Grammy's.

- More: However, I envisioned the following "She has also been nominated for 13 Grammy Awards, 4 Radio Disney Music Awards and 4 Brit Awards (winning one)." The opening paragraph is still U.S. centric. — Calvin999 17:07, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Source review: Formatting is as per MoS, the references are reliable, no dead links and spot checks reveals no evidence of plagiarism or close copying.A few issues regarding their accuracy:- Source 27 does not list the nominees of the 2011 Billboard Awards.
- Source 28 does not support anything the article claims. Neither does source 30.
- Source 166 does say that she won one award at Teen Choice Awards 2011 but not specifically which. There is also no reference for her nominations at the ceremony.

Comments Support from Parutakupiu
Hi NapHit, I already reviewed the page's prose and made some changes that I feel improved its flow and clarity. Also wikilinked some rugby-specific terms that may not be immediately familiar to readers. Regarding other points, here are my comments:
- There's a word missing in "Despite constant from the French for the remainder of the final..." that I could not guess which was during my copyediting. I leave this for you to fill.
- Ref. 7 does not support the 1995 final summary.
- Renaming suggestions:
- "Results" (section title) → "Finals"
- "Key to the list of finals" → "Key to colors and symbols"
- "List of finals matches, their venues and locations, the finalists and final scores" → "List of final matches, and respective venues, finalists and scores"
- (Optional) Maybe move the footnotes content to just below the finals table? It's only two of them, seems little to have a section of its own.

Comments by Dudley
- I found the second paragraph a bit confusing, saying that from 2015 extra time is played when there is a draw after 80 minutes, and then going back to earlier games with extra time. Maybe give the earlier games first and then the 2015 rules.
- The wording might not be the best, as these have always been the rules. The 'As of 2015' bit is so it is up to date, so to speak, for the reader. Removing this bit might make it a bit clearer and less confusing perhaps. NapHit (talk) 22:32, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- "A try by Pierre Berbizier in the final minutes, which was converted by Camberabero, settled New Zealand's victory in the tournament's inaugural final at 29–9." "settled" seems an odd word in this context - maybe "gave a slightly more respectable score of..."
- Reworded NapHit (talk) 22:32, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- A first rate article. These points are minor. Dudley Miles (talk) 22:20, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the comments {[ping|Dudley Miles}}, both comments have been addressed. NapHit (talk) 22:32, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. However, I would remove "As of the 2015 tournament" as it is misleading. If it is needed for the rules, why not elsewhere, such as every sentence in the third paragraph? Dudley Miles (talk) 23:27, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
;Comments from FrB.TG
- "They also won the most recent final, hosted in London in 2015" – according to WP:PRECISELANG, you should avoid terms such as "recent". I would probably rephrase it as "They also won the 2015 final, hosted in London."
- "The next Rugby World Cup will be hosted in Japan" – I think you also need to mention the year of final.
- Ref 1 – "Corporate designations such as "Ltd", "Inc" or "GmbH" are not usually included. Omit where the publisher's name is substantially the same as the name of the work." I think you should get rid of Guardian Media Group.
- Ref 8 and 16 – ditto: Independent Print Limited and Guardian Media Group, respectively.
I think wiki-linking the publishers of references on their first occurrences can help the readers with finding about them.(Sure that's a personal opinion which is why I "thought" it might benefit linking them)- I think is more personal choice than anything else. Some editors link the publishers others don't. There isn't a guideline about this, so I'm inclined to leave it the way it is. There's no benefit either way really.

I am re-nominating the 2008 Oscars for featured list because I believe it has great potential to become a Featured List. The previous nomination did not result in FL status, because I was unable to keep up with comments due to personal and education issues. I know there is still some concerns, but I will be updating the list within the next two weeks due to my winter break allowing me to make changes before school resumes on January 4. I also followed how the 1929, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 were written.

