- Support -- Previous issues resolved; article meets WP:WIAFL.--Truco 15:34, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support, Could the table be split so AL and NL winners are split as this would look better and make the list easier to read and understand. This my view it would be interesting what you think, this does not affect my support. It will be a normal support if you state good reason for not following my suggestion or do adopt the idea as i think it is a potential issue in my opinion.02blythed (talk) 21:55, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd like some other opinions on this before I make the change. It sounds workable, but I'm not sure. iMatthew : Chat 22:34, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't really think that's necessary IMO. I've seen it done in other lists but this one is a bit shorter so I think one table best presents the content.--Truco 18:50, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As i said it was only a suggestion if others do not agree then i fully support the nomination. 02blythed (talk) 22:39, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Is the Baseball Almanac reference necessary? We aren't really sure about its reliability as a source; it's been debated a lot, and it doesn't verify anything independently.
- Done, except the source is needed, and as far as I know is reliable. iMatthew : Chat 15:14, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Why is it needed? It's always paired with another source, and if it's unreliable, it can't be used in featured content. KV5 (Talk • Phils) 15:33, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments –
- "The Hank Aaron Award is given annually to the Major League Baseball players selected who are the top hitter in each league." Change to "selected as the top hitter in each league." Also place the MLB initials in parenthesis.
- To avoid ending the second sentence with a number, try "surpassing Babe Ruth's career mark of 714 home runs."
- "via MLB's official website, MLB.com website." Remove second "website"?
- "with broadcasters' and analysts' votes accounted for the other 70%." "with" → "while" to ensure proper tense and the best possible sentence structure.
- Barry Bonds is linked twice in the third paragraph. Giants2008 (17-14) 23:25, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Done, everything. iMatthew : Chat (Review Me) 12:02, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
