Currently, I've another nomination open at FLC which has three supports, so I think there wouldn't be a problem with this one. This list was created by User:Lugnuts, so gets a co-nomination here (This is his first FLC, if I'm not wrong). I mainly worked on the lead portion of the list. I hereby invite all the reviewers for comments/suggestions. Regards, Zia Khan 16:25, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. Yes, this is my first ever FLC. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 17:42, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

*Comments from Crisco 1492
Comment regarding 4 for eleven (&c) I'm reasonably ambivalent to this, but cricket has its own way of doing things, and yes, "4 cats and 3 dogs" vs "4 days and seven hedgehogs" etc. For me, in cricket matches I've watched, been involved in, even scored for, I would always see runs and wickets in numerical format. It may not be the way to interpret WP:MOS but I would always use 4 for 7, 3 for 121, etc (or if you're Australian, 103 for 2, 44 for 3 etc.....)

"with a Win-loss percentage of 61.05." "Win-loss" → "win–loss", with the lower-case word and en dash. This applies elsewhere in the lead as well.In the key and table headings, shouldn't "Team/s" be presented as "Team(s)" with parentheses, or is this some Indian standard that I am unaware of?The second half of the range in reference 3 is missing.Giants2008 (Talk) 22:21, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Another cricket centuries list. This is based on all of those that have gone before, with hopefully a combination of the best of each. The Chanderpaul article is a little on the short side at the moment (just over 2,000 words of prose), but I am in the process of expanding it, so I don't think there should be an issue with this seeming like an unnecessary content fork. I currently have another FLC open, Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/2009 Women's Cricket World Cup squads/archive1, but the issues there have been resolved, and it has the support of three users, so I hope the community accepts this nomination. This is a joint nomination, as we both (coincidentally) starting working on this at the same time. Harrias talk 16:12, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support. A good list. Dudley Miles (talk) 21:53, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Disclaimer: I have contributed to this article in its early form. I have read it and believe it meets FL standards at this point. I have a few comments that do not need to be addressed for my support as they are just suggestions.
- Can the subtotal rows be coloured slightly different? Even a grey similar to what is found in the Ontario page would be great.
- Done Turns out we need to use "!" rather than "|" to change the sortbottom rows to the same darker grey as the top row. Hwy43 (talk) 20:08, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- "enacted at the provincial level by Queen Elizabeth II on the advice and consent of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba" sounds a little strange. Is the fact that the Queen signed off on it a notable fact? Isn't it just a technicality that doesn't matter terribly much? The way it's written it sounds like it was the Queen's idea.
Mattximus (talk) 19:16, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Done It is based on the wording from the sources, but we know that it is the lieutenant governers who represent the Queen, so I've revised it to reflect that. Hwy43 (talk) 20:08, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Astle is one of the greatest one-day players to emerge from New Zealand. As of now, he is the only cricketer from New Zealand in the list of players with 25+ centuries at the international level. Look forward to your comments. —Vensatry (Ping me) 18:42, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: for me, at the moment, this is a clear 3(b) violation. The parent article on Nathan Astle is short, with less than 1,000 words of prose, and actually contains a version of this list (albeit a poor one). This demonstrates to me that at the moment, this list should make up part of that article, and not be a stand-alone list. Harrias talk 20:56, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Reply 27 centuries are good enough to have a stand alone article. The prose (readable) size is over 5000 chars, and not 1000 chars as mentioned by you. When an article like Abdul Qadir (cricketer), which is half the size of Astle's article can have a stand alone sub page, I think this is admissible. —Vensatry (Ping me) 05:20, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I said 1,000 words, rather than characters, so my statement was correct. And I agree, the Abdul Qadir list should not have been promoted: a merge should probably be carried out to put the list into the parent article. Harrias talk 06:49, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Opposeagree with Harrias, there's no need for a content fork yet. If Astle's article was three times the size, it may be okay, but right now, this could easily fit into the main article. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:37, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I request the FLC directors to give me some time. I'm in the process of expanding the parent article, and once I'm done with that I'll revert back. —Vensatry (Ping me) 12:20, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The prose size now stands at close to 12k chars with 2000+ words. I feel this should be enough for a player who has played 81 Tests and 223 ODIs. —Vensatry (Ping me) 18:08, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- @The Rambling Man: Would you reassess your vote now that the main article has been expanded? Thanks. — ΛΧΣ21 04:29, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

After a black day for Pakistan cricket, now they have 105 lost to their name in Test cricket. But no worries, they have defeated others 116 times in the same format. In ODIs Pakistan have a reasonable result in term of winning percentage. Pakistan have won more matches than any other team.