Source review – concerning the reliability and consistency of sources, I had provided my comments above, which are addressed. Using this version as a reference point for the numbering of the footnotes:
- Ref 2 – used twice. Article faithful to the source.
One thing needed is replace -- with —. - Ref 3 – used twice. Article faithful to the source.
- Ref 10 – used twice. Article faithful to the source.
- Ref 18 – used twice.
However, the source does not support the fact that she became the eleventh performer for double acting nominations. It only says it "made her the third double acting nominee of the decade". - Ref 30 – used twice. Article faithful to the source.
- Ref 31 – used twice. Article faithful to the source. -- Frankie talk 13:41, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lost in Translation is the second feature film from Sofia Coppola, a comedy-drama about the one-week-long relationship between an aging, lonely movie star (Bill Murray) and an intelligent recent college graduate in an unhappy marriage (Scarlett Johansson) in a Tokyo hotel.

- Thanks again, Parutakupiu for your comments, and many thanks NapHit for stepping in and doing some editing while I haven't been. I've made a couple of small changes in the lead for flow. I have changed it back to "were obliged" as "The teams obliged to enter" would make some sense and it is how I naturally read it without the additional "were". Finally, I disagree that the riders don't represent their countries (they do, for example win points in the World Tour rankings for their countries), but I'm content with the edit.

- Source review
- Formatting wise, everything looks pretty spot on. With a fine-tooth comb, I have found that the capitalisation of refs #145 (Pier Paolo De Negri rather than Pier Paolo De negri) and #174 (Nathan Brown rather than nathan Brown) are slightly off.
- I don't see any mention in ref #1 of the route entering France and Switzerland? I know Lugano is in Switzerland, so that can be extrapolated, but France? (This article suggests that only Switzerland is visited, though I appreciate there was plenty of time for things to be changed in between.)
- Refs #238 and #239 could do with some disambiguation, maybe "Giro d'Italia 2015 – General Classification – Startlist" and "Giro d'Italia 2015 – General Classification – Stages"?
Otherwise, everything looks good: the prose is well paraphrased, without any evidence of copyvio, and with the exception of the point above, the facts are all well cited to reliable sources. Harrias talk 09:46, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- "He ended the year with three more five-wicket hauls—coming in consecutive innings—against South Africa and Sri Lanka." => "He ended the year with three more five-wicket hauls, which came in consecutive innings against South Africa and Sri Lanka."
- "ODI" is introduced in the final paragraph of the lead but it has not been mentioned before and the abbreviation is not explained or linked. It should probably be written out in full here, although obviously it is OK to then use the abbreviation in the next sentence.
- "He took five wickets for 47 runs in the match which his team won by 145 runs" => "He took five wickets for 47 runs in the match, which his team won by 145 runs" - a bit picky but there you go ;-)

Comments from Relentlessly
In general this looks good. One or two small things:
I've also taken a good look through the sources and the sourcing looks excellent. It's a pity that such a vast majority of links are to one website, but I understand that Cricinfo is canonical. On a broader subject, I do wonder if a little more context to Shakib's career could be offered. He's been described as "Bangladesh’s greatest-ever cricketer" ([12]) and has been ranked as the top all-rounder in every form of international cricket ([13]). These feel relevant to a description of him as a cricketer, although I recognise that they aren't specifically relevant to five-wicket hauls. Relentlessly (talk) 10:47, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keith Floyd caused something of a revolution in British cookery broadcasting. From the mid-1980s he entertained and excited his viewers (his "gastronauts", as he used to call us) on food we'd ignored or forgotten. He is someone who changed the way food programmes were presented on British television, and had a large impact on international channels too. His food writing is superb, showing a deep love of food, an understanding in the importance of the locality of produce, and a desire to inform and entertain his readers. This list has been split off from the biographical article, increased, carries citations and now stands as a solid piece of work in its own right. All constructive comments and criticisms are welcome. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 20:07, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments from Miyagawa
-
- The one thing that jumps out at me is that his one man stage production, Floyd Uncorked: The Life of a Bon Viveur, isn't listed.
- Too bad there isn't a suitable infobox. I dug around and found Template:Infobox author bibliography, thinking initially that you could use the optional sections to list the television series etc. But then heading it up with "Releases" by default wouldn't make any sense so I wouldn't suggest using it.
- Very pleased to see this listed - Floyd and Alan Whicker were two major influences on me growing up and made me want to travel everywhere. I still remember lying in front of the TV watching Far Flung Floyd and dreaming of the day that I'll get to be canoed around a floating market somewhere in the far east. I'll get around to it eventually. Miyagawa (talk) 17:39, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Many thanks Miyagawa - a new section now added referring to the show. Sadly not much in the way of detail, but that's part of the nature of the production, I think. Thanks for your thoughts. - SchroCat (talk) 10:33, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Nominator(s): Godot13 (talk) 04:01, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am nominating this for featured list because it covers a lesser known aspect of the space program and the realm of space-flown memorabilia. Considered numismatic in nature (specifically exonumia), the practice of creating mission-specific space-flown medallions began with the Gemini Program and have been a part of the Apollo, Skylab, Space Shuttle, and International Space Station missions. All but the Gemini program flights have been struck for NASA by the Robbins Company.--Godot13 (talk) 04:01, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Drive-by note: I kind of take issue with the article title; it is very specific about "Robbins" "Apollo" missions, but the list itself has a big section on the Gemini non-Robbins medallions. I get that you're cutting off the list before the Skylab/Space Shuttle medallions, but the name doesn't match what you have here. And the Robbins bit is unnecessary; you're really talking about the "official" medallions, which were made by Robbins for the Apollo missions, but that's covered by the "NASA" qualifier. Maybe NASA space-flown Gemini and Apollo medallions? --PresN 17:57, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Pres- Thanks for the drive by comment. I understand what you are saying. There are a few issues with the name change. There were other medallions (odds and ends) that flew on one mission or another and the regulation of those objects was not well documented. The reason Gemini was included in a list about Robbins medallions is based on the near complete lack of information about their origin, minting process, etc. which would make them virtually impossible to stand alone in a list/article. I suppose the "NASA" qualifier could cover the legitimacy of the Robbins and Fliteline medallions. With respect, I'd like to hear from another reviewer or two about the potential title change, but if there is a consensus for it, I have no issue making the change. Thanks again.--Godot13 (talk) 22:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comments:
- The name of the article sounds a bit fork-y. Any alternatives you could think of to make it sound more impactful to a wider audience?
- I don’t think it resembles other existing titles in the space program but I’m happy to re-work it in conjunction with some of the concerns raised below (mainly about expanding the scope of the list).
- Why are provenance entries hidden in footnotes?
- They can be spelled out if you prefer.
- To me that seems to make more sense. Nergaal (talk) 08:17, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Done--Godot13 (talk) 09:15, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- To me that seems to make more sense. Nergaal (talk) 08:17, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I think a hidden legend for provenance would be useful for non-specialists. When I think of provenance I think of who manufactured it not who received it.
- Provenance for collectibles and artworks generally denote the prior ownership of the object. In the case of these medallions, provenance accounts for a significant amount of the value. Also, I’m not quite sure what a hidden legend is…
- I was thinking of {{[[Template:|]]}}. Nergaal (talk) 08:17, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Done (slightly differently)... linked column title to description. Is that okay?--Godot13 (talk) 01:16, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- same for flown/struck
Again, not quite sure what a hidden legend is…- Information added to ref note, visible when hovering). Could not make hover work...--Godot13 (talk) 01:16, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- what is "Fliteline"?
- The article is not very clear what it exactly means; is a label notable/reputable enough to be worth mentioning? Nergaal (talk) 08:17, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- It is noteworthy as the only name associated with the maker of the the first space-flown commemorative medallions (for the Gemini missions). I put them in this article because it makes this article stronger versus having one solid article (Apollo) and one weaker (Gemini). There are also hundreds of auction records all attributing the Gemini medallions to Fliteline.--Godot13 (talk) 04:16, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- The article is not very clear what it exactly means; is a label notable/reputable enough to be worth mentioning? Nergaal (talk) 08:17, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- "It is unconfirmed" => "it is unclear"?
- Fixed
- intro does not discuss at all the first two sections, and they are not very well represented by the title.
- I will work on expanding the intro to include them. As for the title, removing specific reference to Robbins opens to the door to several other short-lived medallion ideas that never lasted longer than a flight or two, but I’ll give it some more thought (per above).
- at least two medallions are golden, and it is not obvious why
- Two of the Fliteline medallions are gold-colored because the images were significantly better than any of the available silver-colored medallions for the same missions
- nvm then
- Two of the Fliteline medallions are gold-colored because the images were significantly better than any of the available silver-colored medallions for the same missions
- how come some were auctioned? maybe the auctioned value could be mentioned in the table?
- All were auctioned. There is a brief section discussing collecting and auction results but I didn’t think it was wise to put a single value for a particular mission medallion as factors like condition, auction year, and provenance significantly affect the value (double or triple the price), and therefore it may not be representative of the prices in general. Nergaal- Thanks for taking the time to make comments, other than those items I said I would address, please let me know if my answers are satisfactory.--Godot13 (talk) 00:39, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, I completely missed that last section. The reason I was/am confused is that the section before says that the astronauts were barred from auctioning them, so to me it is not obvious how did they eventually get to be auctioned. Nergaal (talk) 08:17, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- No problem. Part of the NASA concern for profit came from a scandal involving postal covers (stamped commemorative cards) being sold by some astronauts to a stamp dealer. It led to Congressional hearings and some very strict policies afterwards. There is no way that these auctions could take place if the initial NASA policies were still in place (or enforced).--Godot13 (talk) 04:16, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments – I have to confess that I'm disappointed that this list hasn't generated more commentary to this point. It's highly unique among candidates, and I think we should encourage such nominations whenever possible. To back up my words, I'll offer some thoughts:
Overall, it's a fascinating piece of work. If by chance this does get archived eventually, I hope to see it back here at some point. Hopefully, that won't be necessary, and these suggestions may be helpful if you want to avoid that scenario. Giants2008 (Talk) 02:50, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Support – I checked the reference and the prose is readable if one focuses, although it would be nice if alternate references were provided; also, you could try older archived versions from a few years ago to see if one of them reads better. Still, since the content is verifiable, I won't insist on replacement refs being provided. Overall, this appears to be a fine piece of work and I think it's worthy of attracting more reviews.