Support. A good list well presented. Dudley Miles (talk) 14:55, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from RadioKAOS: Right off the bat, the biggest issue I see: since these designations were made decades ago, how much of this information is presently outdated?
- I had previously pipe-linked "Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Refuge" to Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, but that doesn't quite tell the whole story. From Who's Who in Alaskan Politics:
While that explains that, it isn't explained that the name "Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Refuge" and accompanying land designation were both deprecated by the passage of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act in 1980.RHODE, Clarence J.<...>reg. dir., U.S. Fish & Wildlife, Juneau, 1948–58; killed in plane crash, Brooks Range, Aug. 21, 1958, accompanied by s. Jack and another passenger.<...>Kuskokwim Nat. Wildlife Refuge near Bethel renamed in his honor, 1960.
- Except that the "Clarence Rhode National Wildlife Refuge" was and still is designated as a National Natural Landmark, and is considered as such by the federal government. The name of the area before its designation doesn't matter. Dana boomer (talk) 14:37, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Similiarly, the statement about which landmarks are in or not in organized boroughs is false. The boundaries of Alaska's earliest borough's weren't finalized until the mid 1970s, so once again, you may be simply parroting information which is decades out of date. Lake George is within the corporate limits of the Municipality of Anchorage, an organized borough, although it's certainly a world away from Anchorage proper. Malaspina Glacier is within the City and Borough of Yakutat, also an organized borough. The thing is so freaking huge, though, that it quite possibly spills over into the Unorganized Borough (specifically, the Valdez–Cordova Census Area). Whenever I've looked up a feature on GNIS, it tells me which borough or census area the feature is located in. Little or none of this has been incorporated into the list.
- I've added borough information where boroughs have been created since the landmarks were designated. Where landmarks are located in wholly or partially in the Unorganized Borough (which is true for six of them), I've left the table alone. Dana boomer (talk) 14:37, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- On a related note, that table header is entitled "County", which needs to be changed. Alaska does not have counties and has never had counties. Perhaps "Borough or census area"? RadioKAOS – Talk to me, Billy 19:34, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I've changed this to "borough". Dana boomer (talk) 14:37, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, I would suggest that as you don't appear to have reviewed anyone else's nominations in the last six months, a less aggressive attitude would be in order. No-one here is getting paid to do these reviews, it is all voluntary, so it might be worth being nice to those you want to do something for you.

I am nominating this for featured list because it was a failed FLC and I think have now covered the objections raised. I have also put it through peer review. Dudley Miles (talk) 16:54, 11 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support: This is a well-prepared list, neatly presented with pleasing illustrations. I was somewhat surprised to find that there are over 60 nature reserves in an area so close to London. I looked at the list during its peer review stage and could find little wrong with it then. I note also that a lot of work has been done since the last foray into FLC. I only have a handful of further observations:
- London is well provided with green areas, and it is surprising how far the boroughs extend into the countryside. The list could easily be extended.
- Did the railways really "arrive in Barnet" only in the early 20th century? Pretty well all of the country was covered well before then
- I was not thinking when I cited this. I assume the author was referring to the development of the Northern Line, but I have deleted it.
- 39% seems a rather low "positive conservation management" figure. It appears to indicate that over 60% of the sites were not being managed "positively" – whatever that means in practice. Is this a point of concern, and if so should the concern be indicated?
- I do not have anything I can cite on this. My impression is that pretty well all the conservation work in Barnet was done in the 1990s, and since then the borough has lost interest, but Wikipedia is not the place for my impressions!
- Ref 9 seems formatted differently from the other Hewlett citations
- I am not sure of the best way to cite the whole work as opposed to specific pages. Perhaps I should give the full details of the book?
Otherwise, the list seems to be well worthy of featured status. Brianboulton (talk) 08:19, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks very much for your support. Dudley Miles (talk) 09:52, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I need to withdraw this nomination. My most important source, Greenspace Information for London, has refurbished its site barely a year after it went live and many of my references are now dead links. I have emailed them about this and I was told that the lack of redirects to the new pages was an oversight which they are rectifying, so I may be able to re-nominate in the future.Dudley Miles (talk) 09:15, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]- GiGL has pointed out a - fairly - easy way to update links, which I have now done.

Comments from —Vensatry (Ping me)
Bowling styles could be linked to Types of bowlers in cricketAny reasons for not including Inns. and Bowl avg. in the table?
—Vensatry (Ping me) 08:36, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Essentially just to stop the table from becoming too unwieldy, it is designed to be a bit of a quick reference, rather than an in-depth analysis. Harrias talk 15:43, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Leave Inns, but bowl avg. is definitely a significant parameter in these lists. The "stumpings" column hasn't got any significance here as it remains a null for most of the teams except Aus, Ind and Eng. You could merge both catches and stumpings in a single column and rename it accordingly and add a note. —Vensatry (Ping me) 16:04, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Simply put, I disagree. Merging catches and stumpings would mean the table wouldn't be sortable on stumpings, and while it may be a relatively minor statistic it is a very relevant one for wicket-keepers, and if the statistic is in the table, it should be sortable by. Bowling average in one-day cricket is actually, in my opinion, an unimportant statistic, economy and wickets taken give a much better summary of a bowler's performance. Harrias talk 16:30, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I never thought that way! you're right merging them would be a bad idea. List looks very fine.

Just out of curiosity this list would only include songs released on records/sound tracks right? It just seems odd since there are a fair few Phineas and Ferb songs missing from the list sung by Tisdale which would have had to obviously been recorded to be put into the episode. Just seems like something that stuck out to me. Since this is an unusual circumstance I'm not sure if there is any standard and I couldn't see any question of it on the talk page or not. --Lightlowemon (talk) 03:10, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The various types of single releases are unsourced. Adabow (talk) 22:55, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Done. They are sourced now. I didn't do it before because I've read some other featured list of songs like Katy Perry, Adele and Rihanna and any of them had the singles releases sourced and I was like "Well, maybe we don't need it because discographies don't source the singles either", that's why.