- The intro currently only covers the background. It should contain stuff like x Gemini missions got medallions, and all the y Apollo missions did. In total, over z and w medallions were flown, and medallion v was auctioned in 19xy for $u. Also, provenance is still a bit too much of a jargon currently; what does "Presented to Wally Schirra by Neil Armstrong." mean? Armstrong gave it to Wally? Why? Nergaal (talk) 20:58, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Nergaal- I'm doing some minor tweaking, but I like what you did with the lead. I have yet to find a solid image of each SL medallion I like, but I will keep looking to add in the future.

- The list looks good, but I am still confused with the provenance. 440 medallions were flown in Apollo 11 and gifted? Or one was flown and then gifted, and then 439 copies made in advance were given to other people related to NASA? Nergaal (talk) 22:12, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Nergaal- The provenance is only for the illustrated/pictured medallion. In the number flown column, if there is only a single number, not in parentheses, that was the total number struck and flown. In some cases, not all the struck medallions could be flown, so the numbers indicate (total struck) and out of that number how many were actually flown.--Godot13 (talk) 01:57, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- So if 440 were flown, 1 was presented to Schirra and the others were given to others? Nergaal (talk) 04:45, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Correct. Either given (by a purchaser) or purchased. Astronauts would pre-order with the flight office. I'm guessing there were no "extras" at the end of a mission.

Comments by PresN
Doffing my delegate hat to review this list; it's not at the bottom of the pile yet but I like to see non-standard lists when they come through.
- Oh man, that first sentence kills me with the nested asides, and it leaves the verb hanging around on its own. I thin it would sound better as "NASA space-flown Gemini and Apollo medallions were mission-specific commemorative medallions—often astronaut-designed—which were approved by NASA and carried aboard the mission spacecraft into orbit."
- sentence replaced
- Link Gemini in the lead
- done
- Do not italicize Fliteline in the lead; italics are not used for emphasis
- fixed
- The lead should mention the non-flown Apollo 1 medallion
in progressdone
- Both the lead and the text should mention that Apollo 7 was the first manned Apollo mission, thus explaining why 2-6 didn't get one
in progress
- "other Mercury astronauts, and support staff becoming a short snorter" -> "other Mercury astronauts, and support staff, becoming short snorters"
- done
- I don't feel that an inline link to an image like "signed by him" is appropriate; it violates the guideline that links should not surprise the reader with where they go. If you want you can just stick the image above the other signed bill image on the right, even though it will extend down past the section: there's plenty of whitespace
- done
- "placed by astronauts and support crew personnel.[26][25]" - refs out of order
- fixed
- "bound by their employment contract not to commercialize the medallions[28]" - references shouldn't be in the middle of sentences without at least being after punctuation.
- fixed
- "One (or more) of the astronauts from the flight crew would work directly with the Robbins Company" - tense shift, should be "worked directly with"
- fixed
- "were struck in sterling silver.[29] but it is unclear whether serial numbers were added pre or post-flight." - sentence fragment. Whole combined sentence should be "The medallions were struck in sterling silver two to three months prior to the scheduled mission, though it is unclear whether serial numbers were added pre or post-flight.[29]". On that note, I'd like to point out that you have a tendency to have twisted sentences where you have a phrase starting off the sentence with the bit it attaches to coming later on; this can add a bit of flavor to the writing but you kind of overdo it, especially for encyclopedic writing. You actually do it with every sentence in this paragraph- you have a prepositional phrase setting off every sentence, with the verb they belong to several words later.
- fixed the specific example above and several other instances in the paragraph
- "Since 1995 there have been over 500 auction appearances (internet and/or live)" - cleaner as "Since 1995 there have been over 500 internet or live auction appearances"
- done
- It also might be nice to start off that sentence with "Despite the NASA prohibition on commercializing the medallions,"
- done
- Footnote 9 is missing a period
- fixed
- It would be nice to have ISBNs for all of the books
in progressdone, but re: Relics by Still, no ISBN could be found

Twelve Lists of Sites of Special Scientific Interest in British counties are FLs. Almost all were passed in 2006-8, and in my view the fields chosen were not always the most helpful for readers. I have deleted designation date as this will be of interest to very few readers, and added columns for the Natural England information pages (which were previously references), photographs and access. The other designations column was added before I started working on the article. Dudley Miles (talk) 09:57, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Rodw Another interesting list - just a few comments/questions:
I'm not sure that everything included in "Other designations" should be called "designations". The AONB, GCR, LNR, NNR, RHPG & SM are formally recognised by government agencies or quangos with statutory roles, whereas NT, RSPB, WT & WTBCN presumably represent the organisations which own or manage the sites, but don't have statutory powers. I'm not sure about NCR.
- Yes this has occurred to me. Whoever started putting in the other designations column used it as a ragbag. I don't think GCR and NCR are official designations - they indicate that the site was listed in authoritative works called Geological Conservation Review and Nature Conservation Review in the 1990s which are mentioned in SSSI citations. RSPB and WTBCN mean managed by the organisation. NT and WT mean (so far as I know) owned by the organisation but not necessarily managed by it. I cannot think of a better heading and I am reluctant to delete useful information. Any suggestions?
- Maybe "Other designations, owners and managers" in the key but that gets a bit long for the column header.— Rod talk 21:29, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- How about "Other classifications"?
- That would work for me.— Rod talk 17:39, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In the location column I'm glad you have included both Lat & Long & Grid Ref; however I would have used <br> to put the grid ref onto a third line to make the column narrower - minor and not covered by the criteria.
- I am not clear where to put <br> as it comes out on the third line on both the computers I have checked. Can you advise where I should put it in {{gbmappingitem|TL088298|51.956|-0.418|name=Barton Hills}}
- I haven't used Template:Gbmappingitem and have always entered them as separate items - it probably comes out as two lines for me because I use wide screens.— Rod talk 21:29, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I am not sure the change is necessary if narrower screens make it three lines, but I will change it to be the same as List of local nature reserves in Somerset if you think it would be helpful. What do you think?
- No its not necessary. As I put in my original comment "minor and not covered by the criteria".— Rod talk 17:39, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yelden redirects to Yielden - any particular reasons for the choice of this version of the name?
- It is Yelden on the SSSI citation - and on road signs in the area. I thought it would avoid confusion to use the same spelling rather than the alternative one in the Wiki article.
If you sort by area there is a problem that 130.9 & 148.4 come before 16.4
- It is sorting on the first digit and I cannot work out why. I have posted a request for help on the convert talk page.
- PS An editor has kindly fixed the problem.
- wasn't aware you could add |sortable to the convert template either.~~
I'm sure we have discussed this previously but you have capitalised National Nature Reserve in the link to National nature reserves in Bedfordshire and the general usage (eg National nature reserve (United Kingdom)) is lower case
- We have discussed this several times. NE consistently capitalises whereas Wiki is inconsistent - Site of Special Scientific Interest but National nature reserve. I think it is better to follow NE rather than have one line capitalised and another not depending on the vagaries of Wiki usage.
- I see the list is already has inconsistent capitalisation as LNR is shown as Local nature reserve so I have changed NNR similarly.
- But now we have capilatised "National Nature Reserves" in the lead & lower case "National nature reserve" in the key (it also has a comma which the other don't).— Rod talk 17:39, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed. Dudley Miles (talk) 18:13, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ref 6 Natural England list does have a publisher/accessdate
- Fixed.
Refs 19 & 20 "Dunstable Downs and the Whipsnade Estate" from NT both point to the same document with slightly different titles - why?
- Fixed.
Refs 24 & 25 "Galley and Warden Hills SSSI" point to the same document
- Fixed.
Ref 28 "KENSWORTH CHALK PIT" is capitalised
- Fixed.
Ref 44 (Totternhoe Knolls) has a stray ~ before the reference

- Think the last sentence in the third paragraph could do with a reference
- There is no reference. I just counted up the number of sites in each local authority area. I can delete is this is OR.
- Should be ok thinking about it, as each site is individually cited anyway. NapHit (talk) 14:17, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I see the first row of the table has rowscopes, the rest need them as well to meet MOS:DTT and WP:ACCESS

Support – At first reading I was surprised to see external links from the last column to citations, but this makes good sense and is easier for the reader to follow (one click rather than the two clicks if the links were banished to the references section). Moreover there are ample precedents for external links from tables in Featured Lists on SSSIs (here, here and here). Very pleased to support the promotion of this page to FL.

Following on from the 2015 Rugby World Cup, I've decided to tak it upon myself to improve this list. After cleaning up the list I now believe it meets the criteria and is ready to be scrutinised by the community. One question I do have of reviewers is whether drop goals should be included in the list. Four players have scored a hat-trick of drop goals during RWC matches and I'm not 100% sure whether they should be included. Cheers. NapHit (talk) 19:39, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:
- I think the definition of a hat-trick needs a reference in this case, as I do not think it is very obvious why dopgoals should count
- I don't think a reference is necessary, the terms of hat-trick are defined in the lead. I also don't see how its not obvious why drop goals would count. If a player scores three in a match it's a hat-trick by default. NapHit (talk) 21:24, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Currently, the hat-trick article specifically refers only to tries. By your rationale penalty takers would get hat-tricks essentially every game. Right now your definition looks like OR. Nergaal (talk) 21:29, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- the table feels unreferenced
- It's referenced by the two general refs NapHit (talk) 21:24, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- No it is not. The the reference refers strictly to tries/drops, not to 2+1 or 1+2 scenarios. And you can easily explicitly put the reference link in the |+ line of the table
- I think this is a matter of taste, the table is referenced by the general refs, to say otherwise is stupid. A 2+1 scenario would not be a hat-trick, it refers to 3 of one method, there is no reference to anyone that scored 2+1 or 1+2 and it being referred to as a hat-trick.

- Replied further @Nergaal: NapHit (talk) 12:24, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- The ref you put in specifically says HT of drop-goals. I think for the sake of clarity it would be much better to split the large table into tries and drop-goals. Also, there is no reference saying that 3 conversions or 3 penalties do not count as hat-tricks. Nergaal (talk) 19:21, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Hmmm, I'm not sure splitting the table is a good move. We have the markers indicating which ones were drop goals and there has only been four. I think it should stay as it is. You never here 3 conversions or penalties referred to as hat-tricks, it's just tries and drop goals as they come from open play. Look at any rugby match report where a players has 3 penalties or conversions, they're never referred to as hat-tricks. NapHit (talk) 10:36, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- But a hat-trick of drop goals is extremely rare IMHO compared to a "regular" hat-trick. Nergaal (talk) 22:43, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I completely agree a hat-trick of drop goals is a rare feat, I just don't think this warrants there being separate tables for each. I think the way it is now works well and allows the reader to sort all hat-tricks together, which is more useful than having two separate tables. NapHit (talk) 19:05, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm bringing yet another one of these to FLC, following my other similar successes at FLC. For those who don't know, Bowman Creek is a 26-mile-long tributary of the Susquehanna River in Luzerne and Wyoming Counties, Pennsylvania. It's also a regionally famous trout stream and many of its 26 named tributaries are also very high-quality trout streams. In short, it's a pretty pristine stream system and I was fortunate enough to photograph most of the tributaries during the height of autumn colors. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 01:05, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comments by Dudley
- "It has 26 named tributaries, including 21 direct tributaries and 5 sub-tributaries.[1] These include nineteen runs, six creeks, and one hollow (an unnamed stream named after a named valley that it flows through)." This is confusing. In the first sentence 21+5=26, but "including" implies that there are more than 26. The same applies to the second sentence and I would delete "including" in both. Also if an unnamed stream is named then it is not unnamed.
- Changed to It has 26 named tributaries, of which 21 are direct tributaries and 5 are sub-tributaries
- "(an unnamed stream named after a named valley that it flows through)." This is contradictory. A stream named a valley is not unnamed. Also the last "named" is unnecessary repetition - if a stream is named after a valley then the valley must have been named. Dudley Miles (talk) 16:17, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Pennsylvania stream nomenclature can be strange, but they really are unnamed. To quote the source (see the bottom of the first page), In order to name as many as possible of the nearly 64,000 streams identified in the Straem File, many unnamed streams that flow through named hollows were included as named streams, using the hollow name, e.g. "Dark Hollow".. I've tweaked the text to be a bit less jarring and repetitive. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 01:46, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- No source is given for the second half of the first paragraph.
- Citations are not really needed, since it only summarizes the tables.
- "7.2-and-7.7-mile" I am no expert on Wikipedia rules on dashes but the ones before and after "and" look odd to me.
- This is what the {{convert|7.2|and|7.7|mi|km|adj=on}} produces, so I'm assuming that it's correct.
- I do not see the necessity for the frequent use of the word "named". It is obviously required in "It has 26 named tributaries", but why is it required afterwards?
- It's only used twice after the first usage. I removed one, but it has to stay in A total of ten named streams in the watershed of Bowman Creek are classified by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission as Class A Wild Trout Waters. because there is actually one unnamed stream that's Class A Wild Trout Waters.
- "High-Quality Coldwater Fishery" and "Exceptional Value waters". It would be helpful to link these terms or at least explain how they differ. Is the second a grade down from the first?
- The first is actually a grade down from the second. In any case, there's nothing to link to, but I've been meaning to make articles on those, so perhaps now would be a good time for me to do so.
- I think the higher graded category should be named first, and you should state that High-Quality Coldwater Fishery is a grade down. Dudley Miles (talk) 16:17, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Done (well, actually I stated that Exceptional Value is a grade up). --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 01:46, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- No change needed as the problem is not in this article but I got confused following the links for river mile and mouth. Mouth seems clear - it is where the tributary joins the main stream. River mile says it is the distance from the mouth, but mouth in the river mile article links to delta, which is presumably wrong?
- That link is rather odd. I fixed it.
- Sugar Run is listed as both a tributary and a sub-tributary. To avoid confusion, I would suggest a comment on the fact that two different tributaries have the same name.
- The "tributary to" column does explain that Sugar Run (Marsh Creek) is a tributary of Marsh Creek, while Sugar Run (Bowman Creek) is in the main table, so perhaps it's not all that confusing?
- There are no references for watershed area and mouth coordinates.
- Strange. I must've forgotten to put them in. Done.
- Are source coordinates not available?
- Not from the GNIS, which only gives one official coordinate. The official coordinates are always near the mouth, hence mouth coordinates.
- No change needed but the picture of Bownman Creek appears to show it with much less water than several of its tributaries. Why is this? Time of year?
- I think it's just a coincidence, because they were all taken within two days of each other. A lot of the pictures from further downstream show more water.
- This looks like a good list but some of it needs referencing to meet FL standard. Dudley Miles (talk) 21:27, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- A tributary isn't the same thing as a fork. But seriously, there was enough interest to promote List of tributaries of Catawissa Creek over your complaint, which pretty clearly shows others disagree. Doug Weller (talk) 13:13, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I think Nergaal is describing this article as a content fork, not describing the tributaries as forks in the river :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:02, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Looks good, I added a link to a map at the bottom of the page, I hope this is ok. If you don't find it useful please delete. Most of the changes I made to the previous list are already made here, so I can't see anything else to add. Very nice article. Support Mattximus (talk) 19:15, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hot on the heals of Healy's list, I present the other Ireland top international scorer list. As always, your time and energy in contributing to the process is much appreciated. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:43, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comments: Me again! I am almost tempted to tell you: just transpose most of what you have on Healy's page to this one and you're fine. But, I'll follow common featured candidacy protocol instead and give you my (non-copyediting-related) comments:
The lead image does not have alt text.To be consistent with the table layout in Healy's list, I'd center-align the content in the "Cap", "Score", and "Result" columns.Add to the "Statistics" section hatnote an explanation of what the "Score" column indicates.Move the statistics source citation tag to the end of the caption of each table.Now that I look at it: why not adding also the also appearances to the by-competition table? If you do, don't forget to update the caption accordingly.If possible, wikilink (at least) the first instances of thenewspaper
/website
and/orpublisher
parameters in citations, as they appear on the reference list.- Colonies Chris will just unlink them in due course though... The Rambling Man (talk) 20:51, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ref. 7 has some problems. Also, can you format ref. 8 with a citation template?
I think it's better to let other reviewers post their comments before attempting some copyediting on the lead. That's it for now. Parutakupiu (talk) 20:48, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Parutakupiu Ok, addressed or responded to your comments above, thanks for taking the time again to look at this. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:47, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- The Rambling Man, I've also performed a quick copyediting of the lead and tweaked the format of a few references. Please, check if the changes are OK for you. Nonetheless, I'm happy to support this candidate. Parutakupiu (talk) 14:16, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:
- From an image review perspective both images are properly licenced though the lede image still has no alt text.
- Alt text added. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:47, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Citations look fine with Checlinks though several BBC links are redirects but they do preserve the link, so are only a very minor issue that could be easily fixed. I fixed citation 7 that had errors.
- Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:47, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Personally I would prefer to see many fewer wikilinks in the tables, per WP:OVERLINK even though repeated links are permitted they really don't help the reader understand the topic; 22 Lansdowne Road and 44 Dublin links is just too much. Even just linking the first instance where there are multiple instance would be so much better IMHO.
- I understand the concern. I am just trying to be consistent, not just internally, but across similar articles. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:47, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's about all I can offer you but I like it. ww2censor (talk) 12:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
- "in which he scored a hat-trick against the Faroes for the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification." for the doesn't read right to me, perhaps during?
- ref 9 is not formatted properly, no accessdate. Also can it be considered a reliable source?
- I don't know, it was there before I edited the list and uses a template {{NFT player}}, it isn't needed so I've removed it. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:52, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good otherwise. NapHit (talk) 09:33, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Cheers for the comments, both addressed. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:52, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Happy to Support now. Great work. NapHit (talk) 23:02, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support on prose and style. Just two quibbles about referencing:
- (Pedantic!), but Ref 2, 9 and 11 are BBC News articles, its Sport page didn't launch until 2000.
- Publish date for Ref 33? Lemonade51 (talk) 04:10, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- The BBC refs do work and are online dates as stated and are listed under news not a specific sports section. However, sometimes the first click does not load the pages, but when you hit the reload button, the url works. I have dated ref 33. ww2censor (talk) 11:03, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Cheers both. The BBC website isn't behaving particularly well for me this morning. 2, 9 and 11 now published by BBC News. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:08, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
